On March 24 a capacity crowd enthusiastically received the 1960 senior class play. George Kaufman and Moss Hart's Pul- itzer prize winning comedy entitled You Can't Take It With You. The curtain rose to reveal the unusual living room of the Vanderhof household. Al Grant portrayed Grandpa Vanderhof, the philosophizing head of the household who had suddenly left a thriving business many years before because he felt he'd have more fun at home collecting snakes. Other members of the household included Cathy Collins as Penny Sycamore, a flighty would-be-playright: Dick North as Paul Sycamore, whose experiments in the firecracker business often exploded and rocked the entire house: Helge Tolleshaug as Mr. De Pinna, who came to the house to deliver ice eight years previously and had been there ever since helping to make fireworks: Ianice Iudson as Essie Carmichael. an aspiring ballet danccer who also operated a flourishing candy business: Ioe Hupfer as Ed Carmichael, who delivered Essie's candy whenever she was able to tear him away from the printing press, his pride and joy: Renee Louis as Rheba, the negro maid who dished up both food and hilarious comments: David Osgood as Donald, Rheba's boy friend who helped out occasionally as the butler and managed to confuse everybody: and, finally, Sharon Hanson as Alice Sycamore, the sweet and completely normal granddaughter. The Vanderhof's ever confusing family life was made even more involved when Tom Hitzler as Henderson, a representative of the International Revenue Department, was mistaken for Alice's new boy friend, who later turned up and turned out to be Tony Kirby, the son of an influential Wall Street executive, played by Steve Elliott. This budding romance seemed doomed when Tony's extremely prop- er parents, played by Rob Shirey and Barbara Rogge, arrived on the wrong night to find Essie in the middle of a ballet lesson by her voluble Russian instructor, Mr. Kolenkov, played by Scott Rodman, and the house in an uproar which ended only with a raid by three F.B.I. men. Gary Loucks, Carl Roehrdanz, and Ed Russell, who expelled Gay Wellington, an inebriated actress played by Sandy Giese, from the upstairs bedroom. All ended happily, however, with a family gathering attended by every- one including the pacified Kirbys and an extraordinary guest, the Grand Duchess Olga Katrina played by lean Goldberg. The play, which was considered a huge success, was well worth the many hours of practice and the hard work put into it. However, the production could not have been possible without the help of the stage crews. Our thanks are extended first of all to Mr. Iames Schroom, who so enthusiastically and willingly directed the play to its success. He was ably helped by the assistant directors, Pat Maison and Mr. Donald Lubitz, a practice teacher. In charge of properties were Lois Piotter, chairman, and Bill Haase, Marge Hall, Carl Roehrdanz, Paula Wright, and Carol Kleineshay. Others on the production staff included: prompter, Pat Merk: make-up, Iean Summers, chain-nan, and Ianet Beusch, lean Breitung, Sherry Bruns, Sandy Firle, Barbara Green, Bette Haberkorn, Marilyn Kaiser, Sue Kintzler, Ieannine Marvin, Colleen Murphy, Dorothy Newell, Margie Puddy, Sandy Randall, Marlene Schmidt, Ianice Schoepke, and Iune Thorson: sound effects, Carl Roehrdanz, Tom Hitzler, and Mr. Lubitz: lighting, Louise Whelan: set design, Ieanette Ackerer and Barbara Bunker: stage crew, Lonnie Rauls, stage manager, and Tom Cutler, Dick Daleiden, Tom Titzler, and Gary Loucks: publicity, Pat Buslaff: business manager, Peter Gilles: faculty advis- or, Miss Stepnoski: and ushers, Doris Condel, lean Deanovich, Bob Edgarton, Carol Haag, Carole Hansen, Ianet Kirchoff, Karl Koehler, Pot McLain, Shirley Rateike, Dave Schwark, Fritz Schultz, and David Tank. The senior class play of 1960 will long be remembered by the cast as a thrilling experience, by the stage crews as well worth the hard work , and by the audience as a professional job, well done. l'zli:v Sixty-nine
