Mr. Butchard was the sponsor as Well as the faculty advisor to the first Student Council and Mr. Ainger of the second. The Student Council will surely continue to be one of the out- standing student activities at Cambridge Academy.

DRAMA CLUB After careful consideration, the Drama Club of Cambridge Academy decided that, for its second dramatic production of the year 1956-1957 it would enact the play, Twelve Angry Men. This play is concerned with the fact that an eighteen-year old boy is on trial for mur- der-the murder of his father. It becomes, then, the duty of juror eight, a man who thinks logically and naturally, to persuade the other jurors during the course of the jury's deliberation that this boy could not have murdered his father, and that he is not guilty. During the course of action, which is swift and tense, juror eight meets with much oppo- sition. Juror three, by allowing pride and prejudice to dominate his thinking rather than the logical arguments of juror eight, hinders the progress of this persuasion. Juror seven also opposes eight, not out of logical reason, but because he feels that it is an open and shut case , and that he wants to go to the ballgame. The progress of the persuasion is neither impeded nor advanced by jurors six. nine, twelve, and two because they are tickle and keep changing their votes from guilty to not guilty. The minor opposition is held by the foreman and jurors four, ten, and tive. This faction of opposition is more easily swayed than the previous one. After a long, irksome, and tiring discus- sion, the jury, mainly through the outstand- ing efforts of juror eight, votes for an ac- quittal. Cambridge Academy staged this dramatic achievement on Tuesday, May ninth. The re- sults, both to the audience and the Director, were very satisfactory. The audience immedi- ately labeled the performance a success. As far as all were concerned it was a smash hit and is destined for a long run at Christ Church Parish House. The Director wishes to thank the cast for their abundant cooperation and state that it has been a very great pleasure working with such a cast.
