THE SENIOR PLAY- YOU CAN'T ALWAYS SOMETIMES TELL Our annual senior play You Can't Always Sometimes TeIl was presented on April 13 in the high school auditorium. It was a brisk, beguiling farce in three acts. Very briefly the story of the play went as follows: Two lovers, Phoebe Lyster QCarolyn Andersonj and Private .lim Blake CDoug Bissetj want to get married but Phoebe's mother CVirginia Porterj doesn't approve. Westbrook Walker QDixon Ostromj is her choice. Of course with Phoebe engaged to another man, the romance isn't running smoothly. It becomes further in- volved when Jim's uniform is accidentally burned and he is forced to masquerade as a woman cook. Still additional complications result when .lim is accused of robbing a bank. Naturally this produces a chaos which is straightened out, not without surprises, before the final curtain. I'll pull your hair out! How do you do. Aurora? 3 , T . Di X
