E l0R PLAY JFK fi' Take Your Medicine is a story of an un-typical private hospital. Two old grumpy patients, Mr. Dodson and Mr. Puckett, turned the hospital into an uproar. When Mr. Dodson's niece, Angela introduced Dr. Jackson, Mr. Dodson mis- takenly thought he was medical doctor instead of a doctor of Education. Suddenly Miss Holt decided that desperately sick Mr. Dodson needed an oxygen tent to save his life. With a lot of struggling they finally got the tent over Dodson's head. Later, accidentally they found out that Mr. Dodson didn't even have a fever. They blamed the mistaken nurse, but she didn't do it. The guilty one was Mr. Puckett who was always happy, that is, until his domineering sister Cordelia came to scold him and take him home. Then he started groaning some- thing awful. He really was sick. After a blood test, the verdict was appendicitis. The third act opens with Mr. Puckett sneaking back into the hospital room after hiding from the doctors and nurses. Everyone was looking for him so he crawled under Dodson's bed. Later after he was better he promptly got into his own bed, and fell out and broke his back. The final scene ends with Mr. Dodson giving Angel and Bill 350,000 for a wedding present. PLAY CAST Mr. Dodson, , , , , grumpy patient .....
