James Cronan, Lawyer Witnesses: Patricia Darling Winifred Kerouack Irene Logie Katherine Lovett Patricia McGarry 45 CLASS GIFTS Scene: Corner of Main and Front Streets. Time: June, T953 Uean and Harry enter from the opposite wings. They walk hurriedly to the center of the stage, where there is a street corner sign, Main and Front. They begin to talk ex- citedly.l Jean: Hi, Harry, have you purchased any gifts yet? Harry: No, have you? Jean: No. If only the last two shipments of gifts hadn't been lost, we would be all right now. fPat enters from back center.I Harry: Oh, there you are, Pat. Have you found any more gifts yet? Pat: No, I can't find any. I've been all over town, and I can't find any store that can supply us with what we want on such short notice. Jean: I just told Harry we would be all set if we had received the gifts we ordered last April. Harry: Sure, or even if we had received the gifts we bought in May. James: Hello, everyone. How are you getting along with the gifts? Pat: Terrible. Jean: No luck at all. Harry: Not I either. James: We have all the bad luck. That shipment of gifts we imported from England would have been the talk of the school for many years. Barbara: Sure, but what happened? A storm blew up over the Atlantic, and the ship that was bringing the gifts over sank! Pat: At least we collected the insurance on them. Harry: So, what happened? We bought new gifts from Maxies of Hollywoodl We thought if we had them shipped by express, they would arrive safely. Jim. That was a good idea, but it back-fired, too. The express train was robbed before it arrived in Putnam. Barbara: The F.B.I. hasn't found the robbers yet, but they think it was the same gang that specialized in holding up Brinks! Jean: A lot of good that does us. We collected insurance again, but we still don't have the gifts. CPauI walks in from the left front. He carries a suitcase and walks slowly and nonchalant- ly towards the right rear exit.J Pat: Where, oh where, are we going to buy the gifts on such little notice? Harry. I have the money right here. We can afford to pay a little extra if we can find someone who can promise prompt delivery. fHarry pulls out a stack of money and flaps the ends. When Paul hears this, he whirls around and listens to the rest of the conversation.I Barbara: We had better get something done in a hurry. The senior class is gathering down in Union Square to wait for their gifts. Pat: Someone had better go down there right now. Barbara, why don't you go down to try to convince them to be patient. Barbara leaves. Pat: Good luck!!! Paul: All right folks, I'll tell you what l'm going to do. You want gifts: I have gifts. Through the courtesy and compliments of the Pomfret General Store, I have to offer for the first time, the greatest assortment of plain and fancy gifts ever gathered together in one spot. You want cars? I have cars, beautiful, imported, custom built low-slung, European designed cars. You want athletic goods? Well, I have a gi- aantic supply of goods from the famous S-M Athletic Department of the West Thompson General Store, an affiliate of my own store. You want office supplies? I have them. I have just returned from the famous Charlie's Office Supply Com- pany of Dayville Heights, where I have purchased numerous articles which are considered to be durable, but due to circumstances beyond my control, they are not guaranteed. You want books? I have a wide selection of novels, fiction, and famous quotes from the Semi-Colon Bookshop, which is located on Grave Street Extension. Everyone turns away and starts to leave. Harry is still flipping the money as he walks by Paul. Paul grabs the money with one hand and Harry with the other hand: he quickly places the money in his coat pocket. Paul: Just a minute, Buster. Don't leave while I'm talking. I was just about to mention our special bargain prices. I like your looks. Tell you what I'm going to do. For the modest sum you just gave me you can have any and all the gifts I have previously mentioned: iust line up over here. Take your note books and iot down the names and articles: I'II tell you what I'm going to do. tHe sets up his suit case on a stand: People pull out their note books.J Paul: I have to offer a few kitchen supplies which I have acquired from the famous Kitchen Supply Company on East South Main Street. Do I hear a bid on this set of splendid towels? Pat: l'Il take those for Judy Green to put in her hope chest for future use. Paul: A beautiful red apron. Jim: Ruth Saba is the best kitchen worker P.H.S. has ever seen. An apron would be iust the thing to keep her clean and neat. Paul: A broom. I'Il take that for Russell Dagnall, so he may continue his part time iob while in college. Paul: A iar of Ever Shine polish. Jean: Could you shine a ring with it? Paul: That's what it is noted for. Jean: Then I'II take that for Louise Rundell, so she can keep her K.H.S. ring shiny while she waits for the next. Paul: Moving over to the automotive department, I have a varied assortment of stream- lined and custom built automobiles and a selection of auto supplies. I have three new blue sedans, a flashy red convertible, and also an old but dependable used car. Jim: I'II take one of those blue sedans for Romeo Randolph, so that he can have trans- portation to see his girl. Harry: I'II take one for George Roberts, so that he won't have to bum rides any more. Pat: I'II take the convertible for Rene St. Onge because he loves to ride to Hartford in his convertible, but the roof leaks. This new one will keep him dry and comfortable. Jim: I'Il take another one of those sedans for Winifred Kerouak, so she can get from Pomfret to Putnam with more ease. Jean: Well, I guess I'II have to settle for the used car for Harry Tobler, but since he has had so many cars, I don't mind seeing him with another old one. Paul: Now that the automobiles have been taken care of, we'II go to the auto supplies. Do I have a bid for a wrench? Jean: I'lI take that for Edgar Belleville, so that he can extend his mechanical ability in the future. Paul: How about this Forever Keeps Your Car Shiny, chamois? Pat: Oh! I'lI take that for Francis Scott, so that he can forever keep his Mercury as shiny as it is now. Paul: Do I have a bid for a tool box and a map of Massachusetts? Harry: l'II take the tool box for Paul Bourgeois, so that he can always keep his hot rod running. And I'II take the map for Loring White, because he is forever spending his weekends traveling to Massachusetts, and I think this little gift will keep him from getting lost. Paul: I also have two permits - one is for Parking, and the other is a chauffeur's permit. Jean: If that parking permit is good for Farrows Street, I'Il take it for Bob Davis. Paul: It sure is. Harry: I'II take that chauffer's permit for Carol Lowe, so that she can drive her friends around. Paul: How about some nice polish? Pat: I'lI buy that for Gladys Green to polish the saddle of her riding horse. Paul: Jumping from ground transportation to air, I have a Sabre iet and a beautiful DC 4. Pat: I'II take the iet for Gerald Bachand, so that he can increase his speed on his trips to Fall River, Massachusetts. Harry: I'lI take the DC 4 for Barbara Normandin. Next year she can have something to transport her letters from Teachers' College to a certain someone. Paul: Well, we are back on the ground again, and I'lI tell you what I'm going to do. I have two cans of paint and a box of water colors. Well, do I have a bid for the paint? James: I'II take a can for Raymond Bonneville, so that he can continue his sign painting business in the future. Pat: I'll take the other can for Carol O'Brien, so that she can keep her father's fenders shiny after her old boy friends pass by. Paul: Well, how about this box of water colors? James: I'll take that for Merrill Goodenough. She can use them in completing a master-- piece she has recently started. Paul: Realizing that books are the key to intelligence, I make it my business to always have an abundance on hand. And please for the books' sake do not iudge these fine masterpieces by my intelligence. Jean: I'll take this for Jacqueline Breault, so that she will continue to bex as gay out of school as she was in school. Paul: A large 500 page note book. Pat: I'll take that for John Alvord. This will keep him from getting business assignments mixed up. Paul: A Forever Keep You Eating cook book. Harry: I'll take that for Barbara Keach, so that she can broaden her cooking knowledge. Paul: Here is a 250 page book which is entitled We Have An Answer to Any Love Problem You May Have. Jean: Oh! Let's get that for Louis Rovero. Now he can have a guide for his future love problems. Paul: A book of tickets which is good in any picture house that bears the name Theater. Pat: We'll take those for Katherine Lovett, because we wouldn't want her to be embar- rassed when she sells all the tickets down at the Bradley Thater. An extra book will be of help. Paul: Here is a Navy Manual that contains all the new ordinances. James: Let's get that for Alan Noon. With this new information he should be able to stay out of the brig. Paul: And last, but not least, a book on famous quotes. l believe it says compiled by the English Department, Putnam High School. Harry: I think Ralph Laime should have this book because it will come in handy someday when he becomes an announcer at Putnam's radio station. Paul: Now we'll move into the music department. The first item is a baton. James: Let's get that for James Cronan, because he could use one when he conducts his symphony orchestra. Paul: How about a music sheet? Pat: We'll take that for Virginia Bernier, so that she can always have an extra composi- tion on hand after she becomes a great pianist. Paul: Do you want this song sheet? lt's called Longing for You. Harry: I'll take that for Shirley Pope, so that she can continue to serenade Dave as she has in the past. Paul: Moving over to the athletic department,l have a professional basketball and foot- ball with the famous initials S. M. on them. I also have a pair of roller skates and a bowling pin. Jim: We'll take the football for Richard Gainer. After he turns Pro he can use it for practice. Jean: I'll take the basketball for Patricia Darling, so she can practice and someday become a great star. Pat: Let's get the roller skates for Gertrude Gradie. She will be able to put them to good use in her nursing career. Harry: Let's get the bowling pin for Raymond Levesque. It will come in handy when he opens his own bowling alley. Paul: Now, we'll move over to our fine selection of office supplies. Here is a box of personalized stationery. Pat: Let's give that to Jean Brearley. She writes to her sailor so often she is always: running out. Paul: Here is a brand new l953 super deluxe model Underwood typewriter. Jean: I'll take that for Patricia Stocks. She can use it to keep in practice. That way she will never lose her terrific speed. Paul: This package contains a gross of Eversharp pencils. i Jim: Because Thomas Mooney loses so many pencils, l'm sure he would appreciate this new supply. Paul: This a bottle of black ink that was brewed by the Chemistry class. 48 Pat: I think Mabel Whittemore should get that. She is such a capable bookkeeper that I know she will want to keep all her books in the black. Paul: Do you think you can use this super deluxe typewriter eraser? Harry: Sure, we'Il give that to Norma Bourgeois to assist her in doing her future office work. Paul: This is our very best model sewing-kit. Jim: It's no problem to give that away. Everyone knows how skillful Sandra Cutler is with a needle and thread. If she has this kit, she will always be well equipped. Paul: Here is a pair of imported Swedish steel scissors. Jean: Let's give those to Patricia McGarry, so she will be able to keep her hair cut short when she wears her nurse's cap. Paul: Now we'II move into the cosmetics department. The first item I have is a bottle of perfume. Pat: That will have to go to Irene Logie. Don't you know she iust loves to receive per- fume as a gift. Paul: This mascara should be easy to give away. Harry: Let's give that to Jeanne Jarvais. She says she never uses any, but in case she ever wants to start she will have some. Paul: A nylon hairbrush. The very latest. Jean: Oh! That's what we should give to Lorraine Riendeau. It will keep her hair soft and beautiful. Paul: This is a large economy size tube of toothpaste. Harry: That should go to Barbara Rust to keep her pleasant smile bright. Paul: All that's left in this department are two combs. Jim: Elwood Le Fort should certainly receive one of them. It will be iust the thing to keep his locks in place. Harry: l'II take the other one for John Champea. He's the only other boy in the class whom I can think of that can use the comb. Paul: Now, I have two bottles of vitamin pills. Pat: I think we should give one bottle to Carol Weston. They may helplher to gain a little weight. Jim: Richard Valade needs the other bottle to keep the rosy color in his'cheeks. Paul: Here is a guaranteed non-breakable hard glass test tube. Jean: Charles Stoddard will need lots of test tubes when he becomes a great chemist. Let's give him one now as a starter. Paul: How about a roll of color film? Pat: Let's get that for Richard Montigny. He will be able to use it when he becomes a great photographer. Paul: How about a Bell telephone and a five cell flashlight? Jim: Let's get the telephone for Patricia Lucas, so that she can always keep in touch with Donald. Jean: l'II take the flashlight for Muriel Keach, so she can always keep track of a certain usher in the Bradley Theatre. Paul: l'm right down to the bottom of the pile. AII that I have left is a boat and a large size dog biscuit. Harry: A boat will be just the thing for Cynthia Perkins. It will remind her of her interests in the Navy. Jim: Let's give the dog biscuit to Shirley Simonzi for her puppy. Paul: I quess that makes it, folks. Everything is gone. Thanks for your generosity. Maybe I'll be seeing you around again someday. fPaul closes up his suitcase and everyone begins to Ieave.l Jean: Wait a minute. I think we have forgotten someone. Do you have any idea who it might be? Harry: I think we took care of everybody. Pat: I know who it is. We forgot to give James Whittemore a present. Paul: All I have left is this suitcase. Pat: That's iust the present we should give him. He can pack his clothes in it when he goes to college. lEveryone leaves the stage.l Paul Bourgeois Barbara Normandin Jean Brearley Harry Tobler Patricia Lucas James Whittemore 49 Q!
