Public Speaking Plays Slated
The two public speaking plays
will be presented May 3, the eye
ing of the May festival. These two
plays are hilarious one-act comedies
both dealing with detectives and
very odd crimes.
The third period class will present
a murder mystery, "The Solution,"
involving a newspaper reporter. The
six people who are attending a din
ner party suddenly find one of their
number apparently dead from an
unknown cause. A storm has ren
dered the electrical and telephone
apparatus of the house useless. Lew,
the young columnist, takes charge
and attempts to unravel the mys
tery by logical deduction. But a
strange man appears to complicate
the situation with his irrational re
marks. "The Inkslingers' is presented by
the fifth period class and is based
on an assumption of each of four
writers, all writing different styles
of stories, each thinks that a studio
has stolen his idea for use in a
picture now in production, coinci
dentally, they all pick the same day
to try to get evidence in order to
lodge the same complaint at the
same studio. On that particular day
the scenario of the picture in ques
tion has disappeared and the studio
is in an uproar. Everyone blames
everyone else and four eccentric
writers, darting about at unexpected
moments in search of evidence, don't
help matters any. A detective is
hired and a reward offered. Execu
tives decide that on no account
must the star, a temperamental Ger
man actress, learn that the scenario
has disappeared. The four writers
suspect each other and then what a
mess results.
The characters of "The Solution"
are as follows: Jane, Isabell Mc
Ferrin; Professor Marian Jordan,
Mildred McClintock; Clara, Mary
Daly; Marian, Anna Marie; Profes
sor John Holton, Dean Gilmart; Lew,
Lura Stephens; the strange man,
Jackson Cantwell; 1111, Don Evans;
two policemen, Harry O'Donnell and
Francis Bailey.
The cast of the "Inkslinger" is
as follows: Miss O'Neill, Mary El
eanor Florence; Max Marshall, Dub

guest of Ruth Green, Friday.
A large number of the students
attended the free dance at lone, Sat
urday. Modes of the Day
Kingsley Chapin and Lib Healy
looked like two co-eds the, first of
the week in their sport suits. King
sley's cardigan jacket was blue
striped. With it she wore a dusty
blue skirt. Lib's cardigan jacket was
plaid in pastel colors. With it she
wore a dusty rose skit.
Arleen Noble wore a dusty blue
spun rayon princess dress. The
front was interesting with its rows
of tucks.
Wilma Beymer wore a blue flan
nel dress with a bustle bow in back,
The dainty lace collar and cuffs
worn with it made a very chic cos
tume.
Miss Doughty's plaid shirt waist
dress of pastel colors received many
an admiring glance. The colors were
rose, green, blue and grey.
Fashion notes observed while at
La Grande:
Snoods worn with everything,
They are available in all colors.
Spectator pumps were the favor
ite dress shoe coming in white trim
med with either black brown or
blue.
Dusty rose and blue seemed to
be the favorite colors for dresses
and suits. They were won with
sheer blouses of white. Sheers were
also favorite in rose, blue and peach,
Saddles seem to be the short
shoe favorite again this year. A
different variety comes with the tie
on the side rather than in front.
The anklets play a big part in
the sport cortume this spring. They
are available in all pastel shades to
match every costume.
