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.
