The Senior Class Presents Out of the Frying Pan George, hurry, get up off the couch. Here comes Dottie's father, Mr. Colburn. He must not see you here. Oh, it's too late. Mrs. Garnet! What a relief. Please, don't mind George, he is just visiting. This would be a typical scene from the senior play this year. It concerned six young people, trying to become actors and actresses, lixdng together in an apartment in all innocence. A prominent producer by the name of Mr. Kinney fJim Sloanj, has just moved in directly below the group. George, Norman, Tony, Kate, Marge, and Dottie, portrayed by Dave Piesen, Gary Hawbeeker, Ralfe Lichty, Joanne Cole, Mary Poffenberger, and Sharon Folk, respectively, plan to stage a murder and find a way to get Mr. Kinney to see it. They are interrupted when Dottie's friend, Muriel, played by Marilyn Fish- er, threatens to tell Dottie's father about their living together. Mrs. Garnet, the landlady QJane Bowersy, thinks that the boys just visit the girls. The murder scene is being acted out when two policemen, Mike Lower and Roger Bremmer, crash into their room, thinking they are a crime ring. At the last, Mr. Colburn Usarry Grovej, discovers the girls' secret, butis un- able to do anything. Dottie falls in love with Norman, Tony and Marge are se- cretly married, and they have all been promised a job with Mr. Kinney. The play cast had a lot of fun portraying the characters and working with their di- rector, Mr. Ebert.

Munro, the viper, has a wife, Ida Rhinegold 1Dia.ne Gearyij, but that does not stop him from pursuing Nellie and tearing her rom the arms of her mother, Widow Lovelace fMarilyn Bergej. Nor does it prevent him from driving Adam to drink, black- mai ing the rich Mrs. Upson Asterbilt fAnn Tallmany, or from be- witching her daughter, Leonie QPaula Lamoreuxy. Other characters are Mookie Maguggins, the hired man QSherman Sarffj, Fleurette, Mrs. Upson Asterbilt's maid 1Pat Grahamj, and Little Nell fDarlene Scha- ferj, who never had a father.
