ad May 8, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 13 "POLLY WITH A PAST" IS N. T. SENIOR PLAY Fourth Year Students at High School Rehearsing for Per- formance, May 29 (Contributed) New Trier's dramatic department has enough vim, courage and skill for a school many times its size. In spite of the fact that the entire high school is all agog with excitement over prep- arations for the pageant, the senior class is not allowing anyone to over- look the fact that they have begun enthusiastic rehearsing on their annual class play. It seems to be rather traditional tnat the cast of this play, which is always the final play of the season, shall be made up entirely, if possible, of seniors. So it is this year. Determined not to let the glory of the pageant overshadow their play, the seniors are already working up fine publicity. They have an excellent drama in which to display the talents of their classmates, too. The dramatic coaches have selected that corking good comedy, "Polly With a Past," written in three acts, by George Mid- dleton and Guy Bolton. The play is to be presented one night only, Saturday, May 29, so that the people chosen for the cast have only three weeks, or less, in which to whip the comedy into perfect form, under the direction of G. Van Kirk. With such an able coach, and the spirited cast which has been chosen, this feat is entirely possible. Indeed, as are all New Trier productions, the senior play promises already, judging by the first rehearsal, to come as near to perfection as is possible for any amateur group to come. Not to be outdone dramatically by any preceed- ing class, this group of "peppy" seniors vow to surpass any drama heretofore presented at New Trier by New Trierites, and certainly bid fair to accomplish their object. "Polly With a Past" will be a huge success, no doubt, for it is literally crammed with good lines. There are twelve characters in the cast, eleven of which might be deemed the leads, so good are their roles, the twelfth supplying atmosphere, which may sound very light and inconsequential but is decidedly and absolutely neces- sary, nevertheless. Mr. and Mrs. D. H. Ellsworth are again at their residence, 460 Cedar street, after two months in the South. They returned by way of Washington.
