H3100 We proudly present an outstanding three-act play which, while bearing neither title nor author, includes a cast of nearly eighty characters, all of whom at some time or other have had a role in this unusual production. As the scene opens, we see a sun-filled school room with several scrubbed, shining boys and girls proudly displaying a recent accomplishment--that of writing their names in large awkward letters across a Palmer Method sheet. An ABC session immediately follows, while, with eyes intent upon the blackboard, they begin building the foundations of their education. The clock finally reaches the long-awaited recess hour. with the sound of a bell and what appears to be a great gust of wind rushing through the banging doors, we gaze with compassion upon the dejected figure of the teacher as she wearily drops into her chair. The second and third scenes of this first act prove to be exhilarating in every detail. It is with much damage left behind and a promise of good behavior ahead that the actors leave grade school and proudly march to Junior High. The curtain swings back on Act Two and we notice that many more characters have been added to the cast, which is now divided into three sections. Their faces beam with delight as the teachers explain the new schedule including gym periods, assemblies, dances, and different teachers for each class. The boys occupying the back of the Study Hall hesitatingly surrender their sling-shots to the disapprovlng teacher. Girls parade down the corridor with bright- flowered or polka-dot gym bags slung carelessly over their shoulders. A Get-Acquainted Party, featuring a skit, highlights their ninth year in school. The four years in Junior High come to a close and are climaxed by the memorable Junior High graduation. A feeling of pride surges through the graduates as they walk across the stage to receive their well-earned certlfh 1C8teS . At the opening of Act Three, several high school sophomores are seen wandering downstairs, upstairs, to senior homeroom, and back to Sophomore Alley as a result of being purposely mis- directed when inquiring as to the whereabouts of a certain room. The first gym period is the scene of much commotion while the Juniors and Seniors initiate the Sophs into their gym classes by means of a surprise cold shower. Class elections come up, with each candidate offering a class trip half way around the world if elected to office Plans to raise funds for the senior trip include a Sophomore Hop, a bake sale and the inevitable class dues Scene Two finds the actors in their Junior year eagerly anticipating the Junior play and the prom As the main interest seems to center around the class treasury, another bake sale is held The class proudly presents two one act plays, Cleaned and Pressed and Bird on The ng Some of the students are seen flashing their new class rings around before the envious eyes of the Sophomores The third scene of this play brings about a stately change in the actors and actresses as they march in to occupy 206 for their last year in high school Senior homeroom houses the cast Of course, the Blue Christmas Ball and the senior play Our Hearts were Young and gay are among the outstanding events of the year Several dances and Bake sales he throughout the term and the concession stand operated by the Seniors, add considerably to the class treasury Class day proves to be one of the most touching scenes of the drama and portrays the true feeling of the actors It is with much regret that the Seniors leave 206 to the Juniors The entire cast enjoys the many activities of the class trip and looks proudly ahead to graduation The final scene of this dramatic production finds the group together for perhaps the last time, as they finally reach their goal and are presented with their high school diplomas This is, without a doubt, an unforgettable scene, as each character plays an important part in making it one of the most memorable events in the lives of each player 30 wi .
