★ f f f f f POW WOW If Iff ★ Senior Class Play The Senior Class presented two one-act plays on the night of April 25, after having practiced and rehearsed for three weeks under the guidance of Miss Ridgley. “In Doubt About Daisy,” a comedy in one act was presented first. The characters in this were: Mother Turner—who wants to go on a honeymoon ........... Madonna Storm Dad Turner—who must go along ........................ Raymond Rentfrow Honor—their daughter ................................. Alice Hortenstine Mac—their son ........................................... David Munson Katherine Berry—the girl from the city .......... Frances Mave Douthit Herb Kempton—the boy next door........................... LeRoy Walker “A Ghostly Evening” was presented as the other play. This was an eerie comedy in one act in which ghosts made their entrances and exits into the play at such times that even the ghosts got scared. There was a mysterious air to the play and the two negro characters kept the dialogue funny. The characters were: Mrs. Thomas Marrow (Stella)—a devoted mother ............ Betty Hennigh Theodora Marrow—her charming daughter ...................... Edna Myers Azaleen—the Marrows colored maid ...................... Marjorie Slater Florian De Sylvester—her new boy friend ................ Harvey Walker Joan Simms—a close friend of Theodora's .................... Betty Slifer Rush Simms—her brother ................................. Elmer Wallace Mrs. Anastasia Penfold—a society matron ................... Louise Rose Kenyon Penfold—her son, who loves to boast of his bravery .... Harold Leeds Between the plays the German Band played a few numbers. This group is composed of four seniors: Harold Leeds, cornet; Harvey Waker, cornet; Leroy Walker, baritone: Laurance Soland, bass. Also between plays, Jacque Morford tap-danced and a gift was presented to the director, Miss Ridgley, by the Senior class. Closing Days The students are looking forward, some with gladness and others with sorrow, to tne closing days of this year. The last week of school promises to be a busy one. The Seniors get out a week early so they have their semester exams May 21. The Baccalaureate is to be the 25th, followed by the graduation exercises the 28th. The other students have their semester exams the 27th, and 28th. May 29 is the big event of the year because it is the last. That day the students bid farewell to W. C. H. S. until next September, and the Seniors, good by forever, as far as lessons are concerned. ★ ff ff f WCHS 1941 f f f f f ★ —13—
