 Qaif. Gay Marshall, an attractive young girl, yet a wallflower—May Shields. Miss Betty Marshall, a typical, straight-laced old maid—Elayne Kline. James Warren, her bachelor uncle, the local banker—Jack Abney. Bobby Ellis, a boy whom girls shun and mothers adore—Bob Rowlinson. Annette Burns, a girl whom girls Jenvy and mothers discuss—Helen Dick Royster, owner of a smooth line and a roadster—Bob Zach. Elsie, Jean, Millie, girl friends of Gay— Christine Hayes, Elizabeth Steele, Euleta Plummer. Gay Marshall has been reared by her maiden aunt and bachelor uncle, yet, contrary to her name, she is not “gay”. When Annette Burns, who declares she was “born with a fever”, an old friend of Gay, returns to town with Dick Royster, a crook and a swindler, Gay decides to revolt and kick over the traces of a staid small town existence. She deserts Bobby, her well-mannered boy friend, for Dick Royster, who sneaks the combination to Uncle Warren’s safe and tries to get Gay to elope with him. Dick’s real identity is revealed by Annette just in time to save Gay, who is once more united with Bobby. A pinsetter’s life is hard and steady, You’re always there and you’re always ready. Someone comes in and you’re off with a start. You race to the pits as fast as a dart. You slam in the pins and you set the rack down; They bowl another one and you’re off with a frown. After you set for quite a long time, You wish it were the very last line. You’re tired and you’re sleepy; oh, how your back aches! You dred to think of how long it takes. The game is over and you’re out of the pit. And you hit for the seats and rest a little bit. Well, the night is almost at an end When in come some more around the bend. You’re the only one there so you walk to the pit, This time you couldn’t even rest a little bit. So, do as I say and you’ll never set pins. Or you will die before the day ends. Woline. Director: Miss Groth. 7 4e Pi+vieiteA. Everett Beam. The American flag waving high in the sky Is a symbol of freedom to you and I. Long may it wave O’er the land of the brave And may it never fall , But go on waving for us alL The axis leaders may brag But they’ll never take our flag. For they haven’t the courage For us to discourage And we’ll lick them with ease Whenever we please. Bill Christenson. —28—
