GIRLS’ ATHLETICS The girls’ athletic season this year was not entirely a success. Perhaps there were many reasons for this. The main one might be considered lack of enthusiasm. However, we hope that next year, with the new gymnasium and show- ers, that a large number of girls will report for the various sports activities. Not enough girls reported for the field-hockey to form a team.

SCHOOL NEWS 1. As the new building takes shape and the seniors look it over, it looks as though we might have a large class of P. G s next year! 2. Mr. Stahura values his freshmen and sophomores, and he protects them in his own way by keeping the juniors and seniors on the second floor. That’s tough on some of us! 3. The orchestra that we’ve had at a few of our basket- ball games proved to be quite an added attraction this year. 4. Many of the seniors had pictures taken this year. Some were satisfied, but a few thought the pictures looked too natural! 5. The Dramatic Club presented succesfully on January 16, the three-act comedy, “Captain Applejack”, under the direction of Miss Tapper. The following took part: W. Hurley, A. Johnson, B. Swift, A. Gonella, R. Ferretti, R. Philbrick, C. Bianco, E. Porter, E. Wentworth, B. Harris, R. Gibbs, K. Porter, A. Peterson, H. Nightingale. The stage managers were: S. Days, R. Chase, and B. Brownson. The business managers were: L. Puukka, and B. Dill. The scenery, designed and painted by the art classes, un- der Mrs. Hurley’s direction, added much to the performance. 6. The Public Speaking class, which is in its second year, has been organized into a club. The following offices have been elected: President — Kenneth Porter. Vice-President — Bertha Merritt. Secretary — Stanley Cook.
