Catholic High's Dramatics Club, the Queens Players, started their year's activities with election of officers on November 25. Frank Manning was chosen president, Joan Slief, vice-president, and Evelyn Geng- ler, secretary. Sister lmmaculata, O.S.B. was director and sponsor of the club. The first proiect of the year for the Players was the production of the play Our Town, which was worked on with much enthusiasm and presented in an air of excitement. ' Then, on December 5 and 6, Frank Manning and Joan Slief were sent as delegates from the Queen's Players to the Speech conference at Norman. The Catholic Theatre Conference in Kansas City, Missouri, February 13-14, also found the Queen's Players represented, there, they presented a one-act play, The Romancers, with .lo Anne Jensen and Frank Manning in the leads. The activities of the year were climaxed with three plays The Enchanted Rose, Mrs. Harper's Bazarr, and Spreading the News. A novel touch was added by seating the audience in a circle around the stage. Doing this required little scenery and contained enough movement so that someone faced the audience at all times. This unusual arrangement was a carry over from Shakespeare's time and is now being revived. film
