The play, a three-act comedy, had the following characters: Jack Cox and Mancil Kilgore, in reality quite good friends, portray the roles of two deadly enemies, Amos Judkins and Elias Larrabee. In the precarious position as me diator between the two is the old horse doctor, Doc Lacey, wh~sr part is taken by Alfred Black wood. Dora Leming portrays Mar tha, the wife of Amos. Alice Jud kins and Larry Larrabee are in love and there seems no solution to their problem because of the enmity of their parents. Mare a Mullendore and J. P. Toler r>la" the parts of the young lovers. The Medranas, Rcse and Joe, who op erate a combination bus statio" and hot dog stand, provide an ex citing situation. Fsther Jollv and Maurice Corbell play the role rf the Medranas. The moving spirit in the whole play, is Alice's younger sister- Sally, who is played by Louisr Drummond. She has a way of us ing her friend, Barry, played bv Billy Lee, to attempt a reconcilia tion between Mr. Larrabee and Mr Judkins. Sally has two friends Janie and Angle, whese parts are taken by Bettie Lee Rush and Harmony Walker. Janie is really quite a good friend, but Angie ir onlv a thoughtless flirt. The class expressed the feelm" that ro matter how gord a p'av is. it must have a receptive audi ence. Therefore thev feel that t.V success of their play was du' mainlv to the audience.
