Despite the many obstacles that confronted us, including a plush dentist chair and flats upon flats of bricked scenery, the 1946-47 Drama Club seems to have pulled through the major production, You Never Can Tell , extremely well, (with Harvard help, of course.) But wc still have something new to work on. This year we arc giving a scries of competitive one act plays, from melodrama to radio. Wc hope that the finished product will be as good as the idea. We are all very grateful to both Mr. and Mrs. Shea for the swell work they did on the major production, and to Mrs. Shea for the new enthusiasm she has given the Drama Department. r 56]

Log Board Editor...................................................Jean Briggs Literary Editor..........................................Gail Falvey Business Manager.......................................Anne Wechsi.br 1st row. Wynbr, Falvey, Mrs. Pope, Wbchslbr, Fitzgerald. 2nd row. Mbacham, Fernandez, Weed, Baker B., Howes, Harris, Absent: Briggs The Log Board, this year, prides itself on being an especially active organization. Not only have we published three issues of The log—with improvements, but we have given a square dance for raising funds, established the Poetry Group, and sponsored a prose contest. We have also enlarged our list of exchanges and placed these very interesting periodicals on a table in the Library for all to read. As for The Log itself, we feel that we have succeeded in making it more representative of the whole school. We have solicited and received material from both faculty and lower school. The Junior High Department has been expanded and given a more important place in The Log. We have taken greater interest in the world around us, both inside and outside school, expanding and School Notes and the Editorial Department. In our second issue, we were very pleased to have editorials by Eugene Smith and Joan Rosen. We have also succeeded in spacing The Logs more evenly over the year, so that the first issue docs not arrive in December and the last two in April and May respectively. The release of the first issue was celebrated by an Assembly in which the members of the Log Board held an unrehearsed Log Board meeting and read selections from the new Log. This program was very well liked, and we hope to be able to have more assemblies in the future. All in all, this year's Log Board has, we hope accomplished a good deal and has certainly had a great deal of fun. [57]
