What does a student with some free time do? Central terrace Is always one of the most popular places to sit and do nothing. After lunch on nice days, many people like to talk to friends and enjoy the sunshine on central terrace. Some people like to avoid the “social¬ ness of central terrace and prefer to sit on the concrete benches located at various places on campus. Another fa¬ vored place to spend free time Is the cafeteria, where students can relax and unwind after a grueling algebra test over a Hl-C. For the student who prefers a little peace and quiet, the library provides the opportunity to catch up on a little extra studying or to finish the homework due next hour. Clearly, every Lancer has his own place on campus, out of class as well as In.

ZoaaxfoTUu. On October 3, 1985, at 7:30, p.m., many of Belleville East ' s freshmen and sopho¬ mores felt the thrill of having their name in lights ... well, in the freshman-sophomore one acts program, anyway. The theme of the one acts this year was drama by Ameri¬ can women. Frank Winslow, a faculty di¬ rector along with Jemima Owens, said that originally they were interested in doing one of the works of American dramatist Lillian Heilman, but none seemed appro¬ priate. The three one-acts performed were Here We Are, The Lottery, and Sorry, Wrong Number. Here We Are deals with a young newlywed couple on their honeymoon learning to adjust to marriage. The Lottery, one of the most widely read and performed works of American literature, Is about su¬ perstition and the continuation of empty traditions. In Sorry, Wrong Number, a woman overhears a plan of murder on the tele¬ phone and tries to intervene without real¬ izing that she is to be the victim. The one-acts have been presented from almost the beginning of the school, Wins¬ low says, but earlier they were offered as all-school productions. The last five years, however, have been done as a sort of sup¬ plement to literature giving freshmen and sophomores an Introduction to East ' s dra¬ ma program. Approximately 75 students, 60 of these freshmen and sophomores, were involved In this year ' s production. Try-outs were conducted shortly after La¬ bor Day and then the cast practiced on alternating days for the first two weeks and run-throughs every day for the next two weeks. The students, especially the tech crew, put In substantial amount time, but as Mr. Winslow pointed ou “This isn ' t a big production. The kids ar Just coming back to school and we don ’i want them to get snowed right off the bat.” Three student directors, all seniors helped with the production. Chrissi Kin- sella helped with The Lottery, Kristin Etzel did Here We Are, and Cassandra Shepherd helped with Sorry, Wrong Number. Kim AI bo, a sophomore, served as the student techni¬ cal director. As to the success of the one-acts, they “went over real well’’ according to Mr. Winslow. A large crowd attended for the public showing, he said, and over one thou¬ sand students saw the production during their English classes. Hopefully some of these actors and actresses will continue with East’s drama program and perhaps one day actually realize the dream of see¬ ing their name in lights.
