UTHE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY THE only amateur production which has been presented over and over again and still holds its lasting success in Highland Park is the tragic melodrama, The Land of Opportunityf, The curtain is scheduled to rise on the first act at 3:30 every afternoon. At exactly 3:31 the leading man, Roy Hanson, supported by Dale Cochran and Robert Graham, the comic relief, saunters ambitiously into the room to find the lead- ing lady, Freda Ketcherside, just taking a breathing spell after a dash up the stairs to avoid being too late. When fifteen minutes later uThe Old Repeater, William Renbarger, peeks cautiously into the keyhole, deposits his gum on the doorknob and enters, Miss Welty showers her wrath down upon them. In all due time the curtain rises on the first act in which all members of the cast are seen busily flipping pages of psychology and history books, and a solemn, dull stillness settles down upon Miss Welty's colorful little room. When the correct page is at last located, the second act begins marked by a sigh from each long-suffering soul. Heads are bent in earnest pretense of study and only a pencil scratching jerkily across a sheet of yellow paper breaks the calm following the storm. The minutes creep by exasperatingly slowly but at last Miss Welty's '6You may golw reaches the eager ears of those soul-mates of the tortured. The third act shows the cast creeping docilely out of the room before Miss Welty's calm and deliberate gaze. However, when the door is reached, the hall resounds with the uwhoopees and hurrahsl' of the victims of MThe Land of Opportunityf, Curtains! ODE TO A HB -with apologies to Joyce Kilmer I think that I shall never see A grade as lovely as a MBT, A UB that some smart person gets, I claim that such are teachers' pets. A MBT for which I'd work all day And maybe condescend to pray. A MBU that might enable me To quit the school at half past three Instead of going to two-o-one For make-up work I should have done, uD's,, are made by fools like me, But heaven knows who can make a MBT 15
