SENIOR CLASS WILL TURN ACTOR FRIDAY Young People of George Washington High School to Give Three One-Act Plays in Competition. IN order to give the high school student a chance to act in plays and better appro uate the theater and drama as literature, the Senior class J s he George Washington high school will present three one-act plays Friday night in the auditorium. The players have been divided into three units and they will enter a ''riend’v competition to win the award of the three judges. Public schools as well as universities are becoming more and more aware of the benefits to be obtained from giving the student a chance to net in plays as well as to produce them.

It is announced in the senior program for Friday night that “it is cur wish in choosing a program of one-act plays to offer a variety of entertainment; the humorous, the whimsical, the pathetic and the sad. At the same time we are able to give *o the student an opportunity to work in plays which are highly unified in thought and spirit. Beaus' of their brevity and fine unity, he is more likely to be more successru! in sympathetically sustaining the character and mood which he is yortraying than in a play of greater length.'’ The ihree one-act plays to be presented by the seniors Friday n ■ ■ will lw “Wisdom Teeth,” by Rachel Fields; “Op’-O-Mc-Thumb.” b Frederick Fenn and Richard Price, and “Riders of the Sea,” by John Synge.
