ENGINEERS PRESENT HHARIUUS SPRING FEVER 0 The engineers presented Spring Fever, a farce in three acts by Glenn Hughes, on November 22. Mrs. Spangler's CElaine Tarrt rooming-house at Brookfield College, is more frenzied than usual the day before Commencement. Ed Burns tBob Hallerl a chemistry major, experiments with a dynamite sub- stitute. Vic Lewis tlerry Fryl, an art student, sets up his paraphernalia in the living-room. Between explosions, Howard Brant flames Miller? types frantically to finish a zoology term paper before graduation. Lou Herron tKathleen Scotti, who likes Ed: Anne Purcell tPeggy Felgerl, Howards heart- interestf' and Vivian George tFreda Schneckt, Vic's girl all make things lively. Wlien Vic and Ed mistake Mr. Purcell tWillie Fieldsl, Anne's millionaire father, for a model, he leaves in a fury, refusing to present a science building to Brookfield. Howards Aunt Maude tloyce Albertl, discovering his predica- ment, poses as a famous zoologist to intrigue Professor Bean tByron Oswaldl. Dr. Dixon tCarl Aschlimanl, president of the College, mourns the loss of the building, so the young people put on an act to make Mr. Purcell come across . They persuade Mr. and Mrs. Purcell tMary lane Wilkiel very easily with the ruse. Aunt Maude's scheme succeeds so well that Howard gets his diploma and his girl. Miss Falls very ably directed the play with Pauline lohnson as student director. Byron Oswald was stage manager, and property managers were Wyllis Wiegman and Henry Spice. FURUM -CLUB EXGAVATES REBUTTALS 0 The Forum Club had a very successful season debating the question, Resolved: That the United States Establish An Alliance With Great Britain. ln order to raise money to pay for materials, reference books, tournament fees and transportation, they sponsored a skating party on October ll which was a great success. On December 2 and 3 the entire club attended a debating conference at Purdue University where they were given many helpful ideas on the question for debate. During the year, the six teams debated with students from the following high schools: North Side, Central, Columbia City, Huntington Township, Huntington Catholic, Concordia, Brazil, East Chicago, and Wabash. They entered several tournaments at North Side and South Side High Schools. During February the speech department and the Forum Club joined forces and initiated a declamation contest. From the twelve contestants, the four highest presented an assembly program for the school. The teachers, as judges, awarded first place to Iames McClure, whose name was placed on a silver cup which was placed in the trophy case. This declamation contest will be an annual event in future years. Officers of the club for this year were Patricia Burgoon, president: and Beth Feagles, secretary-treasurer. After Miss Varin resigned at the end of the first semester, Miss Holl became speech and debate adviser. 'ini
