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
