'lr 'lr 'A' 'A' ir 'A' ir 'A' ni' 'A' 'A' ir 'lr ir The thirty-three member Senior Dramatics Class of 1950 has been kept quite busy this year by Mr. Charles R. Duncan, dramatics in- structor at C. H. S. Most of his Senior students have carried on with him through four years. During a part of the first semester, old scripts were presented by those students in Senior dramatics class, as well as in the Freshman and Sophomore sections where they gave instruc- tions in the art of presenting scripts with confi- dence and skill. Later on, Mr. Duncan gave them new parts to learn and the group concentrated on new scripts from the plays, Dear Ruth, A Date With Judy, The Royal Family, and Stage- door. ln October two of his students presented a short program for the United Commercia' Travelers. ln December, some of them partici- pated in a Christmas program for the Lions' Club. From February to March 23-24, rehearsal was under way for the Sixteenth Annual Re- vue with Ed Uuniorb Bunstine as Master of Ceremonies. Other students, some of whom were in a one-act play, The Crisis , and some in the Chorus group were Paul Meyer, Jane Bickel, Barbara Robbins, Lois Laymon, Diane Harker, Don McGee, Merrill Hines, Joan Mc- Hugh, and Rosie Hupp. ln the middle of April, a group of dramatic students presented a program for Rotary and the YMCA Mother's Club. Finally, after weeks of preparation, the event that the entire group had looked forward to, arrived-the Senior Class Play. The play, What a Life, was cleverly presented by the class and this was a perfect way to drop the curtain on the Senior Dramatics Class of l95O.

The humorous lines and antics of Junior Bunstine kept the audience in laughter. Diane Harker and Paul Meyer, who por- trayed the romantic leads, satisfied the on- x! if fur!
