New talent shown Providing an evening of entertainment, the Drama Club presented three one-act plays. Talent was displayed by many students new to the acting field. All but six students had never acted in a high school production. Because the plays went so well, you would not have known that some of the students had no previous acting experience. commented one of the students who attended the plays. The first production, entitled Please No Flowers, depicted Cathi Free and Diana Wilier who, after choosing death, witness their own funerals. In conclusion they find that living had its advantages. Sorry Wrong Number, the second play, starred Amy Zentz as a bedridden neurotic who overhears a telephone conversation of two men planning a murder. She never realizes that they are plotting to kill her. Jeff Funk and LaVonne Ver-genz played newlyweds in the last production entitled Two Fools Who Gained a Measure of Wisdom. This play is a comical farce which portrays a young husband's well-founded concern about his new bride's meeting with his aunt, played by Carla Buske. The plays were different and imaginative, not like anything I've seen here before, said a junior play-goer. (Top) After realizing that she is going to be murdered.

Intricate set design earns much praise Approximately 550 people attended the spring production of Arsenic and Old Lace, a play about two ladies whose hobbies include killing off old men for whom they feel sorry. Those who attended the play could not help noticing the set, which depicted a Victorian livingroom. In charge of set construction, Mr. Lia began with a basic idea of what was to be constructed and how it was to be presented. With this idea in mind, he made pencil sketches and watercolor paintings to get a more specific idea. The actual construction of the set took two months and at least one-hundred hours. Surprisingly the scenery cost only one-hundred and fifty dollars, because the majority of it was constructed from cardboard. Commented one play-goer, The scenery was excellent, a real asset to the play. The play was directed by Mrs. Koehler and Mr. Swanson. Abby (Cathi Free) and Martha (Carla Buske) count on their fingers (right) to make sure that Jonathan has killed thirteen men. 18 Spring Play
