Lab Assistants Buckle Down Once again this year the lab assistants were of valuable service to the Science Department. In fact, ac- cording to Mr. Layton, they were put to work even harder than ever this year. 'The lab-oriented science pro- gram would not function without them, he commented. The job of the lab assistants was to prepare for and clean up after the lab experiments which were an integral part of science classes, especially Tri-science and Biology. They also aided teachers by doing clerical work, helping students and taking inventory. To be eligible for the lab assistants program, the students had to have had one year of high school science and be at least a sophomore. This year's eleven assistants were chosen in a highly selective process based on their ability and their interest in science. The lab assistants this year were senior Chris Olsen, juniors Kim Archer, Donna Rizzo, Mike Stoveken, Mike Vespa and sophomores Bill Amann, Joe Ashman, Craig Burns, Peter Williams and Sherry Barber. While the Science Department relied heavily on the lab assistants, the students themselves also benefi- ted. Bill Amann praised, It's a really good experience.

Juniors Delight With A Unique “Comedy of Errors” Fabulous and full of fun is how Mrs. Todt described this year's Junior Play, A Comedy of Errors. The comedy, written by William Shakespeare, was cleverly staged by Mr. Joe Russo. The play incorporated the traditional scenes of the work, yet many of the characters and costumes in the play were made more exciting and modern. Mr. Russo showed the audience how Shakespeare's works can be adapted to fit any age. The plot of the play revolved around the characters played by Seniors Terry Flynn, Tim Ticehurst, Steve Siegler, and Dylan Johnson, two sets of twins who were separated at birth. The production was about the confusion that resulted when both sets of twins wound up in the same town. The stage crew once again did a wonderful job. The scenery was com- plete with balconies and trap doors that added excitement to the chase scenes in the play. The buildings of the town were very realistic, showing the vast talent the stage crew possessed. Though the play had a small cast, the actors and actresses involved managed to put on an excellent show. The production incorporated everything from well-read soliloquys to hilarious chase scenes. This year's Junior Play was once again steeped in talent and enjoyed by all. OPPOSI11 PAGI.
