Favorite After School Meetings DRAMATIC PRODUCTIONS The chorus and Thespians com bined their efforts to produce Capers of 194 . r 5 . the first dramatic production of the year. This musical was a smash hit Lat A . er in the sea- son the Thespians produced Clar- ence . the comedy stage hit by Booth Tarkington. There were two performances of Clarence - one for adults and a matinee for the high school students. Both were en- joyed by all. MUSIC ACTIVITIES The Nifty Shoppe was presented by the chorus and its stylish models caught everyones eye-especial- ly the boys. They also sang Christmas carols for the Rotary Club and provided the anthem for the recog- nition service. The annual sprili concert of the chorus was a huge success. SOCIAL FUNCTION Highlighting the social activities of the school was the Tri-Hi-Y Christmas semi-formal dance. Every one will admit they had a good time at that dance. Other social affairs held were-a Box Social. Youth Planning dances. ice skating, and other dances sponsored by various clubs in the school. OTHER CLUBS The Forensic Club is one of the newer clubs in the school. It has debated against over twenty schools They have traveled to other towns to debate and also been hosts to visiting teams. The club has lost very iew debates and has been highly successful. Creative Writing. Home Economics. Rifle. Library. Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y are all older clubs and as active as usual.
