SPRING MUSICAL Half A Hundred Work On Finian's Rainbow The American dream of rags to riches was the subject of this year's spring musical, Finian's Rainbow. A broadway hit of 20 years ago and more recently the subject of a mo- vie, the play was the story of an incorrigible old Irishman, Finian McLonergan, and his daughter Sharon who have come to America to make their fortune using a crock of gold stolen from the leprechauns. Cast in the title role of Finian was Senior Steve Holgate. Leslie Pyl lilted through the singing chores in the female lead of Sharon, who has reluctantly followed her father across an ocean and half a continent and is kept ignorant of the stolen crock until it's too late to give it back. Romantic lead was Dave Skoglund as Woody, a young Southerner who falls in love with Sharon. Tom Brosy played Og, the leprechaun who has been sent to retrieve the pilfer- ed crock. Major roles were also played by Dave Kahr, Bruce Stevens, Helle Riiskjaer and Raylene Barrett. Co-directors Larry Daw and George Koch handled an enormous cast and crew of almost 50 people through ZW months of rehearsal, almost the entire spring. The final play of the year, Finian's Rainbow played May 8 and 9 to capacity crowds. Sunny ...... Casey Nortness Buzz Collins ..... Dave Kahr Sheriff ....... Paul Garrett lst Sharecropper .........

MAY WEEK Aloha Featured Here As THS Farewell Dance A Hawaiian farewell, '6Aloha, provided the theme for the last dance of the year. Sponsored by Project Hawaii, the dance climaxed this year's May Week activities. Earlier that day, students witnessed the crowning of Paulette Sedler as May queen. Included in the assembly was the annual court review and colorful performances by High- land Lassies and Tigerettes. Lassies gave a new and different dance, heartily jogging to a fast sailor number. Tigerettes, hoping to start a tradition, presented a review of all the dances they performed during the school year. Wednesday of May Week, students were let loose to en- joy a morning of field day. Starting off with a bike-tricycle race, the events moved quickly to an inter-class tug-of-war. which the class of '71 won for the second year. A back- wards relay and egg push were next with the egg toss ending sunny side-up on some heads. The big crab war was can- celled, when the girls called for equal rights over the tug- of-war. Senior girls proved to be the feminine victors. In the end, sophomores won 31 pep trophy points, seniors 30 and juniors 29. Besides Queen Paulette and escort Matt Meyer, the court included Seniors Kristi Arneson, Al Ashcroft, Chris St. Clair, Tom Mardockg Liz Vasey, Dean Clark. Juniors were Lori Knebel, Randy Burke, Dulcy Neeley, Kim Slocum. Terry Klang and Scott Marcy represented the sophomore class. WALKING OFF WITH THE SHOW Qabovel is definitely what Mike DiGioia does during May Assembly. Here he flirts with an embar- assed court member, Steve Ohm. BLOSSOMS FOR A BUDDING BEAUTY Oeftj are presented to Queen Paulette Sedler during the May Assembly. Helping tiny flower girl is Tom McGuire, the master of ceremonies.
