LORE 1927 QLASS KHISTOR Y fcontinuedj Rose of Tokio, in which every member of our class took part, was as every one will agree, the greatest play ever produced in L. H. S. All through this year we have worked ever forward' to the greatest event of the year, our Washington trip. We shall all remember that remarkable time. This closed our career in L. H. S. It is with mixed feelings of joy and regret that we look back through the years. The hand of the future beckons us, and we must answer her call and step on. Some of us will go out into the World to take up our tasks. Others will seek to prepare for the various professions. The class of '27 will always remain honest, upright and loyal to our Alma Mater, and we hope that the following classes will follow in our footsteps and revere the ideals set by us. GSENJQR CLASS CPLAY The 'QM gf Tokio The Class of '27 put the biggest and best musical comedy over the top on March 23rd and 24th. It Went over with flying colors and made a grand slam. First we go to Japan where a revolution has been instigated by Baron Kaneko CGraffius Barrj, a powerful and scheming nobleman. His machinations reach even to the beautiful garden of H. H. 1Robert Noltel, Mayor of Tokio, this being kept by the gardener, Wen A Su Games Fergusonj. The fairest flower in the Mayor's garden is his ward, Fu San to the Baron, but her.1ove is won by Ying Po CRussel1 Lyterj, a strolling minstrel. Richard Smith fLewis Headingsj, a reporter for the International News Service, who is covering Tokio for the American papers, complicates matters by wooing Mei O Mei, KDorothy Bickelj, the gardener's daughter who is the second choice of the Baron. Ko Ko fMida Biddlej, the Mayor's wife, steps in and immediately falls in love with Richard and has quite a time chasing after him. Saturday QCharles Brattonj, and Aunt Chloe, QCatharine Lyonsj, our comedians smell the sacred Japanese Rose and are overcome. Finally the Baron is outwitted in his revolution and is killed. Startling disclosures are made by Ying Po and the mysterious witch, Chi Fu and the Green Eyes, tRobert Smileyj. Finally all mysteries are cleared and each one wins his beloved one and at this moment the curtain drops which means- '1 11,1-1.5.1 2 ff' 9 6 'rf - SIXTEEN
