The plot revolves around Buddy Carhart and his two henchmen, Paul and Shrimpie. Together they have launched a magazine, The Harrisville Town Topics , thanks to the generosity of Mr. Garhart, who furnished the hand press. The boys are, naturally, confirmed women haters: that is, until Buddy's older sister Florence is visited for the summer by her school chum, Joan and Joan's younger sister, Lillums. Lillums is a sixteen-year-old siren and quickly severs the ties binding the three boys. Expertly she plays one boy against the other until havoc results. Meantime, Mr. Carhart, a trusted employee of the town's bank, becomes involved in a serious shortage. Buddy takes it upon himself to track down the real culprit, which he finally succeeds in doing after many misadventures. ln the end The Harrisville Town Topics scores a tremendous scoop and the three boys again unite against fickle womanhood. The cast, under the able direction of Miss Stuart, put on a fine perform- ance for a very appreciative audience. -ROSEMARY GISLER ninety-six
