At last, the big night had arrived and the performance went off with a bang! Bill fHazen Searway, was having girl trouble and figured his steady, Belinda QSandra Belyea, was taking him a bit too much for granted. Also, having flunk- ed an important history exam, he was ineligible for football. After many ex- asperating moments, to which Liz fPat LaBelle, added much excitement, Bill finally took another exam and passed. Shirley Mae fFay Soucier, proved to be an unusual addition to the play. The third act solved all difficulties for Spring City High and the Webster family. THE CAST Bill Webster -. . . . . fWho had growing pains, . . . .
