Kids see Will and Wilsons Will Shakespeare could keep no better company than the contemporary ballad singers of Bill Wilson and Warren ' s own Ken Wilson. Students found that the u great bard had ageless lines when cleverly presented by actress Mary Krause at one of several convocations. ■■■MM Budding actors? Senior Mark Teegarden re- ceives encouragement from Ms. Krause as senior Jeff Bisesi examines the inside of his satchel. Seven stages. Using Warren students, Ms. Krause illustrates Shakespeare’s seven stages of man. To go or not to go”, that was the question many students asked in re- gard to the Shakespeare’s Ladies con- vocation on Oct. 13. A number of people find Shakespeare a bit hard to comprehend, but when Ms. Mary Krause presented Will’s works compre- hension was inevitable. Ms. Krause il- lustrated parts from MacBeth, Hamlet, and Romeo and Juliet. A few days after Ms. Krause’s per- formance, a popular musician arrived at Warren. With guitar in hand and microphone in tune”, Mr. Bill Wilson performed in-concert and introduced a new sound— Bill Wilson’s vocabules”. Attendance was not as numerous as hoped, but audience response was great. Another Wilson is a favorite at Warren.

Local- ized problems were those of bombs and murders in Speedway. A national problem was the worst mass murder in history, allegedly by John Gasy of Chi- cago. An international problem was a mass suicide by over 900 members of the People’s Temple cult in George- town, Guyana in South America. The first act of violence in Speed- way was the murder of prominent ma- tron Julia Scyphers. A man asking about a garage sale shot Mrs. Scyphers who had held the sale the day before. The next incidence was a series of eight bombings in one week, one of which caused the amputation of Carl DeLong’s leg and injured his wife. The other problem was the murders of four Burger Chef employees on the night of November 17. As of January 1979, none of the suspects had been arrested. The skeletons and decomposing bod- ies of approximately 32 men and boys were found in the crawl space under- neath John Gacy’s house and garage. Gacy reportedly told police that he had sexually molested and strangled about 32 boys. If true, it would be the bi- ggest mass murder in history, out- numbering the 27 deaths claimed by Dean Coral’s homosexual ring in 1974. The Guyana suicide by the cult was ordered by the Reverend Jim Jones, its leader, on November 21. Babies and children were first ordered to drink a poison, strawberry Flavour-aide laced with tranquilizers and cyanide. Then the adults came, some forced by the ring of guards surrounding the camp, others still believing in Jones’ ideas unto death, We’ll all fall tonight, but he’ll raise us tomorrow.” More than 900 cultists died, including Jones himself, in the death ritual brought on by the killing of five visitors to the camp, one of whom was Rep. Leo J. Ryan (D- Calif.). Fashion What are guys into? Well, clothes of course. But what kind? According to junior Jeff Friddle, salesperson at the Top Hat (Washington Square) in the way of material, The khaki look is really in this year.” If Jeff’s correct, we should be seeing guys wearing scarves underneath jack- ets this winter. The same as girls’ styles, the layered look is making it big with guys. When asked if he thought the styles for males had changed greatly in the past year, Jeff stated, Not really, guys’ styles don’t change all that much from year to year, unlike girls’ fashions.” As fast as female fashions change, it’s difficult to decide what’s going to be in style in a couple of months or even weeks,” agreed Jenny DeAtley and Angie Priest, both sophomores. Senior Linda Stites, salesperson at L.S. Ayres (Washington Square) said, Baggy blouses worn with either a rope or a thin belt around the waist are popular. So are pleated pants and mid-calf skirts with lace-up high heel shoes. Vests, net scarves, and ties with no-collar shirts are really selling the most.” Jenny DeAtley pointed out a few more styles that are in this year’s school fashions: Straight leg jeans with clogs or spiked heels, hats, and satin outfits.” When asked if she thought girls’ fashions were going in a cycle, Linda replied, Yes, because of the peasant, layered look, vests, and mid-calf skirts, but, most of all, the hats and scarves make me think that fashion is repeat- ing itself.” According to Linda, she likes the styles this year, but they’re much too expensive, You pay for more than you get, therefore, not being able to buy as many outfits as you’d like.” Mass Suicide.
