Senior Class Play June Mad, a rollicking comedy of modern youth, directed by Mrs. Elizabeth Reed Mann, was presented April 18 and 19 in the high school auditorium. This play by Ryerson and Clements concerned Penny Wood and Chuck Harris, the boy next door, as they went about the frequently difhcult, but always amusing business of growing up. When Penny's Uncle Mervyn, only five years older than she, brought Roger Van Vleck, a killer-diller, home from college, she forgot to be a man-hater and succumbed to an attack of calf love which was ten degrees worse than measles. The discovery that Roger was double-crossing Mervyn by stealing his girl brought her back to normal and, incidentally, to Chuck. This very superior show was highlighted by Millie Lou's constant pestering and by Julie Harris' fatal charms. 16

T0 the Members of the Class of l94l Three years ago when you were placed in my charge, to guide, to counsel, or to direct, as the case might be, I was overcome with the magnitude of the responsibility. I had my misgivings as to the success of the undertaking, doubts as to my being able to carry it on to a successful conclusion. Today, however, I can look back with a feeling of pride and satisfaction on the way you settled yourselves to the tasks to be done, knowing my efforts would have been in vain without your prompt obedience to instructions and rules laid down. I very much appreciate your willingness to work for the good of the class and your hearty cooperation in anything I asked you to do. Your accomplishments during your high school years have been many and variedg moreover, there seemed to be a desire among you to make a success of the job and you can rest assured that your action in this respect was a source of joy and pleasure to me. Since you entered to learn, now you go forth to servef' it is my sincere wish that your service will redound to your own beneHt and that of your community, and to your country. fake! '
