Barry Play "The Youngest" wiil be presented, Friday and Satur- day, June- 2 and 3, by the: Dramnatic cltib of New Trier 111gb school as the onnual senior play, directed by Miss Elisabeth Stanwood and Gordon Van Kirk. First offered te theater-goers in New York City in 1923;- the play, was originally known as "Poor, Richard'." Later the> title was changed te the sarcastic "God Bless Our Home," and fnally te the simple, but apt *The Youngest." Thé plot concerns the misfortunes and trials of' one Richard Winslow whos.e family treats bim i with little or no respect or,,approval. 0Of course, ýWinslow strenuously objects to such henpecking, but his efforts' to ýiir- prove matters are futile until he bias the assistance of Nanc~y Blake and aise gets contrel of the famiily purse- strings. What happens then, will be skilfully interpreted by the New Trier cast. List off Members of Caxt Virginia Smith who takes the role « talented girl promninent in înany other activitics at New Trier.
