Creative Speech, Puppets At the beginning of the school year, creative speech class members cut out newspaper clippings and read them over tape recorders to make tape recordings of radio programs, complete with commercials. Next came the introduction of puppeteering. Each student made his own puppets and clothes for them. Then began rehearsals for the puppet shows which class members would put on at grammar schools in the district. The schools visited by the puppeteers from Pacifica were Bay Point, Shore Acres, Arn- brose, and Bell Air. Shows presented were Little Red Riding Hoodfi Cinderella,', 'LThe Three Bearsf' and The Prince Who Turned into a Bear. Leading roles were taken by Rita Marlow fLittle Red Riding Hoodj, Leonard Essley fBad Wolf and the Princej , Nancy Sorrick LCinderellaJ , Wanda Boyd CBaby Bearj , Florence Wheaton tGoldilocksj , Mary Anna Smith fthe Prince who was turned into a bearfl , and Rosemary Carlisle fthe courierj . Each student had to memorize his part. The class then spent some time with pantomimes. This was to get them started into story telling, because they were preparing to go to the grammar schools to tell the students stories. These puppets operated by Pacifica students delighted students at several district grammar schools.
