Page Fifty-six PUB PETE'5 BAKE ''Hong-jer-mong-jer-mong! Thus did Peter Pepperdine and Bill Bradshaw keep the bespectacled Thorndyke Murglethorpe under their thumbs. The antics of these three lively boys furnished the material for the three-act comedy, For Pete's Sake, which was produced by the Dramatics A class of the Du Sable High School on Ianuary 18, 1940. When Peter's Atmt Sarah decided to go to the Holy Land and leave Peter at home to be coached in Latin by Muggsy, the fun began. Peter and his pal Bill rented the Pepperdine mansion to Georgiana Clarkston, Aunt Sarah's arch enemy. Disguised as servants, Peter and Bill hoped to spy on their girls, Nadine and Peggy Clarkston, to determine how serious were the intentions of Banker Bolivar and Dupont Darby. To force the cooperation of Iasmine, the superstitious cook, the boys had to turn Grandfather Pepperdine's ghost loose in the house. The incredulity of Malvina Potts and Dean Murglethorpe tMuggsy's uncle! caused the boys serious trouble. But real complications arose when Aunt Sarah unexpectedly returned home to find the Clarkstons and three sinister looking servants fPeter as the butler, Bill as the hay-fever gardener, and Muggsy as the flirting housemaidl installed in her house. Eventually Bill was acclaimed a hero when he rescued Peter and Muggsy from this trio, but even his heroism could not save Peter from the despised Latin!
