Kupfer. uniaaefczu The lights dimmed, the curtains parted, and University High students and friends settled back to enjoy Girl Shy, one of the most humorous plays in recent years. The time was 8:15 on the evening of November 17, 1944, and the place was Capen Auditorium. Merle Murray, as girl shy Tom Arsdale, Pat Hollowell, as Barbara Sanford, and Everette Roeder, as Oke Stimson, were the leading characters. Other members of the cast were Charlotte Miller, joan Kupfer, Glen Murray, Corinne Carson, Marcella Pearson, Irv Tick, Yvonne Maxey, David Brazelton, and John Teter. The story concerns Babs Sanford and her struggles to catch Tom Arsdale. Of course, many complications arise. Mr. G. Banber, a newcomer to University High, was the splendid director. He was assisted by Miss Maxine Miller, Miss Patricia Weldon, and Peggy Minch. The make-up committee consisted of Gretchen Gottschalk, and Oleta Lanigan. Costumes were in charge of Charlotte Geske, Barbara Kauth, and Dorothy Ragland. On the property committee were Polly Flesher and Wanda Bundy.
