16 THE CARDINAL - 1932 The Senior Play The play books arrived-the parts were assigned-and then everyone be- gan to speculate on just how the Seniors were going to act up this year. Could anyone have thought of all the things that really happened? Winston Peake as Pa Bence, was certainly extra-special as he stamped around and used such shocking language in his anger. Alberta Anderson as Ma Bencef who walk- ed around with a vague, dumb look-begging father to take his soda, was very cleverly done. So was the role of Kate, portrayed by Virginia Stafford, the be- loved daughter, the heroine, sophisticated, beautiful, spoiled. There was James Gardner as Kempy,,' the plumber, who was some day going to be a great architect and build a church with four steeples and a dome. Mary Gardner had but to act her own delightful self to play the part of Ruth, who believed im- plicitly in Kempy. Then there was Connie Atwood as the independent jane, who just had to find out for herself about everything, and Archie Anderson as Ben, her husband, who was, as he claimed a complete real estate agent. Last but not least Paul Coe as the suave Duke Merrill, the here who arrived at just the right time. The jist of the play is: Kempy was the plumber who came to fix the kit- chen pipe just on the day Kate arrived home from New York with new clothes and high ambitions and just on the day Duke chose to visit the Bences. Kate and Duke, endeavoring to patch up an old quarrel become more irritated at each other. Then, when Kate met Kempy, she ran off and married him to spite Duke. Of course, Kempy would leave the water turned off, so-what with Pa howling for water and Ma fainting when she learned to whom Kate was mar- ried and jane butting her nose in and trying to get to the bottom of everything, and Ruth faithfully defending Kempy all the time-you can imagine just how mixed up things were. Meanwhile, Duke had bought the Bences home from Ben and given it to Kempy, which caused more complications. But everything was unraveled in the end as in most plays. As after most plays, there was a grand party at Coe's. Nor can anyone of the cast forget the dinner before the 8:15 curtain, when lines were furtively reviewed between mouthfuls, and our efficient coach, Mrs. Corrie W. Babcock, being the only calm person at the table. To show their appreciation of her untiring efforts- the Seniors presented Mrs. Babcock with a timely gift and a multitude of prais- es for making the Senior Play of 1932 such a success. ' Afterthoughts: We praise Florence Gron for well-given prologue and Fat Wilson, who was such a businesslike expressman. No one will forget the clev- er costumes each character wore, especially the evening dresses of the girls in the second act, which added color to the stage, and Ma's flannel night gown and curlers, which just about brought down the house. Those who applied the grease paint--namely coach and Bill Ingleson did so as professionals and pa's bald head and wrinkles were a work of art. No wonder our play was such a success! C. A. '32,

Helen Freed, Virginia Stafford Under the guidance of Miss Ruth Cooper, our Senior sponsor, we feel that we have accomplished many things during the year. Both the boys and girls had very successful basketball teams this year- the girls being victors of inter-class and the boys third place. Early in the fall, the class was very ambitious, having a dance to raise money for the play books, and giving a masquerade party for the juniors. Our chapel program was one of the most original of the year. As it came during February and near Lincoln's birthday, we had Reverend Stone of james- town who knew Lincoln, speak. A play, written by four senior girls was given -namely Mary Todd, which characterized her romance with Mr. Lincoln. Then all attention was turned to the senior play. We elected Mrs. Bab- cock as coach and decided on the date of the play-March 17th. Now we are looking forward to graduation ceremonies. The senior year of High School is one of the most interesting years of school, the one most enjoyable, and the most reluctantly left. We leave a sin- cere welcome and our best wishes for the success of those who will enter the Senior class next fall. D.
