Bucking all obstacles in the Senior Class Play “Our Miss Brooks,” Miss Brooks, played by Marilou Uhrick, succeeded in staging the “play within the play.” Throughout the play she had quarrels and love scenes with the coach, cast bv Winston Lister. Jane and Ted, played by Chloe Neuenschwander and Murl Yoder, also had their troubles. The play was livened by the antics of the youthful actors. During the production, it was forgotten that it had to be postponed several times as a result of flu-itis. November 14 was the evening Miss Imogene Beihold, director, and the student body relaxed after the final cur¬ tain was pulled. Dress rehearsal, held the night before the play, saw Marilyn Christener, Jerry Beard, Rog Haw¬ kins, Jane Grimm and Pat Liechty waiting in line for make-up. The roar of an airplane, thunder, and a blizzard were homemade sound effects produced by Miss Brooks, Mari¬ lou Uhrick, and the teenagers. Tryouts, Rehearsals, Opening Night 24

Is there a doctor in the house was asked in “Reserve Two For Murder” on April 10. It all began with a shot in the dark, the corpse lying on the floor, and a riotous mix-up. Winston Lister is a New York police officer who is more than con¬ fused as to who is guilty. Rolland Zim¬ merman, his Chinese detective side-kick, comes up with all the answers. One murder was not enough! Mae Christener took a trip to the mortuary. Then Jane Grimm was struck on the head. After accusing almost everyone in the theater, Winston finds, that the one least suspected is guilty. Barbara Steiner goes down fighting, though, shooting Rollie in the chest. His book of proverbs saves him; and “Crime does not pay” proves true again. JUNIOR PLAY CAST —R. Zimmerman, J. Snyder, M. Uhrick, J. Beard, R. Myers, J. Bovine, J. Grimm, M. Christener, M.
