Si(U4,K Duties and aims of the Sioux are to conduct rallies and pep campaigns, promote school spirit and cheer the boys on to victory. Members of the Sioux were selected by a popular vote of season ticket holders who are known as the “Tribe,' and the football boys, and from this group cheer-leaders were elected as follows: Margie Coble, Phillip Gardner, Nona Hawk, and Gretchen Smith. A party was given for the football squad and one was also given for the Sioux and their friends. Officers of the Sioux were Jane McCleery, President; Nona Hawk, Vice President: Jean Stockwell, Secretary; and Vala Dawn Davis, Treasurer. The music department undertook a most difficult production when they selected Victor Herbert’s light opera Sweethearts’ for their major musical activity. The opera provided valuable training for the individuals who participated and much pleasure for those who had occasion to observe this production. The plot is centered around Sylvia, the lost princess of Zilania, and the several politicians who, through her, wish to gain control of that country. After much confusion she finds her true love, Franze, who very conveniently would have been prince of Zilania had she not been found.

Boys’ glee consisted of seventeen boys who were chosen in the same manner. The two glee clubs merged and formed the choir. These groups gave a choral production, “The Changeover 1492-1942,” which portrayed the history of the United States in musical pantomine, and they also performed in several Christmas services for the student body and a number of churches. Their largest enterprise of the year was Victor Herbert's opera, “Sweethearts,” which was given several times this spring with very favorable results. Toward the latter part of the year these organizations gave an impressive concert of sacred music in which each group performed individually. During the second semester, the students took part in recitals which were given to develop interest in musical activities and to encourage soloists. GIgM. Play Who's Crazy Now?''-—Gerald Bell The scene of this hilarious comedy is laid in the reception room of the Sunny Vale Insane Asylum where a number of school teachers, who are mentally unbalanced, are trying to educate their pupils. A love story develops when the niece of the superintendent meets one of the young staff doctors but each thinks the other an inmate of the asylum and consequently this too is treated in a humorous manner. When the annual went to press the cast for “Who’s Crazy Now?” had not been chosen.

At an informal initiation in December, twenty-nine pledges were initiated into the Dramatic Club. Following this a beautiful candle light ceremony was held at the home of Miss DeLores Walker, the sponsor, at which time every one signed the pledge and took the oath. Later in the spring a banquet was held for the members and their dates. A luncheon was also given for the outgoing officers and the new executive board. At the departure of Miss Walker, Mrs. Dienst took over the organization. The officers are: President, Dick Streitwieser; Vice-President, Adele Greene; Secretary, Nona Hawk; Treasurer, Keatinge Keays; Program Chairman, Gretchen Smith; Historian, DeVere Fisher; Publicity Manager, Margie Coble. To become a member of the Indian Staff is an honor for which all students of the high school are striving. To become a staff member, tests are given in news story writing and an ability in grammar must be demonstrated. First semester only thirteen students made up the staff. At a general convocation the following editorial staff was elected: Editor-in-Chief, Henry7 Ayers; Copy Editor, Darice Conrad; Feature Editor, Jane McCleery; Sports Editor, Jack Higgins. Miss Delores Walker sponsored the paper. Darice Conrad assumed new duties at the close of the semester due to the resignation of the Editor-in-Chief, Henry Ayers.
