Miracle Worker Stirs Emotions William Gibson's The Miracle Worker was the choice of seniors for their traditional class play. The story is a moving portrayal of a teacher's efforts to help a blind and deaf girl realize the world around her. Linda Nadolny as Annie Sullivan and Elizabeth Tisdale as Helen Keller took the starring roles. The two evening performances on May 20 and 2l culminated three months of crammed rehearsal schedules. The cast spent two months memorizing lines and perfecting movements during after-school practice sessions. At the beginning of May the pace became more hectic when technical rehearsals began on stage. The pro- duction staff performed behind the scenes hunting for furniture, sewing costumes, and applying make-up for the production. Members of the cast and crew attended a special Drama class conducted by Mrs. Pauline Stanwitt, director of the play. The class met daily to rehearse the play and to learn enunciation, projection, blocking, and other dramatic techniques. Cast: TOP: G. Potts, E. Beckmann. ROW 3: A. Tyshynsky, L. Nadolny, G. Klatt, K.

.luniors Spend an Evening in Paris An Evening in Paris was typified by a French cafe motif which transformed the gym into a powder blue evening of enchantment. A total transformation was ac- complished by the Student Art League under the direction of Mr. Peter Boyaiian. Initial plans were created by the Prom Planning Committee and its advisors, Miss Renee Gerdes and Mr. Kenneth Steffen. A sidewalk cafe and delightful arrays of flowers effected the transformation. An air of excitement prevailed in the gym until at last King Frito Rivera and Queen Kathy Flesch were crowned. Splashes of spring'y color swished and swayed as couples enjoyed dancing to lovely music. An exciting motorcade shifted the action to food and entertainment at the post prom. In the wee hours of the morning, weary but dreamy- eyed students caught a few hours of sleep before embark- ing on early breakfasts and fun-filled picnics to round out the weekend.
