FRIDAY, MAY 15, 1931. SENIOR PL4Y IS WELL PRESENTED PAGE FIVE VERNONIA EAGLE, VERNONIA, OREGON THE FEATHERHEADS By O»bom» Invites Felix to Lunch R. D. F. “Only Sally Ann,” presented by the high school senior class at the grade school auditorium Fri day, was a play difficult to give because it required portrayal character rather than lively tion, and much memorizing lines was involved. Difficult it was, however, it was very well done. Though the beginning was a trifle slow, the fault was not due to the acting but to the fact that the author had weighted the story down by explanatory dialogue. With the second act interest in creased, and the play made a de cided hit. There was not a hitch in the performance, and no con spicuous prompting. Some of the incidents were es pecially amusing, as when the haughty and scandalized aunt, re presented by Grace Condit, finds her despised niece (Luella Will iams) and the unconventional young minister (Vance Lara- more) on their kness making love, That one incident, cleverly acted, was sufficient to make the audience forget so much conver sation in which nothing in par ticular happened, and aroused curiosity in what was coming next. Another incident, wholly differ ent, was the confession of Crazy Jake, who had shot the villain and was collapsing both mentally and physically. Ben Spencer, who took the part, had but few lines to give in the play, but those few were characterized by real acting, To name the students who did well, however, would be to name them all. The play reflects great credit on the coach, Superintendent J. B. Wilkerson, on the cast, and on the senior class. The intermissions were livened by music by the Vernonia band under the direction of Ray Charlesworth, and songs by the senior girls. were business visitors in Verno Mrs. Noble Dunlap drove to and the other on politeness in Portland Friday and brought home nia Saturday. which the children vowed to keep Noble Dunlap butchered a beef her mother, Mrs. Nels Peterson, Carelessness a prisoner and always and sent it to Portland last week. to spend Mother’s Day at home say “Excuse me,” “Thank you” Mr».
