THE SECOND ROUND of polio immunization will be given at Milner-Rosenwald Academy on Wednesday, May 22, beginning at 9 a.m. All parents are strongly urged to make sure that their Brevard County Schools Hold Choral Festival days with the rehearsals of The Charming Intruder, for presen tation tonight by the Dramatics Committee of the Booker T.

Washington High School of Dunnellon. This new play was written by Charles George, who is the author of nearly 100 plays. Mr. George has followed, in this new play, the mood of the modern play. He has his play full of characters that one might meet in every day life.

The play is so realistically written that the audience will live this story as well as the actors who portray it. It is chock full of human situations and peppy lines that will rock the audience with laughter. THE TLAYERS HAVE been selected with care, and, according to William E. Jackson, director of the players, each member of the cast is ideally suited to his or her role. Dramatic acting and characterization will be offered by Annie Lee Goens in the role of lovable Grandma Little.

Grandma is just a little old-fashioned about certain things, but the "charming intruder," in the person of Priscilla San derson, portrayed by Joretha Baker, changes Grandma's ideas a great deal before the happy conclusion of this play. THIS PLAY is proof that a play does not have to contain anything suggestive to be en tertaining. It will interest you from the rise of the first curtain and is a play for all ages. Children, take your parents. Parents, take your children.
