Curtain Rises On Fun Steam was already rising to the ceiling of the Bethany High School Auditorium on Friday, September 6, when the curtain finally went up to begin an- other anxiously anticipated night of music and skits. In keeping with the class' futuris- tic theme, Edgar Finck opened the evening by performing the theme song from the motion picture 2001 on the piano. A variety of talent was exhibited by various members of the sophomore class. Roger Oliver took the audi- ence back to their kindergar- ten days with his version of Mr, Roger's Neighborhood. Vocalist Tammy Looney fol- lowed with Great Is the Lord. Next, Cameron Grubert and Royce Hathcock made their first, of what was to be several, appearances as Elmo and Wilbur. The sophomore class' ver- sion of ZZ Top's Sharp Dressed Man pleased, if not thrilled, the female portion of the audience. Jeff Cox, Darren Woodard, and Mike Baker amused all with their song Fish Heads, while Brad Es- tep lost more than he bar- gained for in a skit with Lisa Silvey. Lyane Nelles performed You Light Up My Life to per- fection in sign language. Julie Tompkins and Company ri- valed Manhattan Transfer with their original composition of Boy From BNC. Suzanne Moyer and Karyn Olson sang about the boys they've loved before, which seemed to in- clude half the sophomore class. Between acts, the crowd was treated to the ongoing battle between mailman Tresa Mur- ray and a little 6-inch attack dog. The evening closed on a touching note with Devon Har- well leading an all-male choir in Dead Puppies. The rest of the class joined the choir on stage and together Qwith hands claspedb, sang the last chorus - finishing off an entertaining, yet questionably, talented show. L Follies 15

Yeah, I hate it when that happens, Cameron Elmo Grubert laments to his counterpart Royce Wilbur Hathcock. Using long nasal hair for flossing teeth was one of many off-color topics they discussed. A sharp dressed man is what Cheri Wilson is crazy about, along with the rest of the BNC women.

Can you say ignorant fresmen? mocks Roger Oliver, alias Mr Rogers as he desperately tries to remember how to tie his shoe Thrilling many freshmen males with her lovely voice was Julie Tompkins. Darren Woodard, however, remained unmoved. .

Inauguration Hoopla The official term of office for our nation's President occurs after he has been in office for a while. The same is true for our newly elected president, Ponder Gilliland. President Gilliland was appointed and began his term later in the summer of this year. Wednesday, October 16, he was officially sworn in as chief administrator of BNC in a special chapel service. The inauguration was attended by the majority of the current faculty, many past faculty members, friends, and family. In addition, the student body was informally invited by having the inauguration during a chapel service. Predictably, many people opted to skip this event upon realization that chapel cards were not taken up. At any rate, their loss was the gain of the many others who attended this seldom seen event. 16 Inauguration
