The Music Department presented special Christmas and Easter programs fea- turing the traditional music of both seasons. The music students performed in two operet- tas, Down In The Valley, featuring Sharon Murphy and Eric Stephens, and Trial By Jury, starring Randy Walti and Diane Lowry. In January the National Thespians staged The Night of January 16, the trial of a secretary for her boss ' s murder. n 1 l Stage and sound crews developed the special effects which made the presentations most realistic. Lynn Jaggar, Steve Wann, and Judge Randy Walti listened as Diane Lowry pleaded her case in Trial By Jury. Jim Crosbie conferred with Tom Donlon as Sharon Mur- phy day-dreamed in Down In the Valley.
