"BAB, A SUB-DEB" I§ TITLE OF SENIOR PLAY New Trier Dramatic Group to Give Edward Childs Carpen- ter Production June 1-2 By M. B. The ever-popular theme the seventeen-year-old is familiar to every- one. It was Booth Tarkington's sym- pathy and appreciation for this often misunderstood individual that produced the novel, "Seventeen." Mary Roberts Rinehart has handled a number of incidents in the natural life of a cer- tain Miss Barbara Archibald in much the same tone as Tarkington treated Mr. William Baxter. The New Trier Senior play this year is a dramatiza- tion by Edward Childs Carpenter of the book, "Bab: A Sub-Deb." The story swings around this young person, who so violently objects to having people refuse to recognize her advanced years--although she is seven- teen years and eleven days old at the time of the first' act, she is willing at any time to imply unblushingly that she has seen the mature age of eighteen some time ago. An epidemic of measles is the reason that Bab's school was closed two weeks earlier than usual. She bounds into the mid-. dle of a quiet, orderly family, with enthusiasms and ideas that are the cause of several predicaments in the comparatively short course of three weeks. of Bab's Troubles Bab, as the sub-debutante sister of the rather sophisticated Leila, has al- ways been "denied the society of the other sex." Bab is regarded by Leila and her parents as a mere child until 'the momentous day she arrives home and startles the family with the news that the "divine passion has not en- tirely passed her by." This is some- thing of an implication in itself, and, taunted by Leila, who suspects that she only wants to impress her family, she decides to get herself a romance. The autograph and picture of a hand- some, if strange (to Bab) lover, help matters along. Love letters addressed to a Mr. Harold Valentine--Bab thought the name very clever to have been invented entirely by herseli-- are at least making a dent in her parents' curiosity. But...! Suddenly one day the supposedly fictitious Mr. Harold Valentine enters in actual flesh and blood! And then complications set in for the bewildered Bab. Select Two Casts There are two casts for this play, both of which are composed entirely of Seniors. "Bab" will be given the evenings of June 1 and 2. North Shore Musical Group to Present Concert June 4 The North Shore Musical society will give its annual concert Monday, evening, June 4, at the Wilmette Woman's club at 8:15 o'clock. The event is open to the public without charge. The artists who will give the pro gram are Electa Austin, pianist; Ann Hathaway, violinist; a trio composed of Eugenia McShane, pianist, Bertha Dubbs, violinist, and Estelle Swigart, "cellist; Dorothy Cordts, contralto, and Olive Ahara and Frances Copthorne, sopranos. Mrs. R. F. Linn, Jr., of 310 Myrtle street, entertained on May 11, at luncheon at her home in honor of her guest, Mrs. George Trayser of New York.
