I thought that the One Acts this year were exceptional in their caliber. The intense concentra- .' tion and effort put forth by the cast members 5,1 toward working as a unit made all of the shows go ,H --: . 1 over quite well. I enjoyed being a part of the cast, Q both at the school performances and later on, when V 'F . 1 we went on to the contest competition. Working with the other actors and actresses was rewarding, 5 .36 12 . T 'L' ,A but most of all, a lot of fun. Q 45:34, 1 - Kay Schwinn 5' E if X , V 'N One Act Plays f 109

Drama Club is special because it combines the skills and knowledge of many activities, such as the speaking and acting of Forensics and the building and design of shop classes into one complex unit. The only limit to what you can accomplish is the amount of work you are willing to do. - Mark Nelson Ut Working late at night, Drama Club President Mark Nelson puts the finishing touches on a pro- ject. l2i At dress rehearsal for the One Acts, Lori Nelson helps Sue Skony with her make-up. 131 Drama Club Secretary Leslie Kauffman adjusts a light gel on the cafeteria stage.

Drama UIub's wbvwinter Musical, ui Abner, left the usual occurences of High School life behind and headed down the road to Dogpatch, the hillbilly town where all the irregulars of the Al Capp comic strip of the same name reside. Under the direction of Miss Knudsen, music Director Miss Hartzell and Chore- ograpner Bonnie Boettcher, the unusu- aly large cast of 46 performers ani- mated app's zany and hilarious char- acters to create a show which was both outrageously funny and extremely entertaining. Li'l Abner followed in the tradition of BCHS Musicals, being a first rate pro- duction. However, it had an unusual twist to it, with three faculty members making cameo appearances. Mr. Barnes, Mr. Berigan, and Mr. Hennig were a refreshing addition to the show, drawing laughter from all in attendance. Remembers Mr. Berrigan, The teach- ers had a great time working with the students. They treated us as if we were one of them, and this made Li'l Abner an enjoyable experience. Li'l Abner is the story of Dogpatch, USA, Abner Yokum and his fellow citi- zens of Dogpatch as they try to save their town from destruction by an expe- rimental A-tom Bomb which is to be dropped by the US Army, and save Abner from the clutches of the evil and greedy General Bullmoose, who is attempting to prevaricate the formula for Mammy Yokum's Yokumberry Tonic from the gullible Abner. Starring Glenn Campbell as Abner, Terri Graff as Daisy Mae, Sean Smullen as Pappy Yokum and Lisa Stefanowski as Mammy Yokum, the cast kept the audi- ence chuckling and interested through- out the show, as the Dogpatchers go .. be S' , E ' H...

All turns out well in the end, as Bullmoose is caught in his own game of deceit, and Dogpatch is saved because an item of socially redeeming value is found there, namely a statue of Jubllation T. Cornpone, a bumbling General of the Confederacy during the Civil War. Terri Graff says of the show, Everyone involved had a great and unforgettable time.
