Tattletale’’ Causes An Uproar In Fairview And The The atmosphere grows tense as Paul Cummings (Jim Beehler) finds out from Isabelle Blaine (Judie Huston) exactly what she thinks of the way he had humiliated her family. ‘Here's what I think of you Paul Cum- mings.'’ With that we are off with the Blaine family and their daughter Patty, on a wild ad- venture that put the town of Fairview in an up- roar. On April 13 and 14 after many weeks of rehearsal the Junior Class of 1962 were ready to present the comedy TATTLETALE under the direction of their sponsor, Mr. N. Bridges. Jane Whitehead, as Patty Blaine, and Bob Troxel, as Tod Jennings, at the top of the list, led the cast in the three act play with the best amateur skill they had. As one of the smallest Junior classes at Madison Township High School, every mem- ber of the class had the opportunity to try out and to participate in the play.

Boys Invade A Slumber Party In ‘No Boys Allowed” Fred (Gary Oswalt) and LeRoy (Jim Beehler) were caught in the act of stealing the sandwiches so Vic- trola (Irene Walters), Patsy (Charlene Van De Keere), and Jane (Jane Whitehead) keep guard. “Only four weeks away and we don't even have our books.’ This was the dilemma of the seniors this year as the class play time rolled around. The books arrived with three weeks to go and finally parts were assigned. Then on October 19 and 20, the fast-moving comedy was presented under the direction of Mr. William Phillips. The kitchen was haunted according to Victrola and the girls were being kidnapped by Mr. Midnight. At the exact moment came Keith, Harvey, Fred, and LeRoy to rescue the girls from trouble at the slumber party. The play proved to be two very entertaining eve- nings for both audience and cast.
