With Greasepaint and Wig To be or not to be,'I queried Hamlet on the Elizabethan stage, but today all Iiast's dramatic- ally-minded students aim to be members of Masquers. This club, under the supervision of Cecil Ker- sten, promotes the interests of the student body in dramaties and develops skill in play interpre- tation. To be a member of this club, one must obtain one hundred points, earning them through stage-crew work or appearing in a school play. Initiations occur twice a year, in january and May. One can always identify these days by the Hail, Mighty Masqueriu echoing throughout the cor- ridors as novitiates bow to old members. Officers were XVarren Tarr, president, Ellen MASQUERS Morrison, vice-president, Phyllis Owens, secretary, Betty Landgraf, treasurer, and La Vern Williiiiias, sergeant-at-arms. Four plays were produced and presented before various audiences. They were First Dress Suit, Three's a Crowd, The Happy Journey, and Last Flight Over. Cf course, none of these plays could be pos- sible without the efforts of the stage-crew. This interesting work ranges from sewing a curtain to uluggingi' scenery around. The people behind the stage who do just as much in giving the mood of the play usually get the least credit. It is a responsibility just as much as acting. There really is no not to bev for the dra- matically-inclined students. FIRNI Row: M. Iverson, R. Ifickelberg, G. Glasson, B. Iandgraf, Ii. Morrison, NV. Tarr, I'. Owens, I.. NVilliams, C. Benty, B.
