CGCJLLCQUJ PEPPERETTES. L-Z PEPPERETTES HELEN GRAY At any football or other Beaumont game our team is supported by cheering from the stands. Most of this cheering comes from the section occupied by the Beaumont Pepperettes. The Pepperettes, which is an all-girl organization, has become one of the most popular clubs in Beaumont. The membership now totals more than four hundred. Membership is granted to any girl who owns a season football or basketball pass. The girls also have very interesting meetings in the auditorium after school. These programs consist of singing, dancing, and other various entertainments as well as cheering and practicing the school song. The purpose of these meetings is to stimulate school spirit and to train a better cheering section.

Cacluceud , ... SHAKESPEARE CLUB MARIE PRANGE 1 . The man that hath no music in himself, Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds, ls fit for treason. strutagems, and spoils. The motions of his spirit are dull as night And his affections dark as Erebus. Let no such man be trusted. ln these lines William Shakespeare suggests the larger aim of this club-to develop the music within the members themselves, who, without this music, says Shakespeare, cannot be trusted. Early in the term the club selected for study, The Merchant of Venice, which, incidentally, is the source of the quotation above. The choice was from the works of Shakespeare that are not offered in the regular English courses. The acts are assigned to different groups for the study of the roles. Then. at each meeting, one act is presented until the whole play has been completed. A characteristic tradition of the club is that each member responds to the roll call with a quotation from the play being presented. Under Miss Donnelly, our first and only sponsor until this year. the club won a place of distinction among Beaumont organizations. Her withdrawal is greatly regretted, but We are happy that Mr. Enzinger has consented to work with us. Fifth-, sixth-, and seventh-term students who have the E and G habit should ponder the advisability of joining us. lContinued' on page 1233 One Hundred Ten
