The plot involved the attempts of Peewee Smith, a college boy, aided by his friend, Dick Reynolds, to raise money for an annulment of PeeWee's hasty and ill considered marriage to Peaches Greeding, a herd-boiled chorus girl several years his senior. However, these efforts multiplied rather than solved the boys' problems. Complications included Peaches' murder, the hidden loot of a bank robbery, and a sinister trio of voodoo practitioners. As if this were not enough, two rival sheriffs, one a woman, battled over jurisdiction since the mur- der was committed in a room bisected by the county line. The play furnished a responsive audience a succession of thrills and laughter until the final curtain. louise Evgen Marvin Nelson Darrell Lininger Ronald Bakkn Doris Moore Gordon Dund Dennis Espeland Lillian Krowe Duane Swartz Marvin Nelson Selma Bervik Jo Ann Listoe Marlys Dordhagen Dalton Moore Shirley Helseth Marion Nordbagen LeRoy Olson
