A packed house in attendance and many laughs on both nights were reward enough for the many nights spent after school rehersing for the final production. The plot involves a moving story that is rich in humor and guaranteed laughs. The Lindsay family who have a farm, a truck and a hired hand are considered rich0 hillbillies in the Ozarks. Ma Lindsay thinks very highly of herself and having two years of schooling, considers herself educated. She forces her tyranny on the family with Dee Dee, an orphan girl, as her special target. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon, touring from the North, have an accident and while delayed, visit the Lindsays for dinner. Dee Dee tells them of her dreams of an education and they become interested in her, thinking her ill-suited for hillbilly life. The Gordons convince the Lindsays to let them take Dee Dee home with them. Having lost their own daughter while on a train trip, the Gordons want to educate Dee Dee and bring her up as their own daughter. Ma Lindsay has no special affection for the orphan girl and consents. She is more concerned for her own daughter, Catalpa, who turns out to be quite a character! John Gordon (Dick Blohm) congratulates Mr. McKay for his fine Mrs. Gordon (Patty Larson) beams her appreciation.
