. rmcir piaij At 8 00 P. M. on May 17, the class of T 1 presented a new ty]ie mystery-comedy in three acts, “It’s All In Your Head.” The play, written by Charles Quiinby Runlette, pictures the Prescott family who, after living all of their lives in an apartment in Chicago, move out to the suburbs into an old inherited house. Mrs. Prescott, a laudably ambitious mother, has the idea that she wants the family to live graciously. Her easy going husband, Webster, has a time finding enough outfits to fit the nature of the work he has to do. Mitchell and Lissy Prescott are a typical, young, teenage brother and sister who talk in modern teen-age language. The Prescotts' oldest child, Isabel, is rather self-centered and full of college life. Things really start happening when the maid, Anna Lucasky, and a next door neighbor, Enoch Twitchell, arrive at the household. Other guests over the week-end are Peter Wesley, Gurney Shaw, and Belle Lamont. The other character who brings suspense and action to the plot is a big black cat that succeeds in breaking some of the family's most treasured belongings.
