14 Tur WHIRLPOOL SENIOR ACTIVITIES The class of '41 returned to Pennell this fall with a population of 21 enthusiastic seniors. We elected Jane Eaton and Donald B. Hall to represent us in the Student Council. For class officers we elected the following: Neal Merrill, President; Catherine MacDonald, Vice-President ; Berenice Edwards, secretary; and Donald Е. Hall, Treasurer. In extra curricular activities we have been prominent. Six senior boys played on the basketball team. Five senior girls went out for basketball, and three of our girls made up a badminton team which played at Portland High School. To earn money for our class trip to Washington we have had food sales, bridge parties, a social, suppers, a Senior Fair, a rum- mage sale and a class play. This vear the seniors have had a chance to do practice work in various local businesses. The girls have had experience as maids, telephone operators, librarians, and apprentices in teaching physical education. The boys have had filling station experience, office work, and training in teaching physical education. We have appre- ciated and enjoyed this chance, and we hope that the next year's seniors will make use of and enlarge this opportunity. We are sad at the thought of leaving Pennell, but we are con- fident that we have received excellent preparation with which to adventure out into the world, whether we are seeking a job or higher education. JANE EATON, '41

Tue WHIRLPOOL 15 SENIOR PLAY Professor, How Could You?” On March 27th and 28th the seniors presented the play, “Рго- fessor, How Could You? , a three act comedy. The cast was as follows: Professor Keats Perry (a young professor) ..... Henderson Beal Vicky Randolph (his pet hate) s Jane Eaton John Appleby (back-slapping friend of the professor) James Johnson Priscilla Morley (his cute little secretary) .. Catherine MacDonald Grandpa Perry (a not-so innocent bystander) ....... Vernon Pollard Grandma Perry (an obliging soul) „ааа Thurza Sawyer Tootsie Bean ( a gushing girl) sss Esther Libby Butcher Boy (Tootsie’s two-fisted brother) ......... Donald Е. Hail Valerie Whitman (southern applesauce) ................. Helen Russell Boggins (the sporting butler) „rris Neal Merrill oe qoM виорот ни Henry and Dorothy Beck Professor, How Could You? is about a young professor who knows everything about history and nothing about women. The professor wants to become dean, but he has to have a wife to do it. He asks John to find a girl for him. Meanwhile Vicky. who has come to the professor's house to apologize for throwing a bottle of ink at him, and has overheard everything decides that she would like to help. John, Vicky, and Boggins each choose a candidate and put ten dollars in a Jar as a bet. Grandma is asked to give a dinner party for the three girls. Grandpa, on the sly, puts in his money on another girl. Things are very complicated after Grandpa calls up Valerie, Tootsie, and Priscilla and tells them that Keats wants to elope with them. The play reaches a hilarious climax when John comes in dressed as a woman and bringing two children. He pretends to be Keats’ wife. After John makes himself known, the professor is free to marry the girl he really loves. Grandpa wins the money for betting оп Vicky, and everyone is happy. The cast played its parts very well. Much gratitude is due Mr. Richards who did an excellent job of coaching. The cast is also very grateful to the other teachers, who helped in every possible way to make this play a success.
