The questions used on the program are submitted by students. The Quiz Master was Dr. M. L. Howe, head of the English department of Easton High School. Quizzes were held between various clubs within the school and with the clubs of Wilson and Phillipsburg High Schools. Many interesting pro- grams included contests between the Mathematics and the Latin Clubs, Pen and Parchment and Junto staffs, Senior Hi-Y and Junior Hi-Y clubs, and the Chemistry and the French clubs. A very interesting battle of wits was held between the orig- inators of the program and three students of the high school. Mr. Sandwick was adviser to the students in charge of the programs. The STAGE MANAGERS prepare the stage for the production of all programs. They operate the moving picture machine and amplifying system and they put up the scenery. Their work is not con- fined to school production; they also work on community presentations in the auditorium, some of which are community concerts, P. T. A. plays, and dance recitals. The most im- portant jobs of the year are the operetta, which requires about one month’s work, and the senior and junior plays. The group closes the year’s work in preparation for the graduation exercises. The leader of the Stage Managers is Jack Price, and the adviser is Mr. Erb. Ray Bassett. Frank Lehr Jaek Price.

A membership drive was conducted this year, and many attractive post- ers were hung about the school. This plan was a great success. A doggie roast was held at Miss Intel's home, where all the future meetings were planned. At the first meeting each person made a note pad, either in the form of a wall plaque or a scribble pad. The second project was making the membership pins, which were constructed of nickel silver in the shape of palettes. Clay modeling was the club’s next activity, and some unique necklaces and pins were made. Since plastic articles are very new and modern, the club made clever rings from pink and blue plastic. This project was such a success that other members made bracelets from aqua plastic. At the Easter meeting eggs were painted and decorated with the conventional designs often seen at that season. The final meeting was held with the French club, and French painters and French art were discussed. The members of the Arts and Crafts Club gave very inter- esting reports on such artists as Millet, Monet and Van Gogh. The officers of the Arts and Crafts Club were president, Gloria Willis; vice president, Janet Zimmerman sec- retary, Shirley Knecht; treasurer, Madeleine Nevin. Shirley Knecht.
