The fall production of THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH, the first play directed by Ms. Elaine Smart at FHS, depart- ed from tradition in many ways. Contrary to the past, char- acters were portrayed not only by sophomores, but also by upperclassmen. The content ranged from circus acts to Shakespeare and was geared to all ages, not to children alone. In this assemblage of talent many familiar people could be found. The varied acts contained in this show were intro- duced by a ringmaster and included Emmet Kelly, acrobats and clowns, Shakespeare's A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM, the Marx brothers, Cantinflas and his bull, and Charlie Chaplin and his dancers.

 Trojans Smash Centerville A blocked punt, a 69-yard Gilpin to Hix pass, runs of 15 and 85 yards by Mike Bartruff, and a two yard plunge byFoshier. That was the story of Homecoming '72. After four straight defeats, the Trojans had returned to give a happy crowd a 35 to 12 victory and provide Coach Pearl Smith with his seventh consecutive homecoming victory. Launching the festivities on Thursday was the traditional snake dance in Central Park. In light of the recent ecological movement, the student body chose to elimi nate the usual bonfire in favor of a torch. Connie Evans was crowned Home- coming Queen in the Pep Rally held in Trojan Stadium. On Friday, the student body was released at 2:30 to form the Homecoming parade around the square. Miraculously, the senior float, which nobody thought would be finished, did in fact, appear. However, first prize in the float contest went to the sophomores. Owen Wagner, President of the Tro- jan Booster Club, addressed the enthusiastic crowd in Cen- tral Park. Student Life 19
