23 Class fplagf G Winnie and the Wise Young Man was the play chosen by the Class of '28. May 18 was the fateful night, but all went well, it being dramatically and financially a success. The characters spent but two weeks practising it and they feel that the success was mostly due to the tireless efforts of the coach, Miss Juanita Hamilton. Evelyn Gastman was delightful as leading lady, taking the part of Winnie very well. Miles Post as Terry Fales, alias The Wise Young Man, played opposite her when Lloyd Mallet as Bertie Treewood wasn't around. Both drew many laughs from the crowd, portraying their characters amazingly well. May Drake cleverly playing the part of Angela, the angel child, soon converted her attentions from Terry to Bertie who soon succumbed to her Winsome ways. Edith Jacobs portrayed Mrs. Barrington J. Beach, Angela's mother, to a fare-thee-well. Marjorie Coventon as Sally Sherman, Winnie's best friend, pleased everyone with her excellent characterization of a young college girl. Ethel Lusk 'did the part of Mrs, Lucille Fowler fTerry's sisterl very nicely. Martha Harrison and James Taylor as Miss Dora and Mr. Joseph Thayne faunt and father of Winsome Winnieb went over big, playing their respective parts with much grace. Stage hands, managers, etc., who deserve honorable mention are Mr. Fraser, Miss Dean, Helen Sharkey, Viola Hunt, Russell Erickson, Dennis Sawby, Tony Cox, Myrtle Gies, Marion Twaddle and many others, without whom the play would not have been so successful.

22 Senior Class Propheey-- - Continued Behold-here's a good one-listen closely, lend me your ears- A yellow cab draws up to a trim little bungalow, and out of it climbs Bun Lewis, who is rather stout, but as good looking as ever. He is greet- ed by a slim, dark-haired little wife, whom he clasps tightly in an em- brace, and they enter the house-that's that-How's that for a future, Bun?

She expects soon to scale the Eifel Tower-not so bad for Rose-Wonder what she gets out of it besides excitement? Say, this is something I never expected--I always thought the best of thoughts about this young man. Listen-an enormous mansion is in the foreground, and a masked man is seen climbing down the hop vines which cover nearly the whole side of the building. He drops noiselessly to the ground and makes a quick getaway with his loot. He is followed and when he removes his mask, behold-it is the once meek and darling young man of Roosevelt High-Melvin Kobel. Emily Parsons is an evangelist at Agnew now. Alas and alack, listen to this-Francis Eacrett, Principal at Sequim, discovered too late that he had married Edith instead of Lallo .
