99 rc j LU' Own One of the achievements of the Senior Drama- tics Club this year was the production of the play Our Town under the direction of Mr. Roger Mos- vick. This was the first major production put on by the club, and with Judy Hamilton and Dan Bryan playing the leading roles it was a huge success. A complete supporting cast was composed of Marlys Weber, Jim Gloss, Jim Vogel, Pat Pedersen, Rosie Degnan, David Keith, Janet Falk, Keith Stanton, Bob Snow, Bob Staeheli, and Don Voita. The play tells about the life and love of a small town boy and girl. The range of time is from the high school days of George and Emily to the death of Emily several years later.
