'Tl E121 :Phe 1f9'52q pwxf-5.31211 2.13 Drumutics SWEETHEART TOWN - Sweetheart Town , under the direction of Miss Peggy Swanson, rep- resenting the Frederick B. Ingram Productions and sponsored by the Parent- Tegchers Association was presented at the Palace Theatre on February 25 an 26. The opening number of the show was an attractive scene The Wed- ding of lack and Iill in which a hundred children took part. Lois Hill and Bobby Lindholme were charming as the bride and groom. The big attraction of the evening was the play Sweetheart Town in which Marjorie Trumbull was excellent as Mary Parks, who is in love with Ioe Brooks, the man who goes to New York to make good and much to the surprise of everyone he succeeds. Edwin Robinson played this part well. Maurice Nelson, as Martin Pierce, the young New Yorker, was convincing in his love making to the charming Peggy Biglow, capably enacted by Mrs. Lester I. Ordiway. Dr. L. R. Cupp gave a humorous characterization of Ezra Parks, and Virginia Challstrom was amusing as his wife, Bedelia. Audrey Grdiway, as Mazie Woods, manages to vamp Squire Biglow, forcefully por- trayed by Ray Ewing. Adelbert Anderson as the mysterious Prof. Light- head, sent shivers up our spines, and Ardis Lantz supplied a touch of comedy as Tillie Biglow, Howard Oberg was good as Almos Black and Mildred Swanson was realistic in the role of Kaba. The play had for its background a chorus comprised of thirty high school irls. 9 Mrs. L. R. Cupp, pianist, Allen Phillips, violinist, and Norman Ross, trap drummer, furnished the musical accompaniment. It is to be noticed that Virginia Challstrom and Audrey Ordiway, both members of the Senior class, and Mrs. Lester Ordiway, teacher of languages, had prominent places in the cast among the other local people. -1.

The plot centers around Sally Sims, an attractive co-ed from the little village of Mountain Hill. Her expenses at Blake University are being paid by an unknown party. Hobo, twho hoboes it all over the country just for a thrill--a ne'er-dofwell until Sally's desire to attend college inspires him to take an interest in bigger things in lifej is the Hero of the play. Sally is in the midst of her college career, and is happy for the first time in her life, when she is accused of having stolen the money from a church benefit, for her college education. The evidence is so strong that she is asked to leave college on the eve of an important football game, in which Hobo is to be the star. There is much excitement when Hobo walks boldly to the front and calmly says, I stole the money. He leaves college in disgrace. Sally later learns that Hobo has been paying her way through school out of his allowance. In order to clear him of the theft she confesses. Hobo then turns detective and finds the real thief, who happens to be Iohnnie Iohnson, Cousin Susie's heart's desire. Sally and Hobo are both reinstated in Blake University and all ends happily. The Seniors worked out an entirely new idea this year in giving the four act comedy The College Hobo with the entire class taking part. The play was presented in the High School Gymnasium, May 5 and 6. Sify' Thirty Four S' K . f -. ':14'ff7.. MK,,,fiLff:1g:, ,N Pg- . X -at -- iz-AZ' ,J Y egg-ff ,VW if N 3,7 f 4
