B. Sweeney Has Lead in Play
To Be Given by Senior Class
"The Little Dog Laughed" and so will you when
you see this three-act comedy by Vera and Ken Tarp

the direction of Miss Laura Grubbs. Music will be
provided by the orchestra, conducted by Mr. Bernhard
Windt.

logical knots!
Domestic "knot s" become
near-tragedies for Sid Hunting
ton (Lawrence Lebow), his wife
Martha (Barbara Hild), and pre

a downward trend for Sid while
prosperity reigns for the rival
Woods family, including "Dead
wood" (Bill Bates), Lillian (Jes
sie Mackie), and their attractive
daughter, Joansie (Ann William
son), who is Wally's first choice
and quite eager to help him and
Laurie and the family feud.

to straighten out her family's
tangled lives, Laurie goes zeal
ously to work. With the Zom-
browski Ink Blot Test she lays
bare the "inner personalities" of
her mother's astonished and
