A Teahouse, a troop of U.S. occupational forces, and a backward Okinawan village made for a de- lightful production of “Teahouse of the August Moon,” November 6-7, 1964, in the M.H.S. Audi- torium. The play, directed by Mr. Ramon Whit- field, and his student director, Jan Abrams, was a howling success. John Hamilton, John Mansfield, and Bob Stanwood test the “star” with a little drink. 7 Mrs. Violette Melton makes-up Sheryl Ameen for her part in “Teahouse.” Mr. Whitfield gives students last minute instructions before the opening of “Teahouse.”

senior Round-Up Corrals Prom Funds Seniors “rounded-up” their family and friends for a fun-filled day in the Old West Saturday, November 21. A wide variety of booths provided those present a chance to win sensational prizes, while the Wranglers held crime and vice to a minimum in their jail. AFS members provided hungry visitors with cold cider, candied apples, and home- made ice cream.. However, the Sigma Gamma Red Garter Saloon highlighted the entire af- fair as chorus girls, entertained the audience with singing, dancing, and skits. Afterwards, tired but happy Mustangs danced on into the night to the music of the Interns. The car smash was a big hit. Rick Huff and Craig Greenwood “escort” Bill Billing (Reata photographer) to the Wranglers’ jail.
