Top Right: Anger and frustration fill Mrs. Bramson’s (B. J. Rardin) thoughts, due to the 'incompetence' of her hired help and niece. Top Left: After collapsing under the persistent questioning of Inspector Bel- size, Danny (Brian Walker) is revived by the Nurse (Linda Goyer) and Mrs. Terrance (Liz Siebert). Love and Murder. . . . . . and Vice-Versa Night fell on AHS, and the English fog rolled in on the stage as the first theater production Night Must Fall got under way. The drama, written by Emlyn Williams, is a classic tale of love and murder . . . not necessarily in that order. Cast members were Julie Stout, Brian Walker, B. J. Rardin, Van Huff, Linda Goyer, Liz Siebert, Ross Hall and Karla Eldridge. November 14, 15, and 17 were the perform- ance dates. The set was an old Victorian house, the home of Mrs. Bramson, a wealthy woman who pretends to be crip- pled. A local hotel woman has been murdered near Mrs. Bramson's home, and the arrival of the unstable Danny sets the show for an evening of eerie entertainment. Above: One finds many strange things when probing through another's suit- case. Mrs. Terrance (Liz Siebert), Hubert (Van Huff), Olivia (Julie Stout) and Dora (Karla Eldridge) are looking for clues in Danny's luggage to the murder of a woman outside Mrs. Bramson's house. 18

Festival Without the Rides Student Council gave all the clubs a chance to make some extra money in the All School Festival, held December 1st. Although not much money was raised, it was still fun. Among the other booths not pictured were the FHA ring toss, the band had a dan throw, COE sold bagels, the hockey team let anyone play against the goal keeper, the varsity cheerleaders provided people with a chance to jump on the tramp, and after the festival Council had a dance. A pro- posal for a second festival in the spring was turned down. ARENA would like to thank all the clubs that donated money, and a special thanks to Council who donated 50% of all their profits to help us out.
