THE HEY-DEY NINETIES WE AIN'T WI-IATOFWE USED TO BE Ta-ra-ra-Boom-Tee-Yay! The Nineties they were gay! The drama it was melo- With villain quite, quite yellow, And hero, who so brave, The Charleston home did save And long before the Quins were yet, The Elorodora was Sextette. Ta-ra-ra-BoomfTee-Yay! The Nineties they were gay! Ereshies blowing bubbles Blew away our troubles. The Blue Danube was gay, The waltz had its heyday. And in the wierdest garb arrayed Did l89O dress-parade. Ta-ra-ra-Boom-Tee-Yay! The Nineties they were gay! Waiters with moustache Sang with lusty dash. Of Pretty Babies gay In Rhinestone Annie's cafe. And from the Nineties Tin Pan Alley We made an old-time song finale.

Gert, as the adolescent Lancelot Briggs smitten with the glamorous young widow, Mrs. Curtis CMargie, resplendent and sophisticatedj, was delightful both in front of and behind the animated settee. No movie idol was ever more warmly received than the handsome Rupert, and Syvvie's love scenes with Rita were highly educational. The entrance of Mr. lngoldsby CLee, practically unrecognizable behind her whiskersj almost stopped the show, while amidst gales of laughter the audience tried to identify this Kentucky-looking Colonel who so closely resembled the Four Marx Brothers put together. Mrs. Briggs was truly a Whiz and the Mysterious Voice sounded suspiciously like Lil's. In this manner, at the Trysting Place did Rondack's wise young campers meet the Great Hoax, and learn not to put too much stock in their councillors. INVESTMENT IN JUDY Rondack took a Hier on the market and invested heavily in Jervis Pendle- ton's Investment in Judy. By a wide margin, the gamble was successful, and both Jervis and Rondack profited greatly. Chief among our gains was the discovery in our midst of that up-and- coming Garbo-Gaynor-Hepburn, Beulah Davidson, who carried Judy out of the orphan asylum, through college and into several romantic scenes with Hue dramatic skill and understanding. We recall hearing distinctly a number of lumps being swallowed in various throats at her stormy outburst of rebellion in the asylum. And Jean Field! While Judy carefully described her dear old Daddy- Long-Legs, feeble and bald, with a white fringe of hair, there stood tall, charming Jervis, every inch a matinee idol! so handsome in Gloria's' dressing- gown that our sentimental young sophisticates practically languished. As Judy might have put it, When in doubt, swoon! Lil Bader's Miss Pritchard rose nobly, if somewhat hoarsely, out of her temporary laryngitis. Surely no one would have recognized our famous Mikado in this gentle arranger of Judy's destiny! As for the tight-lipped Mrs. Lippet, it was truly a remarkable disguise for our smiling, good-humored Muriel Helfman. For the convincing atmosphere in the orphan home, the order of merit goes to the children, Beatty Wasser, Lenore Farber, Judy Weitzner and Rosa- lind Fisher, as well as to that tintype of all trustees, who looked like a June Bug, Connie Reichbach. b For the remarkable change to gay college life we bow to the art of Nat Sobol, Virginia Rosencrans, Thelma Savada, and that ultra-snooty Mrs. Pendleton, Isabel Schlifman. We all heaved a romantic sigh of relief as everything ended well under the xgis of Butler Muriel Wiesenthal and Secretary Leila Rosenzweig Griggs. However, Judy, as Jean Field, put it: Couldn't you have guessed that I was Daddy-Long-Legs?
