Leadership - - demonstrated by the student which takes the lead in class- room and homeroom discussions and organizations by prompting worthwhile school activities, by taking the lead in improving the civic life of the school and by holding officers and other positons of responsbility.

The production was directed by Samuel Fetters, our speech in- structor. The cast for the play was as follows: Penny Wood - Mary lean Waters, Chucli Harris - Raphael Mack, Mrs. Wood - Benita Moore, Elmer Tuttle - Iohn Nevius, Dr. Wood - David Bain, Effie - Dorothy Harvey, Milly Lou - Mary Alice Carothers, G. Mervyn Robert - Danny Dixon, Roger Van Vleck - Robert Snod- grass, Mr. Harris - Frank Iohnson, Shirley Wentworth - Patricia Flowers, Ralph Wentworth - Paul Farris, Iulie Harris - Ioan Haley. The play centered around the Wood family, who lived in a small Mid-West town. Penny was a typical high school senior and was, at the moment, wholly uninterested in the boy next door, Chuck Harris. Chuck was occupied with the building of a glider at Elmer Tuttle's, who was the handy man for the Wood family. Chuck's father, is not in sympathy with Chuck's glider. lulie, who was Chuck's sister, was a young lady who liked attention from the fel- lows. Mervyn Roberts, was Mrs. Wood's brother, who was home for a visit from college. He was accompanied by a friend, Roger VanVleck. Roger was quite a lady's man, and was supposed to assist Mervyn in his romance with Iulie. Milly Lou, was a l2-year old who thought she was in love with Mervyn. The resulting mix-up of the boys and girls at a party given by Mrs. Wood provided some entertaining scenes. Effie, the maid in the Wood house, aded to the comedy. Shirley and Ralph Wentworth were neighborhood friends of Penny. -4'7- SMALL SPEECH GROUPS RADIO SPEAKING Gerry Gauthier and Eleanor Miller DRAMATIC DECLAMATION Evelyn Showers, Kay Davis and Virginia Tucker INTERPRETATIVE READING Front Row: Patty Flowers and loan File Back Row: Betty Miller, loan Abbey, Virainia Tucker, and La Rue Klopp. in HUMOROUS DECLAMATION Patty Beath Anita Rogers Ronald Bycroft Marcia Bycroii MUSIC GIRL'S CHORUS MIXED CHORUS The Mixed Chorus of 40 members and the Gir1's Chorus oi 25 members are under the direction ot Mr. Eunice Seltenrich.

In the third quarter Villisca succeeded in making a touch- down and the extra point which won the game. Greenfield 19 - - Coming 7 In their second game of the season the Raiders journeyed to Greenfield to meet a very powerful Greenfield team. The Raider line was unable to with- hold the much heavier Greenfield line and as a result the Greenfield team made many long gains through the line. The final score was Greenfield 19. Corning 7. Coming's touchdown was a pass from Iohnson to Ogburn. Coming 19 - - Clarinda 19 V Although the game between Corning and Clarinda, Friday, September 26, ended in a tie it was generally conceded that the Red Raiders outplayed the Cardinals.

There was no further scoring and the game ended in a tie. Atlantic 26 - - Corning 7 In the first contest on their home field the Raiders were defeated at the hands of the Atlantic Trojans by a score of 26 to 7.

Corning's only touchdown was made by Frank Iohnson in the fourth quarter. -53- FOOTBALL Undoubtedly the most humiliating defeat of the season was the 44 to O homecoming defeat of Corning by Shenandoah.
