Barb Briggs Howard McGill . . Phyllis Rule Jerry Cornwell John McDaniel Margaret Cripe ... Betty Eller . Harley Miller ... Helen Buck Charles Yoder And we'll never forget—the time Jerry and Howard were wrestling on the sofa and knocked it over—how Jerry al- ways delighted in throwing Howard off cue by saying, What did you say about the door being locked? —Barb's keeping Howard in suspense by her frequent change of address—the boys dashing in, leaving their hats on, and showing the usual senior courtesy.
