Opinions may often vary Shelley Lonstad daydreams about that special person in her life. Becky Thompson talks to a friend about the upcoming weekend plans. Val Saucedo gets ready for her Friday night plans. Trying to decifer what someone else is thinking can be quite hard. Everyone, whether a boy or a girl, 50 years old or 10, has their own opinion about everything in their surroundings. Girls all have a different opinion about that certain guy.” Senior Bonnie McCartin says, ”1 like a guy who has dark hair, tall, understanding. and who is honest.” Nice looking means a lot to some people, but to others a personality is the most important thing to them. Guys also have different opinions about ”the girl of their dreams.” Most guys like a nice looking girl that isn’t too dizzy to handle. Being able to make a stance and live up to your own opinion may be hard, but eventually you should admit what you believe in; you never know, your opinion could one day run the country.

This year’s musical production, which was performed in the South Campus auditorium on February 5 and 6, was Grease,” a modern 50's musical by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. Grease is the story of two young teens in the late 50's who meet during the summer. One is Danny Zuko, leader of the Burger Palace Boy’s, played by Steve Faramelli. The other is Sandy, a sweet and innocent girl who falls in love with Danny. Sandy was played by Michelle Mulcahey. The two end up going to the same high school. Danny acts as if he doesn’t even know Sandy. The rest of the play deals with Sandy and Danny trying to go out even though they have exactly opposite reputations. The final scenes show Sandy, who skillfully pleased crowds with her singing. She ends up wearing a leather jacket . . . and Danny’s ring. The play itself was a success and it was very easy for the crowd to relate to, not only for the sold out student matinee, but also for the evening crowd, which mostly consisted of parents, friends, and rela tives of the cast and crew. The cast started work on the musical one week before Christmas vacation. It worked about one or two hours each night. The crew also did a fine job working on Saturdays for the first part and every day after school for two weeks before the play. Michael Schmidt was the Director while Senior Lynn Parker took charge as Assistant Director. CAST Steve Faramelli (Danny) gets all choked up over Michelle Mulcahey (Sandy). Eugene (Jamie Anderson) gives the go ring tails sign. Nervousness sets in as the cast and crew get ready for the big night.
