Helen Hunt Jackson's immortal love story thrilled the heart of its audience on March 28, 1952 as Barbara Johnson starred in the title role while Ray Keefer played opposite her in the part of her lover. Others in- cluded in the cast were Burton Johnson, lVIary Ann Chapek, Grayce Anderson, Charles Borreson, Carolyn Temple, Don Harris, Fred Kolterman, Thomas Mc- ! Mahon, Imogene Barry, and Bernard Kavan. The play was under the successful direction of Mrs. Mabel Krause, with Carolyn Cameron as student director.

Although the Chieftain staff members soon recovered from before-issue fatigue and from nervousness, to them, each issue represented long hours, days, and even weeks of deliberate planning and preparation. The faculty advisor, al- ways ready with sound advice and guidance, and the efficient editor, planned each issue. The articles not only had to be written but also typed and retyped by Miss Doty's competent typists, made into a dummy copy, and stenciled. Car- toons and headlines were added before it could be mimeographed. This opera- tion was accelerated and made much easier by the addition of a new mimeo- graph machine during the year. After it was distributed came the gratifying reward. As students praised an article or complimented a staff member, the long wearisome hours and many sacrifices were forgotten. However, this feeling of carefree relief was soon cut short as Work on the next issue began. The seven issues of the Chieftain Staff were an accurate record of the years activities.

EQ, 5, - 5 Througha merry mixture of monkeyshines, the plot thickened until Tom Tw Snelling, Winkie Gleeson's boyfriend, stole a pair of trousers and was accused of being a housebreaker and thief. Tom's awkvvardness in knickers and Leonard Lindgreifs apparent embarrassment at losing his trousers created a laughing streak that could be heard throughout the crowd for the entire evening. The use of the new stage with its modern lighting enchanced the atmos- phere of this hilarious comedy. The play was aptly directed by Mrs. Mabel Krause with Rita Fanning, student director.
