junior class play OFF THE TRACK This was a play with a different twist. lt takes place in the waiting room of a small wayside railroad station on a dark and stormy night. A strange and conglomerate mixture of people is thrown together when a fast train is derailed, and the passengers come inside to wait for a relief train. Among them are four peppy and attractive college girls on their way back to schoolg a young man studying law: an Italian woman and her childreng haughty Mrs. Vanderventerg an en- gaged couple: and old Silas Dobbins, the station attendant who is the best comedy part. lNhen Mrs. Vanderventer loses her expensive pearls. the nosy old maid, llliss l'idgie Mcllougal. linds them in the lunch basket of Mrs. Ciuarino. the ltalian woman. The young lawyer proves her innocence in a preliminary trial, and reveals the guilty party. The play was presented on the evening of November 10, 1949. The class was particularly pleased that a record crowd came to see it. Mrs. Fritz directed the play, with Dorothy Webb assisting. Joyce Brown and Bruce Blomquist furnished entertainment between the acts.
