All-High School play
"One Foot In Heaven" by Hartzell Spence will be presented as an all-school play November 15, at 8 o'clock by senior high school students, Lois Klisart is director.

The play concerns a minister who takes over a run down church with a small warring congregation; trial and tribulations of his family and himself with various prejudiced parishioners, and the final success in building up the parish. This play is humorous but yet it has a very worth while theme.
