Climb every mountain “Rodgers and Hammerstein’s ‘The Sound of Music,’ has a universal appeal that transcends the passage of time. Its touching combination of humor, drama and warmth melts even the most cynical au- diences,” said Miss Laurie Brenner, vocal music director. On April 19, 20 and 21, the BSHS vocal music department, drama department, and concert band, touched the hearts of the audience by displaying their talent in the musical “The Sound of Music.” A large cast was needed for the production, with fhe actors ranging from six-year-olds to high school age. The musical’s plot exemplifies every day life by stressing the point that even though there will be some tough mountains to climb, we must never lose sight of our dreams. The actors in the musical made the audience feel as if they were part of the play themselves, by bringing tears to their eyes and joy to their heart. Singing heartily.

Jingle bell rock “It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas” was the hit theme for the 1984 Christmas Dance. Rock videos, a new attraction, provided the enter- tainment for the dance throughout the evening. A large screen was set up so that the students were able to dance to the popular music or to sit and en- joy the videos. The dance drew a large crowd with many saying it was the best dance this year. Along with the videos, there were outstanding decorations prepared by Stuco. Helium balloons covered the ceiling and lin- ed the entrance while streamers and curly ribbons highlighted the tables and the dance floor, creating a festive atmosphere. This year, the procedure of selecting the royalty was different, with senior Bill Frentrop being elected as the first Chirstmas King. Also honored were Robin Roberts, who was elected Queen, while junior Pat Pickert and sophomore Julie Laing were named prince and princess. Is this for real?
