46 to Guthrie Theater group sees two plays On October 22, a bus carrying 43 Roosevelt students and 3 faculty spon- sors departed for Minneapolis on the eleventh annual Guthrie Theater trip. Arriving in the early afternoon, the group saw Noel Coward ' s Design for Living, then were dropped off at a shopping center for supper. They dined at various eateries such as My Pi and The Jolly Troll. In the evening, Oliver Goldsmith ' s comedy She Stoops to Conquer was presented. Drama teacher R.C. Anderson and Mr. and Ms. Bill Freimuth accom- panied the students. Cost for the trip was $22, including the price of bus fare and tickets for the two plays. The trip is held to give students the opportunity to see experimental productions of classic plays performed by a professional acting company. Guthrie Theater Trip. ROW 1: Lori Utterback.

Sponsored by the UN Association, the purpose of the trip is to introduce students to the UN and the government in Washington, D.C., and also to promote unity among the students of Polk County. The trip was taken over spring break. Only juniors were selected so that members of the group would be about the same in age and interests. Many of the friendships started during the trip carry over into the students ' senior year. Juniors who applied for the trip were accepted on the basis of academic record, extracurricular ac- tivities, and recommendations of the school. About 250 applied; 148 could be accepted. Students on the trip spent one day at the UN, and later met with their Congressman. While in New York City, the group took a 4V»-hour bus tour of Manhatten, and saw the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, and Radio City Music Hall. One evening they attended the Broadway production of Annie. Tours in Washington, D.C. included the Washington, Jefferson, and Lincoln Monuments, the Capital, the Smithso- nian Institute, the Library of Congress, the National Archives, the FBI Building, the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, the Naval Academy, Mount Vernon, the Washington Cathedral, Ford ' s Theater, and the Kennedy Center.
