Yes, we were a bit nervous, but the many afternoon and Saturday morning rehearsals stood us in good stead, and under the capable direction of Miss Frazier, I.ailiex of tba' J111'-y was presented to an appreciative audience. From the very beginning, we were again the characters that had become so much second nature: show girls, socialites, suave attorneys, and hard-boiled businessmen. The setting of the play is Rosedale, N. J., where the attractive Mrs. Romney Gordon is on trial for murdering her husband. After the two attorneys have finally agreed on the jury, the testimony of the wit- n Jsscs is heard, and the jury retires to reach a verdict. From then on pandemonium reigns. Mrs. Crane is the only juror who believes Mrs. Gordon guiltless, but by the finale her infallible instinct has firmly convinced the others of the lovely wid0w's innocence. The de- cision is not reached, however, without heated argu- ments, a fist fight, love scenes, long speeches, and, to top it all off-steak dinners. Zme . . .
