HIGH SCHOOL PLAY The all school play was one of the outstanding productions of the school year. The cast included: Lloyd Carlson as Paul jones, Mary Helen Kelley, Mrs. Jones, Dennis Hamilton, Mr. Jones, Bill Norgaard, Junior, and Thelma Dun- can, Mary Jones. Barbara Knutson played the part of Jane, Paul's girl, Don Moe played Jack, Mary's boy friend. Ruby Koch played Anna the maid, Beat- rice Hansen, Lilah, junior? s girl, and Dan Hess, Mr. Smudgely, the high school principal. The plot of the story is an episode in the life of the Jones family. Paul is four days from finishing his high school education and has to make a 95 in his history examination or spend his vacation in summer school instead of at the lake. Junior, the kid brother, gets Paul into hot water with Mr. Smudgely, the principal. Mr. and Mrs. Jones sympathize with Paul, but they think getting into the University is more- important than going to the lake. Mary doesn't help Paul much by telling him of how romantic it will be at the lake. Paul and Jack decide upon a much needed cram session. There are laughs and excitement galore when Paul mistakes an emetic for quick energy pow- dered sugar. On top of all this, he gets into more trouble with Mr. Smudgely and is accused of stealing the examination the night before the test. Lilah, Junior's secret passion, always pops up at the Wrong time. Anna played a good character part. The outcome of the story is amazing but happy. Miss Ruth Salkin, the director, was in no small Way responsible for the success of the play. Thelma Duncan ...30...

THE GALLEON One ship sailed east And one sailed west By the self same wind that blew. ,T is the set of the sail ' And not the gale that Determines the way one goes. Evidently the sails of the good ship Galleon were set in the right direction for under the guidance of Captain Katherine Turner and with the helpful assistance of first mate Gloria Moser everything went well. The well-chosen crew did their work graciously. Our girls' sports editor, Elena Olsen and boys' sports editors, Bill Cheatley and Lloyd Carlson, are to be commended for their work. When our feature editor, Barbara Knutson and joke editor, Howard Wangsness, got together they cooked up some juicy news which was very in- teresting to all of us. The Galleon covers were artistically arranged by Jackie Isom. Our other capable reporters were Bette Burrill, Phyllis Miller, and Beat- rice Hansen. We give thanks to the typists. Mary Lou Haugstad and many of the staff members assisted a great deal. Mimeographers Ted Knutson, and Curtis Fuller did their work faithfully and well. Last but far from least, we salute our adviser, Miss Kipp-erberg for her helpful assistance, without which, little would have been accomplished. Katherine Turner .. 32 -
