CLASS HISTCRY We entered the Theater of Education as confused, inexperienced actors and actresses, quite unaware of what the future held. We met with Q many difficulties at the outset, but we were determined to master our talents as we settled down to watch and learn during the first, the hardest year 1951 -The reel began to unfold very slowly. We were thrilled and excited at the many goals we might reach, but stayed behind the scenes to watch closely and attentively, learning from voice, action, and techniques of other performers. We were officially accepted into the Theater by what was called the Freshman Initiation . This was a strange method of accept- ance but enjoyed by all, in that it was followed by the Freshman Re- ception , at which we got acquainted with many of the other performers. We were later allowed to take part in putting on a dance for all the per- formers in the Theater. This was the Freshman-Sophomore Dance. It was indeed a gala affair. Our director for this year was Miss Louise Burke 5 our star performer, Albert LeBeaug co-star, Martha Lawson 3 keeper of statistics, Dolores LaPlanteg and treasurer, Barbara Herrmann. 1952 -F or a year we had watched and now were given a chance to participate in more momentous undertakings. Our director this year was Mr. Alvan Lewis, star performer, Julia Gerykg co-star, Martha Lawson, keeper of statistics, Phyllis Jordan, treasurer, Audrey Humphriss. Our per- spective expanded with a broader view of what the Theater had to offer. We were given an opportunity to contribute our learnings when chosen as extras in the Story of High School Life . We all took part in the Freshman-Sophomore Dance, and some of us had parts in the various activities of the Theater, such as the Student Council, Dramatic Club, Glee Club, and various sports. At the end of this year we felt we had really accomplished something and were now prepared to take on larger parts and learn more of the major subjects offered in the remaining two years.. 28
