Prnm Stoker Tn Steamtahle Nearly every day some luckless student can be found roaming the halls in search of '4Shorty and his file to chop off the keyless wonder with the forgotten combination. Any- one who's put off a chemistry report until the day it's due, will put that man with the keys to the library down in his favorite people book forever. Without a doubt, East high would certainly be in a fix without its tip-top janitorial staff. And letis not forget those ladies on the top floor who spend their days with pots and pans. Preparing food for the howling lnob is no light task, but our cafeteria crew always Taking time out from practicing the culinary arts are Mrs. Masters, Mrs. Bell, Mrs. Morri- son and Mrs. Briden. ' ' Shorty ' ' Samlergard and J. Lorraine are caught shoveling away one of the wintefs few snowstnrms.

He manages to fill supply orders of all Waterloo schools. It's these men and women behind the scenes that help make East high a place we're proud of. 4

M10 e are M f JJ 'i 'gOn stage everybody, bring down the lights, take it., Phipps? The curtain opened November 14 on East's fall hit, 'LUncle Harry, by Thomas Job. George Leebl and Perry Long acted as technicians for the tri-set show with Miss Esther Oleson in charge of settings. Action takes place in England in the early 1900's with the plot revolving around Harry Quincy, played by Herman Diers, a meek bachelor of about forty- iive years of age who is resigned to the domination of his two old maid sisters. Hester, portrayed by Kathy Perry, is the elder sister, a dominant character. Lettie, depicted by Margaret Reed, is the younger sister who gets her way by wheedling Harry. They wage a mental struggle, each trying to gain Ha1'ry's adulation. Harry becomes Uncle Harry to the townspeople. Shirley Skattum, as Lucy, was once in love with Harry and would have married him had it not been for the interference of the sisters. She comes to straighten things out with Harry before her marriage to George Wfaddy, portrayed by Iver Trebon. Resolving to win Lucy back, Harry displays his true character as he proves himself selfish enough to kill by arranging an ingenious method of ridding himself of his sisters. Nona, the maid, played by Barbara Anderson, adds comedy. D'Arcy, played by Tom Myers, Albert, Don Curtis and Blake, Jim Donnell, are Harryis three cronies. Adding laughs and suspense are Darlene Wherry, Miss Phipps, George Hadley, M1'. Jenkins, Harold Glazebrook, Ben, the druggist, Ralph Schauer, the governor, and Nancy Burk, the matron. Evidence of good directing was seen throughout the suspense-filled play. Stage manager was Jerry Leeperg property mis- tresses, Celeste Miller and Orvola Brooks, wardrobe mistress, Martha Larson.
