OPERETTA “Waltz Dream” was the title of the operetta presented this year by the school May 6 7, in the Auditorium. This operetta was a great favorite on Broadway, but because of the complexity, in speech, dramatics, and music as well, il was rarely ever attempted to be produced by high schools. However, special praise is due the various directors, and the cast, itself, for putting on a splendid performance both nights. Miss Helen Dickey had charge of the music, Mr. Kenneth Loomis directed the dramatics, and Miss Betty Breth supervised the dancing. Miss Elizabeth Rudd took charge of the costumes and Mr. Kline Loomis promoted the sale of tickets. Mr. Howard Pardee deserves extra credit for his fine work with the orchestra. Miss Ava Ballou and Mr. Kline Loomis assisted with make up. leading parts were taken by: Curtis Crews, James Loomis, Mary Anna Mosher, Richard Miltner, Louise Narducci, Mary Kelly, Alfred Hoel, Jane Duffett, Charles H.

THE SENIOR PLAY The class of ’43 scored another success in the presentation of, “Showdown at Sawtooth,” under the able direction of Miss Peck. Slim Higganbottom, an ex-desfert rat, who runs a hotel and tends an air beacon on Sawtooth Mountain has a sudden rush in business as a cloud burst washes out the roads and sends people scurrying for shelter. Slim, and Martha Ward, the owner of a roadside restaurant, suspect one of the guests to be a sabotuer, who is there to put the beacon out of commission. Elmira Mabee, a matrimonial bureau husband-seeking woman; Captain Lowell Cartwright, apparently on some secret mission; Annie Little Pony, Slim’s bargaining Indian cook; Josiah Tuttle, an absent-minded professor; Lulu Hugger, a brazen sort of hussy; Capt. Leroy Cartwright, whose signature is similar to Lowell’s; and Ben Lawrence are all suspected. When the beacon is smashed Ben reveals himself as an F. B. I. agent and proceeds to solve the mystery with Lulu Hugger as the culprit.
