Senior Class Play Three would be heroines in distress Flexing muscles for the hero's part Selecting the play The stage manager checks the lights General try outs Trying out for the villain's role Mr. Howarth checks through the play. One sure way to plunge present day audiences in- to gales of riotous laughter is to show them the pure and down-trodden heroine being pursued by the black-hearted villaing and when she has fallen into the rascal's clutches, bring on the manly-bosomed hero to foil the villain and rescue the heroine in the nick of time. On the night of May l, 1953, the sen- ior class did just that by presenting PURE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW: OR A WORKING GIRL'S SECRET. Never has an audience seen a more persecuted her- oine than Purity Dean, a more fiercely moustached rogue than Mortimer Frothingham fDoesn't that name reek of villainy? I, or a nobler hero than Leander Longfellow, who follows the romantic call- ing of working in a pickle factory. On a dark and stormy night Purity Dean seeks shelter from the storm and comes to the inn run by Leander's Uncle, Jonathan Logan, and his good wife, Zamah. She has been forced to give up her work in a canning facto- ry because she cannot endure the attentions of Mor- timer Frothingham. From then on the audience was able to hiss the villain and applaud the hero to their hearts content throughout the many situations that Purity found herself in until the end of the play when, naturally, virtue triurnphs and the final cur- tain sees the heroine resting her fair head on Leander's broad and manly chest. 35
