'I I 9 N .aa Murders do attract attention Will the guilty 0119 P19859 Stand The Junior class, under the direction of Mrs. Wilford Bonnell, presented a mystery-comedy, Bull in a China Shop . The play centered around homicide detective Dennis O'Firm and six elderly ladies who stayed at a boarding house run by Miss Hildegarde. Detective O'Finn, a handsome Irishman, lived across the street from the ladies. They kept close watch on O'Finn's activities and did everything in their power to attracthim. However, O'F inn payed them no heed. The ladies resorted to homicide, and O'F inn was called in to investigate the death of Miss Elizabeth. In the merry-go-round of questioning which ensued, O'Finn discovered that the five remaining ladies all seemed to know that Elizabeth was poisoned but that no one except the guilty party knew who did it. Detective O'Finn is stumped until newspaper reporter Jane Rogers, who had come to write up the homicide, tells him that he is the motive for the murders.O'Finn tried to solve the problem by ignoring the ladies. This action merely precipitated the death of Miss Nettie. When O'Finn visited Miss Birdie, Miss Amantha, Miss Lucy, and Miss Hildegardeg he discovered that his attentions were even more jealously coveted. However, by fending off the ladies' attentions for a few moments, O'Finn was able to work some of the clues together. He was aidedin his endeavors by his assistant, Kramer, by the fingerprint expert, Johnson, and by the ladies who were only too eager to answer questions. O'Finn was finally able to ascertain the identity of the murderer. He hoped that this would end the deaths of the sweet elderly ladies. Miss Hildegarde was revealed as the criminal , and she, happily and possessively, allowed herself to be taken to jail by O'Finn, My, he's even more handsome than my poor husband was! 19
