Every play seems to be better than the last one. The lines those people have to learn is unbelieveable. Even from the front row, there's no evidence of prompting. In "The Boor", the only comedy, even the hard of hearing wouldn't have had difficulty in hearing John Raw lins as Gregari Stepanovitch Smirnov. He screamed and hollered about his debtors namely Mrs. Popov, Mary Abrams, whose husband had died owing him for hay. He needed the money to pay the interest on his note, "today and not the day after tomorrow". Women's "moods" also pained him. There was dueling in words as well as with guns. He dealt harshly w ith the poor old faithful servant, Luke, played by Bob Jespersen. He practically had a heart attack as the two carried on with their dueling and he begged Smirnov to leave. mustang jv's drop close game to Scotties Heppner Junior Varsity seemed destined for victory Friday night as they led McEwen for the first three quarters and were playing one of tneir finest ball games. The Scotties came roaring back, however, and hung on for a 3 point victory (69 - 66). The margin was 1 point at the buzzer, but a late foul resulted in two free throws for McEwen with no time remaining. Jerry Gentry led the Mustang atack with 20 points. He scored 16 points in the first half to spearhead the J.V.'s 37 - 31 halftime lead. Dave McLeod, Tom Roberts and Mike Mills also hit in double figures for the Mustangs with 10 points apiece. Heppner shot .395 from the field to .492 for McEwen. The local boys were able to convert 60 percent of their foul shots to 69 percent for the winners. For the first time this season, the Mustangs were outrebound ed ( 40 - 33 ) . John Kilkenny had 9 rebounds for the home team. Line Scores: 66 - Heppner: Gentry 20, McLeod 10, Roberts 10, Mills 10, Kilkenny 7, Dunlap 4, Chitty 2, Cutsforth 2, Harrison 1. 69 - McEwen: Beamer, J. 25, Crone 18, Meinhart 10, Beamer, 0, Sinclair 6, Warner 2, Allen, Quaempts, Jones, Shippen- tower. 4 u a commukut beitci t The Gardener, John llealy and the Coachman, Lloyd Wilson, armed with pitchfork and hoe, entered to drive Smirnov off to find the two principals in each others arms. The Boor was directed by Mrs. Bill Rawlins. Helping behind the scenes were Debbie Vocom, prompter; Linda DeSpain, make up and Dave McLeod, Tom Roberts and Jim Slusher, lighting. Halroin Scene This was a 6ad one. The young man, Jim Cutsforth, had appar ently been killed in an automo bile accident a few weeks before his marriage to a girl, Luanne Kelly. He had led the care-free, irresponsible life. As he sits invisible and unheard with his friend, Greg Davidson, in the balcony during his funeral service, he over hears what several of his friends really thought of him. A mother and daughter were Linda Baker and Cheryle Turner and a husband and wife. Randy Morris and Shannon Kelly" He vehemently denied their accusations of being selfish, foolhardy and reckless. He watched his girl friend cry and the conversation that took place from one then the other in the balcony following the ser vice was poignant. Cigar chewing Jeff Marshall, a gangster who was taking the "lonE" journey with the young man introduced the only humor in the tragic story. "Overtones" The final play shows two sides of two women Harriet, Patty Hughes, and Margaret, Lynda Slusher. The second side of the women was cleverly protrayed bv veiled counterparts, Linda Baker and Mary Abrams who said what the other two would have said if they hadn't been so polite. Balcony Scene and Overtones were both directed by Mrs. Slusher. Helping behind the scenes of Balcony Scene and Overtones were Patty Hughes, prompter; Jim Slusher, Randy Morris, Luke Padberg, set designs; Jim Slusher, Dave McLeod, Tom Roberts, lighting; Linda DeSpain, Lynda Slusher and Luanne Kelly, make-up. At intermission the Sopho more Class served homemade pie and coffee in the Home Ec. room. The program listed special thanks to the following: Hepp ner Gazette-Times, Sophomore Class, Mrs. Richard Meador, Mrs. Rod Murray, Mr. and Mrs. Bob Abrams, Mrs. Lynn Humphreys, Bobette Jones and Case Furniture. Juvenile Code Reviewed With Youth Council Tom Sullivan spoke on the Juvenile Code at the Youth Advisory Council meeting Thursday evening at the Mor row County Court House. Mr. Sullivan is executive secretary of the Governor's Commission on Youth. "The Interim Com mittee worked diligently on the code," he said. At first they planned to revise the code but in the end rewrote it. Half of the Juvenile code are laws con cerning young people, detention and curfew. The other half deals with Children's services, adop tion, foster homes, abused and neglected children. A child is considered as a child until 18 years of age. The first Chapter of the code outlines the philosophy. Every attempt is made to preserve the integrity of the family. Rights and interests of all concerned are considered and for the first time the welfare of the child takes precedence over the parent. The child may have an attorney to defend him. It is very technical and is very specific what the Juvenile departments, the Children's Services and police may do and how they can work. Critics say it cuts out alternatives and lengthens procedure and all the time the child may be sitting in detention somewhere. It doesn't lend itself to flexibility. It repeals the state-wide curfew law. The Code is HB 2050 and is in the Judiciary Committee which is holding hearings twice a week. It may be brought out of committee late in March. On the other hand it may never get out of committee. Juvenile Judges and Juvenile workers meeting recently fav ored parts of the code. They approved the section that re quired that all Juvenile Court dispositions must be reviewed annually. If not, children are known to have been left in foster homes and m-ver united with his family.
