If you miss one, there's sure to be another along soon . Actually, MEN ARE LIKE STREET CARS was the name of the humorous play pre- sented by the Junior Class on April 28, 1956. Jan, a sixteen year old girl and the star of the play, described herself as Besides being almost a blonde with a milky white complexion who knows how to wear clothes, I am of a naturally kindly disposition. How- ever, she seldom forgot her class motto which was Ev- ery Girl for Herself. Jan has a line which she claimed, when used cor- rectly, worked all the time. This line could be used to help tonguetied girls like her cousin Joy get a boyfriend. But, when Joy applied the line to Jan's boyfriends, Jan wished she never had invented the line. The play en- volved an entanglement of comical incidents. Mr. Brown directedthe play, and Larry Myers assisted him. The entire cast at the dress rehearsal. , l j ti ' ca- 4ff?f7.,f A. 4?
