Seniors Triumph Atop Stubborn Beasts Bright lights beamed throughout the gym as the crowds streamed into the area. Everyone was set for an exciting, laughter-filled evening. Basketball is fun in itself, but with the addi-of donkeys you can’t miss. The clock ticked its way around to 7:30, and the first game began with the Seniors challenging the Varsity Club. It was a steal for the Seniors with a final score of 24 to 12. In the final game the Seniors triumphed over the teachers with a score of 12 to 6. Donkey basketball proved to be another victory for the Seniors. (Ac right): An unidentified player hangs from the basket to make an assist, good for another two points for the Seniors. Mr. Vaara wants to know how you can score a basket when you don’t have the ball and your donkey won’t move! The seniors won this one, 12—6. Frustrated at being unable to get his donkey in gear, Jerry Powell gives up and decides to wave at the audience. (Below): Taking the opportunity when this animal stood still, Mr. Mauti takes Mr. Kenyon’s place ... to be promptly bucked off.

(At rightj: Clerk of the Court (Fred Manning) is swearing in witness Magda Svenson (Mary Robbins) with Judge Heath (Dave Galligan) looking on. Accused Murderess Acquitted Trial date of Karen Andre, held for the murder of the late Bjorn Faulkner, was set for April 8th and 9th by the presiding judge, the honorable William Heath. Faulkner, prominent financier was found last January 16, around midnight, a disfigured mass, at the foot of the Faulkner Building. On the night of Faulkner’s death, Karen Andre, Faulkner’s lovely but infamous private secretary was found, by patrolman Elmer Sweeney, while sobbing over Faulkner’s body. Miss Andre was wearing a diamond studded evening dress which was ripped and torn. After calming down somewhat, she told police that Faulkner had tried to shoot himself, that she struggled with him and he was wounded, but managed to leap from her penthouse garden. Miss Andre also told police that Faulkner committed suicide because he had stretched his credit to the utmost and there was no more to be had; his complete financial enterprises were about to crash!” Mrs. Faulkner, the former Nancy Whitfield, and her father John Graham Whitfield, ruthless president of the Whitfield National Bank, made a surprise showing at the trial. They testified along with the many other witnesses, each fitting his mystifying piece into the puzzle. Thus went the Junior Play, a trial, witnesses, stories, conflicting facts and the verdict. In three out of four trials Karen Andre was found not guilty, but were the juries right in their decisions?
