Seniors Play To Full Houses Even though “You Can’t Take It With You” is dated with reference to WPA, Eleanor Roosevelt, and “The Good Earth”, it is still lots of fun. The High School Seniors, ably directed by Joe Jones, romped through it and gave a great deal of entertainment to two packed houses Thursday and Fridty. The family is one in which everyone does just what he wants to do. Penny Sycamore, as played by JoAnn Ganshorn, was a sweet eccentric who had been trying to write a play ever since someone left a typewriter at her house by mistake. Her daughter, Essie, a dancer of little talent, was done well by Betty Hawley, who has considerable talent, and her husband Ed was well portrayed by Jim Copeland. Kenny Wyman did a fine job as Grandpa, arid Fred Jensen w'as extremely funny as Mr. DePinna, the iceman who had just stayed on. Paul Sycamore, the father who manufactured fireworks in the basement and played with an Erector Set, was ably played by Denny Miller, and Ron Foeckler, possibly the most professional of the cast, and attractive Diane Meyer did nicely as the two more normal characters. Two who stole the show every time they appeared were Wayne Berger and Jenny Price as Donald and Rheba, both of whom added sparkle to the proceedings.

Garry Golden played the part of the Russian dancing instructor, whose comment “Confidentially, it slinks”, has become a line incorporated into our vernacular. Debbie Sinclair was appropriately regal as the Grand Duchess now working at Childs, and we got a kick out of Shirley Ganshorn, who had a problem with the bottle, brought to a crisis by the family’s pet snakes. Randy Best added dignity as the poor harried internal revenue man I who had to tangle with Grandpa, j and the dignified Kirby in-laws 1 were well done by Mike Stump and Carol Disber. Looking like something out of ‘ The Untouchables” were Larry Sheets, Ted Martindale. and Dale Tobias as the government who raided the place to bring the second act to a rousing conclusion. I Mr. Stutzman’s building trades class did an excellent job Qn the set, and the properties committee should be congratulated for aei cumulating all the odd items needed in this strange household. The whole evening was a very ! pleasant one and the Kaufman and Hart play of the thirties was still delightful. LETTER FROM AFRICA This past Friday the J. LI. Millers received a letter from their son, who is on his first missionary tour in Natal, Africa. In the letter he stated that he had met Mr. and Mrs. Ray Chamberlain, from Pennsylvania, who had a daughter living in Nappanee. The daughter is Mrs. Betty Rosentrater, so this last Sun day, Mrs. Rosentrater and the children called on Mr. and Mrs. Miller.

NATIONAL POSTURE WEEK How’s your postural fitness? This question is being asked by your ocal member of the Indiana State Chiropractic Asso. this week throughout Indiana and Nappanee. The week of May 1-7 has been des- ' ignated by the American Chiropractic Association as National Correct Posture Week. One of the objectives of National Correct Posture Week, is the development of good postural habits among school children. Exercise is one of the key factors in maintaining correct posture. You improve your posture by building strong muscles which keep your back and shoulders in proper balance. The association points out that if children develop good postural habits now, they will avoid trouble later as adults. Poor posture can | eventually lead to curvature of the spine, or may result in a scoliosis.

This year there is a large group 2nd District County Commissioner alone. Candidates have apparently been advised to make a call on the local publisher. This they have been doing —a steady stream of them. On Wednesday, your local pub lisher is in the back shop, usually up to his elbows in ink. This is the day most political aspirants seem to prefer to come to Nappanee. They ask at the front desk to see the editor or the publisher, and their faces drop when the editor of the Advance-News finally emerges from the back shop. One

even said, “No, I asked to see the publisher.” There are interesting statistics one can collect on candidates. Most oi them you can't use. For example this year among some 30 candidates who have been in, three have bad breath, two chew gum. one thought he was in Wakarusa' and four smoke big black cigars. Their messages are much the same. They have a little bit of off-the-record gossip about one of

. their opponents, or they are hopc- ; fill that the front page of the next Advance-News will be devoted to “a little plug” for t-l&m. The greedy old publisher wondering if they’re planning an ad and suddenly gets quite cool and busy when, as one candidate said, the man states, “We’re going to spend lots of money on television next week.”, A local editor gets a better chance to know something about

the candidates than does the average voter. Sometimes it would be better if he knew less. Tor example, one aspirant burned a hole in the editor’s desk with his cigar. He won't get the Advance-News' vote' Men grow trees for profit, but usually reserve expressions of awe lor those that grow wild. Motion is the biggest part of promotion.
