sister, thespian revive glee, dramatic clubs lrregularly, songsters and actors have dis- played quite an array of talent on the BE scene. Several attempts have been made to re-organize successful Glee and Dramatic Clubs. In January, 1944, the Glee Club be- came for a time a part of BEHS but was dis- continued in 1956 for lack of a director. lt is interesting to note that under the direction of Father William Croghan, presently the school's principal, the play Stardust by Walter Kerr was presented in 1949. This year the correct formula came to the forefcapable directors plus willing students equal successful clubs. Both groups made their initial bows in a joint production of the Can- ticle of the Nativity. Sister DeNeri, in a matter of weeks, formed a Glee Club. ln this same span of time, Mr. Louis DiLalla organized the Dramatic Club. vt TRYOUTS FOR MISSISSIPPI MELODY finds Mary Ann Rourke striking an eye-catching pose and being cheered on by Regina Qualey, Virginia Keating, Mary Jane Tezza, and Margie Schachte. ENJOYABLE PRACTICE SESSIONS add to the fun of group participation in a school-sponsored show. Varied voices blend as Mr. Di Lallo takes notes. l x, For the school's musical production of Mis- sissippi Melody quite an array of talent was needed: vocalists, dancers, and actors. To the first tryout for this amusing story of the incidents in Tom Sawyer's life came many hopeful and ambitious students. Some quite timid at first yet eager for the excitement ofthe stage. Voices of every pitch and every quality were tested both to the amazement and amuse- ment of the director Mr. DiLalla. Second try- outs were the real test. At this tryout the speaking quality of po- tential's voices were scrutinized. Joe Wein- rich and Mike Lowry earned the parts of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn respectively. This musical by Charles George was received with great enthusiasm in Memminger Auditorium on May 5. INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION is given to Annette Buero as she performs before Mr. Di lallo, who will direct the musical for which she was accepted. Theresa Sturcken supplied the music and the interested onlooker is James Bunch.
