Kid Eternity #16 (1949)

In a lighthearted twist of mistaken identity, Peachie Pitts panics when she’s cast as the lead in the school play *The Forgotten Friend*, only to realize her co-star, Stewart Lowell, is someone she’s been avoiding. As she and Beanie Brown grow increasingly anxious about the upcoming rehearsals and a sudden trip to Cedar City, a series of comical misunderstandings—sparked by a speed trap and a confused father—lead everyone on a wild chase that ends with a surprising revelation about the play’s real purpose.
