ZIEhe Janusz ext nur O THRILL of school life compares with that of being a Senior and a member of the cast which produces the Senior play. For beauty, - ability, and good humor, the cast for HThe House Next Door was unexcelled. Didn't the members come from the best class in school. and haven't they always proved equal to any occasion? When Genevieve Phelps, as Esther Jacobson. sat on the davcnport and listened to the love tales of Cecil Cotswold CDavid Swansonj did any one in the audience doubt that either she or David had ability-at least along certain lines? Ivan Houser in portraying the character of Sir John Cotswold, displayed a versatility which is seldom shown by a high school actor. Mary Douglass Chisholm, in the part of Lady Margaret, acted as his very charming wife. Their daughter, Peggy, was the character impersonated in such a pleasing manner by Alberta McMonies. She won the hearts of her audience as well as that of Adrian Jacobson, the young scholar-athlete. John Henderson was the one who took this part in a manner entirely satisfactory to his audience. The dignity of the Seniors was upheld by Gilbert Struve who impressed the spectators with his able presentation ot the character, Sir Isaac Jacobson, whom Sir John so bitterly hated. In maintaining the Jacobson dignity, Sir lsaac was ably assisted by his lovely wife, Lady Rebecca., portrayed by Blossom Wilsoii. There are two members of whom the Seniors are especially proud and to whom they owe much of their fame. One is the HHandsome Goedeckef' who, as Captain Trevor, caused a flutter of excitement to pass over the audience at the beginning ot Act H. The other celebrated Senior is John Simpson, who is noted for his good humor and his ability to Hbe in the right place at the right timef' Did anyone hear anything but praise for the way in which he presented the part of Lewis, the dapper musical agent? Last, but not least, in contributing to the success of The House Next Door,', were the two butlers: Vining, played by Sam Oliver, and Maxmil- lian, by Perry Davis. Everyone agrees that the play would not have been complete without the splendid acting of these personifications of dignity. HThe House Next Door was a decided financial success for which the Seniors give due credit to Donald VVo0dworth, their business manager, MHon- orable mention must also be given to Ben Smith who acted as property manager and proved himself a valuable and indispensable member of the class. Although not a member of the class ot ,21, Ellis Simpson could easily have been taken for one, for he worked untiringly in producing lighting ef- fects which were the admiration of everyone. The only regret which the Seniors had was that the 14th and 15th of January marked the end -of good times in H'l'he House Next Door, and the general sigh which was heard as the last curtain fell was, L'Oh, l wish we might have another play.
