Time for Parties . 1 Q . is ESL students try out some American traditions by trying on Halloween disguises. Knife in hand, Nichole Barchilon slaughters a pumpkin at the Key Club party for ESL students. Halloween celebrations began early when the Key Club gave a party for the ESL students. The partygoers bobbed for apples, carved pumpkins, and ate treats. The French Club held a Halloween party for foreign students and students of foreign languages. Paul Barchilon acted as disc jockey while students danced. The HERO club carved twenty pumpkins and distributed them among the Good Samaritan, Boulder Manor, Mesa Vista, and Frasier Meadows retirement homes. The Theatre Guild sold curses and bites in the cafeteria throughout the week. Dressed appropriately as vampires, members cursed and bit unfortunate victims on Friday. Many BHS students joined the crowd on the Boulder Mall Halloween night. People, both in and out of costume, paraded up and down the street to look and laugh at the costumes. Popular disguises included Rubik's Cubes, mummies, rubber Nixon masks, monster masks, punk rockers, transvestites, and gory creatures. Clowning around, Sheryl Winn and Vickki DelPizzo grin on the library stairs. Halloween 19

Parents relived their high school days on October 6, at Back to School Night. The Stage Band and a flute ensemble welcomed the parents with music, and Gary Cox briefed them on how to survive in high school. Armed with their students' schedules, parents attended ten-minute classes during which teachers explained plans for the year and grading policies, and answered questions. During their students' lunch breaks, parents either ate refresh- ments in the cafeteria or tried to find their next classes. After the event, teachers commented that the parents were even worse than new students at finding classes.

he Drama Department's first production was an adaptation of the fable The Tortoise and the Hare. The tortoise and the hare enter a race to see which animal can run faster. The hare, played by Rob Ecker, had many misadventures but was always helped out by the tortoise, played by Ted Leggett. The play, set in the present, took place in and about the woodlands. Faculty consultant Jean Bonelli, with the help of Kelly Watson, designed the most elaborate costumes in BHS history. The detailed costumes made the characters' identities obvious. Karin King designed the make-up, and the Stagecraft class and members of Theatre Guild built the sets. Technical director Frank Smucker and audiovisual coordinator Dave White de- ew Look for an Old Tale signed the set and lights for the play. Nicole Hansen provides an attractive distraction for Rob Ecker from his race with the tortoise. Rob Ecker, Craig Rudman, Jeanne Bonnett, Heidi Whitaker, Victor Aguilar and Michelle Stahmann are amazed at the tortoise's lTed Leggettl proposition to race a hare. 20 Fall Play
