North San Juan News
By Idabel Covert
Summer is officially upon us;
actually we've been having summer weather off and onfor some
time now, and the countryside
took on its usual parched, thirsty
aspect much _ sooner than it
should have, due to the very low
seasonal rainfall this year. All
we need now is 2 careless
smoker, a spark from a cooking
fire, or a maniac with arson on
his mind, and we will have some
real trouble here on the Ridge.
How different the prospects
would be if there were plenty
of water at hand.
The people here will have an
opportunity to assure themselves all the water they will
ever need. September 19 is
the date set for an election whose
passage can bring this about.
Hopefully this time we will all
act in our own enlightened selfinterest and vote to develop
our precious water rights. This
will probably be our last chance.
If we don't use these rights, they
revert to the State of California,
and will be lost forever to us.

factors that determine the success of a beef cattle operation.

investment in land per cow or
per beef unit; maximum utilization of pasture and roughages;
minimum outlay for supplemental fee; low labor costs; large
calf crops; and a low incidence
of disease and parasites,
A recent sample production

‘Damn Yankees’ to have
extra show Monday
Near. sell-out crowds and
a shortage of tickets for coming performances have prompted the community Players to
announce an extra performance
of "Damn Yankees" on Monday,
July 3. Tickets for all performances this weekend (Saturday, Sunday and Monday) are
available at Annarino's, Novak's, Sander's and Merrit's
or by calling 265-2143,
The fast moving musical
comedy has had good public reaction as attested to by the standing ovation the cast received
Saturday night. However, much
of the credit should go to the
supporting crew behind stage
that is responsible for the fast
pace of the show. Because the
Nevada Theater does not have
a front curtain, all of the fifteen or so scene changes must
be made in the black-outs. C.
L, Glass and Bruce Davison
keep track of the props required
for each scene by referring to
large printed instructions onthe
back of the flats. Careful handling is a must as several of the
props. are expensive art pieces
loaned to the show by Annarino's
of Nevada City.
With as little as 15 seconds
between scenes, the lighting
crew in the balcony headed by
Joe Geist must set the lighting
for the next scene and wait for
the "lights up" cue from stage
manager Dave Hall. Dave, who
also has a part in the show gives
directions to his crew via an
ingenious wierless microphone
concealed beneath his shirt, All
the while the make-up crew,
Sandre Hoffman and Miriam Jensen, are kept busy shuttling their
make up kits back and forth
between improvised dressing
rooms to keep up with the many
costume changes in the show.
But all this effort blends together and when the red lightflashes each night back stage
signifying the house is ready,
the overture begins and another
show gets under way running
smoothly and without hesitation,
Sitting out in front in the audience you would never guess at
the level of activity behind the
scenes.
