Students, Faculty co-operated to present CPHS’s first joint performance “The Man Who Came To Dinner”. Both on stage and behind the scenes, students and teachers worked together with apparent success. Aside from being a box-office hit, faculty members agreed that the play was a success in that by working together toward a common goal, both teachers and students gained a better understanding of one another. Despite the fact that rehearsal did take up a large portion of their leisure time, the teachers felt that they had had a lot of fun doing the play. Spotlighted in the production was Principal Roger Childress who char¬ acterized Sheridan Whiteside, a world renowned author and lecturer. Whiteside became stranded in a small mid-west town with a broken hip. From his wheel chair, the arrogant executive dominated his host’s household with his selfish de¬ mands, radio broadcasts, and foreign visitors who added unexpected problems. ABOVE —“Damn, damn, damn!” shouts Whiteside as he’s plagued by another broken hip as the curtain falls.

FAR RIGHT —Whether sober or drunk, Bert Jefferson (Mr. Craig Myers), the town repor¬ ter proves to be a trial to Whiteside. 12
