Talk about a big surprise1 Kim Shewbridge was hap- pily surprised when she passed her locker decorated by her friend Stephanie Butler on her 17th birthday. It is often said that school is a home away from home. Well, this is very true, but that leaves something out. Where is the other home? The other home is visited at least four times a day. It is brutally beaten, and worn with use. The other home is your locker. Remember the one that you kicked? That was your locker. Remember how you slumped up against it before homeroom. That was your locker also. You may ask yourself, why is a locker considered your other home? Because other than your beloved bedroom, your locker is something you use to express yourself. Just by turning it 38 right, 26 left, 3 right and pull the lock . . . Oh, hold on 38, 26, 3. Please come on 38, 26, 3! and pulling the lock to open up a whole door full of space just waiting to be filled. Most of the time you found the most current rock groups such as Prince, Duran Duran, and Van Halen. You also saw photographs of old girlfriends and new cars or new girlfriends and an old Nova. There were pictures you drew in the last ten minutes of Mr. Mathena’s art class or maybe a comic strip that summed up your life story with a smile. Whatever the case, by maybe just glancing at a per- sons locker when you ran down the hall, you seemed to know a little more about them. for Folders Holders 18 Cruisin’ Lockers

%» Lights Camera, Actioi And up rose the curtain for the mystery comedy, The Butler Did It. Though it seemed no one would ever learn the lines, simple words called cues, or how to speak with Scottish, Japanese, or Irish accents — much less speak them clearly, hours of prac- tice went into learning. Watching the movie Murder By Death, the basis for the play, helped the cast members tremendously in understanding the characters portrayed. It gave them a chance to see how they were to speak and dress. Somehow they got it together and gave what Alan Brookbank, the student director, called “an excellent performance.” Practical jokes and goof-ups, we had plen- ty of both . . . wiping out an expensive magnifying glass — having it fall apart on the floor, saying lines the same time everybody else did, having a hat box break and roll off the stage, plus the biggie, saying lines backwards so that they made no sense at all! Remember Danny Hunt, the detective writer, turned literary critic with a book of chain stores. All added flavor, excitment and kept au- diences on the edge of their seats. Was there really a butler in this play? Calm down the boogieman isn't going to get you Chris Schubert. Miss Maple, and Kim Shewbridge, Haver sham, are worried about the escaped murderer.
