Juniors Present Up the Down Staircase Mr. Bester, (Fred Yoder), and Miss Beckett, dis- cuss the many problems and rewards of teaching school in a large city. Up the Down Staircase was a modem play set in a large New York City high school. Miss Beckett was new in the teach- ing profession and her first job was at Calvin Coolidge High School. She soon discovered she had chosen a difficult profession. Even though she met many difficulties, she held on to her ideals that teenagers were worthwhile and deserv ing of her efforts. Though Miss Beckett incount- ered many trying experiences throughout the school year, she finally convinced her students, Joe Ferone in particular, that she was sincere in her efforts to help them. A little rouge here, some eyeshadow there, and a star is bom. Patty Graber aptly portrayed Miss Barrett, the new school teacher in a large school with many problems.

by Seniors Stewardess Debbie Farmwald shows her relief in the safe landing by re- warding the hero, Mr. Spencer, with a grateful kiss. Captain Treleavan, (Howie Kaiser), had to talk Mr. Spencer, (portrayed by Kevin Slyh), an old Air Force pilot, in for a safe landing. The regular airline caterers couldn't supply enough food for the Windy City Air Charter Service flight, so food was brought in from another service. The food was found to be tainted and when the co-pilot and pilot both were stricken ill from the food poisoning, an inexperienced truck salesman who had not flown since his Air Force days had to take over the flying. Flight Into Danger proved to be a tense drama with touches of humor intermingled in the suspense. Steve Longworth takes time out from his job as sound effects and lighting man to help Barbara Cahill practice her lines.
