'1 ,'f j 0 ':'v 7 Eramatir Gllnh liarly last year a few interested in dramatics formed the St. john's Dramatic Club and elected the following oliicers: R. O. James ................................... ........ P resident R. ll. Mixmiox .... ..... V ice-President J. W. ICNIGIITUN ..... .... . . .................. .......... S ccrctary H. J. ANmci:w ................................................ Treasurer These otiicers with Prof. Handy, J. T. Spicknall and T. Duke formed the Executive Committee. The first play given was a three-act comedy, Fun In a Flat , and was a howling success. liveryone in the cast played their parts particularly well. Besides the cadets who exhibited their histrionic ability, four young ladies from Annapolis ably assisted, and had it not been for them, our tirst endeavor in the iield of dramatics would have been a failure. Misses Edith Woodward, Marie Brooke, Margaret Claude, Julia Douw, and with Mrs. L. T. Downes, who assisted Prof. Handy in coaching the young actors and actresses, were unani- mously elected honorary members of the Dramatic Club. These ladies worked willingly and unceasingly to make Fun In a Flat the success that it Was. This year, the Dramatic Club with the Orchestra and Glee Club presented a Christmas Farce before the holidays which was very successful. It is the hope of the present officers that the Dramatic Club will become :1 permanent organization at St. -Iohn's. HONORARY MEMBERS DRAMATIC CLUB 184
