Seniors of" rtk>ldth walte
high school presented their an-
nual* play last week and set a
record for attendance for senior
plays. The auditorium was filled
to capacity befpre time for cur-

The play showed much prepa-
ration and work. All characters
presented their parts so as to
show meaning In action as well
as word. Thls-play proved some
real talent In our high school.
The stage manager, Hubert
Shaw, had the stage arranged
perfectly . and was alert in
changes, between acts. His ef-
forts are greatly appreciated.
The profit of the play was $65,
which will go to the seating pro-
ject for grammar school audi-
torium. This has been the pro-
ject that seniors classes have
chosen for the past few years/
