Little CEdward Lyon and Sharon NielsenJ,a.re the victims of this deplorable situation. However, :Ln the end it aJ.l straightens out, and everyone is greatly relieved. The cast was ably supported by Nancy Dudley, Constance Haas, Evelyn Bauer, Lois Baumgartner, Eugene Sprague, Pat- ricia Riedy, and Beverly Brunnnel. 'JANUARY THAWW Senior Class Play On the eighteenth of April... in 'MT the senior class presented the first of two successful performances of the three-act comedy, January Thaw. Herbert Gage, a New York author Clioward Ellisj, and his family have just finished remodeling an old Connecticut farm house, when Jonathan and Matilda Rockwood William Kupke and Ma.ryAnn Krueger! return and place their claim on the property. Because of an overlooked clause in the deed the Rockwoods retain the right to live in the house until the end of their days.The Gages urldllingly submit and with the differences of opinion involving politics and modern conveniences, the two families settle down to a. miniature civil Faro The tension is not relieved when the eldest Gage daugh- ter,Barbara CElea.nor Foucekl, mysteriously disappears with the Rockwood's son,Ma.tt fEdward Knickerbockerl. To add to the misery, a typical New England blizzard cuts the house- hold off from all outside communication. With a case of olives, a package of cornflakes, and a jug of molasses, the Gages prepare to weather the storm. Meanwhile, the Rockwoods are using to good advantage the harvest of their summer garden. One by one the hungry members of the Gage family desert Herbert for the wa.rm,homey room of the Rockwoodsh Finally Herbert, too, succumbs and joins the rest of his family. When Matt and Barbara return and are not mar- ried, the two families become reconciled. Rita Fredenhagen played Marge Gage,Jean Wehrli and Norma Heather were the Gage daughters. George Husted was played by Kenneth Shif- flerg Frieda., by Gwendolyn Foremang Mr. Loomis,by Jack Scrogginsg Uncle Walter, by Joseph Mazzag Carson, by James Shimkus.

Kuhn,Baumga.rtner, and Vermaat as well as baclcfieldmen Parcells, Falkenstein VARSITY FOOTBALL Our Redskins ,strengthened by the return of seven lettermen,found the com- petition in the Little Seven much to their liking this year. Their record of seven wins, one loss, and one tie enabled them to attain second place in the conference and also includes overwhelming victories over East Aurora and Marmion. The team's only loss was at the hands of Geneva onrlovember 2, and the tie was a 13-13 affair with Dundee. Coach Harshbarger had the boys in top form,and his retirement before the Geneva game dealt the team a crip- pling blow. Special recognition was given to four players on this year's squad by their election to the All-Conference team. Those four were center, Cecil Brown, half back,Chuck Steck, end John Zolvinski and tackle c ,, Q s Lalvrvy- Gregory. Rounding out the first squad ,were linemen Rieser, Bentz, Ilichtl, 3 Heun, Wehrli, and Eby.
