SENIOR CLASS PLAY Another first for the Senior Class was the class play which was held March 29th and 30th. The play Turn Back The Clock is a hilarious story which proves that the teenagers of the 1920's were no different from the teens of today. Judy Wolfe aptly played Evie, the rad- ical daughter of Mr. Uoe Glorialand Mrs. Uudy Wain- manl Palmer, who drives her parents, especially her father, to distraction. Evie's two boy friends, Charlie Hill fDick Clareyl and Johnnie Stone CReid Kaplanl, prove to be a source of hilarity throughout the play. Larry Palmer CNed Buntonl and his sister Sally fMarion Hilll, under a comic cover, tie this typical family of the era together. Such characters as Maybelle Harrison CMary Ellen Harrisonl, Irene lsherwood CBarbara Wiesl, Phyllis McSorley QMary D'Aurial, Hilda the maid CDonna De- Veglial, Barbara Bannister lPat Maxwelll, her brother, Ollie fPat Siskl, and Slim Bascombe KDavid Dedrnanl add to the comic scurry which was so vividly portrayed on the Amity High School Stage.
