Having more than 2,500 students and teachers crammed into one building could have made it hard for the atmosphere to be as relaxed as it wasg but shorter class schedules for some and the new magnet schools for others helped. Having a variety of things to do also helped keep Pats busy and interested in school. Different events going on in the school also helped to ease the school days.

Many songs in the musical such as f'Honey Bun, Bloody Mary and There's Nothin, Like a Dame showed the com- ical side ofthe musical while songs like Some Enchanted Evening and This Nearly Was Mine were sung during the serious parts. The musical was well received by the audiences and was a great success. For the first time a musical was performed for three consecutive nights. Tami Prunty and Lisa Reed are amused at Ens.
