Seniors explore state At 8:30 A.M. on a frosty February morning, a large group of seniors left Tippecanoe Valley on the long trip to Indianapolis. After about two and one half hours of riding, the seniors arrived in Indianapolis. The purpose of the trip was to learn more about Indiana’s government, and most of the seniors felt that they really learned a lot. They watched the house and the senate in action, but the executive branch was busy fin- ishing some last minute business, and could not be disturbed. The sen- iors also visited the Indiana Supreme Court and talked with the highest ranking police officer in Indiana. To relax after their busy morning, the seniors visited Lafayette Mall. After this trip, the seniors were also turned loose in Washington D.C., where they saw several of that city's many breath-taking sights. They vis- ited the Smithsonian, one of the na- tion’s largest museums. Some of the seniors made the climb to the top of the Washington Monument, and the spectacular view made the trip well worthwhile. The seniors also visited the Lincoln Monument, the Jefferson Memorial, the Capitol, and the White House. The trip was sponsored and chap- eroned by Mr. Wayne Cumberland and Mrs. Juna Graham. The seniors pose proudly in front of a monu- ment near the state building. Holly Allen. Dana Stavedahl, and Robert Reed relax on the sidewalk in front of the state cap- itol. Christine Duncan and Royce Wright try to stay awake on the way back from Indianapolis. (With varying degrees of success.) Robert Reed looks like he is posing in hopes that someone will make a statue of him. (Matt Brown)

“Oh Promise Me” MacBeth and Company’s fall play this year was Oh, Promise Me, the story of how a young, affluent play- boy deals with the situation of having both of his fiancees in his home at the same time. The unfortunate (or fortunate, de- pending on how it’s looked at) play- boy was played by Rick Ralston. His fiancees were played by Luann Knoop and Teresa Wallace. Rick's nervous aunt was played by Marilyn King, and his sister by Shelly Utter. The household help was John Bryant as the haughty, unruffable butler and Annette Swick as the typi- cal irish maid. Scott Wallis played her long lost love. Steph Murphy was the butler’s beautiful daughter and Rick's eventually wife. Matt Brown played Rick’s impatient lawyer. Andrea Lamar was one of Rick’s prospective mother-in-law, and Diane Good was the mother of a baby Rick “borrowed” to convince Teresa that he was married. The cast members and directors should be congratulated for doing an excellent job on this very complicat- ed plot. Teresa Wallace (Patsie Linden) moans to her mother. (Andrea Lamar) about the rough life of a dancer. Teresa Wallace (Patsie Linden) clings lovingly to Rick Ralston (Barry Hollis) while he franti- cally tries to escape. Cast Photo: Diane Good.
