Genfmfy PLA YERS Greasepaint, long hours of rehearsals, and numberless rounds of applause paint a good picture of this industrious group of aspiring dramatic artists. The 1946-47 season was an exceptionally successful one, studded with brilliant plays and sparkling talent from the ranks of Cen- tenary's dramatic roster. The first three-act play, given in November, was Ladies In Re- tirement , which brought forth a superb de- gree of talent in school, also included in the cast was Rafael Brewster, a Broadway actor. Early spring brought forth a hilarious orig- inal play called Oentenarianna, An Interlude in Heaven , which was a series of skits depict- ing the changing life at Centenary during the past seventy-five years. During May a three- act modern comedy, Springtime for Henry , was presented, which was, as usual, a tremen- dous success. RADIO WORKSHOP Writing and producing radio broadcasts over Station WEST, Easton, Pennsylvania, has been the primary interest and work of the radio class this year. The class also spent two days in New York attending broadcasts and gathering practical knowledge and hints for producing programs. Voice recordings were made and studied through the year to help correct faulty pro- nunciation and articulation. Q. OO. The g take ru: best sei? reading N Mrs. to make while xv Ma

Secretary Jane Leigh Treasurer Nancy Wahlberg Sergeant-at-Arms Mr. Garber Advisor The Psychology Club, which was actually begun a year ago April, really started functioning this year. Through this club a better understanding and working knowledge of psy- chology, its terms and uses, is gained. The club sponsored many activities, among which were a trip to Lyons Veterans' hospital, open lectures for the school on therapy, epilepsy, and working in hospitals in order to to see cases and conditions at first hand. The membership of the International Relations Club is limited in number due to the fact that the meetings are usually very informal round-table dis- cussions, centering around happenings and news of the day. Through this club many points of international news are Hhashed over and the members keep up to date on world happenings of the day.
