QIO SYNOPSIS OF THE PLAY 'k 'A' 'A' THE SENIOR CLASS IN FOUR ACTS Attention all theatre Soersl A new play has just been nominated for the Pulitzer Prize of I939. Critics acclaim The History of the Senior Class as the most original play of its kind ever to play on a New jersey stage. It is for the benefit of those who were unfortunate enough to miss the premiere, that we attempt to familiarize them with some of the outstanding highlights of the spectacular story. Scores of dramatic scenes are scattered throughout four acts. First nighters, hurry to your seats now, for the first act has begun. Why, I recognize that building! lt's Belleville High School and the afternoon session has just started. See the Freshmen? They managed to find their classes all rightg that's half the battle won. I wonder how they like to walk home in the dark. Oh look! I just saw William Davis. Something tells me that he'II be elected president once they get organized. With that born politician Gerard Ferrara as vice-president, Shirley Bitz as treasurer, and Alyce Hart as secretary, that Freshman class ought to go far, especially when gheyj have such excellent class guides as Mr. Norman Cotter and Miss Rose rue man. I imagine this class will pick Christmas time for their social dance of the year, for they believe in celebrating the holidays. They know fairly well just what to do from now on, so we'll leave them on their own for the rest of the school year. There will be a brief intermission between the acts. You know even actors have to rest between performances. Here we are again, back in our seats, settling down to enjoy the second act of this delightful drama. Can this confident Sophomore class be the timid group of last year? That is what a year of experience does for a person. They intend to do big things this year. The first job they gave their approval to was the new modernistic addition to our High School. I see a strange figure in the seat of president. Why it's Nicholas Zuzzio! The offices are all changed this semester. Charles Feeney is vice-president, Shirley Bitz is secretary, and C-erard Ferrara is treasurer. There are even three class guides-Miss Blanche McDonald, Miss Regina Brennan, and Mr. George Reinke. This class has a knack for giving successful dances, judging from the favorable comment made after their Sophomore Hop. Intermission again. I can hardly wait to find out what happens in the next act. Curtain! Curtain! Third Act. There is a familiar face. It's Gerard Ferrara again, only this time he's president and has Norman Crowther by his side to lend support as vice-president. Patrick Tortorello has become secretary and Ralph Lilore is the treasurer. Mrs. Ethel Kapp, Miss Linnea Andrea, and Mr. Paul jones are active guides. In fact the whole class is
