This scene shows a complete view of the stage and scenery which was made by the Stage Craft Class and Stage Crew.

Joy Schreiber, costume chairman, mends a last-minute tear in Donna Barker ' s costume while Linda Schulz patiently waits her turn. Gypsy Love Song, a familiar melody from the Fortune Teller, is sung by Musette (Linda Bloemker ) and Sandor ( John Carroll. ) The entire cast joins in the singing of the finale Romany Life, as the operetta comes to a close.

Manual Counsels Students to Plan Ahead One of the hardest things seniors must decide is what to do after graduation. On October 1 7 sen- iors met with their parents for a guidance session on choosing colleges and vocations. Underclass- men may get a head start on this choice on Opportunity Day, now an annual event. After hearing an Auditorium speaker urge planning for the future, representatives from various voca- tions and colleges visit Manual in January for counseling. Each student elects a group and at- tends a 40-minute discussion with that repre- sentative. Rose McCombs helps register parents at the Senior-Parent Conference while Don Williams tags a senior ' s dad. Redskins Hear ' Go to College ' Advice In the Library on Opportunity Day Manualites hear about the advantages of attending college from one of the university guidance and enlistment representatives. A question and answer period after the formal explanation helped students decide if this was the school for them.
