N Four Englishmen are enjoying a quiet game of cards little suspecting that their quiet discussion will bring a trip around the world, make the headlines, and cost them a high price. We have plenty of time to get on the ship, says Jon Dunning to his unbelieving valet, Mike Bishop Rosie Guentert, the princess, waits camlyg while Larry Kaufman, Scotland Yard detective, lurks behind the cargo. m Hanouno the wonlo un eight oays 'Right on time, Mr. Foggy we'll make it yet! But neither Mr. Fogg nor his valet are counting on the delays that will be caused by the interested couple looking on. Around the World in 80 Days was the senior class play of 1958. The fast-moving, humorous drama was presented to the student body on December 4 and 5 with an evening per- formance on December 5. Under the direction of Mrs. Lagessie, the leading characters, Jon Dunning, Mike Bishop, and Jane Stull, became charming personalities with delightful English accents. The play originated in London as Philias Fogg took a wager of 20,000 pounds that he could travel around the world in 80 days. The next scene took-place at a Suez dock where the detective, Mr. Fix, tried to catch Philias for a bank robbery. Having failed, he made another unsuccessful try at Bombay. The next scene included an exciting Indian attack on an American train. The play came to a dra- matic close when to everyone's surprise, Mr. Fogg collected the wager. Another Redskin bit the dust! The Englishman jon Dunning, and the American Jim Grounds, join forces tn tight the Indians led. by Denny Hogan.

Come on out! We know you're there! Jim Morgan if .. ff . if f You've cleaned my saddle shoes-I'll never live it Searches for stowiways as Nanci Walsh and Mafilim down! Steve Rich indignantly tells Ron Schraeder Bender look fearfully C?J on. Jumons take spotlight with fmst pla Someday when you get older, as you sit in your old rocking chair, sort of reminiscing, your thoughts may stray back to the Junior Play of '59. In spite of your maturity, you'll have to giggle when you remember how funny it was to see Cornelia Skinner and Emily Kimbrough get into all the iixes that they did. How they got out of them was even funnier! Under the supervision of Miss Yeager, you'll remember, there were two casts-both terrific. Kiss me and I'll scream! I said I would and I will. EEEEEEEEEEEEEHV' Linda Bowton lets Bill Crowel know about her vocal cords. You can't help but remember how the juniors iilled with pride when they so carefully counted the big, little, and so-so laughs. It'll come into mind that this year the play was given for the school in the morning instead of the afternoon. This new setup proved to turn out very well. Also, it didn't give the casts as much time to be nervous. Yes, as you reminisce, you'll recall the good old days and the Junior Play of '59. Oh, I thought I'd never see my money bag again! Linda Richardes and Linda Bowton say as they thank Vince Piotrowski for returning the money bags that they had just thrown away. , Ei 5 1 i : - ' S l z 'Viz 3 Y g - XE g f
