Throughout the year, the Marian-Rice Playeris attend- ed plays at Meadow Brook, enjoying both the presenta- tions and a good time. The plays they viewed included '6The Pricef' 46The Glass Menagerie and The Crucible, among others. This yearis annual spring musical Hello, Dollyln was a real display of Marian-Rice talent. After months of preparation and practices, the cast and crews openned Dolly! on March 16, the first night of a four night run. A complete sound and lighting system, ramps for the dancers to perform on and an orchestra pit complete with Rice's own marching band, were some of this year's addes attractions. Under the direction of Miss Katherine Gillespie and Br. William Dogan, the production drew a full house each night. 1 1 ,. H

The main goal of the weekend was to bring about harmony and friendships between the schools. The festivities included a hot dog dinner and soc-hop at Marian. The quiz-em, volley ball games and Casino Royale were held at Rice. The climax of the weekend was the talent show which displayed future entertainers. On the political level, Brother Rice and Marian again hosted thc Model Senate with delegates also attending from area schools. Busing, defense appropriations and pollution provided hours of debate and many attempts at legislation. The frustrations encountered by the Uni- ted States congress this year were mirrored in the exper- iences of the Senate participants.
