As the guests at Charles jasper's birthday dinner watch terror-stricken, Maurice Mullins fPete Vander Haarj resurrects Charles Jasper QBob W'hit- to life fordl, whom he had poisoned, as a hal- lucination of his tortured, unbalanced mind and confesses the murder in a dra- matic closing scene. After years of comedies, Wyoming finally has given a purely dramatic play. True, the play, 'GA Murder Has Been Arrangedfi contained humor, such as Carole Dut- meris unforgettable characterization of Mrs. Wragg, or Larry Abbott Cas Jimmy Northl in his attempts to convince Mrs. Arthur CMarbo Turnerj that he is a newspaper man, but the plot of the play depended on dramatic scenes which required convincing performances. Presented November 20, by the senior class, the play was directed by Miss Spradlin. The cast also included Sharon Ehle as a woman, Judy Van Dyke as Beatrice Arthur, Sharon Hagan, as Miss Groze, and Jay Gro- endyk as Cavendish.

Doughnuts and a Korean Chapel may not seem to have much in common to the average person, but to the boys of the Hi-Y Club they are practically interchangeable. The Wyoming Hi-Y Club, along with all the other clubs of the Michi- gan Hi-Y Association, contribute part of the money they earn toward the support of a chapel in Korea. The rest of the money is given to vari- ous other charities. The boys also participate in sports, such as at the swimming, bowling, and basketball, Y.M.C.A. and this year they collected for the March of Dimes. All these things are done in an effort to build Christian minds and bodiesf' Hi-Y Club officers, Wayne Kidder, chaplain, Don Drake secretary, Brian Cox, president, and Ron Hazelwood, vice president, admire the sportsmanship trophy.

Faith QMerry Beanj cheers while Grilly fDave Carltonj and Buddy fMike Dykstraj spar. Sylvia Wilson QSherry Postmaj consoles Dickie Cran- dall fMike Hannumj. JUNIDR PRE E T... YOU GMAN'S FANCY April 10 and 11 were two very big nights for the Junior classg on these nights their produc- tion of A Young Man's Fancyl' was given in the new gym. The setting was a co-educational summer camp in northern Connecticut. A rustic bunkhouse was the scene of the hilarious activity which took place throughout the three acts of the comedy. The plot revolved around Dickie Crandall, played by Mike Hannum, and his attempts to promote a tender, but laughable love affair be- tween Joe Kramarz and Sherry Postma, who portrayed Camp Freedom counselors. Nancy De Puit played the part of Heler Greenly, a co-owner of the camp and firm be- liever in progressive education. Her four major problems were in the form of Mike Dyk- stra, Ron Hazelwood, Orie Kalee, and Dave Carlton as Buddy, jokey Stephen, Duvie, and Grilly. The boys' amusing antics ranged from sudden drenchings and falling bunks, to a slight brawl with boys from another camp. The cast was rounded out by Merry Bean, Ruby Lemon, Bill Ferguson, Lynn Raven, Eileen Kerkstra, Linda Shannon, Pat Seth and Bob Livingston. Under the direction of Miss Spradlin, the play was a success as both a money making project, and an experience for the students who took part in the production. ' L The Junior Play cast.
