S.!” “All the beautiful roses, and the fas- cinating bridge scene at the entrance . . . “And wasn't that bandstand darling?” “What about those unique lamp posts, and the park benches ? “I really think, ‘A Night in Central Park' was a good theme.” “Well, it cer- tainly was different, and carried out well, too.” These are, of course, a few of the remarks made about our completely suc- cessful prom on May 2.

Senior Qlass cPlay “SHE’S GOT EVERYTHING” Carol Rodgers (Arlene Preble), a suppos- edly wealthy young lady returns from a Euro- pean trip, only to be confronted with the hith- erto unknown to her, debts of her father. The morning after her arrival she is awakened by three creditors. Miss Zitheras (Louise Borg), Miss Lodge (Barbara Zezza), and Chaffee (John Nelson), who demand their money. Carol, however, is comforted by Mrs. Car- ter, or Aunt Jane, (Doris Bogut), who, al- though skeptical, contrives with Waldo Edg- ington (Howard Cox), an equine adviser, to get Carol married off to a wealthy bachelor. When Jane suggests to Carol that she marry a South American mine owner, she states that she doesn’t want a man, but a job. Waldo, the creditors, and Jane put their heads together and come up with a solution. Fuller Partridge (Gerard McMahon), owner of a coffee company and a very eligible bach- elor, has just fired his secretary and agrees to take Carol as his secretary if Waldo will take half interest in a horse. Fuller is afflicted with a strange suscep- tibility to nearly everything he comes in con- tact with. When he received one of his at- tacks while in Carol’s apartment, Jane sug- gusts that he stay there and let Carol nurse him back to health, the idea being that men often become very fond of their nurses. Carol overworks, however, and is sent off to Lake Glenview, a fashionable resort. There she meets Howard Courtland (William Allds), a playboy. Waldo and Jane, believing that the acquaintance has gone far enough, since Courtland is broke, notify Fuller that Carol has had a relapse. This done, they wonder how they can get Carol to appear sick, since she still knows nothing of the plot for her to marry a rich bachelor. Professor Corrio (Warren Otterson), pro- vides the solution when he attempts to hyp- notize Carol. Carol, however, does not hyp- notize so easily, but Jane comes under me professor’s spell. Fuller hears her murmuring ‘ Fuller dear’’ and believes that it is Carol who is calling for him while she is uncon- scious. This leads to a romance in which Fuller asks Carol to marry him. Later he finds out from Courtland that this was all a plot to pay off Carol’s debts. Not knowing that Carol had nothing to do with the whole affair, he proceeds to discourage her. When he finds out that she knew as little as he about the whole affair, he wants her back. She returns to him only on pretense that she will marry him. Meanwhile she is secretly plotting to elope with Courtland. The two finally get together in the end, and it is understood that they will he married. Jane and Waldo decide that it isn’t a bad idea either, and the play ends happily with the two couples practically in marital bliss. The additional members of the cast were Dr. Blicker (Stephen Bush), Watkins (Martin O’Connell), Judge Hope (Wallace Gregerson), colored maid (June Porter), reporter (Donna Foss), Miss Ransome (Dorothy Olson), girl (Leona Dahlke) and colored musician (Ward Stevenson). The play was under the direction of Mrs. Frances Rolle, the dramatic coach. COMMENCEMENT Our class of 1947 put in its final appear- ance as seniors at the sixty-sixth annual com- mencement on Thursday evening, May 22, at eight o’clock. The traditional march, “Pomp and Circumstance,” filled the auditorium as the 57 seniors capped and gowned in blue ad- vanced slowly two by two down the aisle. “Educational Preparation for Life” was the theme of this program. After the presi- dent of the graduating class, John Gilbertson, had given his address, six seniors gave discus- sions explaining how our high school extra curricular activites have helped prepare us for future citizenship and enriched our under- standing and enjoyment of life. Doris Bogut discussed the benefits derived from our high school speech work; Warren Otterson. music; Helen Harrison and Gerard McMahon, physical education; Barbara Zezza, commercial courses; and Virgil Worrell, Junior Red Cross activi- ties. The musical portion of the exercises was provided by a number of our talented seniors. A piano solo “Polonaise” by Edward MacDow- ell was played by Barbara Zezza, and a vocal solo “Let My Song Fill Your Heart” was sung by Rita McMahon. The senior boys’ sextet and the Mixed Chorus also sang several num- bers. The senior class officers planned the com- mencement program. The baccalaureate service was held on Sunday, May 18, and was conducted by the Reverend Oscar Thompson of the Bethel Luth- eran Church. 32
