M aurice Macklin REVIEW OF THE PLAY So many things happen in such quick succession that to tell the story would require more space than we have. However, briefly: Take as an opening situation the following constituents: an actress trying to coerce the owner of Castle Rock Inn into selling her property to a.movie colony, the arrival by plane of a famous air hero whose mission, it is understood, is selecting locations for government airportsg and a posted reward of 510,000 for the capture of a gang of diamond robbers be- lieved to be in the vicinity of the Inn. Add to this the comedy, love interests, and counter plots occasioned by the actions of the many delightful characters, and top it with the numerous amusing situations resulting from almost everybody turning sleuth, in a mad attempt to win the 510,000 reward, and you have a play that is a continuous occurrence of merry mix-ups. Produced by special arrangement with Banner Play Bureau. Directors: Bonnie Deemer and E. W. Hausser. Page twenty-nine l-gl... 1

Josephine Swartz STORY OF THE PLAY Dumb Dolivar deserved his name. He shouldn't have fallen in love with Patty Hampton when her hot-tempered Papa had already picked his future son-in-law. Or, if he did have to fall in love with Patty, he should have married her first and tried to settle things with Papa later. But Dolivar comes to the Holly Inn to meet Papa. Then, thinks Dolivar, everything will be different. It is. It's worse. He tries to get into Papa's good graces, and he just gets in his hair. Papa and Doliver get along quietly-just like a boiler factory. John Hampton roars like a lion, but he's being led like a lamb to the slaughter, for a grass widow intends to marry Papa for his bankroll, and her ex-husband has convinced Papa that's he's just the husband for Patty. Then Dolivar comes to be Hampton's secretary. It seems like such a good idea. Of course, Dolivar has never been a secretary before, but then Hampton has never had a secretary before, either. When the curtain rises, Dolivar appears. He looks in the room and then puts his foot in it. He keeps right on doing the wrong things in the wrong way at the wrong time until the final curtain.

Through the able coaching of Miss Townsend, the squad was declared League Champions and runners-up in the tournament. Of their 21 times on the floor the girls won 16 and had one tie game. This year we lose four of our team by graduation. DOUGI-ITY-Captain and guard, always with her team when she was needed. Iler equals are few when it comes to playing basketball. REYNOLDS--Guard, she never shirked but played until the final gun was fired. Iler absence will be xery evident. MOORMAN--Forward, when it came to making baskets Vera was right there. She helped win many a game. MACK-Forward, even though Ruth was a substitute she will be missed. When- ever she was in the game she did her part. COACH TOWNSEND-Although this is her first year she has proved her worth. MANAGER SHAFFER-Also a Senior. She never refused to do her duty but worked faithfully with the coach and team. Those who will remain for the team next year are: Ruth Hayes, Evelyn Failor, Mary Stonehill, Jean Mack, Edith Hayman, Martha Stonehill Mildred Metzger.
