‘Twas the dance ... 'Twas the dance before Christmas and all through the school... This year’s Stuco-sponsored Courtwarming was held Dec. 17, featuring the theme, Twas the dance before Christmas. Approximately 150 stu- dents attended. Music was provided by a disc jockey, playing the hits to entertain everyone. As the evening progressed, the time came for the crowning of the king and queen.

Santa Claus (Clausle Smith) crowned Steve Christensen as king, the JCL representative. Many students wound up their festive evening around 9:30 p.m. and went to various places to eat—Annie's, the Plaza, GoJo's or the Peacock Pavllllon. All in all, the dance entertained those at- tending while spreading holiday spirit. Christmas Royalty: Row 1: Steve Christensen, and Tina Wilson Row 2: Brian Landers. Lisa Pickert.

Dracula Bites BSHS Frightening but exciting, that's what this year's fall play, Dracula, was all about. The play premiered Oct. 31, fitting well with Halloween spirit, and continued to show through Nov. 3. Choosing this play was an easy choice for director Bari Foote, because of the available talent. Ms. Foote cast senior Randy Freeman, who has been active in drama for four years, to play the evil Dracula. Being chosen to play Dracula was the thrill of my high school acting career, said Freeman. The play was not only a success because of Its characters, but also because of its technical effects. The set for the play fea- tured such elaborate props as a rotating bookcase, and technical effects included special lights and the use of a fog machine. Senior Burt Tabor, who designed the set, said it was the most com- plicated one the department had produced. The fog machine was run by Robert DeLeon, with other special effects by Hardie Loehr. Other members of the crew includ- ed Tina Wilson, Albert Linan, Steve Johnson, Alan Anderson, and Rod- ney Randolph. When the final curtain had been drawn, Ms. Foote said she was pleased with the work of her crew. I would do it all over again,” she said. —Dana Jones Looking (or Ronflold.
