Af 'YW f?fX5 , 13 , Senior Play The Man On the Box On Friday night, May the sixth, the Senior Play The Man on the Box was given. The play coached by the senior patron and patronesses assisted by Miss Johnson, exceeded all expectations. The story of the play concerns the affairs of Robert Worburton who means to play a joke on his sister by taking the place of her coachman and kissing her as she gets out of her carriage. By mistake he gets in the wrong box and kisses the wrong girl. Wor- burton under the alias of James Osborne is arrested and taken to jail for reckless driving and misconduct. The young lady whom he kisses, namely Betty Annesley, bails him out and hires him as head of her stables. Betty is sure he belongs to one of the best fam- ilies of Washington and in many amusing ways tries in vain to make him admit it. Worburton discovers and thwarts the plans of Count Karloff, a Russian spy who is buying from Betty's father the plans of the coastal fortifications, thus making Colonel Annesley a traitor. Worburton stops Betty from marrying Karloff to save her father and in the end wins Betty's love for himself. Robert Worburton ................

M iss johnson Senior Prom Like all the activities launched by the Class of '27, the first annual Senior Prom was a great success. The gymnasium was transformed into a fairy-land. Vari-colored stream- ers were arranged in a tent-like canopy from the center sky-light to the side walls, thus covering nearly all of the bare brick and plaster of the room. Some lights above the canopy together with the amber lights around the sides gave a softened effect. The music furnished by jean Goldkette's Nightingales was splendid and every dance found nearly every couple on the floor. The grand march was led by Terrence Hickey, our class president, and his guest, Ruth Allison. 'The Prom continued from 9:00 to 1:00 o'clock and most of the dancers remained until the end. Delicious punch and wafers were served during the intermission. The chaperones included our class patrons, Miss Schmid, Miss Giles, and Mr. Lind- quist. Others were Miss Allen, Mr. Smith, Mrs. Lee, Mrs. Allison and Mrs. Van Aken. -Josephine Schmidt. 17
