Bononos ond mottresses round out the yeor by Sue Davis Every year at BR there is a special event known as Banana Day . In 1979 it took place on April 6. During this day a mysterious banana person went around masked in yellow and whip creamed a few people. Many still don't know who this mysterious per- son was. On that day, everyone was sup- posed to wear as much yellow as pos- sible, and during 6th period everyone attended the assembly in the cafeto- rium. Banana eating relays, a pie eating contest and a banana eating contest took place. The Seniors came in first in the banana eating relay. The Jun- iors finished second. The Sophomores came in first in the pie eating contest. To top it all off, a dance took place from 8 to 11:30 at which door prizes, including a car stereo, bean bag chairs, and a goose down vest were awarded. Ouill and Scroll, the journal- ism honorary society sponsored the Q .. F .,g 11 event and made over 5200. The money went to Senior journalism scholarships and a steak fry. Monday, May 11 during first period, Slave Day took place. All of the Fresh- men gathered on the stage in the cafe- torium to be bidded upon by upper- classmen. The money made from the sales went to the Freshman class funds. S386 was made on the event- a record amount for Slave Day earn- ings. The musical comedy Once Upon a Mattress was played on the BR boards Friday and Saturday night, May 18 and 19. The plot started out with the prince looking for a princess. Many princesses came from all over and took the test necessary to become the Prince's wife. All failed until Prin- cess Winnifred of lcomkill Garden came and passed the sensitivity test by failing to fall asleep when one small pea was placed under 20 mattresses. They were married and lived happily ever after. Who was to blame for this fantastic performance? Director Larry Niemi, of course. -. Mnuunnallil. ' R 's M PLAY 67 Y.
