DRAMATIC CLUB This year the Arlington High Dramatic Chib presented for its annual production, The Ghost Train, a thriller- diller mystery comedy in three acts. The play was pre- sented Friday evening, January thirteenth, at the Junior High East auditorium. A special matinee performance was given Thursday, January twelfth, for all junior high and grammar school students. Thanks to the undying efforts of our fine director, Mrs. Sampson, The Ghost Train was a tremendous success. In March we entered the competition of the Massachu- setts Regional Drama Festival. The Drama Festival is an annual event comprised of a number of different schools each presenting in competition a one act play. From this group two are chosen to present their plays along with others at the John Hancock Building in Boston. Again, two winners are chosen, but this time to represent Massa- chusetts in the New England Drama Festival. Having closed the doors on a very successful and fruit- ful year, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all faculty and student managers, without whose assistance our success would not have been possible.

President Deborah Jacobs GILBERT AND SULLIVAN President Ronald Reynolds Secretary Judith Taylor T reasurer David Bradford 3hB£S Tlie Gilbert and Sullivan Club has always been one of Arlington High’s gayest and most successful organizations. Past performances of such shows as “The Gondoliers’’ and the “Blue Star Revue of 1954’’ insure its popularity; and this year’s production of Victor Herbert’s “Babes in Toy land’’ was one of the best ever. In addition to per- formers seen in past shoivs, many new personalities ap- peared in this year’s production. Whth one of the largest memberships among school clubs, it is one of the most enthusiastic, with everyone giving full co-operation to- ward a superb production. Under the gifidance of L. Hassler Einzig, club members share many happy memories of dress rehearsals, opening night excitement, outings in June; and especially they share a gratitude for Mr. Ein- zig’s generous assistance and friendship. The school is proud of this outstanding group and will long remember their performances with pleasure. T iventy-tivo

LIBRARY CORPS President Norma Hfavey J ' ice President Margaret Johns Secretary Pegg ’ Hammile Treasurer Staneev Masters Tlie ScnioT Class can leally feel that this club belongs to them because it ’as staited in their sophomore year. With the leadership of Miss Richmond, who also came to A.H.S. in 195,‘b it has become an important group in our school life. There are about thirty members from all classes who gi c one study period a ' week to help in the library. It gi es tbem a chance to learn library procedure and skillful use of library facilities at the same time they are helping their fellow students. Once a month a general meeting is held to plan club projects and acti ities. Indi idual committees are at work all the time to keep the library running smoothly, to see that the btilletin boards are decorated, and that the library gets adecpiate pidrlicity. Each year the Corps has sponsored projects to benefit the school, incltiding the memorable candy sale. The most sitccessftil teas the 2 ,ala Book Fair of 1955, featurins: a book exhibit, a book sale, and interesting special exhibits. Members work hard but it’s not all work and no play. In 195.5 the club was entertained by the Lexington High Library Club, and there is an annual outing. This year the club had a big Christmas party in the libraiy. Twenty-fou,
