Back in the days when cars knew nothing of - the street-lined version , when the movies were silent, and when they danced the Charleston instead of the Lambeth Walk , twenty characters, eager to acquire what knowledge they could from their directors, entered the door of this great hall of learning to play their part i n the production, The Thirteen Pillars of Knowledge . Some of those players have forsaken their roles to take a part in a similar performance elsewhere. But the cast has taken on new players from time to time and when the curtain comes down, this Hay, on the fourth scene of the see- -cl act, they can boast of having the largest cast over to finish a production in West Point High School. On a September morning in 1C2S, ftuth Margaret Sass, Npr.ith, I vey S Marian Simonson, Dayton Iron St. Clair, Ear-zman, Doris Flum-rren Paul, Maxine Walter ' Crabtreo, Dewald, Warren Gladyce Benne, Vossberg,•Edward Wag-Jean Kautz, Joan Kautz, her with several oth-kipped along a path, they ■ have trod many since, to begin to their lines and ac- tions for the first act of perhaps their greatest feat. Graduation from the eighth grade marked the end of the first act of nine scenes, and after a brief intermission, the cast, now composed of about sixty members, began work on the second act of their production. During the scenes of this set, some of the players did outstanding pieces of work as leaders; others were excellent followers. This last act was perhaps the hardest to present, no longer was there the usual routine of the first act. There were honors to strive for; occasionally some of the company in their spare moments illustrated what the” hac accomplished by presorting plays, minstrels, musicals, a. n d readings. Others spent their extra ti: editing a school paper. All of them did their cart in cutting out the '30 CADET. This spring- the company will separate, and in years to como they will recoil the roles which they portrayed in their initirl production, each one of the sixt;r thinking how necessary his efforts were, yet, minor, in comparison to what he has accomplished since. 'Fellow Players, if this be history, let's make more of it.
