Gi? AIF'lLnlEI A-QW, i EVERYYOUTH The commencement program of the class of 1935 consisted of the pageant, Everyyouth, a parody of the fifteenth century morality classic Everyman, but modern in setfing. The stage setting for the two scenes-the Highway of Adventure and an Old Inn, the House of Experience4was particularly effective. The colorful costumes, folk dancing, singing, string music, and varied lights, combined with symbolic character portrayal made this fantasy an ar- tistic production. The presentation of diplomas by Mr. Frank, Principal, to Everyyouth was made an in- tegral part of the pageant. The graduates were highly complimented for their use of a newer type of CAST OF CHARACTERS Fairy Queen ..........................., Margaret Williams Xvar ..... ..... .... .... .....

159' E21 NEW F IRES , New Fires was produced by an all-school cast on November 26, under the direction of Miss Edin and Mr. Frank. This comedy reveals the experiences of an author, Stephen Santry, in his task of teaching his family the value of work. The entire action takes place in the Santry homestead living- room-dining-room, which reflects the spirit of a generation ago in its simple design and austere furnishings. In this setting are found Lucinda Andrews, a domineering housekeeperg Suzanne, her meek spinster assistantg Sid Sperry, a faithful farmhandg and the latter's boastful son, jerry: all of whom furnish delightful humor with their homely speech and rustic manners. The rest of the country group are Mary Marshall, a scarlet fever patient: Mrs. Marshall, a helpful neigh- hor: Angie Sperry, a pantomime character, and Doctor Gray, a young physician. In contrast to this group are the Chicago author's family-Billy and Phyllis, carefree. en- thusiastic adolescentsg Olive, a spoiled debutanteg Dick, a selfish son, who has married Eve, a girl of considerable common sense: and the wife Anne, fond of ease and luxury. Each role of this popular comedy was admirably acted and highly commended. Lucinda Andrews ...,.. Suzanne Toler ..... , . . Sid Sperry ,...... .... jerry ..........,. .... Stephen Santry .
