1929 Cllgintimini e lilag i Seventeen Perhaps the most outstanding of the accomplishments of the Senior Class of '29 was the presentation of the play Seventeen. The east and Miss Mable Bennett worked hard in order to present such a fine entertainment and we wish to commend them upon it. It was thoroughly appreciated by a large audience. Seventeen by Booth Tarkington is a well known story and the play is even better known. It is a story of youth and summer time. Willy Baxter, played by Robin Batcheller, a boy, at the in- between age of 17 feels that he has grown up and deserves to be treated as a man. He is very much hurt because his father, Mr. Baxter, played by Warren Reid, refuses to give him a dress suit-his life-long ambition. Mrs. Baxter, played by Mildred Nixon, tries to help him as she realizes the boy is at a critical stage of live. About this time a girl comes and visits the city for the summerg she is Lola Pratt, played by Eloise Winkley. jane, played by Ruth Vance, was Willy's little sister. She was the comedy part of the play. Mark Briggs played the part of the negro servant. XVynetta Guthrie played the part of May Parcher, the girl whom Lola came to see. Mr. Pareher, Donald Robinson, can't stand Lola's baby talk. She is known as the Baby talk Lady. johnny Watson QI-Ieinz Heubnerj George Crooper QHarold Wfhitcsidej joe Bullitt fTed Gold- smithj and Ethel Bokc Clisther -Iaeksonl gather to give Lola a farewell party.

Wlii1t is it that you wish my little man? said an old bent figure in the doorway. The little boy shyly edged nearer to the famed character, I wish you would tell me something about the class of '29 please. Ah! my little man, you are asking a lot, but let me see. Father Time leans his scythe against the wall and turns back the pages in his huge record book. Here we are. Wliilt do you want to know about this class? I would like to know what they are doing now, stated the child precisely. So the old man seated himself on a chair and the little boy sat on a stool at his knee.
