This year, for the first time in the history of BHS, the Ravon Homecoming play was a musical entitled Guys and Dolls . Along with the humorous aspects of a play, there were always a few tragedies, and this year's play was no exception. Musical director Mr. lerry Morgan, while demonstrating a few of his intricate dance steps, stubbed his toe as he was showing the Hot Box girls how to do it. As senior Jenny Milburn was making one of her grand exits, she tripped and found herself at the bottom of the steps with a badly injured leg. Two ankles were sprained as junior Teresa Deal fell up the steps that senior Diana McKinney fell down. Not all was tragedy, however, for there were comical incidents, too. Senior Kathy Myers, while emphasizing one of her more emphatic speeches, pounded on the desk so hard that it could have been termed, The bang heard 'round the school. After the final performance on Wednesday, Ravon held its annual meeting. In the course of the meeting, each of the previous dramatics heads of BHS was called upon to share with the group one of her funniest and saddest experiences while teaching at BHS. Dr. Rohrig opened the antics and Mrs. Juanita Shearer followed. Then last, but not least, Miss Karolyn Sherfey brought things to a close. RIGHT. Harry the Horse, Steve Troyer, iokingly reminds Lt.
