PxoL OQUE J In V»tw()0(l Ilifili S li ) )l lies the s eene : tiic cast, tlie Class of ' 50 Uireetors are the I ' aeulty whuin we must admit were nifty! To unilerstand the plot ahead, look hark upon this story From w hence we were welcome ! upon the set, still fragrantly sorry That we ha«l ever heard of it. I ' . J.V Kvol i)erfunie: and ever proud hecause for us the very first of all A Junior Hijjh Commencement was allowed in tiie lli ;h School Hall. The Influence that fcllo actors can have on one another Is illustrated hy IJill and l{os when tlic came with Ross ' s mother. They hoth were shy and most respectful to all of their directors I ntil the) conformeil to our wa) of life — we the correctors. Now they were as had as we when it came to skipping classes . . . We the players ever left, with any excuse, in masses. Mr. Stevens, Jr.. came to relieve his wearied father The poor man could take no more — we had him in a lather. Miss Elliott and Miss Keenan, who were the cast advisors Had trials and trii)ulations with the companies contrivers. A Sadie Hawkin ' s Dance we held — -hoy, it was a honey! Everyone had lots of fun. hut we lost heaps of money. Vallender Did It hecame the cry where ' er there was confusion; The directors didn ' t appreciate this frequent intrusion. Thus we left our freshman year, prei)aring to he so{)homores. Now we would have speaking parts, though they would be minors. Once fall rehearsals had begun, we coined ourselves this slogan: We must be different, we decided, and this was never broken. We tried to impeach our {)resident, the honorable Kenny Brewster, But the Supreme Court would not agree so we resigned ourselves to booster. Shirley wowed the school and more with Walter and the Altar ; Lanni ' s Siamese ballet made all the fellows falter. Bubbles Coyne acquired her name from an oral talk on soap, Chick ' s lively music received everybody ' s vote. Some of us were studying French under Mr. Baldassarre But his threats and actions were more than we could carry. He finally bad to leave, poor man, his wits bad started failing. With M iss Folev, who replaced him, we had fairh smooth sailing. Charlie Guise, our nature boy, moved way out to New Jersey; Normie Johnson, to celebrate, parsed around some Hershey. Frannie Booth came back from Europe; he ' d traveled all around. To touch him was impossible: bis feet were off the ground.
