groups are from Mississippi,
Tennessee, and West Virginia.
Mr. Rawls feels that the
invitation to the festival was
extended as a result of the
success that the local drama
students had with their im
provised fables at the state
festival two years ago. As a
result the students are
reviving the fables and are
carrying them to the festival
in Cincinnati.
Students making the trip
include: Tony Brabham, Tom
Bennett, Ken Batcheler, Gary
Carter, Margaret Griffin,
Amy Maxwell, Paula Murrill,
Beverly Powell, Stuart
Rodwell and Stuart Vaughan.
Mr. Rawls and two
chaperones will accompany
the students to Cincinnati.
