jwe last previous production in
which Pat and Joan “were co-starred
was also a newspaper picture, “Back
jin Circulation,’ but aside from the
similarity of background the’: new
picture has little in common ver the
‘former one.
This time Pat and Joan are both
reporters on the same paper, and
-considerable excitement is lent the
production by the depiction of their
professional exploits, but the fund“mente; there of the story—and one
Bape is full of genuine ‘heart throbs
‘; the determination of Joan, a
. wam hearted and sympathetic woman under her cynical exterior, to ac-cmplish the reform and rehabitlitalt30n of a little tough kid.
. She emcounters the kid first in the
rourse of an expose of juvenile
zamh" ing that contributes to the cof‘org of the city’s gambling boss, and
after he has been. sent to reform
=shool. she contrives to have him
paroled to thie custody of herself and
Pat, to whom she thas just been married:
Pat is not at all sympathetic with
er interest in the little tough, but
the boy’s gemuinely good qualities
eventnally win him over, though
along the way the youngster apparently reverts to his former criminal
habits.
Other actors prominent in the cast
Hesides Pat, Joan and Bobby are
Alan Baxter,,~William Davidson, Morgan Conway and Moroni Olsen. Based
on an iriginal story by Saul Elkins
and Sally Sandlin, the alternately
nelodramatic, sentimental and amu
ing screen play was written by Niven
Pusch, Lawrence’ Kimble and Lar!
Ratdwin. The production was directed by James Flood.

By JEAN MARTZ

entertained ‘by a program put on by
the Home Economics Club. The mistress of ceremonies was Sylvia Ronning, president of the climb. The first
number on the prograt Included a
solo “La Paloma’’ sung in Spanish
by Paulene Marshall, who accompanied herself with a guitar, a reading by Marilyn Lee “The Complete
Analyses of a Cold;’’ Bernice MeQuay played a piano solo, ‘“Thhe Robin’s Return;’’ Betty O’Conner sang
“Deep Purple’,
of today; a humorous poem by Jean
Martz “Lines to a Lady About to go.
Abroad for the First Time.’’ The high
spot of the girls’ part of the program was Patricia Presley’s singing
the beautiful “Indian Love Call.” As
an encore, she sang “Smoke Gets in
Your Eyes,’ Sylvia Ronning introduced Mrs. Tobias of Grass Valley,

Through Understanding.’ Mrs. Tobias is a doctor and she -was engaged

CAPS AND GOWNS
One of the issues at the high
school is still “Will the Seniors
eraduate in caps and gowns?’’ Those
opposed to it argue that the girls
look much. prettier in formals, and
stand out as individuals. They also
say that caps and gowns were first
used in colleges anid that ‘high schools
should not imitate them. Those who
wish ‘caps and gowns ‘say they are
the symbols of graduation. They
argue that the expense is too great
when parents have to buy three formal dresses as well as the expense
of other senior activities. There is
scarcely, any use for formals in this
community. Mr. Kjorlie has secured
samples of caps and gowns and a decision will soon be made.
