In the followmg pages we have attempted to
present a storv of our liVes as students of Uniwrsity

High.

\Ve do not regard this hook as a retord of our
deeds but as an expression of our dreams. Soon,
our class, like the many which have gone before Us,
will he looked upon :15 alumni, :md the things we
have done will he called ”tradition." \Ve hope that
those who come after us will take up the thread
where We leave it, and wezu'e our ideals into :1
structure such :15 we had planned, remembering
during the weaving the hzisic principles which make

an ideal school.

SENIORS PROVE

“ T011 Can’t Talk) It W 11/1 Tau”

To say that the Senior play “YOU CAN’T
TAKIC IT \VITH YOL” was funny is a mas—
terpiece of understatement.

It was the most

ridiculously side—splitting farce ever written.

b

The story of the play was very unusual. The
home of Martin Vanderhof (Don Hatton) is
described by the author as around the corner
from Columbia University, but the seniors advise
against a search for it. The room into which
we are ushered as the play opens is what is cus—
tomarily described as a living room, but in this
house it is something of an entirely different sort.
Here meals are eaten, plays written, snakes col-
lected, ballet steps practiced, a miniature organ
played, fireworks manufactured, printing presses
operatediif there were room there would prob-
ably be ice skating. This is a home where you
do as you like and no questions asked.

The brood, presided over by Grandfather
Vanderhof, who for some years now has refused,
on very sensible grounds, to pay his income tax,
is very unusual.

Grandfather has long ago re—
c :3

tired from business in order to seek ha )piness in

attending commencements, visiting zoos, and
collecting snakes and stamps. All the members

of his household have hobbies of their own and
practice the gospel of relaxation, which he
preaches. His daughter, Penny Sycamore (Leila
Sherman), has abandoned paintingr for playwrit-
ing because eight years ago a typewriter was de-
livered by mistake to the Sycamore’s bedlam.
Her husband, Mr. Sycamore (Sam Strother),
is as vague as she is. His hobby is making boats
and skyscrapers with a mechano set, and mak—
ing firecrackers in the basement with the iceman
Mr. De Pinna (John Cooke), who came to the

house years ago and never went home.

Nlrs. Sycamore has tWo daughters, one of
them, Essie (Connie Young), is a candy-cook—
ing gal who thinks of herself as a ballerina and
is always taking dancing lessons from a Russian

Mr. Kolenkhov (Benham Sims).

She is mar—

:G

ried to a crack—brained fellow (Powell Alves)
who divides his time between playing the organ
and printing cheery little messages which urge
people to blow up the Supreme Court and dyna—
mite the Capitol. The duckling in Mrs. Syca—
more’s bunch is her younger daughter Alice
(Betty Behlen), a perfectly sane girl, who has
fallen in love with her rich boss’ son, Tony
Kirby (John Nichols). How wealthy
Kirbys (Joyce McCarthy and Jimmy \Venne—
ker) are introduced to, and then won over by

the

the deranged Sycamores, is the plot of YOU
CAN’T TAKE IT \VITH YOU.

Add to this basic situation two uncommonly
droll Negro servants, Reba (Darnall Dugan)
and Donald (Charles Utter), who are said to
be in love, a drunken actress, Gay \Vellington
(Peggy Corum), a Russian Grand Duchess,
()lga Katrina (Emily the
Revenue Collector, Myrtle Henderson (June
Sandusky) and the three government agents

Barron), Internal

(George “rombwell, Powell 'l‘aylor, and Hade
\Vharton) and you may have some vague con-
ception of how gorgeously goofy is the play that

the seniors are presenting.

The Prompter’s (Charlotte Vanl)eren) job
was just that, a job, in a play like this, because

the cast was just about as mixed up as she was,
trying to follow this slightly confusing plot. Nlr.

Kellam Prickett was the instructor charged with
teaching the students their parts and seeing that
the only confusion was that called for by the
script.

All the seniors did a good job working on
the play and they appreciate the help of the Beta
Club, who helped them build the set.

I’m not sayingT that all of our Senior Class
will grow up to be Vanderhofs but you must
admit that from seeing some of the acting cer-
tain members did look at home in their mad

atmosphere.
