The setting of this three-act comedy was an old base- ment apartment in a none too fashionable section of the big cityl'. There was plenty of action, and laughs came fast and furiously, The cast found a very receptive audience and gave it their all. Because the evening audience came without bean- shooters lthe thoughtful audience of the afternoon before had remembered theirsl the cast was per- fectly at ease and there was not one bit of prompt- ing. tThe actors were especially proud of that.J There were many character parts that gave an excellent opportunity for splendid acting, The cast included Nick DeMarco, Barbara Tirsbier, Barbara Bleecker, Pat Benson, Teddy Prochazka, Dick Wahl, Edgar Mueller, Dick Hergert, Dick Gray, Peggy Carney, Bob Davey, Don Ohning, and those love- able Spanish admirals. Miss Geehr was heartily con- gratulated afterwards for turning out such a delightful play.

SENIOR PLAY GN December 4, we presented the eagerly awaited The Man Who Came to Dinner , starring our great actor Nick DeMarco as The Man . ln spite of competition from Joe Louis, we managed to have a good audience present to enjoy this sparkling comedy. New scenery added the finishing touches to the setting which portrayed a small town home in Ohio. The comedy centered around the great Sheridan Whiteside's visit to the Stanley home where, after being injured by a fall, he took complete charge. This play had everything from British actors to axe murderessesg and with such actors as we provided forthe parts, it was a great success, The cast included Barbara Griffith, Marilyn Fuller, Robert Bacastow, Dominick Constantine, Sam Colucci, Patsy McCafterty, Harry Shallcross, Joan Bagwell, and Doris Kelber as well as many from last year's cast. To Miss Geehr, for her excellent job of directing our Senior play, went many votes of thanks, and, of course, to those who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make our play go off well, the class extended their sincere thanks. And so ended our last dra- matic presentation as a class at Park High.
