With a large arts and crafts ex- hibit located in the Sherman Cafeteria and booths of many different kinds lining the street, there were attractions for people of all ages. The TWC Masqued Players presented two perfor- mances of DRACULA BABY which included a guest appear- ance from Dr. Shock and his friend during intermission. 12 A favorite of the 1977 Carnival goers was the dunking booth sponsored by the TWC baseball team. It seemed everyone wanted to get in the act. 13 TWC On Stage 14 Alumni and students joined forces to produce this spectacular show reminiscent of musicals seen on the TWC stage in past years. This was the second pro- duction of this type directed by Mrs. George Naff. With such a wonderful array of entertain- ment, the show was a huge suc- cess. 15 Inherit The Wind 1 16 INHERIT THE WIND, a play reenacting the Scopes Trial which took place in 1925, was presented in Dayton by a large cast of TWC students and staff members. Members of the cast included Charlie Harrison, Jeff Harper, Bob Roseberry, Ellen Kennedy, Dr. Budd Duncan, Harry Coble, and Benny Matherly. The play was both a cultural and a historical event. 17 Homecoming!
