Despite the fact that the disc jocltey l ept bumping into the turntable, the 1989 Winter Formal was a raging success. The doors to the Irvine Marriot were opened at 8:00 P.M. to the 624 guests of the soid-out event. The mood was perfect ■ romanticism, along with excitement and friendly companionship. Modes of transportation varied greatly, from stretch limousines to BMW ' s to a practically antediluvian Suburban taken by Drew Brislen, Jennifer Sparks, and Company. Couples danced to a gamut of tunes which pleased all of the people at least some of the time. Drinks were flowing all night long, and unlimited desserts were available for those whose hunger was aroused by hours of dancing. As the midnight hour approached, the ballroom began to clear, yet that by no means signified the end of the night ' s activities. The end of the Winter Formal meant the beginning of the rest of the night. Students departed, off to get the best use of their limousines as possible and going to parties, proving that they all were Forever Young. v.y.

DRAMA Drama Polishes Plays Under the direction of Mr. Rob Rigg, tlie Dana Hills Porthole Theater did not go unused this school year. Drama ' s first production was Oscar and Hammerstein ' s critically acclaimed Oklahama! Immediately following Oklahoma!, casting began tor Neil Simon ' s Fools, a play about a town in Russia that was placed under a spell which made all inhabitants incredibly stupid. Drama ' s third production, Children of a Lesser God, was a deviation from the former two. Its touching story-line was based upon a man ' s effort to help a beautiful woman overcome the fears that go along with her deafness. As of press time, Drama was busy rehearsing for the 1956 Broadway classic, West Side Story. If their performance is anything like the others, then this production will undoubtedly be a polished success. ■ v.y.
