Curtain Cjoinfl Up! On Mm ’, L Under the direction of Miss My rand, the Junior cLass presented its annual play, “Mama's Baby Boy. Co-starring in this year's production were Karen Asbjeld and Don Wiberg as a middle- aged widow and widower who found that marriage for money isn't the an- swer. Other members in the cast in- cluded Clark Anderton, Kathleen Ost- lund, Jackie Nygaard, Janice Lundgren, Ramona Day, Lorine Hagen, Kathleen Farley, Wendell Larson, and Ramon Swanson. Weather proved to be a contender in the presentation, as the season's most severe ice storm prevented the usual Thursday and Friday night per- formances. As a result, the play was given on Friday and the following Mon- day night. Top: We're looking for ‘Mama's Baby Boy.' Bottom: The cast takes a bow. Top: For money or love?

Right: Smiles of approval come as business managers view a poster made to boost their sales. Far right: Decisions upon decisions must be made by the editors and art editor as they mold plans for a suc- cessful yearbook. Bottom: Many hands make efforts easy. The 1954 Cubette staff united their efforts early in the school year to meet deadlines in order to get the yearbook in the hands of its readers before school ended. Each member of the staff was responsible for the arranging of a page in the yearbook. This took much time and effort on the part of the members and on the editors as well. But the time passed quickly and soon all deadlines were gone and material for the yearbook was on its way to the printers. Some of the duties of the business staff are col- lecting ads, selling subscriptions, and this year they sponsored an amateur program in the fall for the pur- pose of raising extra funds for the Cubette.
