Each role an example of amateur perfection, the entire cast of the sen ior class play, held In the high school auditorium last night, combined to turn in what the capacity house ex claimed an exceptional high school production of Eugene Hafere comedy in three acta, "Take My Advice." Well cast characters featured the performance, which was supported by each of the players with like abil ity, and given proper emphasis by the acting of the leads, who stood out as excellent examples of high school talent. The play was well rounded out In every detail and weak spots were conspicuous by their ab sence. The most Important and most dif ficult role was well taken care of by Luclan Clement, as Bob Mannlon, a striving newspaper editor, held In obeyance to the will of his creditor, a dominating politician, John war- grim, controlling the town of Eureka through the medium of Mannion's paper. Clement's portrayal of the helpless editor was a highlight of the play, and formed a nucleus for the per formances of the rest of the characters. He was supported In the lead by Jean Qulsenberry, who turned In a noteworthy portrayal of Peggy Acton, niece of the dominating politician, and centered the feminine charac terizations. It was Peggy who gave the (2000 to Mannlon that enabled him to pay off his debt in time to reverse the situation and ruin the plans of the dictatorial Wargrlm. BUI Prentice, as the politician, step ped into the role with Just the proper type of gruff assurance to provide necessary vlllalnry to the plot. The humor of the play was sup plied In good measure by a quartet of characters whose comedy work centered around the activity of Jimmy Samson, a breezy salesman whose business, in representing a city cor poration was waking up towns such as Eureka, and rushing their pros perity. The part of Samson was clev erly portrayed by Bob Sherwood, who put across the whole idea with a personality -plus characterization en- Make Your Own Save Money BUY SHERWIN-WILLLIAMS BAND DIP and BANDS AT THE "YOUR SEEDSMEN SINCE 1910 - 1 1 CUT YOUR SUMMER OIL SPRAY BILL IN HALF Use S- W Summer Mulsion MOST emulsions require 1 gallon to each 100 gallon, of water to kill Codling Moth eggi.

Adding S-W Summer Mulsion to this spray prevents the eggs from hatching. You already have a fated cost for labor in applica tion of a Lead Arsenate spray so adding S-W Summer Mulsion is a remarkably Inexpensive item In your worm control program. Two of the most Important factors in Summer Oil sprays are, the safety to fruit and foliage and the effect upon the removal of the spray residue. Where necessary to make several oil applica tions during the season, S-W Summer Mulsion Light may be used without apparent Interference with the normal sire or color of the fruit and without complicating the residue removal problem. By actual orchard practice of many years, as well as insectary tests, it has been proven that Sherwin-Williams' Summer Mulsion Light is as effective as Medium Oils as an ovicide when used at K gallon to 100 gallons of water. titling him to a large share of ac claim. The part of the town philosopher. Jud Fen ton, a shiftless soul with a good share of pithy wit, was done fine Justice by Galen Knox. Knox entered the role with an ease that speaks well for his dramatic talent. He was the agent through whom Peggy loaned the editor money to pay his debt to Wargrlm. Mrs. Nelson-uodd, president of the Uplift society, was characterized by Helen Crane, In s well-acted per formance, the role furnishing the tar get for most of shiftless Jud's witticisms. Vlrgy Mannlon, Bob's sister, was characterised by Suzette Stennett, who was completely at home during the entire performance, and added clever touches of humor to the al ready amusing situations arising around the breezy actions of the business-rusher, Jimmy Samson, her opposite. The haughty fiancee of Bob Man nlon, Marcla, daughter of John War grlm, was played by Margarlte Boyle, whose clever work of driving her erstwhile suitor rounded out the per formance and provided an extra touch of good acting. The play was climaxed with Man nlon accepting the loan which would free him from the clutches of John WSrgrlm. The prosperity rushing project of Jimmy Samson was under way and together with an extra edi tion of Mannion's paper, the down fall of the ruling politician was brought about and Mannlon left free to win the hand of Peggy Acton, as tbe curtain went down amid the optimism of Samson's new business era. The production was directed In its entirety by Miss Doris Baler, In structor In English and drama coach. and its splendid casting may be at tributed to her, as well as a good share of the success of the play Itself. Newsboys who appeared on thu stage were Joe McKec, Bob Gall, Fred Beck, Charles Coffin and Harry Stan ley. The orchestra rendered selections be fore the curtain and between acts, and was directed by Wilson Walt. Others who aided In the production were: Student assistant director, Evelyn Leonard; property manager, Dick Re urn; lighting, Donald Stlnson; scenery and posters, Miss Louise Hoi lenbeck, Paul Smith and art classes; construction, h.

The county court and county offi cials held a conference Wednesday and discussed the status, of the bud get for the purpose of keeping within the same for the year. A recent audit by E. M.
