Those who at- tended the performance will agree that it was well worth the 50c spent on the tickets. "A Night in an Inn," a one-act mys- tery play by Lord Dunsany, was presented first. The parts of the four Englishmen were well taken by Sam Moore, Towner Webster, Ed Baumann and Steve Harwood. Ed in particular did some acting worth comment. As Mrs. Cotton, of the New Trier faculty, was heard to say, "It was one of the most professional amateur plays ever put on at New Trier." Then came the Gilbert and Sullivan opera "Trial by Jury." Certainly the bridesmaids were the most out- standing characters. Who would ever think that there were such re- markable voices among the masculine members of the faculty? And Stan Sherman dressed as the bride in a white satin gown, white tulle veil, and silver slippers made a lovely girl Clifton Darling carried off the part of the "snob" defendant with just the right amount of hard-hearted cruelty; and Johnny West made a very noble figure as the judge. Bill Gibson, at- torney for the bride, and Harold Spinney, the usher, also deserve mention. YALE FILMS SHOWN Friday, March 18, another of the group of Yale films was shown in the auditorium of the New Trier High school. This film was called the "Eve of the Revolution," and showed clearly the causes of the war. Several of the outstanding events were, the Boston Massacre, the Tea Party, which every American has heard of over and over and the Battle of Lexington. Monday the film depicting the Dec- laration of Independence was shown. This film was very interesting as many well know characters took part. It showed the struggle and strife the men who wanted independence went through before the vote finally be- came unanimous. These films are said to be the most correct as far as the historical side that have ever been made. ALL-DAY GUILD MEETING The Woman's guild of the Church of St. Elisabeth, Glencoe, will have an all-day meeting on Tuesday, March 29, beginning with a church service at 10:30. After the box luncheon at 12:30, the women will sew for the Easter sale they are to have on April 9. For BOOKKEEPING Income Tax Cost Accounting Investigation Corporation Accounting call Paul F.
