Senior Class Play
Given Last Week Was
Splendid Success
\ ---
The senior class play directed by
Miss Lela Dalton and given at the
high school auditorium Friday even-
ing of last week was a splendid
success.
The play, "Getting Acquainted
With Madge,” was a cleverly acted
one. The characters were well placed
and each part was cleverly done.
Despite unfavorable weather a
fair sized crowd was present to
enjoy the play. A total of $50 was
received from ticket sales which
made the play a success from a
financial point as well as from
every other angle. Miss Dalton is
deserving of much credit for the
able manner in which she directed
the play and handled the financial
phasq of it as well.
Following is a summary of ’the
play:
Friday night, May 6, 1932, the
senior class of the high school pre-
sented the play "Getting Acquainted
With Madge,■ a comedy in three
acts. Tne plot was laid in Penn-
sylvania where five university boys
became very interested in a girl
whom they thoug-ht they had never
seen before. They were all trying
to gain her friendship and a date
with her for the big football game
on Thanksgiving day. Arthur Tilden,
played by Wayne Cooper, posed as
a historian looking into the history
of the town. Ray O’Brien portrayed
the part of Harry Neville, who
posed as a noted doctor coming to
the Ridgeway house. Dr. Ridgeway,
played by Bill Pratt, was the father
of Madge Ridgeway, the girl that
the boys were all trying to meet.
Jimmie Lee Diggs played the part
