The Morning Exercise is the only tradition that students at North Shore enjoy (or, for a few of us now and again, put up with) on a very regular basis. Thrice weekly the school assembles in the auditorium for presentations of every imaginable kind, and the 1983-1984 year hardly was lacking in variety. For example: The Spanish II class performed a version of Little Red Riding Hood in Spanish with English narration. This was pretty graphic stuff. The wolf swallowed a little girl whole, and was soon after split from chin to gut to rescue her and — well it just isn ' t decent to go on like this. There was a preview of this year ' s vaudeville, the first nighttime performance in years, at Morning Ex. This one showed various acts showing off in a recreation of the vaudeville auditions — which were actually a lot rougher than they may have looked at Morning Ex. Joseph Hooker, president of Bennington College and an expert in medical ethics, came to Morning Ex. to present questions of ethics. In the course of his discussion, he posed an excruciating question: we were given a list of six critically ill patients and J their vital information, and were forced to choose which of the patients would receive a life support system. Hooker genuinely made us think. As a wise man once told me: if ' tain ' t broke, don ' t fix it. And the school followed tradition with a few Morning Exes that are annual favorites.- the Halloween show, the Lower School Christmas performance, performances of the Sangerbund, and other usuals. The illustrious W. F. Freisem read a John Cheever story about an academic who experiences a disastrous brush with baseball. History students who did not visibly bust a gut laughing at this droll anecdote sure weren ' t laughing come midterm . . . And so on and on. Students will remember this school year as a markedly lively one for the Morning Exercise. Those of you who ditched: you can ' t get flamenco dancing and bisected wolves in the downstairs lockerroom. —Matt Wilder 16
