uniot-.geniot fanguet On Saturday evening, April 23, 1955, the iuniors were hosts to the six senior members and high school faculty at the Breeze House in Ankeny. The theme chosen and carried out through- out the banquet was Gay Paree . The tables were decorated attractively in keeping the theme. They were covered with light blue paper, centered with vases of beautiful flowers, and the favors were little French pipe-cleaner men clothed in smocks, pants, and berets, holding a little artist's paint brush along side of them. During the meal, we enjoyed a selection of records. All participants at the banquet received a corsage of carnations centered with rose buds, or a boutonniere .

CAST SYNOPSIS in three acts on Delores Miller Donna Crosby Bruce Mericle Helen Boten Dick Kaufman Sharon Wilson Bernadine Wicks Karen Flynn Ronald Weuve Warren larson Robert Turner Karen Taylor Karen Taylor Mr. Begg A timid soul sometimes comes out of her shell and proves to be a roaring whirlwind--at least that happened in the case of Mrs. Edith Gilman, who, during most of her married life, had been dominated by her husband, Warren, and by her three children: the lively wisecracking Dan, pert, pretty Judy, and attractive Gilda, whose chief aim in life was to be an opera singer. Without the knowledge of her family, Mrs. Gilman had spent a number of months in writing, during her spare time, a book called The Art of Ruling Your Household --months of wishful thinking, no doubt. To her amazement, however, the book was accepted by an established pub- lishing firm. Mrs. Gilman became a national celebrity, rediscovered self-confidence, ana astounded all the members of her household--including the comical, outspoken maid, Lena. 28
