"Oklahoma"
Cast Selected |
By
Pamme Anderson |
Tryouts
for the musical production to be performed by members
of the student body were held during the week of January
23rd.
These
students receiving leading roles are: Nancy Temple,
Laurey; Donna Newberry, Aunt Eller; Jeannie Britt, Ado
Annie; Suzanne McMillan, Gertie; David Farr, Curley;
Vic Whitehurst, Ali Hakim; Ken Minamyer, Will; bob Glemon,
Andrew; Mike Kelly, Slim; Tim Bassler, Ike; and Dick
Roberts, Cord.
The
chorus consists of 15 singers, 11 of whom are girls,
the remain 4 boys. (More boys are needed in the chorus,
so if you are a male, and are interested in trying out
for this, please contact Mr. Hotaling.)
There
are to be several dances throughout the performance,
so all the dancers that auditioned will be used in at
least one number.
With
the excellent choice of characters, and the hard practice
and rehearsing that is to follow, it looks as though
this musical is destined to be a top-notch success.
Keep
in touch with the Wi-Pa-Hi-Sc; you'll get details concerning
the progress, players, and performance as soon as they
re ready for the press. |

JUNIOR
CLASS |
| Pst

will be Friday, April 28th.
The
Prom committee isn't saying much, but from their
expressions, everything seems to be "snapping
and popping." |

the shower!

Jan
Griffen, Editor of Meridian, Miss.'s high school newspaper,
"The Wildcat", visited our fair city week before last. This
beautiful platinum blonde has been most busy through her high
school years. She was editor of Meridian's Jr. High newspaper,
a cheerleader, winner of the DAR Award, and the American Legion
Award, a straight A student, member of Homecoming Court, and
voted "Most Beautiful" in her Junior Year. As a senior, Jan
won the Jr. Miss Meridian Contest, and placed third in the
Jr. Miss Mississippi contest.
How
did Jan like Florida? She loved it. "The Floridians I've met
are so much more carefree than people in Meridian!" Jan also
noticed that Florida girls dress for school more casually
than Miss. girls, whereas, the boys in Winter Park dress sharper
than the Meridian boys who think nothing of wearing a torn
and tattered football jersey to classes.
How
do the schools differ? Quite a lot. Meridian's High School
has a Jr. College connected with it which provides extra activities
for the high-school students, also. There is a lounge complete
with snack bar and jukebox where students may go during their
free periods for refreshments as well as dancing. Modern dancing
is a course taken by most of the girls. The boys have 7 coaches
to lead them onto victory. Not bad, is it? The football stadium
is college sized and one of the largest in the state.
Although,
Meridian's school is more advanced than dear old Winter Park,
Jan loved every minute of her visit here and is looking forward
to another trip to the "Sunshine State" this summer! |

| One
of Ripley's famous cartoons pictured a plain bar of iron worth
$5. This same bar when made into horseshoes would be worth
$10.50. If made into needles, it would be worth $3,285. And
if turned into balance springs for watches, it's worth becomes
$250,000. The same is true of another kid of material -- YOU! |
