Roberts Sails in for Fall Rlay he house lights dimmed and for a moment there was darkness. The lights then lit up the stage and Mr. Roberts, the fall play, had begun. lvlr.

Besides Roberts, some other major cast members vvere their overbearing captain, x played by Tim Sipes, '85, Ensign Rulver. played by Brad Fandel, '85, and Doc played by Mark Pacha, '85. Lt. Girard, the only female role, was played by Julie Buckley, '85. Being on stage with 20 guys vvas definitely an experience. said Buckley. I loved it. The only non-human role in lvlr. Roberts vvas played by a goat named Kimberly. Kimberly. vvhile being a very well mannered goat. always seemed to get stage fright. On tvvo of the three performance nights Kimberly got loose. Only quick thinking saved the audience from a charging goat. When Kimberly got loose Steve Schenkelberg, '85, quickly picked her up and left the stage. The nights of October 4. 5, and 6 were not the only time that BHS put on the play of lvlr. Roberts. The production was first shovvn at the old high school in the spring of 1971. We had a bigger stage and better sets this time. said Drama Coach Howard ' 1 ttf Sible. I thought the play was great! 'tw is cisc Y lvlark Racha ' X .

Monday: Turkey wfdressing or fish on a bun and tea roll. The cafeteria is a place some people never see during the school year, mainly because they have their own mode of transportation and they don't have to eat the school food, but for those students who are so-called immobile , their sentence of a year in the cafeteria isn't really all that bad. This year brought new, exciting things to our cafeteria, one of which was a sign line. On it the announcements would run all day long. l think that it is a good idea because some students are not always where they can hear the an- nouncements, said Mr. Paul Castro. Mike Heberling, '86, and Todd Battalene, '86, greet one of the newcomers - the salad bar. fPhoto by Brent Doerzmanl Since there are no longer any candy sales this year, relief of those mid- afternoon growls are found from another source - the vending machines in the cafeteria. These candy sale replacements are probably better than the originals, giving a wider range of choices plus a variety of fruit juices to quench your thirst. Another new addition was the grand opening of the help yourself salad bar. They have raisins, peanuts, croutons, bologna with either ham or turkey and many other toppings, rivaling popular restaurant salad bars as Sherri Keller, '85, commented, All I have to say is, watch out Wendy's. - Elizabeth Munding Eating at School ! 17
