 If you don’t pick up those cues during the second act, I’ll have to do a strip tease, play a few selections on my violin, and raise the American flag to keep the audience interested!” Those words were familiar to each member of the January class play cast, since the sjxrakcr was the director, Harold Gregory. Luckily for Mr. Gregory, the threats were never carried out. “A Date with Judy’’ is the story of an enthusiastic teen-ager who continually and ejuite unconsciously upsets her family in order to realize her ambition to reign as queen at her club’s charity ball. As in most plays of this type, Judy does become queen, but only after making her family and friends completely miserable. The seniors will long remember Hud Nasby, reading the part of Mrs. Foster so convincingly that he was almost rewarded with a peck on the cheek by Melvin (Don Reiher). . . . Mary MeBrien, padded with hath towels, asking everyone if it showed. . . . Morlcy Gutter-sen, hair-do a la sheep dog, flitting down the stairs, screeching, Helloooooooo. . . . Carolyn Nordstrom, charming in red knee-socks, chanting—“The sea, the sea!”. . . . Clayt and the muscle dance on the line—“And what wouldn’t I give to be queen!”. . . . and through it all Mr. Gregory tossing pennies ami paper airplanes when anyone leaned toward the “hammy” side. The whole cast felt that the fun was well worth the work.
