Play’s the thing Putting together a play is not al- ways the easiest thing to do; just ask Ms. Virginia Fuller, the speech and drama teacher. She used both class- room methods and actual play pro- duction to instruct the students about presence before an audience. Just before Christmas, the class performed The Best Little Christmas Pageant Ever. Two months of hard work went into this play and the ac- tual performance left both teacher and students with something to be proud of. In the spring the speech class put together two one act plays: t’s Cold in Them Thar Hills, and Louder | Can’t Hear You. The first was obvi- ously a hillbilly drama while the lat- ter was somewhat more contempo- rary. Both plays were comedies and were well received by the student body.

The dance was held in the lobby, and all students had a free view through the skylight. The. National. Honor. Society sponsored the Sadie Hawkins dance and took upon themselves all the work and planning. Math teachers and co-sponsors, Mr. Morley. Jones and Mrs. Mina Jones, had the job of seeing that everything was done correctly and on time. The main event of the night was the announcement of Mr. and Ms. Dogpatch. The lucky couple with the best outfits were senior, Doug. Lark..and junior, Cindy Warner. Many students dressed up for the occasion and danced to the top-forty music provided by Sound Factory. Another event that provided entertainment for the students was the dance shared by Mrs. Mina Jones and junior, Jason Barney.
