Li’l Abner The Spring Musical “Li’l Abner” was a great success and will definitely go down in history. As they say, “The show must go on;” and it did go on even though during the second perfor- mance, the power went out because of a thun- derstorm. The cast sang and danced with flashlight as their spotlight and stole the hearts of their audi- ence. Many said “it was the best Musical ever.” Top Right: Tell us about your triple whammy' Middle Right: It’s a typical day in Dog Patch U S A !

DIRECTOR’S COMMENTS “What pleased me most was that the cast had fun presenting the show and that the audience could tell that they were enjoying themselves. Hopefully lost in the final success were the sweat and tears that went into the practices. I hope that in 30 years all the mem- bers of the cast will be able to say with a smile, 'I was in Li'l Abner when I was in high school’.” MR. THOMAS SWEGLE Top Left: Do tell Olin Morrow! Top Left: Annette Browning shows some disbelief as Andy Stone declares his love for her. Lower Left: Tom Hartman is careful not to step on Carrie Jarrett’s toes Bottom Middle: Bob Stanley does the “Scarecrow” Bottom Right: Sandy Bell and Scott Foval sing-a-long as they show the audience that they know how to square dance.
