Juniors Present George Washington Slept Here The impish niece Ramona, Shelley Sallee, eavesdrops on Annabelle, Mary Hegarty. The Junior Class presented George Washinton Slept Here, a three-act comedy, November 20 and 21. The comedy centers on Newton Fuller, a sentimental little American, who wants just a piece of land to call his own. Newton, his wife Annabelle, and their daugh- ter Madge, are hypnotized into taking over one of those windowless, waterless, and almost roofless houses that dot the countryside. The ensuing troubles may be summed up as a search for water, plus a quarrel with a neighbor who owns not only the brook, but the very road that leads from the highway to the house. Adding to the confusion is the attempted elopement of their daughter with the sum- mer-theater actor, and the usual invasion of the week- end guests. These guests include a prodigal uncle who is assumed to be rich, but who turns out to be bankrupt. When this play was on Broadway, Jack Benny played Newton Fuller. His wife played Annabelle. Ramona gets her just deserts, as Rena and Annabelle carry her from the room.

December 20, the student council sponsored the Snow- ball dance. It was a Wonderland by Night. Dry Ice played to help spread warmth on this chilly even- ing. The parachute was put up to create the snowy mood of the winter months. A snowman and a Christmas tree were added to the holiday atmosphere.
