Nineteen Thirty-three JUNIOR PLAY The junior class presented a one-act play and a short sketch at the Grange Hall, May 19th. The play A'Keeping Kitty's Dates is based on the irresponsibility of Kitty CBeulah Delaryl who tinds herself on the day of a house party with two men. tHer three friends, Mina CMarion Stonej, Flo CAgnes Demasib, and Evelyn CClara Slackl swear never again to take an extra date off her hands but each one relents and unknown to the others, goes down to entertain a man whom she takes to be the real extra date. Kitty finally breaks with the first extra just in time to keep the real date, Cjohn Sawyerl from becoming entangled with the girls. The girls' motto is L'VVhat you don't know. Kenneth Kidd and Leroy Christmas took the parts of the extra dates and Lucille Howd the part of the maid. The sketch A Pair of Lunatics gives the amusing encounter between two sane people CFlorence Perra and Gerald Beaudettej who have met between dan- ces at a hospital for the insane. Each takes the other for an in mate and humors him along. A letter solves the problem for the couple. Between sketches: A Alice Lansell-Accordian. Leroy Christmas-Guitar and Songs. Ruth Caswell-Song. A dance was held after the entertainment.

The Rambler and Mr. Hartford. Allan Sherman was elected President: john Sawyer, Vice- V President: and Alice Lansell, Secretary and Treasurer. The purpose of this Council is to represent the school bcdy as a whole and thus 'help the faculty to exercise discipline. The Councilselects the mar- shals and gives its. opinion on minor disciplinary questions. Since the first Student Council at N. H. has been such a success. and those following will undoubtedly improve a great deal, it is believed that the Council is an established honorary organization in the High School.
