AN ACE lN THE SOCK is being sneaked into play by Vic Cuiffo, Dennis Boyd, apparently un- aware of Victor's antics, is waiting for his play. dramatic duo show finesse in card scene AHA AN EXTRA ACE bellows Dennis. You no count cheater, I have four in my hand. Vic looks petrified in fear of Dennis's next move. Both these boys are products of Mr. DiLaIla's dramatics class. To add a little extra flavor to BE's curriculum, two much-needed courses dramatics and pub- lic speaking, were added this year. The dramatics class proved to be a mile- stone in the school's history. Under the able direction of Mr. Louis Di Lalla the students emoted, performed and acquired the basic rules of acting. Although public speaking courses were of- fered in 1950 by Mr. Traynor Ferillo and in T953-54 by Rev. Dennis J. McKevlin, they were new and different to Bishop Englanders of the class of '6O. For the first time, they learned to talk before an audience unselfconsciously. The teachers, especially the English teachers, noticed the transfer of training from these two courses. Many of these hitherto speech shy students proved to be much more at ease when speaking in front of their peers-an invaluable asset resulting from this addition to the up-to- date BE curriculum.
