HEALTH PLAY AT
GRAMMAR SCHOOL
WAS BIG SUCCESS

"rhe Costly Party" a health play
presented at the grammar school Fri
day morning by the 7Bl class, was
pronounced great success by all who
saw it. The 7B1 class deserves praise
for the finished way in which each
took part.
The plot briefly was this; Lillian
Green has the flu. Billy Green David
Farber), who had planned a party for
that day, persuades his mother esther
Guttierrez) to disobey the doctors or
ders and give the party. She makes
two conditions: that no one be told of
Lillians illness, and that no one see
Lillian. BY accident, Jane Brown
(Madeline Rice) visits Lillian and the
flu spreads to all the classmates. Mrs.
Brown ALAMEDA Hunter) mother of
the three Browns brings suit against
Mrs. Green and after the case is care
fully considered the jury brings in the
verdict of guilty" Mrs. Green has
not observed the simplest precautions
and as a result the whole neighbor-
hood has to pay for her negligence.
Jack Mcbride played the part of the
judge and with the two lawyers, Mr..
Wise (Sam Johnson) and Mr.. Solo
mon (Elmer Vickers), the clerk of the
court, Jesus Home, presented very
convincing court scene The absolute
certainty and poise of each actor add
ed to the interest of tho play. Miss
Bright did not deny her name, but
played the part of the district nurse
very cleverly.
Besides the play, the program was
mostly of Thanksgiving origin. The
Girls glee club sang two songs Which
were enjoyed as always. The presi-
dents proclamation was read by Mari
anna Pigott with assurance and clar-
ity. After the program was ended the
flag salute was given and the classes
returned to their class rooms
