Caught in the Act The Theatre of the Big Bend opened its twentieth season this past July. Three plays were performed throughout the summer, and each was a smashing success. The first performance of “The Mur¬ der Room,” a zany spoof of crime thrill¬ ers by Jack Sharkey, marked the 600th performance by the Theatre since its be¬ ginning in 1965. Chris and Linda Little teamed up as Edgar and Mavis Hollister.. Leo Magni, Sr. directed this play, which was filled with hilarious situations and off-the-wall humor. Performances continued to thrill audi¬ ences with the second production of the summer. “Vanities,” an adult comedy, was directed by Marianne Bertram. Leading roles were played by Judy Nutt, Darlene Freeman, and Kendall Bradley. Meredith Willson’s popular musical, “The Music Man,” was directed by Jo¬ anna Cowell. Joel Humphries and Edith Taylor made their Sul Ross debuts when they took the roles of Proffesor Harold Hill and Marian Paroo. Vital to the musical and dance performances were Dr. Rex Wilson, Ellen Boyd, Diana Walker, and Maria Zurek. Pam Wilton GOSSIP TIME - Penny Hardaway, Martha Molinar, Bryn Ward, Janice Gooden, and Ruth Palmero gather to talk about the new librarian in River City.

Starting it off Right The dorm room looks quite spacious when students first walk in and visualize how it will look after it has been filled with personal belongings. After the last load is finally carried up or down the stairs and stacked in the middle of the floor, however, the look is somewhat cluttered and messy. Dorm rooms seem destined to maintain this appearance as they continue to look slightly messy even after everything is unpacked. Dorm dwellers at Sul Ross found this to be true after the dorms opened on Sunday, August 25. Directors, with the help of RAs, checked each student in as others waited their turns, meeting new people and greeting old friends. Residents who previously lived in the dorms noticed a few changes this year. Lawrence Hall, for example, is no longer used. Mountainside on the other hand is housing more student. Also, women are living in the south side and men in the north, opposite of past years. Minor changes occur, but dorm life remains the same. The chaos of moving in is only the beginning. Pam Wilton SMILE - Angie Widdowfield pauses for a quick snap shot as she carries another load of belongings into her room at Mountainside. IT’S GOOD TO BE BACK School can be fun as Tripp Davenport demonstrates with Tia Lewis and Deon Lewis at Mountainside Dormitory. LOADED DOWN - Every available inch of space in this car was used to transport someone’s belongings to Sul Ross. Unloading will be the fun part. CHECKING IN - Cindy Cowan, an RA at Moun¬ tainside, tells Lilia Alvarado which room she has been assigned. ANOTHER LOAD - Alexia Simmons seems to be enjoying herself as she lugs another load up the stairs while moving in. WAITING FOR A ROOM Cindy Acosta and Tiffany Beaver wait in line to be checked into Mountainside Dormitory. 22 Moving In
