The lack of a classroom in which to congregate made meetings almost impossible, but Carol Rahimi, organizer of the 1986 Palladium, kindly donated her home in order for the yearbook to be completed. In addition, the lack of people with previous experience on the yearbook staff made the early weeks a bit confusing. However, the com- mittee soon rose above this hindrance. Anne Griffith, as editor-in-chief, deserves to be commend- ed for all the time and effort she selflessly put forth. And, as usual, other activities prohibited many members from being available for constant participation. However, with the aid of all the contributors who spent time writing articles, typing, and giving encouragement, the yearbook was completed on time and is a fine example of the determination of a dedicated few.

Conrad Birdie comes to Northville High Bye Bye Birdie, this spring ' s musical, was directed by newcomer David Drobot. Although the production started late, the performance came together wonderfully in ' a healthy, normal, American way. ' Hutch Kerns played Conrad Birdie, a popular Elvis-Type 50 ' s singer who was drafted into the Army. As a promotion for him, his managers Albert, Russ Rothermel, and Rosie, Mina Rahimi, picked one lucky girl to receive the ' last kiss ' from Conrad. Karia Pearson played the chosen one — Kim MacAffee. Nancy Merrifield and Jim Chappell were her parents and Jason Merecki her brother. Kim ' s steady, Hugo Peabody, was portrayed by Ian Chowdhury. The above parts combined with thirty more ' fine, upstanding, healthy ' high school kids to ' put a happy face ' on all who saw the play. Once again Northville High School students showed that they have ' a lot of livin ' to do ' with a top quality performance. KarIa Pearson is all smiles as she thinks about her date with Conrad Birdie, while her brother Jason Merecki and her mother Nancy Merrifield look on. Mina Rahimi — Rosie — gets a little friendly advice from Albert ' s mother — Laura Hepler. Hutch Kerns — Birdie — receives instruc- tions from his manager Albert Peterson played by Russ Rothermel. 42
