Adlcman All Schnnl Play EVER SINCE EVE The curtain was drawn, Nlarch 30, to reveal a newly constructed office of a high school newspaper, The Penguin. The plot evolves around the typical example of an editor of such a paper. l-le and the rest of the masculine staff are oblivious to the whims of the weaker sex, but not to those of a Southern Belle who is a new arrival at their school. However, as the story deepens and the difficulties expand, the fair femmes are found to be the most reliable. Outside of an epidemic of measles, and illegally operated pin-ball ma- chines, everything turned out to the best advantage of everyone concerned. Between the second and third acts, flowers were presented by the cast to the director, Miss Thompson. Nine Girls Loft ISU fjigqitz R. VVainer. G. Murphy. M. Maxtcd, M. Hartquist, Gzlddis, E.

Thespian Play PAPA IS ALL The play, chosen by Miss Scheilke, the director and troupe sponsor, was one of tre- mendous originality. It was of a type which had never been presented on our stage before, and we must give credit to the cast for the fine job they did with it. There were only six characters in the entire play, thus giving major roles to every member, which they portray- ed with perfection. The play was written entirely in Pennsylvania Dutch dialect. lt was the story of a family which was ruled by the iron-hand of Papa . Kept from modern in- ventions and their own personal freedom, they grew rebellious. Papa is accidently killed . but in the third act mysteriously returns to the dismay of all. The Hpoleece-man , comes to the rescue of the family and takes Papa oil' to jail, so all is well with the Aukamps . Eeninr Class Play 'ANINE GIRLS After weeks of screaching their lungs out, hitting each other with stove-pokers, and opening closet doors concealing dead bodies, the all-girl cast was finally ready. due to the coaching of their director, Miss Thompson, to give their final production of a blood-curdl- ing drama, Nine Girls . The cast was a most unusual one, but one of extreme ability. The story centered around a girl of an unfortunate background and who had been taken camping with some of her sorority sisters of considerable wealth. Murder stalks the cabin and the climax was one very surprising to an audience of nearly 700 people. The cast of characters for Nine Girls is pictured on the next page. Page Twenty-six

S hirley Maxted The song birds of New London High School have practiced diligently and strenuously under the guidance of Miss Dorthy Edkins. While the soloists worried over their tone quality and pitch, the rest of the chorus practiced their harmonious chords until the thirty- seven voices blended as one. An outstanding event in the years activities was the presenta- tion of the Christmas Concert which was held December 14. At the beginning of the second semester the Girls' Glee Club was organized to carry the work begun by the Mixed Chorus to a successful close. Ifiirls' Elec liluh H. Freeman. Midcilt' Row: Y.
