Darrell Colbath-Burnett Bragdon On December 16, the three act royalty play, Tattletale , was presented by the Seniors at the Ashland Opera House. For several weeks all our spare time has been devoted to preparation for this production. As the cast comprised the entire Senior Class we were all able to gain considerable knowledge and skill in Dramatics. 'l'he play was amusing. full of pep and fun to rehearse. The lively scene in which was portrayed the hanging of Ermintrude was especially difficult and mirth provoking. Over and over we shouted, DOWN WITH ERMINTRUDEJ' until our performance satisfied our coach. Underclassmen were diverted. the teachers were irantic. still the halls rang with our histrionic efforts. The play was very well received by a capacity audience and as the morning papers recorded no unfavorable criti- cisms we regarded ourselves as accomplished actors. We are all agreed that acting is really enjoyable and provides much valuable experience. l L 1
