Bic HIT IS THE
ANNUAL PLAY BY
JUNIOR CLASS

The annual junior class play, given
last evening at the high school audi
forum, proved to be one of the cley-
crest playlets Yet produced by pupils
this year. In three acts, the comedy
cite took up about two hours. The
curtain rose at little after eight
and went down on the final scene at
1915.
The acting of the characters, from
start to finish, was we'll up to the
standard of high school production.
Every actor knew his or her lines
very well, and no disgracing blunders
were made On the whole, Adele
Newcomer. business manager of the
play, feels that the work of pro-
cueing the playlet. from d bust
ness standpoint has borne fruit, and
the junior treasury will swell with
the proceeds.
Helen Symonds, advertising man
ager, should be given a great deal
Of credit for her work in the publci-
ty line. House Manager Lloyd Elsie
also deserves praise for his good
work in seeing that the audience was
seated without confusion; that tho
| decorations were executed right, and
that the stage effects and lighting
| were carried out to the letter.
The cast, too, merits award, all
doing their best toward making the
evening a pleasant one for the audi
ence
