A performance needs more than a cast, however. It needs help from the sidelines. Had it not been for the efficiency and cooperation of the business staff and stage crew, the play could not have been the success that it was. The most important role of all, that of director, was played by Mrs. Zulauf. Her undy- ing patience and efforts will long be remembered as the factors which made Dear Ruthi' another example of the spirit of '51. Business Managers Publicity . . Stage Settings . Prompter .

This year's play, a three- act comedy by Norman Krasna entitled Dear Ruthv, was a smash hit on Broadway, and was later made into a motion picture. The old saying has been If the last dress rehearsal is discouraging, you can be assured of a successful opening nightf' This was true in our case. From the applause and response of the audience on opening night, we knew the play was a success.

Freshman Reception Tom Thomas and Bill Zito having been chosen masters of ceremonies, the poor' fresh- men felt doomed. Their time to be initiated into their four years of high school had come. The freshmen all sat very still while waiting for their turn to be called upon to go through their diabolic performance. With jokes and many unexpected events, the reception went off with a real bang- especially with four young ladies counting squares of toilet paper and calling, N ow is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their countryf at the end of every fifteen sheets. After the reception was over the seniors served refreshments consisting of sweet cider, cookies, and doughnuts. The evening finally ended with a record dance-to which one girl brought a chicken which she had been assigned to get. The seniors wish to give their whole-hearted thanks to the faculty, the parents, and the courageous members of the freshman class for their help in making this a most success- ful night. is . sf -f l
