It wasn’t the movie version, it was De- Kalb’s very own fall play featuring “On Golden Pond” in the DHS auditorium on November 4 and 5. Bryan Nugen starred as the leading man playing Norman Thayer and the lead- ing lady, Marla McKown, played Norman’s wife, Ethel Thayer. Other cast members included Kim Knauer as Chelsea Thayer, their daughter; Scott Johnson, as Bill Ray, Chelsea’s boyfriend; Darren McKown as Billy Ray, his son; and Scott Metzger, as Charlie Martin the mailman. “On Golden Pond” is a play that shows love between husband and wife and par- ents and children. The play, written by Ernest Thompson, all revolves around Norman and Ethel Thayer, who were por- trayed very well during the whole play. The director was Mr. Gerry Nagel and his assistant director was Janet Fee. As the rest of the cast members stand by, Bryan Nugen prepares to take a bow after his excellent portrayal of Norman Thayer. After first arriving at the Thayer cottage on Golden Pond, Bill Ray and Chelsea discuss Norman and his 80th birthday celebration. Fall Play © 15

Friends met and walked the hall or attended meetings. Some students used the time to do studying or make-up work. Lunch would not be lunch without friends sitting around a table trying to make something good out of their meal. When the afternoon classes were final- ly over, we headed for home or job or somewhere else and ended another typi- cal day at DHS. The senior guys get together in the commons each morning to talk about happenings from the day be- fore — among other things. Day At School e {7
