Wcilz anc) Pla j Paxton High is not all play and no work. There are always those who work hard so the rest of us may have fun. Everyone loves the smell of hot popcorn at our home games, a barbecue dinner, the movies we see, the tree at Christmas time, and the music at a pep rally, but we sometimes forget those who work together for our benefit. 22

The class of 1960, under the direction of Mr. Ted Johnson, presented the hilarious comedy, “Nuts In May”, which centered around a teen-aged boy, Michael, the son of actress Cornelia Otis Skinner and her husband Alden. It seemed that Michael had become somewhat confused and had invited two girls to attend his mother’s opening night with him. The uproar created in the already-disturbed Skinner household provided a fun-filled evening of entertainment for all who attended the performance. Cornelia ...... Alden ......... Michael .......
