x THE SENIOR AND SJPHOMORE PLAYS Never in all the years of Gilman High School plays has there been two better ones than the senior and sophomore performan- ces of February 4, 1945! The Barrymores themselves would havetenx surprised at the remarkable acting in UQuiet Pleaseu and UBuddy Buys an Orchidn. Outside of the Northeast, Harbor Neighborhood Hall, before the plays, a number of policemen stood in the miserable rain di- recting the traffic! The huge crowd poured into the hall hours before the curtain. Great personalities, like the governor, a few noted Broadway stars, and a number of reporters and photo- graphers were present. Finally the hall lights were off, the fcotlights were on,and the curtain was going up. Y The first play was the senior's, nQuiet Pleasen. This fast moving comedy got plenty of hearty laughs from beginning to end. The actors and actresses were: Clifford Manchester as Jeff, James Walls, Jr. as his brother, Judd, Sunnyville Christian Society, with Ralph Wright as Rev. Andrews, Bette Beale as Mattie, Hester Seavey as Jessica, and Verlie Walls as Josie. Catherine, a stran- ger, would have been played by Madeline Bucklin, but due to 'ill- ness Charlene halls substituted. After the first great performance, the noted Gilman High School Band played a number of selections under the direction of Mrs. Bradford Herrick, who also staged the plays. Then the crowd was thrilled to see the curtain gc up on the second performance. It was the sophomorefs play WBuddy Buys an Orchidn. The play proved to the audience what great acting abil- ity and talent the sophomore class has! It showed, with the touches of comedy, the troubles and worries a teen-age boy, of the modern day hiss., The cast was as follows: Virgil Walton as Buddy, Rebecca Taylor as Mrs. Bradley, Euddy's mother, Charlene Walls as Alida, his sisterg Eleanor Halls as the maid, Belle 3 and Clifton Damon would have played Bill, Alida's friend, but due to illness, Gordan Falt substituted.
