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 .......

The girls send socks to a couple of sailors, instead of to the Red Cross where they were supposed to go. Correspondence begins between the girls and the sailors. Finally, the boys come to see the girls. This results in complete chaos for the household and the entire Navy. The girls eventually return to being teenagers and the sailors return to their ship.

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
