No, there weren 't fabulous prizes or thousands of dollars to be won, but, school spirit was at its all-time high. The crowd was really hyper that night, said Eric Harris. For the Royalty candidates the evening was filled with excited laughter, but nervous smiles. Finally, the crowning moment arrived. Marie O'dell was crowned the queen and Mike Wilber, the king. To top off the winter sports season, the Literary Society sponsored a Beach Party. Despite the lack of sand or ocean, the beach balls flew and the dance was a success. The kids arrived attired in Jams and T-shirts-some sporting bathing suits underneath. The music was pro vided by Power-95 's D..l., Charlie Knight. Ev- erybody danced to tunes from the 50's to the 80's-the Beach Boys being no exep- tion. The winter months were a blast , thanks to these events. f jf, ,ie N ls 'lv ' , Z g 1 M, Debi Lenz, Kari Porter, and Rachel Stotts are all happy to be accompanied by their fathers.

The evening was filled with allusions as to Who dunnit and how. New twists were added as two more characters were knocked off by the unknown killer. Could it be the so- phisticated Lady Riverdale Cplayed by senior Amy Duffj ? or perhaps it was the beautiful, but nosy, report- er from Elite magazine. I thought the butler did it, said senior Sabra Greason. lt's always the butler. During intermission, the guests of the Second An- nual Dinner Theater were able to make their guesses and participate in a drawing. The winner was an- nounced after the play's conclusion. A The play pro ved to be quite an experience for the cast. A couple of scenes had to be carefully choreogra- phed in order to give the desired comic effect. The hardest part for me was trying not to laugh on stage during the performances, said senior Melinda Lein C who played the reporter, Margaret Daniels Q. Director Barbara .lewell claimed the most exciting part . . . was the final performance. The cast was ad-libbing much more and it was a lot of fun to watch. Six weeks of rehearsals paid off. It was difficult to work around the busy schedules of the cast mem- bers, said Jewell. lt was more organized than past productions because the cast wasn 't running around getting furniture at the last minute, said senior Brad Musgrove. We had prop committees that were in charge of organization, so I had more time to concen- trate on my character. Eventually, the mystery was solved and the cur- tain closed.
