Drama Department Discovers a Dozen and One Dead Bodies The Scotus Drama Department delighted its audiences on April 28- 29 with its presentation by an all- school cast (OPPOSITE PAGE), in Arsenic and Old Lace. The play centers about two elderly ladies with a knack for poisoning old gentlemen to relieve them of their miseries. Trouble brews when their nephew decides to visit them. It seems to him that his eccentric brother has committed the murders and has buried the corpses in the cellar. Another brother, the black sheep of the family shows up with a friend which is another complication In the end, the criminals are un- wittingly caught, the old ladies de- cide to go to the home for the men- tally unbalanced. All players performed well in their respective roles and the play was a successful endeavor. The play was directed by Mr. Gary Fendrick and produced by special arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc.
