In spite of the cold and the snow
on roads and streets which made
travelling difficult, there was large
crowd in attendance at the Senior
play, "The HOodoo," on Friday eve
ming, February End. The Seniors
acquitted themselves well, though
an automobile accident to one of
their group on the evening previous
prevented their final rehearsal and
greatly disturbed everyone of the
class. Mr.. Grassmyer, who coached
the play, deserves much credit for
the training which he gave the young
actors.
Miss Anna Tatman, one OF the
Seniors having a part in the play
was unable to be present because of
injuries which she received in an
automobile accident on the evening
bfore. Her part was taken by Miss
Kathryn Stayton, a freshman, who
did remarkably we'll, though she had
only a few hours notice that she
might be called upon to substitute |!
and did not know definitely until an
hour previous to the play that Miss |
Tatman would be unable to be pres |
ent.
Eight of our High School pupils
figured in a rather serious automo-
bile accident early on Thursday eve
ming, February 1st, on the State
highway about a quarter mile north
of the Hill Top Garage when driver
proceeding south lost control OF his
car on the icy road and ran into the
car of Miss Anna Tatman, Senior,
who was taking home seven younger
children of our Junior High School
grades. 1t was possibly only Miss
Tatman's remarkable presence of
mind which saved the children from ,
even more serious injury or death. ;
The most seriously injured were, I
Miss Tatman and Carl Zott of the {
seventh grade, who lost several teeth {
and had deep scalp wounds and I
abrasiOns on the limbs. Irene Tat {
man, ninth grade, also received a I
deep scalp wound Dr. Day was able d
to give necessary first aid TO all, but t
1t was necessary for the two Tat S
man girls to go to the Milford Emer- a
gency Hospital for further treat v
ment. Two of the occupants of the .
car, Blanch Breeding and Esther i,
escaped uninjured. The c
others, Hester Fountain, Florence fl
rrice and Lawrence Cannon, received r
)nly minor cuts and bruises and Ii
