STUDENTS ARE ON THE AIR This year the speech students are responsible for recording a weekly radio program. Each student is required to hand in a radio story. These stories are care- fully edited and recorded. The main recorder for Hemingford High School is senior speech student Jerry Kiester. Above he is shown in one of his many sessions of preparing the radio program for its broadcast over KCOW radio on Tuesday afternoon at 4:30. There are times when they encounter problems; but overall the speech class is quite successful in completing the program for Hemingford High School. One of many radio stories that are covered by senior speech students is the presentation given by State Patrol- man, Paul Manley. He explained what to do in case of a robbery or an accident. The junior students also attended. Fol- lowing the presentation, Mr. Manley an- swered any of the questions which the students who were interested desired to ask. 28

Although learning the long lines of a dra- matic play is a hard job, the play could not go on if it weren’t for the stage and make-up crews putting forth much time and effort. The stage crew arranges the stage setting, paints the flats, sweeps, hangs and focuses the lighting, smoothes the rough edges, and makes sure that all borrowed furniture is re- turned. The make-up crew practices on each other, or on members of the stage crew, as the pic- ture to the left shows. The main goal of the make-up crew is to apply make-up evenly and effectively. They have the responsibility of making teen-age actors and actresses look as though they are much older. Mr. Lyle Fodnes has devoted much of his time to the direction of three plays cast this year. The dramatics club presented them to the students in afternoon matinees, and to the public in evening performances. STARS ARE BORN Kenny Hennings sits very impatiently as Peggy Moeller and Ruth Gresens practice applying stage make-up. Mike Baer, Denice Pipitt, and Rick Benda are rehearsing attentively for the open- ing night of the play, Mr. Angel”. Jerry Kiester practices his part in a dramatic scene, or is he merely asleep on the job? 30
