Albemarle Players Thespians is an honorary society for the advancement of dramatic arts in secon- dary schools. This year, the Thespians, with the aid of the Albemarle Players, celebrated the tenth anniversary of Thes- pian Troope 500 with a banquet. The Al- bemarle Players were also quite busy with “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown”, which was presented in November. The Players host other ac- tivities in the Spring. These include a night of one act plays and a spring produc- tion. fy W rj ' yj . m j W Li W Albemarle Players, underclassmen, first row: J. Respess, E. Silverman, A. Hodge, A. McDermott, M. Amato, C.

Spanish Club In order to aid the club members in gaining a greater insight of the Hispanic culture, the Spanish Club has invited speakers from the Hispanic nations. Also through the use of visual materials in the form of slides and films, the club has achieved its goals. Under the direction of Miss Brubaker, Mrs. Crover, and Mrs. Lane, a trip to Washington, D.C. was planned. This trip was intended to serve as a cultural experience for the club.

Several club members attended the State Latin Convention in Roanoke. Everyone at the convention was aware of the Albemarle delega- tion after they placed in scholastic as well as in art contests. Other events were dinner at the Villa Capri and at- tendance to the Classical Certamen. And, as usual, the Latin banquet was held during Latin week. After making this comback, it is hopeful this club will survive. Latin, first row: K. Kindrick, J. Grinnell, D. Smith, C. Durrer. Second row: D. Deane, J. Wol- frey, R. Payne. Third row: B.

Exhibiting the qualities of true sportsmanship, the Chess Club com- peted in tournaments matching the masterminds of strategical skill and concentration. Coached by Mr. Dugan, all members attempted to im- prove their game and to succeed in making the Chess Team. The high- light of the club’s activities was ag- reed to be the double-elmination tournament which took place during the school year. The person emerging as the winner took top position in our rank of impressive chess players. Chess Team, first row: B. Huber, D. Congdon, Second row: R. Comfort, B. Drash, D. Garrison. Third row: D. Lee, J. Tremblay, A. Mosca, C. Benjamin, B. Riall. Debate Team: David Merkel, Elizabeth Tull, Cary Branch, Craig Van de Castle, Cathy Simmons. Debate Team Last year, the Debate Team did extremely well in its first year of formal competition. The negative team won the District division, while the affirmative was runner-up. This year, the team has been invited to participate in ser- veral tournaments and hopes to better last year’s record. The topic under discussion was “Resolved: that the fed- eral government should guarantee a minimum annual in- come for each family unit.” The successfulness of this team depended solely on the effort put forth by the De- bate Team members. 69
