IUNIOR ACTIVITIES ln September, 1944, a group of thirty-six students assembled to begin the Iunior year. Mr. Huffman was our sponsor. After a few weeks of school, we elected the following officers: Lillian Marten, president: Sam Cochran, v. Presi- dent: Ioan Beeker, secretary, and Lowell Sander, treasurer. Purple and white were chosen as our colors. September 15 was a big event for us. We received our class rings, and are very proud of them. Our treasury was enlarged by the magazine sale. Then on November 3, 1944, came the presentation of our class play en- titled, One Mad Night . It was under the capable direction of Mrs. Lambert and Miss Curl. On November 9,lwe had a skating at Perrysburg. The Iunior-Senior Banquet was held April 27. Our Iunior year is coming to a close, and we hope that as Seniors, next year, we can occupy the places left by the class of 1945. Lois Gockerman IOKES Mother: What sort of a chap is Henry. dear?

Dwight Martin Directed by Mrs. Lambert Assisted by Miss Curl The action of the entire play takes place in one mad night. Don Cutter, a playwright, accompanied by Wing, goes to the Cutter mansion, a lonely house in the hills, to complete his latest play in peace and quiet. The house, having been deserted for years, is found to be tenanted by a group of lunatics under the care of Dr. Bunn. Among the inmates is Lucille with an amazing sob-story. Don is just about to ride to her rescue, when his fiancee and her mother put in an appearance with their maid. From this point everything happens: talking ghosts, screaming women, disappearing guests, and an escaped murderer fleeing for his life. Don succeeds in rescuing Lucille from an evil fate only after many thrilling escapades. 26
