Ask An Girl The Senior Class received little recognition, but a great deal of satisfaction from their production of Ask Any Girl in January, 1965. The comedy cen- tered around the romantic triangle of a small town girl, Arlene Victor, husband-seeking in New York, and two brothers, Ray Biggs and Clint Starr, who own a New York advertising agency. The main plot was ushered along' by Arlene, Clint, and Ray in the main lobby of the Madison Avenue Girls' Hotel while the other actors wandered on and off the stage. Four memorable characters were Jan Umphrey and Linda Cox, cast as Arlene-'s two spinster aunts, and Gary Lockwood portraying a shipping clerk who thought he was a painter to the dismay of Barbara Balsom , receptionistatthe hotel. But the character who brought howls of joy from the audience as she thumped across the stage, grumbling of calories, chocolate-layer cake, and a lack of males was Christine McKelvey.

S. with stars in their eyes during 1965 were not light-headed lovers awakened by the spring but rather members of the Astronomy Club. Although several of their activities were unsuccessful and their numbers few, they actively and constantly engaged in discovering the wonders of the uni- verse around us through the lenses of their telescopes. President John Mosley organized several star parties throughout the year, at which mem- bers gathered to look upward and outward. The members probed the mys- teries oi the Milky Way individually, sometimes with disappointment, some- times with satisfaction, but always wanting to know more.
