Dram The comic disorder of a high school newse room, was revealed in Ever Since Eve, given by the senior class and directed bg Miss Alma Morrison, May 2. This comedy of youth un- folded in the story of Susan Blake rArlene Mastinl, a career girl always getting into difficulties, and the trouble which beset those two loyal Inuslceteers, Johnny Clover flvlax Fobesl, editor of the High School Penguin and Spud Erwin tBob Severancet, his stooge, when Susan high-pressures herself into the position of assistant editor. Susan's innocent enthu- siasm almost banlcrupted the Penguin and made complications in the romance of the high school principal, Henry Quinn 'Lowell Scogganl, youngest high school principal in the state, and the journalism teacher, Martha Willard fMargie Kenti. Things ended hap ily for all when Johnny's mother, Mrs. Clove:-prBonnie Chesrnutl. steps in and saves the day. Other seniors who assisted with production work were Rachel Weaver, Ilah. Burkhearl.

Slmmollml .Inst as thc urxny band at a camp raises the toxic of morale for the soldiers after long hikes, during recreation periods, and even in the midst of battle, our Fort Troy marching band fulfilled the same function for the Trojans. As in all battles, large or small, our side has not always been victoriousg yet the Trojan Band enthusiast- ically played stirring marches at every possible opportnnily-whether our team won or lost. Originality was the keynote of the band's ma- neuvers. A different and often unique program Director. Bonne Tire Drum Munn Pl! -llmnf with appropriate music was presented at the half of each game. The baud performed at various civic functions throughout the year. It alternated with the Camp Phillips Dance Band playing for the dedi- cation of the service board and bond rally. With facility the band turned to the less serious job of playing for the annual Halloween parade. Climaxing the year's musical activities, the band gave a spring concert. h The orchestra, composed of thirty-nine mem- bers and directed by Mr. Eugene Tice, did not get under way until the second six weeks of schoolg the first six weeks being devoted entirely to the marching band. Once rehearsals were started the orchestra had it successful season. The organ- izaliun made its first appearance at the junior play where it played before and between acts. lt also played for the senior play. The highlight of the your was a program pl-0. duced completely hy the orchestra marking the first orchestral concert to be presented by the Beloit high school. At Easter the orchestra joined the ehorugeg in presenting Handel's Messiah,
