SCHOOL PLAY

HUGE SUCCESS

I alent in Hold
Everything

When Austin Goetz wrote Hold
Everything he looked around and
caught as his plot, romance, a la
moderne
Presented last evening in the High
School Gymnasium, the cast OF
Hold Everything" filled the large
and appreciative audience with
spasms of laughter, the charming
and amusing little comedy con-
corning couple of young moderns,
Connie Morgan (Bernice Waugh
and Courtney Barrett Jr paul
Coke) whom fates had decreed must
marry, but who decided, definitely,
to dislike each other. The stopover
at road house complicated matters
for a while. However, all ended in
a most amusing manner, and Of
course, just as it should end, with
Connie and Courtney together
Caroline Carothers louise Mel
SOM, hotel proprietress, was most
charming at all times. and ex-
tremely patient with her colored
servant Niobe, played by Mary
Stewart, who's entrances were a
signal for merriment.
Playing the part of Christopher
Morgan, banker, Richard Jack
son was not only a we'll behaved
father, but every inch a business
man as well. Bernice Waugh, play
ing the part of irresistible Connie,
in whose throes of love was dashing
Courtney Barrett Jr paul Coke
Both were. most entertaining in
their roles of modern lovers.
An ambitious mother, Mrs Julia
Gibbs, which part was remarkably
well taken by Barbara Hermann,
had the audience out of breath
every time she finished her line of
chatter, Her three talented daugh-
tiers, Sanda violet Paul., Daisy
(Lila Sinclair) and Lottie Gina
Lepetich), are deserving of much
praise in each of their respective
roles.
Two TOUCHES" who turned out
not so tough, presented their parts
in true-to-life manner, both add
ing "zest" to the play with their
dumb remarks"
Jim GlaSse characterized his role
as Tim Macauley, a super sleuth, -
with ability, not forgetting his oath
to always to get his man.
The only part lacking, and con-
siderably missed by the audience,
was the appearance of the milk
man (Chee Hermann) whose mas
culine voice was heard between the
clanking of bottles at o'clock on
mornings on the front porch.
Adding greatly to the success of
the comedy last evening. which was
ably directed by K. r. Ferguson,
were two musical scores presented
by the High School orchestra, un-
der the direction of Robert White,
and with a theme depicting hap
penings which occur but once in
life time, is it any wonder that
Hold Everything" was such a sue
cess?

As it appears clear to any football
expert, the foreign team has the
experience and the power on it's side,
but of course hasn't the same team
work as the Dee Ceers, as it is COM
posed of players of different coun-
tries. If you don't recognize the
names of the Diplomatic Giants" it's
because they have been slightly
changed; but, if you use your brains,
it won't take you long to see who they
are. You know, the diplomats want
to keep incoghito!.. AS I told you,
the Diplomatic Giants are rough
and powerful team, but they don't
possess the agility, the speed and
the team work Of the Washington
Butterflies. Chances seem equal to
us, and the only thing we can say is:
MAY the best team win Z!
Now let me introduce to you all the
athletes, one by one. First, the Dip
lomatic Giants. .Maraschino del
Dragon Gtalian), powerful left end

in which he distinguished himself so
often. Mac Trucko, dynamic Chill
can left tackle, was with the Chilean
Swingers, and he could truck out any
body he wanted. Mike Boodknee is
a husky Polish left guard, who used
to play for the Varsavia's Mazurkers
,..Heroe Taito, the center and cap
tain of the Diplomatic Giants, was the
powerful former captain of the Jas
paneses Bucchaneers. "Buch" Bula-
Bula, the curly-haired Argentine
right guard, outstanding player of
the Buenos Aires Gauchos, could
tackle the cows in the pampas better
than anyone. Penjie Blanket, a
colossal British right tackle, formed
the skeleton of the Irish Jumpers, his
team. . Benedetto Amazzacapo, an
other hot Italian, should give plenty
of trouble to the w. Butterflies. He
