M.'s “Be- gin The Begin.” ... and Black and White The talent show even- ing began with the crazy antics of the three senior “announcers” Brandon Bonser, Ross Prevatt, and Grady Daniels. Their in- troductions brought out a number of truly talented acts. Musical ability was the most emphasized talent. The beautiful voices of Leslie Hayward and Kel- ley Ruth sent chills up the spines of attentive mem- bers of the audience. Stu- dents were astounded that so many of their fel- low classmates were so gifted in the musical in- strument department. As at least four acts were bands consisting of ap- proximately twenty members of Midlothian’s student body. Muffy Cave followed in her sister's footsteps by dancing her way across the stage, while Kim Mitchell and Carol Bode- man entertained with one-liners and bizarre phrases. When the final act de- parted the stage and the trio of announcers said farewell, the audience had grown in awareness and admiration of the tal- ent possessed by the evening's performers. 17 Talent Show Student Life
