Aunt Eller .... KLJKH MAI A surrey with the fringe on top visited the campus when the musical production of Oklahoma was presented in late February as a ioint effort of the theatre and musi- cal departments. The musical centered around Oklahoma in its pioneering stages before it became a state. Oklahoma was a combination comedy and love story based on Lyn Riggs Green Grow the Lilacs. The story revolved around a young girl, Laurey, and her chang- ing romance with a young man, Curly. A third party, farmhand Jud Frey, became involved, causing a number of problems for the couple. ll l lfgf A3 I if X 24 - Student Life The long anticipated spring musi- cal combined students' singing, dancing, and acting talents into a show that was well received, play- ing to a full house for four evenings in succession.

Joy: defeat for Homecoming I 976 Cries of ioy, tears of defeat. Homecoming 1976 will be one to remember for senior Pam Allbrit- ten as she was named Homecom- ing Queen during half-time ceremo- nies of the Plano vs. Denison foot- ball game. It will also be remem- bered as Plano's first Homecoming loss in eight years. Plano was defeated l4-9. Members of the Queen's court, escorted by their fathers, included seniors Audrey Bickham, Mary Davis, and Julie Young and iuniors Robyn Grigsby and Celeste Hickey. The game was the last Wildcat game to be played in the familiar surroundings of Wildcat Stadium since next year's games will be played in the new stadium in North- west Plano. Dream On was the theme of the annual dance where live music was provided by Reunion and the Queen and her attendants took the traditional honor dance. A7 Homecoming
