The Seniors Act In accordance with the usual custom the senior class play ot 1943 was chosen by a committee of class members working with the class adviser and the dramatic teacher. After much thought and consideration the play committee headed by lane Gavcr and assisted by Miss Handlan, class adviser, and Miss Scaburv, dramatics coach, chose a hilarious comedy in three acts, And Came The Spring. When try outs were held there was a lot ot competition for the roles. Room 210 became the actor’s heaven every night after school.
