A turnabout dance, the nervous- ness of inviting dates had worn off and the enchantment began as the Brookston Fowler Orchestra provided the dance music for the second year in a row. Spring came alive with the handmade orange and yellow decorations throughout the room. Mark Sauer and Kathy Carr were voted Athletic King and Queen, and all danced to Loving You after the crowning. Mrs. Cath called the dance a success: One hundred and thirty couples were there. We were delighted with the turnout! - ill: III: lil: IIII ilk Sill E E 2111 lili il? 2121 il? :III ff McCain.

Six weeks of nightly rehearsals proved worth- while for the May 9 and 10 performances of Fiddler on the Roof. Cast, crew members, and pit orchestra delivered two spectacular performances, both receiving standing ova- tions, in spite of a few technical difficulties including a mishap with the grand curtain during the Friday night show. The breaking of century-old jewish traditions and the oppression of minorities were displayed in this musical through the character of Teyve, a poor dairyman, and his family in the fic- titious Russian village of Anatevka. Backed by a talented chorus, strong performances by the leads Tevye fBrad Grayl and Golde fLela Patel, their daughters Tzeitel fDebbi Smithj, Hodel fTerri Foltzl, and Chava fTracy Nelsonj and the girls' husbands Motel tMony Chasej, Percheck tlon Richeyl, and Fyedka lSteve Pruittl made Fiddler one of Speedway's finest musicals. Highlights of the show included a hidden Skip Schro- lucke elevating the ghost Fruma-Sarah Deb- bie Grahaml in the dream scene and the candlelight wedding of Motel and Tzeitel. This production was complemented by the dance routines of the entire chorus chore- ographed by SHS graduate Iill Schurr, hard- working crews, and the devoted efforts of music directors Mr. Al Spangler, and Mr. Bob Wise, and assisted by dramatics director Senior Cary McCormick. ::r::r:n::s:1r:s: iiiililililfliiqj Few people realize the number of students involved in the production of a rnusicall Bill Fox adjusts Kenny Marsh s beard.
