Class Plug l Friday, January 13, might have been unlucky for many, but for the cast of 'QSpring Dancev it was lucky, for the play, a gay comedy by Philip Barry, under the direction of Miss Wanda Mitchell, was presented before a large and appreciative audience and went along smoothly to its last curtain. The scene, in a modest New England house near the campus of a girls, school, with the prim Miss Ritchie as house mother, sets a contrasting background for the light banter and flippant man- ner of the modern college girls and their visiting boy friends. The plot concerns Alex Benson, who has fallen in love with a Yale man, Sam Thatcher, and is broken-hearted because he is going to Russia for two years with his crony, woman-hater Lippincott. Her roommate, Kate McKim, who is a confirmed man-hater, except for Mr. Beckett, her young professor, whom she says is 'ljust wonderfulf, plots with her other mates to detain Sam until they can make him see that he loves Alex as much as she loves him. Wfith the help of Sally Prescott, who has superb ideas, Frances Penn, who is beautiful but dumb, Nlady Platt, who is rich and witty, and their boy friends, Doc Byrd, Buck Buchannon, and the humorous John Hatton-Yale and Princeton men-who have come down for the spring dance, and the unwilling maid, Mildred, they finally lock the Lippincott in the pantry while Sam and Alex elope. The cast-Sitting: Clyde Wigner, John Hatton, Nancy Hovis, Frances Fenn, Virginia Garretson, Sally Prescott, Goff Utterback, Buck Buchannon, Lonald Belt, Kate McKim, Ernest Mullen, The Lippincott, Paul Hylbert, Doc Byrd, Jane Merrill, Mady Platt, Betty Koon, Miss Ritchie, Dick Leonard, Walter Beckett. Standing: Elaine Wood, Mildred, Claude Cutlip, Sam Thatcher, Eva Satow, Alex Benson. Production Staff: Bill Morrison, Business Manager, Glen Mealey and Clayton Hornbeck, Construc- tion Crew, Wesley Barringer, Julia Baker, May Davis, Imogene Stukey, Mildred A. Taylor, and Ruth Black, Stage Crew, Virginia Jarvis, Mary Jane Mills, and Helen Bradford, Prop- erty Crew, Ann Guice, Costumes, Goff Utterback, Sound Effects, Paul I-lylbert, Lights, Jackie Brown and Dorothy Satterfield, Prompters. 7

Well, here we are, but where? Of course! In SENIOR HIGH school- that goal of every student in all of Wood County's many schools. Boy, are we big? All the friends we had in junior 'high are now little tots to us. Now weire grown up and can look down and back to our junior high pals of other days with well earned disdain. Now they'll have to look up and respect US SENIOR HIGH students. Now we can tease the next newcomers, as we have been teased, about the fast elevators and all that. Think of the fun we are going to have in High. They tell us you donit have any home work. Swell, isn't it? . Then comes the let-down. We wonder who got the bright idea of calling the middle door the Main Entrance. We know where the main entrance is. It's the side door-our door. June, 1935. After all, not much happened during our first year in High. We were kidded and bumped around a while, but it didnit take June long to come around. Three months with nothing to do but wait, then September and soon January, 1936, comes banging in and we are Sophs. Now -look at us. We're SOPHOMORES. We have a fine football team, getting our shoe back from clown the river, and all thatg and an excellent A Cappella Choir under Miss Boette. What wonderful memories, the concerts, programs, and operettasl We can t forget them. Quickly, and too quickly, January, 1937, makes us Juniors, and we are seasoned and hardened High students, with our noses well in the air when Junior High is even mentioned. This year we lose Miss Boette and gain Mr. Withersg Miss Vaughn takes the place of Miss Rosenthal, Mr. Strimer and Miss Overton come to us. There are new faces on the staff as well as new faces following us into High. We lose good friends and gain good friends. We have to plan our Junior-Senior Banquet. Time matches on, and it's march is very swift. It seems but yesterday that we came for our first time into the finest high school in the state, but here we are Senior I's. Now we make plans for the Senior I-II picnic. Busy, busy, busy, are we, as we go along the road-the happy road to graduation. , September, 1938, and we are now SENIOR II's! Now's our chance to make the middle door OUR Main Entrance, and proudly lift our heads as we watch our successors use the doors to the side. It is fun, and it is joy all through from the side doors to the Main Entrance. Little did we notice the romance between our Mr. Strimer and Miss Overton. What an excellent climax to our high school days. To cap it all and fill our cup to overflowing, our football team, who met and vanquished all comers the entire season, contributed no little. Long shall we remember this cham- pion team. In la-ter years we can look back and remember with no little pride that the class of January '39 contributed more than their share to this superior eleven. At last a very happy and, at the same time, a sad moment is upon us-Commencement. Our good and kind friend, Mr. Michael, leaves when we do, to secure a Doctor's Degree at New York University. We wish him all the luck in the world. ' Thus, we, the class of January '39, who came into the side door in pigtails, leave by the Main Entrance in top hats and tails, a wiser, happier class, to face the world. In another year i-t will probably be impossible to call the roll of the class and have a one hundred per cent attend- ance, no matter what the occasion, but wherever we all are in future years, and whatever we may be doing, we are sure not one member of this class can be anything but proud to be called Graduate, Parkersburg High School, Class '39.
