This was called tee-peeing and was fun for those who did it. To those who had to clean up the mess. it was no fun at all. When there appeared nothing better to do. students went to fun parks such Frontier City. White Water, miniature golf courses or skating rinks. These filled the void left by boredom. Fast food restaurants like McDonald's flourished with business from teens wanting something to eat. When fast food sounded un- appetizing but eating outdidnlt, family style restaurants provided a home cooked meal away from home. Whether paying S5 at a theater or 51,99 at a movie ren- tal shop for a movie. students found a way to be caught up with suspense or let their im- aginations run free. l look for a movie that could be an Oscar nominee. said junior Micki Trimble. l also read the reviews in the papers to get a good idea about the movie.

A Propping It No chair, no pictures, no backdrop, nothing to look at. It is very difficult to imagine a play, movie, television show or even a commercial with no props. Everything from a little pen or pencil to the tallest building on the set had some significance to a drama production. Without props, actors and their voices would be the only things visible to the audience. In order to achieve just the right effect, producers and directors spend thousands of dollars on just one movie or play. Though a drama teacher does not have the same type of funding for her projects, a high school dramatic play or musical is no less important than that of wood or Broadway produc- tion. Props are used to draw the audience into whatever is happening on the stage so that they will be more aware of the plot. Props are often either ex- pensive or difficult or time- consuming to make, but a necessary element to the production. Without props, all the work of memorizing lines, blocking each scene and rehearsing would more times than not become less than effective. eep Sleep.
