— M. Zukowski s Da©fla Anything went last March With a cast of 70 people, the characters of Anything Goes began rehearsal. This became very chaotic because no one knew how to tap dance. Everyone had to learn in just a little over three weeks. Laura Noss com- mented, ''Practices often lasted until almost 11:30 p.m. on school nights, but it was well worth it! The play was about the character Billy, played by graduate Scott kern, stowing away on an oceanliner heading for England so he can be with the woman he loves, Hope (Caitlin Miessan). But, she is on trip with her fiance Sir Evelin (Hank Unger) and his mother (Becky Carson). The plot thickens when Moonface (Karl Hansen), a gangster disguised as a missionary, comes aboard and helps Billy hide. The set this year was much more complicated than the one for Damn Yankees because it had two levels with stairs leading to the top plat- form. It looted like the two levels of an oceanliner's deck where people walk around on a cruise. ANCHORS AWAY. Junior Dave Steckel waits for the music to play before beginning his dance routine.

C. Manning Snoball's Not a Total Fairy Tale Once upon a time . . . 247 semi-formally clad couples at- tended the Snoball dance on Valentine's Day. Like each year, the responsibility of asking dates fell upon the girls. They were then obligated to purchase a $12 ticket, dinner for two, and a boutonniere. Junior Kristen French added, None of the people 1 went with wanted to drive, so we rented a limousine. It cost us an extra $45 a piece, but this wav, we were able to relax and talk to each other in- stead of driving in separate cars. When the time neared 9:30, most of the couples started to ar- rive. Immediately, they were engulfed in a fairy tale setting. Earlier, Key Club nad decorated with a castle, a clock, and glass slippers filled with candy hearts. Fighting through waves of pink and blue balloons, couples found their way to the cafeteria where the band Challenger rocked them for three and a half hours. Senior Heather McNaught remarked, I've never seen a dance with so many people before. The hostili- ty provoked at claiming balloons amazed me. I must've had nine stolen three different times. Finally, I left without one. As the clock struck midnight, the underclass couples headed for home, while the others look- ed for alternative nocturnal an- tics. Most headed off with groups to parties, either at FULL OF HOT AIR With cheeks puffed, freshman Tibet Lash contributes to the pre-Snoball decorating. These blue, pink, and silver balloons had to be half inflated to fit in the showcases. houses or at hotel rooms. Senior Ben Daniels admitted, When I left for the dance, I wasn't given a curfew; in fact, my dad tola me not to come home! Staying out for most of the night, senior Meredith Walther added, Afterwards, I went to my friend's date's house where we partied all night in the jacuzzi — wearing shorts and T-shirts, of course ' Yet, unlike the usual fairy tale with its quaint happy ending, this fairy tale endea unhappily. Flagrant alcohol abuse was evi- dent at the dance, and the ad- ministration threatened the future of all upcoming dances. Valentine Flowers Showered Students Valentine's Day arrived one day early for students as AFS held i|s annual carnation sale of red, white, and blue flowers. Sold for $1 each the week before Valentine's Day, the flowers were delivered on Friday the 13th. Receiving flowers oh this day gave even the most superstitious person a reason to look forward to going to school. When students purchased the flowers, they could write a message to be sent along with the flower. Red flowers left students smiling, white flowers strengthened friendships, and blue flowers left students wondering. Becky Snevel remarked, T love sending the flowers, but on the morning that they are distributed, I'm always afraid that 1 won't get any! That's the only thing that I don't like about the carnation sales- some people get an entire bou- quet, while others don't get any. Student Life
