Loss of lights leaves King in darkness Every musical has embarrassing moments while it is being presented, Camelot was no exception. One of the sets broke when it was to go on stage next; the dog Horrid stole the show; and King Arthur was left singing in the dark several times when the lights went off too soon. Camelot was the musical chosen for the 1973 production. Mr. Tom Feit, head of the drama depart- ment, felt that he had the right personalities for the parts. Also the orchestra was ripe for a show of this character. Approximately 70 members were in the cast; nine main characters, 12 subordinate, and 50 were in the chorus. The drama department was faced with a tew prob- lems in putting on Camelot. One problem was creat- ing the right costumes to fit the period. Another problem was designing the set to provide an efficient and free flowing action from scene to scene. Despite the problems and mistakes, the produc- tion of Camelot was successful, both financially and artistically.

IMITATING ED SULLIVAN, Rick Ponton, Jay Beranek and Rick McBride introduce the acts at the Follies. CATHY COONING AND Lisa Fry burst into song between acts at the Follies. Talents create Follies Boxing matches, dancing, singing and comedy skits were only a few of the wide variety of acts performed at the 1973 W. C. Follies. The Student Council presented the annual Follies and all of the work was done by the students themselves. Each act was auditioned before co-coordina- tors Nancy Lamb and Wendy White who select- ed the best and most unusual routines. The group Ooze, the last to perform, re- ceived a standing ovation as did Bart Ping for his singing of the song “Aubrey.” WEDM sponsored a yoyo contest. The finalists dis- played their yo-yoing talents before the audi- ence. The overwhelming applause of the au- dience proved Dave Harwell to be king of the yo-yoers. 20 Student Life
