SENIOR CLASS PLAY Mystery was the theme which surrounded the annual Senior Class Play which was directed and produced by Miss Margaret Morgan with the cooperation of the Senior Class. lt was entitled The Mystery of Saint lames and was presented the evening of December 5, 1940. The play opened upon the stage of an old London theater where Sir Charles Iasper, played by Iames Caufield, was to give a dinner party for the members of his family in observance of a weird anniversary. Then, after the clock had struck eleven, Sir Charles was to inherit the tidy sum of two million pounds. The ghost of a man slain in the theater many years before was to appear, according to prophecy, on this night, after the appearance of a dumb girl. The prophecy was fulfilled, and to make matters more alarming, Maurice Mullins, portrayed by Don Driver, was to inherit the fortune in case of Sir Charles's death before ll o'clock. Under such circumstances, hair-raising events were bound to ensue, as they assur- edly did. The members of the cast were: Sir Charles Iasper ..,...,. ..,. I ames Caufield Maurice Mullins .... ........ Don Driver Miss Groze. . . , ...,,. .... D orothy Hayden Beatrice Iasper. . . .....,. . . . .La Rue Boggess Mrs. Arthur Cher motheri ...... .. .Margaret Ambler limmy North ........,.... ........ ...,......
