Dinner theater is a smash Whcle school involved An evening of mystery and good food for the community was the result of teamwork by the whole school. The speech class worked for weeks on the mystery play Great Caesar's Ghost. The ghost seemed to appear wherever rehearsals were held (as well as during the play.) Near disas- ters occurred as the ghost was blamed for unmemorized lines, missing play properties, and absentees at prac- tice . Overcoming stage fright was no problem for the hams in speech class, and ad-libbing came natural to Jim Schwind and Phil Gooch. Continual admonitions from the di- rector, Mrs. Bums, were given to the girls on how to sit on stage while wearing a dress, and to the play cast not 'to bunch up.' Deem the play a success but over- look the ghost's unattached strings, missed cues, forgetfulness, etc. With the help of Mr. Alig, Mr. play director, and Mr. Bowers, the shop students measured the stage and built new scenery flats. Unfortunate - ly, this play was being performed at the Fair Building and the ceiling was a foot lower than the flats were tall. Two days before the play they quick- ly devised new flats from refrigerator boxes and the Ag. students painted them, while the play cast fretted and fumed — and practiced. Yearbook photographers retook pic- tures four times for the program that the art dept. designed. (It turned out great.) The biggest jobs fell on the FHA girls as they planned the meal, fixed the food, set up the tables, and served the dinner to 120 very im- pressed people. 14 Dinner Theater

So the hero story continues with our 'super heroes' coming through with a final victory of 15-9 over the Eagles (the first homecoming victory since '70.) A fancy celebration was held Saturday night with the 1978 Homecoming Follies Banquet. Following the banquet feast, catered by the George Keck family, the evening entertainment consisted of a chorus line, songs, 'funny' jokes from Rick Worley — a reasonable facsimili of a Las Vegas show. AS THE SCHOOL SONG is played by the band in the spirit line, the fired-up su- per heroes run onto the field ready to defeat Sayre.

 'i m TOP ABOVE : WONDER FILLS Lll Miller's and Leslie Curtis' minds when they try to figure out why Cindy McDaugale and Jimmy Schwind are crying during Great Caesar's Ghost. Dinner Theater 15 ABOVE CENTER: INSTEAD OF USING cardboard boxes for walls, flats were used, thanks to the Ag. boys. John Parker and Lowell Cunningham find this kind of painting an easy task. A PERFORMANCE TAKES ORGANIZ- ING, and Mr. Bowers, Mrs. Caldwell, and Mrs. Bums hardly find time to dis- cuss building the flats. IT'S HARD TO FIND THE RIGHT amount of food to serve on each plate. Doris Day, Susan Garmen, Dottie Pearson, and Kim Kelley try to remember who had Chicken Kiev and who had roast. ' Y
