ll l0ll PLAY On Friday evening, April 20, 1951, the Sen- iors presented a very delightful play entitled The Lucky Accident, a farcical comedy in three acts by Wilbur Braun. The plot of the play is as follows: Leslie Noyes is in love with Fern Hunter and is anxious to marry her. Fern favors his suit, but Mrs. Hunzter, her mother, claims that Leslie is much too stupid to marry into the Hunter family. When Walton Knox, a former resident, returns home and is obviously a great financial success, Mrs. Hunter gives a party in Walton's honor and does all she can to further his suit. It happens that Walton, too, is enamoured of Fern's charms. Then Les Noyes meets with an accident! He receives a blow on the head and becomes an entirely different person. When the bandage is removed much later, it is dis- covered that the bump that everyone thought was responsible for Les's newly acquired bril- liance has healed. He becomes one of the town's most enterprising business men with a few small business deals to his credit. Humbird Hunter the father, and Amelda, the housemaid, provide many a howl and chuckle with their lines. Honey Hunter, Fern's younger sister, is a riot with her typical teen-age antics. The play was under the excellent direction of Miss Margaret B. McCrea. We want to acknowledge the cooperation of all who have contributed their efforts in mak- ing the play a great success, especially to the senior advisers, Miss V. Sheridan and Mr. Philip Brand and to Mr. D. Lally and his de- partment for the artistic scenery used in our production. The last week in April, the play was present- ed in Fort Monmouth through the lunior Red Cross, for the benefit of hospitalized soldiers.
