Senior Play Impresses Middletown High With If I Only Had a Million

The Middletown High School senior class staged If I Only Had a Million at the State Armory Friday before about 120. Ted Sminks and Mary Connell received top marks for their reading parts while the high school orchestra provided music and Sterling's orchestra supplied dancing tunes. The two-act comedy wove social satire and philosophy as characters including Mrs Smith, Mr Smith, Catherine, Mertens, and Lord Rainscourt navigated ambition, romance, and a shifting social ladder amid warnings and a final twist.
