18 Fall Drama Eeek . . . Listen to all that commotion! Sounds as if the ceiling is gonna cave in. Omi- gosh! My teeth won ' t stop ch . . ch . . chattering! What am I gonna do? I can ' t get up on that stage now. Not in front of a million glaring eyes. Knowing me, I ' ll mess up everything. I can just see myself coming in through the wrong entrance and tripping over someone. Maybe if I’m lucky I can make a fast exit out the backdoor. Oh no! There is my cue. Heavens to Betsy, what’ll I do? As the curtains parted re- vealing the elaborate decor of an English vicar’s residence, the beginnings of a heated ar- gument began to erupt. Outra- geously mad that the vicar ' s wife, junior Blair Barkal, had taken it upon herself to deco- rate the church ' s pulpit; the old maid, junior Marianne Lan- man, has it out with Reverend Toop, sophomore Jim Sczepa- niak, in Drama Club ' s fall pro- duction See How They Run.” The hilarious comedy which centers around the mys- tery of who is who, exagger- ates the confusion caused by the presence of four men dressed as clergymen when only two are the real ones. After endless hours of mo- notonous practice, the play was presented November 12 and 13 to an overwhelmingly large crowd. Both perfor- mances had an unexpected large crowd. According to di- rector Mrs. Renee Kouris, ju- nior English teacher, the play went rather well, the cast was at ease, and the audience really seemed to be enjoying themselves. As the final curtain started to close, weeks of rehearsals and last minute jitters came to an end. Pheew! I guess it wasn’t that bad after all. And just think, I was gonna sneak out the back exit! TOP: SHOCKED. After seeing her husband in another woman ' s arms, junior Blair Barkal faints and is carried to the sofa by senior Scott Gruoner and junior Judson Strain. ABOVE: NO WA Y. Unwilling to cover for him, junior Blair Barkal refuses to identify senior Mike Young as her husband.

“Those junior girls don ' t know what they’re doing! We ' ll show them how to play foot- ball! Seniors will win again!” Such conversation and last minute pep talks could be heard coming from the senior sideline. Across the field the juniors were screaming “Let’s kill the senior girls!” We ' ll pay them back for taking first place on their Homecoming float!” Junior girls, coached by Mr. David Russell, English teacher, and Mr. Robert Shinkan, math teacher, began practicing three weeks prior to the annual Powder Puff game. Senior girls, with experience from last year ' s game, were coached by math teachers Mr. George Pol- lingue and Mr. Robert Maicher. Their practices started one week before the game in the horseshoe. Keeping with tradition, a Cross Country team member was once again elected Pow- der Puff King. Junior Ceasar Labitan was honored with a cardboard crown during half- time. Junior and Senior boys supplied their own half-time show as they did acrobats and cheers for their respective teams. Annette Masolak scored all three of the seniors ' touch- downs while juniors Christi Mazanek and Lydia Megremis each scored one for their team. The final score was 20-16 in favor of the seniors who won for the third consecutive year. At the end of the fourth and final quarter, screams and ex- cited cheers of joy burst forth from the seniors ' sideline, which could be heard all over the football field. A disap- pointed junior team, tired and out of breath, left the field in hopes of a victory next year. Powder Puff 1 7 We’re net lust ribbcns and curls
