he--P. C. H. SENIOR PLAY Wednesday evening at 7:30, April 15, 1936, in the Grant Theater, the curtain raised on an office scene with a lounger nonchalantly whistling. Thus began Nothing but the Truthf' the play presented by the senior class of 1935-6. A young man bet 310,000 of his sweetheart's money that he could tell the truth for twenty-four hours. His sweetheart was trying to raise 510,000 more money and she gave him the money for safe keeping. Bob Bennett, the young man, finally decided that the truth was too hot for him and wound up with a mouthful of lies after he had won the bet.
