JANUARY THAW On May 14 and 15, the senior class pre- sented the sparkling Broadway comedy, January Thaw. The play revolved around the Gage family, who had recently moved to an old farmhouse in Connecticutg a peaceful atmosphere in which Mr. Gage could attempt to write a best-seller. Some time after the Gages arrived in Connecticut, the Rockwoods, an elderly couple who had originally owned the house, returned, claiming they had a right to stay in the house as long as they lived. A fight for possession of the house began, with neither family being able to turn the other out. The situation became even more compli- cated when the Gage's daughter apparently eloped with the Rockwood's song and Mr. Husted, her fiance, arrived in Connecticut for their intended marriage. All in all, the play was a tremendous success, with the audience bursting into spontaneous laughter at many incidents in the play. The senior class wishes to thank the members of the cast, the members of the various committees, the directors, and anyone else who helped make this play one K , K fa sf- xr , ' w-...ff ' 'ti I .
