 If This Be Bliss” —a comedy in three acts by Albert Johnson was presented at the High School Auditorium, November 14 by the Junior class under the supervision of Mr. Kenney. The scene of the play is a combination home and service station run by the Smith family. It is spring and Deck Smith, who is planning very much to go on to Allbright College in the coming fall, is caught by a bad case of Spring Fever and suddenly becomes engaged to Marcella Payne. Deck exchanges his college plans for those of matrimony and plans to get married as soon as he becomes eighteen. Ma and Dad Smith want their son to be sure of the future so they take a vacation leaving their son to watch the station. Dutch Kelly and Dash Harris, two co-eds from Allbright College, with the aid of Joe Pauley, a college representative, finally, despite the confusion of the situation, persuade Deck to leave Marcella and go on to college.

 Best SellecI' was the three-act play presented by the Senior class of '48 on Friday, April 23. The plot involves a small town girl who writes a best selling novel and becomes, almost overnight, famous at the expense of her friends and neighbors, whose private lives she has used as material for her story. 'She calls her novel FALSE FACES because she has seen how her neighbors and friends behave one way in public and another way in their private lives. Unknown to Alicia, her friends see their own lives in the book and they offer her extreme trouble. In spite of all the work her friends took to hide their false faces, Alicia revealed them as they actually were and with some difficulty she finally proves this to them.
