THESPIONEER 27 Oe a aa SOPHOMORE CLASS “Ya” know to be a sophomore class “ya gotta be sorta” patient. As a class, nobody notices you. All the glint, luster, and glitter of the first freshman days has tarnished long ago. We took our initiation on the chin and “came up” smiling, but that seems to be “sorta” forgotten. Our president, Kiki Gray, and our sponsor, Miss Cooney, really did a marvelous job during our freshman year; and we “aren’t so bad” in our choice this year— Bill Preuninger and Miss Johnson. But don’t “get us wrong”! We're “rearin’ and ready” to take over the position held by this year’s Juniors. CWIAICAOF © SENIOR PLAY “Going Places” was the appropriate title of a farce in three acts given on November 25, 1941. The plot centers around getting Chuck Malloy (Daryl Hagie) a whiz at football, but a dud at Ancient History, into Dartford College. But they have to contend with Dr. Stubbs (Clark Hilton) and Dr. Kimball, president of the college (Junior Tope). Ella Kimball (Pat Wackerlin) is the wife of the president. Jeff Sterling, student football manager (Bill Louther), enlists the help of Shirley, Dr. Kimball’s daughter (Mary Gray), Rosemary Lee (Patty Anderson), an attractive co-ed, and Gladys Miller, a music student and part-time maid of the Kimballs (Alice Galbraith). The plot thickens as Cuthbert Lee (John Sullivan), highbrow cousin of Rosemary, takes Chuck’s exam, Dr. Kimball is kept guess- ing as to who is Kate Malloy, Chuck’s rich aunt, because Mrs. Stubbs (Mabel Stevens), wife of Dr. Stubbs, and Florence Ward (Margaret Birkeland), a magazine feature writer, each in turn portray Aunt Kate. When Aunt Kate (Betty Schmidt) finally appears, every- thing is worked out. Chuck and Cuthbert are admitted to the college, and Aunt Kate endows a new college library. CYILDCDOFO STUNT DAY It’s all over for another year! The Seniors sponsored their annual Stunt Day on April 10. It was rather windy, but we marched all over town, led by the German Band, while people on the side lines took snapshots and moving pictures. Of the various stunts, the Freshmen won first prize for their interpretation of the Faculty in their younger years. The sophomores gave “Father Gets Took” and took second prize. With a modern version of Little Red Riding Hood, the Seniors placed third. Leona Reichelt, as Little Red Riding Hood won a prize for the best girl’s costume. Kenneth Vinion, as the Nazi prisoner, had the most original boy’s costume and Lee Katzenberger had the funniest boy’s costume. Lurene Anderson and Lorraine Baker won the prize for the best couple, the Rinso twins.
