The Senior Class Play The Senior Class presented the romantic comedy, Garden of the Moon” by Arthur Jearue, April 21, 1943 in the Senior High auditorium. Contrary to the usual interior setting, the action takes place in an old-fashioned garden in the university city of Berkley, California, during Senior Week. Carol Clair, played by Nancy Stookey, is a charming young girl who has the soprano role in the school operetta written by her fiance, Brent Carson, who is Keith Mason. Brent tells Carol that he will have to accept a teaching position at Berkley and asks her to wait for him until he saves enough money. Carol refuses and angrily promises to marry Leo, Jim Smith, the school football hero. Carol declares there is no such thing as an enduring love; Professor Gaylord, Bob Melton, a kindly and lovable old man, convinces her that love can survive the years. He brings the two young people together and in so doing, insures his own happiness. This story, gay with youth, laughter, and love was made even more appealing by the beautiful stage setting and costumes of bygone days. Other members of the play and class were Margaret Mullen, Shirley Jackson, Barbara Keithley, Jeanne Crone, Merlin Brown, Bob Pennington, Ivan Hayden, John Sweeney, Leland Mummert, Barbara Harland, Betty Myers, Betty Logan, Betty Inman, Elgin Huston, and Nora Van Hooser. Much of the success of the play was due to the patient, hard work of the director, Miss Louise Waggoner, the stage manager, Merlin Brown, and the business manager, Betty Logan. Page 22
