The many dances and choral numbers required hours of practice from the 65-member cast. A 21- member orchestra provided music. Crew and make-up members spent their time rounding up materials for the production. Advisors for the production were Miss Carol Ann Connor, Miss Pris Benson, and Mrs. Renva Watterson.

North Little Rock distinguishes itself from its sister city Little Rock with facilities such as the 71 stores in McCain Mall, the 1575 square acres of Burns Park and our very own Northeast High School. These were all very much a part of our community in North Little Rock. Students had no trouble finding things to do in NLR, if anything there were to many choices. The cruising crowd wasted gal- lons upon expensive gallons of gas when trying to decide which of the fast food dinners would fit their fancy or which of the six theaters they would see the latest flick in. Yet, what would a community be without a community center, and NLR had a dandy one. For reasonable fees members of the community were able to take lessons in everything from judo to belly dancing. Yes, our town of 19.20 square miles may not be New York, or Chicago but it's our Home Sweet Home.
