JUNIORS TO PRESENT
PLAY OF SUCCESSFUL
RUNS IN BIG CITIES

The juniors of the high school
will present their play, '"The Man
of the Hour" on Wednesday night,
December Is. The junior play has
become an annual event and the
juniors of 1919 and 1920 success
fully staged attractive plays which
drew fun houses. Juniors of 1921
are particularly fortunate in the
play selected. "The Man of the
Hour" had a long and successful run
in New York city and was played
to a crowded house more than
eight hundred times during its
stay in Chicago. 1t is a high class
play depending on the simplicity
of human appeal for its Interest
and charm. No clown, no stale
jokes and no extravaganza of any
kind mar the play from start to
finish. Every actor has real
part Each character is not only
a type, but is an individual with
Ia distinct personality.
Interest is aroused in the first
scene and sustained throughout
the play When the curtain rises
q corporation man is discovered at
tempting to gain complete control
of the city's street franchises; the
city boss ana ward politicians are
in league with him and as the play
develops this political machine
elects mayor whom they thin.l
they can control, but whom they
find to lie THE Man Of The Hour"
The struggle which follows is
based on a modern civic problem
vital to our public life. The tense
situations are lightened by flashes
Of wit and humor, delightful in
their spontaniety and originality.
Those who have seen the first
two rehearsals predict genuine
success for THE Man of the Hour"
