SENIOR PLAY PRESENTED
The Senior Play "Laughing
Gas” was presented Friday eve
ning in the High School Auditor
ium to a capacity audience. Judg-j
ing from the laughs and applause,
it was a successful performance. j

between acts and the action ol
the play was swift, the excitement
never lagged.
Outstanding in their roles were
W. T. Smothers as the stupid po
liceman and unwilling bride
groom; Wanda Lee as a chorus
girl and his determined bride;
Kuby Sparks as the excitable
young girl; and Narcissus Mon
real, as an Italian landlady; Nila
Graham as the dumb Swedish
maid; Virginia Gleason as the
maiden aunt; and Benny Arnold
as the G-man who masquerades as
a detective-story writer, portrayed
their respective parts very con
vincingly. The air of mystery was
helped along by Frank Woody, the
masked-man, and Ciayton Trout
who played the part of a “corpse
Florence Wing as the older sister
and Irene Atkisson as a surrealis
tic poet performed their parts ab
ly-
The play was under the direc
tion of Miss Eugenie Brandon.
The support of the towns people
who helped in the production of
the play by either attending or
lending properties, is greatl> ap-|
preciated by the Senior class.
