Such little sayings as — The secret room — Did you see the bookcase? — Who was the Tiger man? -— She lost her teeth right in the middle of the second act. Tues- day evening was the final climax to these mysterious wails. There was one reason — that's simple. It was the final night of, 'rite Tiger House,” by Robert St. Glair. This was the first time that the scenery was half of the play. With- out the help of the art and shop classes, we would never have had the right “touch” in the play. Everyone had been working weeks before under the steadfast and persistent direction of Mrs. Rates. She had sympathy when we needed it hut still there was that steady push that we all needed. The cast was well chosen and all did an excellent job. The sly cunningness of Jack Reardon, the mysterious Mystery Woman, the im- pressive Yami. unsuspecting Aunt Eophie, the daringness of Rob Frulla and the excellent handling of Erma by Did Maxam. Yes, I almost for- got Oswald, l ot you need no introduction to him. Mrs. Murdock, de- spite her limp, was very handy around the house. The stage crew should he rewarded for the cooperation that added to the great success of the play. It took direction, people backstage, makeup, costumes, and the cast all working for the same goal. Everyone felt that “Tiger House” was a huge success; the hard work was well worth it.

This year Hie Hi-Rock litis taken another slop in progress. Wo have been experimenting with mimeographing and have found that it produces a successful paper. With many deadlines sel and many not met, still, we managed to let the kids in on what is happening around school. Our 1 usy reporters have been seen (at the last minute!) fly- ing about Ihe hulls, picking up whatever gossip they could find. Many long hours both after school and on Saturdays were spent producing this paper. From one end of Ihe year to Ihe other you could find Ihe staff plugging away to give you Ihe latest news in Sports, Hit Parade, Lit- erary, Jokes, Features, and Fashions. Those leading Ihe stall' were Joyce Stone, Editor: Alice Whittemore, Assistant Editor; and Mr. Scully. Faculty Advisor. The patience of Mr. Scully added to Ihe per- sistence of Joyce Stone, the Editor, is what ultimately gave the paper ils success. Next year we hope to put out as successful a paper as this year's was.
