JUDY HILLS THE CURTAIN Once again a junior play cast has perform- ed with much success! The audience from be- ginning to end was literally kept in stitches by the comical and whimsical roles portrayed in Judy Pulls the Curtain , which was pre- sen oed Dec. 2 in the City Hall. The plot involves three girls who think themselves quite capable of becoming great actresses. These roles were played by Lu- cille Chandler as Lucy Martin, Mildred McFall as Judy Travis, and Winifred Ruse as Ann Tr- avis, who might really reach Hollywood at their gait. Gary Tyler portraying Bill Martin, Gary Shadel as Johnny Blair, and Clair Dove as Jack Travis were fed-up with the girls' play acting. Capitalizing on the girls' repeated asser- tions that they are going to Hollywood, the boys resort to desnerate tactics. They go so far as to hire Joy Sydney (Eldon Metzger) an itinerant tough guy with a touch of Hollywood experience, to dress up and present him- self as one interested in theatre future greets. The girls gladly do their stuff for him—with improvements. And Joe does more thar he was hired to do'. Professor and Mrs. Travis (Ronny Carpenter and Beverly Brothers) are drawn into the net of intrigue. The towns-people gather outside en masse, struggling to see the great Hollywood personality. Bedlay follows. Joe is exposed. The girls plan revenge. Joe forcibly works the professor into his plot—even humilia- ting him by compelling him to don female attire. The cast would not be complete with- out the Cook twins (Delores Wenger and Susie Mishler) who were also infected with dramatic aspirations, or Miss Sloan (Betty Stewart) who always got her man . Keith Haxton and Lee White were state managers. joe 3 oofcin’ paster! £of - worn®11 • r ...Smil® hold iv.. KinSston You’ll have . If Pies is my favorite dessert

fOOTBHLL LfTTERIHtn ELDON AESCHLIMAN, 140 pound senior guard,made up in speed for what he lacked in weight. He could always be depended upon to open or fill a hole whichever might be necessary. When Eldon hit 'em, they either stopped or went into reverse. His shoes will be hard to fill another year. JACK BAKER, 150 pound freshman end, was at the outset just another freshman, but he soon developed into a tough, hard-hitting player. Jack was a good pass receiver as well as a good tackier. With three years to go Jack could become a whizz. ARTHUR BELL, a Junior back of 150 pounds, was a definite boost to our team. He is fast, hits hard, and works like a Trogan. The de- fensive load will fall largely to him in 1950 CHARLES BEYER, 145 pound back, this shifty senior racked up a multitude of yards for the Blue Jays. Charles was a constant threat in both offensive and defensive plays. Although he has lettered in other sports, this is his first football letter which he really earned KIETH BROOKS, a freshman weighing 125 pounds left the impression after one year of playing that with more maturity and experience he will be one of the Blue Jays' key men in the backfield for ensuing seasons. Keith's abil- ity to dodge and drive made him felt on the team. Three years hold promise for this guy. JIM BROWNLEE, senior quarter back weighing 150 pounds, knew how to call the right play at the right time. His ability to change to a half-back position at the need was a defi- nite advantage, especially in a season that had as many injuries as this one had. RONNIE CARPENTER, a junior six-footer weigh- ing 175 pounds, filled the bill with a defen- sive play at left end that was particularly outstanding. Any opponent whose ambitions led him around Ronnie's comer found that he had.taken on himself a large order. He is al- ready a two-letter man. He should go places next year. KENNETH CLIETON, 150 pound senior fullback, was an important cog in the wheel because of his powerful drives off-tackle when power was most needed. He was a good down-field block- er and the man to stoo the opposing ball-car- rier. That's why his teammates elected him an honorary captain for 1949. DONALD DODD, used at end and tackle, this 170 pound senior developed rapidly and had.his best night stopping a fired-up Hiawatha elev- en. His sensing of enemy line thrusts solid- ified his team defense. ALVIN GATES, another junior of 140- pounds, played a good defensive job as back. He was one of the hardest hitting players on the team. Once he had his hands on an opponent, that runner was stuck. With another year on his head, he ought to be a first rate player. CHARLES KIDWELL, a 150 pound senior, was par- ticularly effective when his southpaw pass- ing from quarterback-slot confused opponents. When switched to halfback, he was one of the Blue Jays' top receivers. It was his key blocking that cut loose senior classmate, Ken- ny Clifton, on a 96 yard touchdown dash —the longest of the season. LYLE LANCASTER, sophomore of 155 pounds, was a bulwark in our line, though quiet and unas- suming as he is. Other boys were bigger, but Lyle's ability to get to the bottom of each play made him particularly a man to be reck- oned with. As a returning letterman, he will give impetus to the 1950-51 Blue Jays. KENNETH LEU1H0LD, a swash-buckling guard of 150 pounds, was a ranking Blue Jay defensive bulwark. This blonde senior was a colorful performer who will be sorely missed come an- other football season. DONALD McCLEELLAN, junior and a 150 pound end, was adept at spilling interference and in mes- sing up opponents' play. He is light and short for the position, but he proved to be a defensive powerhouse, just the same. ROY RALSTON, a 170 pound sophomore, proved to be a pillar in the Blue Jay line. In addit- ion his aggressive spirit made him respected by opponents as well as teammates. His abil- ity to block and tackle stopped many an op- ponent's plans. Roy will be back next year to boost his team. JOHN ROSS, a 170 pound lineman and a junior, played brilliantly in his first season as a starter. In fact not even a fracture of his Jimmie Durante proboscis slowed him up. This charging lineman will be one of the top play- ers in his position next year. GARY SHADED, junior center of 150 pounds, was not a regular, but he was a good center who could always open a hole in the line. Gary’s service lay in keeping his teammates in high spirits which is one cf the most valuable con- tributions a player can make. He is a fine prospect for next year. CH'.RLES (Charlie) SHO'.YALTER, 165 pound senior tackle, earned his first letter in football this year. Although he was not a regular, he could be depended on to fill a tackle slot. His specialty was throwing the enemy baB-car- rier for no gain. DONALD (DON) THIEME, 150 pound guard, wasn't very big, but he did a remarkable Job of fill- ing that hole in the center line. Don was a hard hitting linebacker. His team spirit will be sadly missed when another football season rolls around. VANCE WENGER, a sophomore tackle weighing 175 pounds, was the foundation of the Sabetha for- ward wall. His devastating blocking made pos- sible a great number of SHS gains. He was an expert at stopping the opposition. Vance will be a boy to watch the next two years. LEE WHITE, the 165 pound Junior end, was a constant threat to the offense and a hard tackier on defense. This lanky six foot two was on the paying end of many a pass. Lee will be around for another year of football.
