I I ' er epidemic: spring strikes! Ah th . . . the flowers are a ' bloomin ' and the crickets are a ' chirpin ' . It is that wonder- ful time of year when lovers can run through daisy fields and be swept up by torna- does! Everyone contracts the yearly disease: SPRING FEVER! Taking a look around the halls during spring, one found them to be somewhat empty. The students had taken an early (or perhaps late) spring break and headed for the sunny south. Of course, they were not the only ones who took off early; the Duffs went to Acalpulco during the week before vaca- tion. The Bordners and Keef- ers joined their families and found Florida to be suitable for relaxation. Those who were not able to visit their loving grandparents (or the seagulls) stayed here in the Fort and day-dreamed, spring cleaned, shopped for spring clothes, washed cars, and do not forget parties! The return home of college students gave the seniors the itch to get out on their own. Final preparations were made for those who were continuing in school else- where by filling out and sending in housing applica- tions and last minute regis- tration forms. A healthy dose of SPRING FEVER is a good cure for all. No matter how hard one tries to capture the mood of spring, the best thing of all is that it comes when everyone needs it most! Barefeet and giggles are two rhroni( signs of spring fever. Ccna Shut maker and Eric Brugti take dtlvan tage of ttie heat wave.

Many moons ago 1 cnU ' rcci the (Carroll AmphitlK atcr on circss rehearsal nighl with the thought looming over inc. this is going to be a r(;al bore! I hegrudgingly sat down waiting for the Chi- cago photographer to arrive. I had high hopes, that if his photographs were of superb quality, this would comiien- sate for the musical. I could hear the actors moving and whispering: per- haps they were just pacing back and forth frantically trying to prepare themselves. The stage crew and make-up artists, off in the wings, awaited for last minute changes or retouches before the curtain rose for ' Once Upon a Mattress . The musical opened with a ballet pantomine performiul to a version of The Nut- cracker Suite . Based on the fairy tale. The Princess and the Pea , the c;omedy con- cerned the futile attempts of a not-too polished princess to become the wife of a not- too sauve prince as a domi- neering queen and a mute king interfertnl. A contagious laughter swept the crowd as the story progressed to the climax. Whistles pierced the air dur- ing the finale and the acotrs received a standing ovation. The thirty-six students involved, excluding the many that worked on back stage, scenery, lighting, and orchestra, put me in a state of bewilderment. Many of the actors I had known and been friends with for years, and I had no idea of their tal- ents. Costume change. Back stage with the help of Mrs. Bauserman. Lady Larken (Sarah Geller) prepares her- self for the next scene. Through the looking glass. A Lady- in-waitino. (Lisa McPherson) patiently tries to rearrange her medieval head dress.

Tipping, throwing, and spinning frisbees is a skill that Jerry |ennings practices during lunch hour. Look out behind you! Sopho- mores Karen Hendrix and Terri VonDeylen enjoy a siinny afternoon. This is dribbling? Bart Churchward makes it look easy as he kicks his way around the neighborhood. When the temperature rises so do absences as students such as Debbie Gales and Jeannette Ellis skip to Franke Park for lunch. So you see class . . .
