JUNIOR PLAY The junior Class brought down the house with the performance of The Arrival of Kitty. Much credit goes to Miss Nelson for her fine work and sympathetic understanding as director, and to the student staff, under the direction of Earl Kollender. Plot: Bobbie Baxter's disguise as a gold-digging actress turned the habits of one William Winkler inside out. The arrival of the real Kitty placed Winkler in a tight spot and gave Bobbie his opportunity to ask for and win his sweetheart jane, who has misunderstood him. The cast included: Raymond Mitchell, Selma Barry, Irvin Saul, Helen Car- ter, Vernon Demaree, Maxine Beekley, Buster Navarro, Harold McAllister, and Maidie Weaver. SENIOR PLAY 34 The Senior play, Growing Pains, was excellently cast with the following members of the class of '36: Mildred Nilsen, Ernest Adams, Rosalis Dunham, Ira Elmer, Grace Quarterman, Rosemarie Street, Carol Lester, Martin Willson, Frank Rivers, james Rainey, Robert Brugge. Granville Reed, Donald Bunce, Dorothy Miller, Dorothy Broad, joyce Eagleton, jean Campbell, and Margery Stevens. The play dealt with the difficulties of vounfa people in passing through the period of adolescence and presented some of its complications. The end of the play found the brother and sister no more grown up than they were at the beginning. The production was splendidly directed by Miss Leech.
