VALLEY BUGLE '40 Tree Points Inn This year's annual Senior Play saw the introduction of an innovation in our school clramatics in that the double cast system was used. This proved to be both a financial and artistic success. Tree Points Inn , a comedy-mystery, was presented before large audiences on the nights of March 14 and 15. It was greeted enthusiastically, being the first mystery to be given in many years. Much of the success was due to the efficient technical staff. The stage managers were Annice Gleason and Helen Tuttle. Ioseph Neporadny was lighting chairman: Leonard Strauss had charge of sound effects: settings were supervised by William Thurston and Thaddeus Best. Mildred Bridges and Iudith Dye were responsible for properties, Myrtle Adams, costumes, and lean Ritz, make-up. Appearing in Thursday night's cast were: Betty Wolf, Raymond Wolinski, Tom Hart, Barbara Neilson, Gliver Wilhelm, Stanley Wehling, Adeline Walgus, Phyllis Ranney, Leo Bobsein, Patricia Case, Iames Vaughn, and Betty Olson. Friday night's cast was composed of Geraldine Mount, Stanley Scott, Levant I-Iimelein, Betty Siegrist, Albert Markham, Robert Mesches, George Allen, Dorothy Capella, Maxine DeGolyer, Leora Schmitt, Norton Fluker, and Margaret Westlund.
