Senior Clas 5 Play The house lights dimmed, a hush fell over the audience, the curtains parted, and our succes,sful senior class play was under way. The audience was kept in stitches as the trials and tribulations of Philip and his bride, Georgia Page un- folded. Their troubles were many, for they suddenly found themselves confronted with the visit of his Uncle and Aunt, neither one of them knowing of their mar- riage and both of them thoroughly opposed to matrimony. They had to think quickly and they didoPhilip at the ihsistence of his wife disguised himself as her best girl friend in order to fool her Aunt and later in the play Georgia disguised her- self as her husband's best pal, in order to outwit the Uncle. Also to make matters worse, there was an escaped lunatic, a funny old negro servant who was possessed of many imaginary ills and who couldn't remember peoples names, an old maid who wanted to mend her ways and capture a husband a girl-friend trying to warn the Pages of the lunatic and an officer trying to cap- ture the lunatic. Complications piled up until Phil and Georgia found themselves in what seemed a hopeless muddle. Finally things straightened out when the Aunt and Uncle met and fell in love, a perfect ending to this hilarious comedy.
