SENIOR PLAY The Senior Play, directed by Mrs. Parker, was presented in the high school auditorium on the even- ing of April 28, 1939. The play, entitled nLittle Jimmie Jonesn, was filled with the lively spirit of modern boys and girls about whom it centered. James Jodrel Jones Jr. Khick Yostl, known as ulittle Jimmie Jonesn, is faced at the age of nine- teen with the serious problem of choosing his life's work. He has large ideas, but they do not impress his father iMarion Boutwelll, who is very set in his ways. In fact his father Wsees redn every time Jim ie mentions his belief that all one needs to succeed in life is nerve and publicit . J1mmie's mother iMarjorie Willey? is in sympa- thy with her son and believes that he should be al- lowed to lead his own life instead of being forced into his father's grocery business as his father wishes e During his father's absence on a business trip, Jimmie proceeds to put his theory into practice. He arranges a series of personal appearances advertis- ing men's wear in a uniqle manner in the windows of the department store owned by Mrs. Davenport CEdna Henr J He is ottin alon well when some unfortu- Y - ' EW S S nate publicity with Gladys Glamour CNancy Gouldsmi a movie star, and her jealous fiance Van Dyke Van Horn lRussell-Wrightl, causes him to lose out en- tirely. Even his friends begin to doubt him, but a favorable turn of public sentiment caused'by a flat- tering article written about him by Nora Newman lVivian Obertl, an important newspaper columnist, changes everything. Jimmie receives a big-paying job, with eventual fame, and wins his fathor's ap- proval. The wise cracks and capers of Jimmie's friends Stuff CCharles Bartonl, 'abby CCarrie Langworthyl, Biff YMorr1son Orrl, Cuddles KGeraldine Tolanl, and Pickles CMarjorie Ongleyl--give the play all the charm of modern youth. After many difficulties, the amusing romance between Jimmie and Pickles finally ends well in spite of the interference of her snooty mother, Mrs. Prescott CLeora Mortonl. A
