Fall play Harvey hops on DHS stage An extended production season held up the fall play, HARVEY, and it was finally presented in early winter. Brian Glendinning led the cast in the starring role as Elwood P. Dowd. His imaginary rabbit friend was always present but rarely seen. Other lead roles included Chris Hockman as Myrtle Mae Simmons and Denise Hylton as her mother Veto Louise Simmons. Some interesting background on this local version of HARVEY is that it was first produced in 1945, when it won a Pulitzer Prize. Director, John Klein used both skill and talent in bringing the sophisticated drama to local fans. Those who saw the D.H.S. production will agree that the invisible rabbit and his friends were as appealing as ever. 24 Foll Play

pep assemblies Sl its Featured Pep and activities were, on the average, pretty good. One of the most outstanding events was the Gong Show put on by the Varsity rally, J.V. rally, and Varsity girls rally, with the wrestling Pin Pals participating as well. The most appealing acts performed were a group of Sophomore boys acting as cheerleaders and performing a routine to the song the Stripper ; Brian Glendinning and Wayne Wellman doing scenes from Deadwood Dick ; and the Wrestling Pin Pals doing a Freaky dance routine to the theme song from Saturday Night Fever , ( Staying Alive ). An additional event that was well received was the Freeze Em skit. This involved a Sophomore, a Junior, and a Senior chosen from the audience; each had to sit on a block of ice and eat a bowl of ice cream through the entire assembly. It's easy to tell trom these two examples that pep assemblies were lively, entertaining, and exciting for both participants and viewers.
