Fa ther in teifers with plans LIGHTS, CURTAIN, ACTION. That and many other backstage sayings were heard Nov. 10, 11, and 12 as the Harrison drama students pre- sented the fall production iiOut of the Frying Pan. tiOut of the Frying Pan was a comedy written by Francis Swann. The play took place in a New York apartment that was shared by six struggling young actors as a way to save money. The hitch to this was the fact that three of the room- mates were female and three male. A problem arose due to the fact that one girl's father was the presi- dent of the Crusaders of Decency. Throughout the play, the actors spent much time trying to get a pro- ducer who lived above them to watch a sample of their acting. The six actors were Chris Bell, Susan Borries, Lydia Breunig, Kristen Lee, Kevin Thornton, and Marc Wilson. When asked how he felt the play went, Wilson commented, Hlt was a good learning experience for us all. Most of the actors in the play had never had a role in a production on the high school level before. There Cast of Fall Production 4 Play were several understudies and stu- dent teachers behind the scenes learning a lot from the experi- ence.

Basketball; 'Mfantastic! The varsity basketball team began their year by defeating Washington Cath- olic and continued their winning streak with a regu- lar season record of 19 un'ns and one loss and by win- ning the city championship. A major contribution to the team's success was Coach Jerrill Vandeventer. He was someone they could talk to when they needed someone there to listen. liCoach Vandeventer did a real nicejob of supporting the team; he was always there when we needed him, commented Kevin Tapp, junior. Coach Vandeventer was also able to pull the team together when a stroke of bad luck came their way. tTOP RlGl'lTl While looking for help, sophomore Brent Kell drib- bles past South Spenceris de- fense. lMlDDLEl Trying to defend his po- sition, senior Calbert Cheaney waits for a pass. iRlGHTl During the sectionals, senior Jay Stewart shoots a freeth- row. iFAR RlGHTl RESERVE BASKET- BALL: iFront Rowl T.

Cheaney commented, llWhen l was out of the game, the team continued playing well; they gave it their all and did their best. Concerning the sectional loss against Bosse, Cheaney said, llWe had a late start, and we just couldn't come back in timeli The reserve team had a successful season with a 16-4 record, same as last year's reserve team. The reserve team lost only one city game against Bosse. The freshman basketball team ended their season with seven wins and nine losses. By Cindi Newman
