1 9-SIMCOE-3 5 can be seen a number of figures. In the center of the group is Gordon Hill, who is teaching the native Hawaiian girls to do the hula hula, and seems to be doing all right. SCENE XVIII Next comes a scene in the life of Bruce Crowe. Bruce is a high-pressure salesman, who has been traveling for a number of years selling Louise Linden's Dimple Cream. Bruce is a very successful salesman, fairly hypnotizing his victims by his eloquence in praising Louise's product, which is guaranteed to make dimples in anything from figs to fence- posts. SCENE XIX The scene changes to that of the lot of a Hollywood movie company. A torrid love scene is taking place between the great matinee idol, Mel- vin Cable, and Norma Beyerlin. They are making a scene from the new version of Tarzan andiHis Mate. SCENE XX A motorcycle comes roaring up and stops. A stern looking traffic cop climbs off and hands a slip of paper to a man just getting into a park- ed car, and it develops that Officer McPherson is giving someone a ticket for parking too long. She ignores the pathetic appearance of the man, having no sympathy for such people. SCENE XXI This scene takes place in the workshop of the celebrated aviator and in- ventor, Ronald Roe. Ronald's latest invention is a gadget to enable aquaplanes to rise straight up from the water. But he had a little trouble installing this delicate mechanism, and got it in backwards, so the plane, instead of going up, went straight down, and Ronald is now using it as a submarine. SCENE XXII In the kitchen of a restaurant in Mexico City stands a small figure in a white cap and apron. She resembles Mildred Drury. It is revealed that Mildred is famed all over Mexico for her hot tamales, and the Mexicans like her cooking because she seasons everything well with pepper. SCENE XXIII It is in the press room of a large metropolitan newspaper that Dick Hobbs is discovered writing his daily column of poetry. Dick's write-up is modeled after that of Dean Collins in the Oregonian, called Ether. Dick's column is, however, very appropriately entitled Chloroform. SCENE XXIV The curtain goes up to reveal a Turkish harem. In the midst of a bevy of Page Twenty-Six

19-SIMCOE-3 5 SCENE X The curtain rises to reveal an airport with a crowd of people gathered around a plane. Out of the cockpit climbs that daredevil of the air, Roberta Dayton. She has just completed a round-the-world flight in 24 hours, a feat never accomplished before. The mayoress of New York, Beatrice Young, greets her enthusiastically and hands her the key to the city. Beatrice was elected on a platform of More and Bet- ter Amusements. SCENE XI The setting is still in the city of New York, but this time it is in the interior of Grand Central Station. A loud and strident voice is heard- Jersey- CityHobokenWeehawkenUnionWestNewYorkGuttenburgHackensack- andallpointsnorthln It is not difficult to recognize these bellowing tones as those of Eleanor Smith, a former G. H. S. student. SCENE XII This time the scene is the inside of a huge gold mine in the interior of Australia. This mine is owned and operated by Clifford Dugger, who perfected the intricate excavating machinery in the old days in Golden- dale, when he used to excavate for lost golf balls. SCENE XIII The curtain rises on a busy office. Seated at a large desk in the center of the room is none other than Ruth Keefhaver. Above her head hangs a sign- Lost and Found Department. The slogan below the sign reads - Articles Lost While You Wait. It is evident from this that Ruth is merely carrying out on a larger scale the activities so well begun in high school. SCENE XIV The scene is the top of a flag-pole about 120 feet above the ground. Seated on this pole is Marion Morgan. It seems that Marion got tired of hav- ing to look up to everyone, so she got herself a job as a flag-pole sitter and now, at last, she can see everything that goes on. SCENE XV Presiding at an important meeting of the Brain Trust is Professor Tug- hard Elliott, Brain Truster No. 1. Professor Elliott has as his duty the disentangling of foreign and domestic affairs. He is doing very well with the foreign affairs, but seems to be getting a little- involved in the domestic entanglements. SCENE XVI As the curtain goes up a loud Oink! Oink! is heard. A woman comes from a farmhouse in the background and begins to feed the drove of hogs which gathers affectionately around her. As she pushes back the brim of her sunbonnet, the face of Helen Suksdorf Hoctor is revealed. SCENE XVII The scene shifts to one of tropical beauty. Among the luxuriant verdure Page Twenty-Five

However, he seems to be reviving under the influence of these charming damsels. SCENE XXV A scene in a deaf and dumb school is next shown. Standing in the classroom among her pupils is Pauline Conlee. Pauline is making a great success of her job, teaching the dumb pupils chiefly by example. It develops, however, that she is planning to resign her job to marry Byron, and thus become a sister-in-law to the former Edythe Nickerson. Edythe has gone completely domestic and can always be found darning hubby's socks. SCENE XXVI In this scene Helen Skar can be seen taking over Pauline's job. It is to be hoped that Helen can keep this job longer than her others. In every position she held before, her employer caught an acute attack of the giggles from her and had to go away for a rest cure, thus throwing Helen out of work. SCENE XXVII On the porch of a rambling white house sits a serene, smiling lady. She is A Frances Schuster, who is the matron of the largest old ladies' home in The the country. , SCENE XXVIII curtain goes up on an episode from the greatest athletic contest of the century. There is intense excitement in the crowd and all eyes are fixed on two iigures battling at the center of the stage. They seem to be evenly matched. One of the figures draws back and takes careful aim. The crowd holds its breath. The figure lets go a terrific blow, the crowd gasps, and Pete Smith is proclaimed the tiddley-wink champion of the United States. Final Curtain l Page Twenty-SGVSII
