Laer Dak eee ....Douglas Lester SYNopPsIs OF PLay Ed Burns, a chemistry student at Brookfield College, has fitted up his room in the college boarding house as a laboratory, and stages so many “percussions” with his substitute for dynamite that Mrs. Spangler, the landlady, declares “If I didn’t own the place I wouldn’t live here.’ Howard Brant, a senior, types frantically on a zoology term paper, as his graduation the following day depends upon his getting that in. His heart-interest, Anne Purcell, who has forgotten to reserve rooms at the hotel for her parents, persuades him to let her father use his room in the boarding house. When the elegant Mr. Purcell arrives, Vic Lewis, an art student, thinks that he is his Bolshevik model. Having been warned that the fellow does not wish to pose as a spy, Vic and Ed grab Mr. Purcell, gag him, and tie him to a hat rack so that Vic won’t fail in his first commission for a picture. The mistake is discovered, but Mr. Purcell departs in a rage, after withdrawing his offer to endow a science building. Finally, a death bed scene, staged by Anne and her friends, is the means of getting Mr. Purcell to reconsider.
