Giddings Above is a scene pictured in the third Act: K, Reiter, M. Smith, P. Moran, B. Welker, B. Heller. That night after the final tryout was a sleepless one for many of us Would-be- actors. However, the next day when our names were posted as cast members, our happiness was complete, because we were unaware that our worries had only begun. Of course, none of us would have traded jobs with anyone in the world, but we really had to work. All of us learned that acting is only one part of producing a play. We built a complete set and painted it, we used all kinds of light-costume committeesg make- up committees, special committeesg for publicity, stage props, and programsg and even these do not include all of the details which are so necessary for a good perfor- mance. Sometimes, after an especially long night of rehearsals, one which might in- clude going over one scene as many as eight or ten times, we were so exhausted, we could hardly move. But there's some- thing you can't explain, that no one even noticed or complained. And on opening night, when the direct- ors gave us the huge box of shiny, red apples, tokens of good luck, and told us they had enough confidence in us to watch the whole per ormance from the audience, we realized that a few such rehearsal nights were worth this one breathless moment. And I know that every junior who con- tributed in any way to the success of Seventeenth Summer felt duly rewarded when the final burst of applause reached his ears. . --Kay Reiter Above is pictured a scene from the last act of the play, The Late Christopher Bean .

Before the tryouts for the senior play, The Late Christopher Bean, came around this year, I thought of acting as something different, a lot of fun, and not much work. Even after tryouts, when the list of the characters, and their parts had been posted I still could not believe I had been given a part. After the first rehearsal, I found that in a small sense I had been right, plays are a lot of fun, and they are something dif- ferent, but they are also a lot of work! We had to learn how to walk across the stage, how to stand, how to talk, but mainly how to act. Out of all of these things, the hard- est for me to do was to learn my lines. I could not help wonderin if my mind would not go blank once I was Inefore the audience. The four weeks before opening night flew by, and then I began to worry, would the audience like the play, is there some- thing we should have done, and forgot, and most of all, will anyone come to see it? Then the play was over, and most of our worries were forgotten. There is a lot I will always remember about the play, the tension, the fun, and the work, but I know that the longest remem- brance will be of the thrill I had when I went in front of the audience for the first time on opening night. I know we are all proud, and happy to have taken part in the play, and we feel we did our very best. ---John Neinstedt I Dr. Haggett . SusanrHaggett . Abby .... Mrs. Haggett . Ada Haggett .

Hour of l'racti0e...Many Game With a usual starting team of four juniors and one senior, the Trojan cage team fought hard through every game in the campaign. Even though they had an excess of determination, a definite isadvantage was their lack of height. However, due to the fighting spirit of the Trojans, the taller teams had to battle for every point that they made. Even though the team ended the season with a record just over the . 500 mark, the feeling is that it was a very succe ssful season.
