ACT IV In this our final act, we again find Mrs. Snow, who has so ably carried us over the many pitfalls which beset us in rehearsals, as our director. Always seeking new talent, we contracted Lois Foster for Prompter, Warren Lyndaker for Assistant Prompter, Donna L'Huillier as Script Writer, and Marcia LeFevre as Financial Backer. Our cast was lessened by the departure of Richard Spearel, Eugene Demo, Gerald Ritz, and Edna Monnat. Our idea of selling magazines before the act so the audience could read between scenes was a big success. Due to the length of this act we sold ice cream as a refresher. To further our finances, we produced, a play entitled Maybe Love and also a Thanks- giving dance. The producers and directors put on a play— The Variety Show for the amusement of the cast and, for music lovers, there was added entertainment. With the capacity of the Senior Class for providing fun for all, we sponsored a Poor Man's Carni- val. Our one last fling was the Alumni dance with everybody participating. 17
