JUNIOR CLASS TO
PRESENT PLAY

On the night of April twentieth at
the High School Auditorium, the
Junior class expects to put on a
play, Am | Intruding?" The pro-
ceeds of this play will go to the
needy Annual fund. This play is by
the same author as "Mary's Millions"
the Senior play Of '21 and 1t Is hoped
that many people will turn out to
see this bit of "home talent"
Am | Intruding?" is a thoroughly
modern comedy causing laughter
galore, based on a mystery plot that
holds the attention from start to
finish and comes out quite differently
from what anyone In the audience is
expecting There is really no big
star part, all the people in the cast
having an unusual opportunity to
shine as individuals.
"The action hinges around the ef-
forts OF Harce Ware. wealthy busi-
ness man, to keep from being frozen
out of the Bluebird Motor Corporation
in which he Is heavy stakeholder.
Blair Hoover. an adventurer, ac-
quires some notes OF yare's when the
latter is short OF cash. and threatens
to ruin him unless he will sell his
Bluebird stock Mt low figure.
Ware has been forced into a tight
corner financially when Jerry, ec-
centric son OF his comrade OF years
ago, appears on the scene. Jerry is
a regular rustic tornado. and sets
out not only to save the stock for
Ware, but to win Vare's daughter for
himself. Jerry arrives fresh from
Sage Creek. by heck, and Is about as
much at home In the palatial Ware
household as bull in china shop.
Resides his whirlwind courtship of
Margie, Jerry furnishes much amuse-
ment for Margie's slangy young
sister, vi, and the latter's bosom
friends, Dora, who is "ditkcouraged
over her love affairth." And he up
sets the stately demeanor of Vare's
studious niece, Jane, and her serious
minded secretary. Ernest. Mean
while he wins the admiration OF
.Dickie Waldron. who is busy raising
a moustache. and Peter, Wis school
boy sweetheart. He fees from the
winning wiles of Monafi the pert
little French maid. and keeps his
eagle eye on Mrs. Hastings, the
mysterious woman in black.
Throughout the three acts OF Am
Intruding?" the rapid action brings
about one situation after another in
which are mingled thrills and laughs.
The comedy Is natural, not forced,
the characters have the little manner
isms which we sec about us In every
day life, and the interest is we'll sus-
tained to the final curtain. Every
character in the play is worthy of
a star actor"
