r Blue and Gold SENIOR PLAY Under Cover , a four-act detective story, was unaminously chosen by the sen- iors for the annual senior play. The plot was woven around the bringing of a pearl necklace into the United States. Mr. Steven Denby, with his pal Monty Vaughn, traveling in the company of the rich and influential lllrs. Harrington, was smuggling it through the customs. If he did not declare the necklace it would be a big case for the customs, but if they searched him and did not find it, the Harringtons would be insulted and would cause trouble. Taylor, a crooked agent, decided to let Denby get by the customs, but he would get a society girl, Ethel Cartwright, who was also to be at the Week- end party of the Harringtons', to watch and discover the whereabouts of the necklace, for blackmailing purposes. lkliss Cartwright had previously had her jewels stolen and Taylor had found that her sister Amy had stolen them. Thus he gained the help of Ethel through his knowledge of Amyls theft. At the party Miss Cartwright recognized Denby asa friend whom she had met in Paris and fallen in love with. She was, therefore, forced to choose between Denby and her sister. Denby, however, forced a show-down with Taylor and gave him a 530,000 bribe, which offer Taylor accepted. Using two of Taylorls henchmen as witnewes, Denby revealed himself as R. J., a secret service a- gent, and immediately arrested Taylor for accepting bribesg he proved him to be the mysterious blackmailer of the customs house. Amy is saved and Miss Cartwright's affections for Denby materialize. The play was presented on the evenings of April 29th and 30th and each mem- ber of the cast did justice to his part. The proceeds of the play go to the Annual fund and toward the Seniors' gift to the school. The following seniors were members of the cast: Ethel Cartwright ,.....,.........
