. . . even strut and fret an hour upon the stage . . . This year the Seniors turned from the classics to present as their dramatic highlight of the year a gay modern comedy, YOUNG APRIL. To say that is was gay and modern is not to say that it is necessarily light and frivolous and without value. In fact, its values were positive and worthwhile. It brought home to the audience in a humorous manner that parents' problems need as much sympathy as do their teen-age sons, and daughters'. It pointed out, too, that young people can often be trusted to make decisions as wise and sensible as those their elders might make for them. The story of the play revolved around the Mc- Intyre family whose peaceful life became compli- cated when their son, George, came home from col- lege to announce that he had fallen in love with the Hprettiest girl on the campus and intended to give up engineering so he could get a job and ask her to marry him. Their daughter, Terry, then tried to elope with a pathetic lVIama's Boy . The play's interest lies in restoring balance and a true set of values to these young people. You've got a lot to learn says Terry's sophisticated boy friend, Bert Parsons fCliff Monteaul as Terry warns him that He's not going to get a chance to write about her in his little book.
