Prom The theme Puttin on the Ritz fit the prom dance very well as blue jeans and tennis shoes were discarded for elegant gowns and dazzling tuxedos. For many prom-goers the elaborate evening began with fine dining at a posh restaurant. From there they advanced to the high school gymnasium for the formal dance. As the students crossed a large crepe paper bridge, they entered the gym which had been trans- formed into a small city in black, silver and blue. The prom-goers were entertained by the band, Grand Marshall. For the students that took advantage of the post- prom activities, the evening lasted till the wee hours of the morning. They received excellent ser- vice from Elks' Club members as their cars were parked for them and they were filmed promenading into the CO-ED Theater to see the movie, Foot- loose. After the movie many prom-goers quickly changed into casual wear and attended the dance at the Elks' Club from 3:00 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. After the sparkling evening ended, the weary- eyed prom-goers went home to press flowers into memory books and to sleep. 1. Seniors Stephanie Potter and Jon Kelley advance to the CO-ED Theater to see the movie Footloose. 2. Grand Marshall presents quality top hits for prom goers. 3.

There's only one way out for you, and it’s lan- guage. To learn that your fingers can talk. And say anything you can name. The Miracle Worker, by William Gibson, portrays the younger years of Helen Keller, a blind and deaf child. Since her disabling illness at nineteen months, Helen has lived her life in darkness and silence and came through it as a raging tyrant. But the arrival of Annie Sullivan brought a fresh Irish temper to match her own. Annie is determined to teach Helen the language that can release her from her life of confusion and solitude. Helen is equally determined not to cooperate. In the final emotional scene, Helen utters her first syllables since she was a babe. With a gutteral wah-wah she breaks her life-long communication barrier. The serious theme of this play demanded that the cast draw from personal experiences to find and feel the emotion needed to portray the wonder of this child's moment of discovery. Similarly, the crews were required to research the late 1800's to provide realistic costumes, props, and settings. The crews contributed such miracles as a multilateral stage and a pump that drew real water. Drama advisor Scott Slechta, with the assistance of student director Don Wittmer, produced this play which was much more demanding than the ama- teur comedies usually performed by high school casts. Says Slechta, It (The Miracle Worker) is something I've always wanted to perform, and here in Fairfield I've finally found the cast capable of it. 1. Anne Sullivan (Amanda Zimmerman) speaks kindly to the blind girls (Juanita Davidson and Sarah Hennesy) of Perkin s Institute. 2. Kate (Robin Shepherd) attempts to retrieve from Helen (Tina Clough) a pair of dangerous scissors. 3. Playing in the garden are Missy (Kristi Holt), Helen (Tina Clough), and Martha (Wendy Snook). 5. The Keller family greets Annie (Amanda Zimmer- man) at the train station. 6. Captain and Kate Keller (Paul Moser and Robin Shepherd) gaze into the unseeing eyes of their in- fant Helen. 19
