Senior Class Play The Seniors of ’68 put on the comedy “Blithe Spirit,” directed by Mr. Hendershot, as their class play. The plot concerned an exciting confusion created between the husband’s first wife, who came back as a ghost, and his second wife, who had a seance held to rid her husband of his halucinations. The tremendous play was well worth all the hard work and time the cast spent practicing for it. Congratulations to the director and cast for a fine performance. Sealed: Tony Lewis, Diane Johnson. Standing: Bill Lee, Cathy Smith, Hope Ostendorf, Pam Allen, Billie Jo l.achen-meyer. 24
