The National Thespian Society helps students not only in the actinq part of a play, but with lighting, sound effects, and props. A student interested in acting can get experience and expert advice. The success of Troupe 700 was at- tributed largely to Mrs. Elizabeth Sutherland, who was again the Thes- pian sponsor. Without her able assist- ance the club could not have done the many things that are involved in a suc- cessful year. l 2 n'. -Yr' it t V it . r 4lf' 1t 9 55 .5,,,A!

t uu- ,MV u N rv. e 9 The Anchorage High School Troupe 700 of the National Thespian Society was first started in 1946. Since then it has been active, giving a play each year. One of the major aims of the group is to promote interest in drama. After earning a minimum of ten points a student is eligible to become a Thespian. These points' may be earned in several ways. A few of these ways are makeup, selling, advertising, working on production or taking a role in the play itself. Each year formal and informal initi- ations are held for those with the necessary ten points. -f-S THESPIAN 4CtrcleJ Pictured from top to bot- tom are Glen Briggs, Temple Mar- tin, Anne Cannon, and Nancy See, Thesplan officers. fk Murphy Clark, Richard Reeve, Bsko Cate, and June Bowdish are seen during Thespian informal initiation. i I . lf. 1 QQ!-l 5+ Mn A Choosing the Thespian play are Norma Griffith, Carlene Daly, Murphy Clark, Kerry Gough, and Temple Martin.
