All Because of Prometheus
A Play (witliout dialogue) in
One Act.
Time: 4:30 in the morning, one
cold .January day
Scene: I^adies Hall
As the scene opens a lonelv,
blond girl is industriously labor
ing over Spanish, History and
what have you. None other than
Betty Hoyt, studious glamour
girl. W’indows break, but she is
so engrosstnl in ht-r work (Take
notice of this. Miss Bus.-wll and
Professor Schultz) that sTie pays
no attention. She gets up and
wandi-rs to the window and sees
flames leaping from the kitchen.
She screams (O. K.. then, she
only lets loose an exclamation)
ami awakens her roomie, (’ora Lib
Worsley. Betty th.n runs, awak-
(ais Marv Franws Stanley (the
flving gal) and rushes down to
mc(-t M iss Bussell. They i-xit to
wards West Dormitory. Stumey
meanwhile, jumiis from her K-d
(bet she never jumi>ed out be
fore), shakes (Jloria Barfield, but
Barfield only grunts and goes
back to sleep, ('ora Lib runs up
and down the hall, turns a couple
of somersaut and lands on her
head. Maxine Sinith ,apT>ears on
the scene, runs to the window, and
then grabs her c.i 11. Other girls
wake ui) and rnn to the front
porch yelling “fire". Trunks fly
down the stairs (y^ni know the old
exercise of throwing put your
chest, only these were trunks),
■leanne Wood throws a sho* at her
riHmimate. Marjorie Hunter, un
til she sits up in b'd and says
lazily. “1 don’t think I’ll go^ to
bn-akfast this morning”. (P. S.—
she did), .leanne grabs her letters
fn>m Atlanta, Margie grabs a pic
ture and rushes out to cx>ver the
storv. Stanley runs into Room
11, tears off a scret-n and throws
out her best suitcase. Bill Dun
can rushes up the st.eps to help
Ruby Wright. Barfield wakes up
(How could anyone sleep in this
upnmr?), grabs Hank's drum, and
starts packing her trunk. (Inci
dentally, if any strong boys would
like to move a trunk upstairs, ap
ply to Ladies Hall). Earl Bell
The camiius looks like a rum
mage sale. Nervous girls huddle
on the steps. Sparks scurry across
the lawn and mattresses begin to
burn, to say nothing of best dres
ses, sheets, and coats that were
scattered a^gtind in the excite
ment. Finally the fire is under
cfintrol. Back go the clothes,
lamps, trunks, blankets, and so
forth into the dormitory. (Goixl
thinir it's not room-checking day
Madge Ward rans around trying
to find her diary. Stamey loses
a drawer full of letters. Gei'chy
Bryan h(dps hang up clothes. .lini-
my Phillips finds that he's even
carried out things in his pwkets
(lalloway goes back to b;d. Mar
ion Plybim expresses relief that
her clotbcis are now packed. (Tiar-
lie (President) .lones, carries in
a load and yells, “At last I’m in
a girl’s dormitory”.
Incidentally, boys, the girls
think vou were all swell and that
von did a grand job. Thanks a
lot. It's just such lH>ys that make
America the fine place that it is.
RED CROSS PARTY
IS GREAT SUCCESS
If it was for no Iietter reason
than to prove that a fire could not
destroy the spirit of “The Red
(’ross Giver”, the party on .lan-
uary 18 was a big success. The
spirit i>f the basketball teams, the
boxers, and the stuilents at the
party was t-o he commended. The
tragedy of Saturday morning was
absent and everyone had a gool
time. All were irlad to give to an
organization that was reprwented
as the Red Cross was on that i>—
casion.
As for the basketball game, it
was evident that the players en-
joyi-d it as much as the sup|Kirters
in the stands. The sfiore only em
phasized the fact that the teams
were evenlv matched, t(w even,
jM'rhaps. From the sidelines it
seemed that tJbe outcome of the
boxing match was “Hayes and
Haygood” winners, and “Tex’ the
victim.
If you want to know about the ^
partv, just 9sk someone who went.
The Day Students were the spon
sor and the orchestra was really in
