Fall Play Success Comes Out Of The Frying Pan Shocking was the mood, live-in was the rule as the drama department presented Francis Swann’s comedy, Out of the Frying Pan to receptive audi¬ ences November 17 and 18. This very laughable play set in a shocking pink flowered apartment in New York City proved a total success. Live-in was the rule for three young, ambitious actors, and their room¬ mates, three young, ambitious actresses. The apart¬ ment shared by George, Norman, Tony, Kate, Marge, and Dotti was in a continuous unroar over their down¬ stairs neighbor, producer-gourmet, Mr. Kenny. The play gained in interest with the appearance of the doting landlady, Mrs. Garnet attempting to collect overdue rent. Dotti, the most unforgettable of the six, was continually bothered by her aspiring political father and school friend, Muriel. Even the police be¬ came acquainted with the vibrant apartment when they were called to investigate a noise, only Marge screaming. Her vocalizing was part of an impromptu play the youthful actors were putting on for Mr. Kenny, in hopes of getting parts in one of his theatrical pieces. The six kids got their parts obviously helped by their endearing personalities and Out of the Frying Pan was a hit! Oh, he’s Dottie’s father, i see!” exclaims Lynn Hooper about Joe Hare. We were hoping you would be able to come up and see our play tonight,” begs Mary Morris to John McConnell as the other characters look on. 14

Knights In Shining Armour Attend Homecoming Crisp October evening . . . high spirits of the stu¬ dent body . . . the closely guarded secret of the Queen’s identity. All this ushered in the 1967 Home¬ coming Weekend. The one point defeat to Madison was softened by the half-time activities—The Civi- tan’s unforgettable version of “The Thinker , the prize-winning Sophomore Brew for Victory, and the Keyette tail-twitching, eye winking, ear-wiggling rabbit, the court circling the field in classy convert¬ ibles and the exciting moment when Marcia Clark was announced Queen and Debbie Murdock, Maid of Honor. In preparation for the dance the following night, Saturday afternoon was filled with last minute dinner reservations and hectic hair appointments. The Homecoming Dance was carefully guarded by glitter¬ ing Knights of the Round Table. Sounds of the Ye Bay Rums set the swingers dancing. Senior class president, Brian Mitchell presented the court with a little difficulty, clearly overawed by the girls, but all turned out well for everyone who came to the dance and the whole Homecoming Weekend was sure to leave lasting memories.
