THE BOOSTER 13 • OUR FINAL EXIT Wasn ' t the class play wonderful? Oh, I wouldn ' t have missed it for any- thing! and Didn ' t everyone take his part well? were some of the rap- turous exclamations of a Sherwood au- dience, heard after the performance and in conversation with friends later. That it was a great success is agreed by all who saw the play and enjoyed its beautiful scenes and its rapid ac- tion. Those who craved excitement were satisfied when Fitzwalter, at bay, called out the loyal foresters of Robin- hood; when the fight, into which rushed the mysterious knight, oc- curred over Will Scarlet ' s execution; and when the horrible deeds were com- mitted in the abbey. In contrast were the fairies, sixteen of them, flitting, with starry wings flying, under vari- colored lights, and with Oberon and Titania, wishing to do all within their power to save Robinhood and Marian. Paul Kleeman, handsomely be- decked in green, with long hair and a new beard for every performance, ably took the part of Robin, Earl of Hunt- ington, outlaw and lover of Marion Fitzwalter. His merry followers were R. Schakel, H. Haskett, M. Clark, E. Gaskins; Alfred Shad as Will Scarlet, Russel Frakes as the hump-backed Much, Harry Morton as Little John, Robin ' s dearest and most solicitous friend; and, merriest of all, Taylor Obold, twice as plump as usual with all his padding, was Friar Tuck, about whose slim waist Robin jestingly re- marked. The part of the sorely tried old lord, Fitzwalter, was taken by Em- met Kelly, while Dorothy Williams as Marian Fitzwalter, his daughter, was loved by all, including her devoted maid, Jenny, played by Maude Payne. Sadye Sebel was a weepy Widow Scar- let, and Geraldine Gibson, Anna Hee- ringa, Esther Wilson, and Herbert Hill were starved peasants. Norman Littell as Prince John, base villain, aspirant to the throne and to Lady Marian ' s hand, showed great feeling in acting his part, as did Doro- thy Albright, who made an ideal Queen Elinor. King Richard was played by Drexel Hunt and his minstrel, Blondel, who roamed the country singing, was Carl Fechtman. The part of the pompous sheriff was taken by Delbert Morse, whose three assistants were Earl Schmoe, Ralph Scanlin, and Wal- ter Heiser. Prince John ' s nephew, Ar- thur Plantagenet, was Irma Gulley, and the prince ' s retainers were Wil- liam Over, Carl Paulissen and Harold Snoke. Two nuns were Leona Quin- zoni, prioress of Kirklee, and Loretta Hergt, a novice. The court ladies were Gertrude Lehmann, Laura Mol- ler, Inez Weddle, Lucile Lipps, Jose- phine Keller, Virginia Rea, Charlotte Uhl and Marjorie Stewart. Much fairer than mere mortals was Lois Deck, queen of the fairies, with her beloved wings and fairy wand; and Oberon, the king, was Edward Talbott. Their court consisted of sixteen fairies, Dorothy McCoy, Gladys Ben- son, Irma Gulley, Ida Koor, Adrienne Tyner, Hazel Gra.dy, Elaine Clabrou, Dora Sapirie, Dorothy See, Alma Maschmeyer, Sara Day, Adah Young, Rose Tegeler, Mary Henderson, Lorena Miller, and Ruth Sanders. Norris Wagaman was the frolicsome Puck, and Ben Becker, Shadow-of-a-Leaf, the fool. Lester Moreland had the important job of stage manager, and the electri- cians were Russel Kretsch and Harold Joseph. Others who helped to make the play a success were John Goll, Forrest McAlpin, William Stevenson, Frederic Smith, Burnam McMath, Ray- mond Price, Cecil Jordan, Elmore Bry- ant, Dewey Fitch, Warder Kemper, Henry Morgan, William Zeiher, Harry Clift, Harry Bernht, Paul Ritter. A Toast to Our Friend. Here ' s to our parting, unwillingly, Boys; Here ' s to the days when we really had joys; Never again can we such days find, As we spent in the school that we now leave behind. Higher than any, the best one of all, Manual, if you need us, you know where to call. We ' ll back you in everything that you wish to do. So, here ' s to our parting, but ere we go, We ' ll plant good On Manual down deep in our soul, And following that motto we will strive for our goal. — A Modest Senior in Room 10.

THE BOOSTER 15 f THE PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB The Photography Club was organ- ized in the fall of 1915, and was the outgrowth of work that was done in Miss Odell ' s English class along the lines of amateur photography. During the first year of the club ' s existence, through the efforts of Miss Odell, the sponsor, the help of competent officers, and the co-operation of the members, the club was able to progress and im- prove constantly, and to accomplish some very interesting and instructive work. The club was again organized in the fall of 1916, under the excellent spon- sorship of Miss Odell, and proceeded, with a membership much greater than that of the previous club, to carry on the work which had been started. Dur- ing the past school year the Photogra- phy Club has been especially active in our school life. The club has been able to enjoy many jaunts, and, at their regular meetings, numerous lec- tures. For many of these lectures the club is indebted to the faculty of our school; speaking specifically, it is in- debted to Miss Helming, Miss Eunice Perkins, Mr. Stewart, and Mr. Kitch, and the club wishes to take this oppor- tunity to again thank these teachers for their help and co-operation. The one project of the club for the past term has been the fitting up of a dark room. Such a project has been ac- complished and the club now main- tains, in a small room off of the chem- istry laboratory, a dark room, where printing and developing of pictures is carried on. A word might also be said about the policy and purpose of the club. The purpose of the Photography Club is to supply a means whereby the students of this school may study amateur pho- tography. The policy of the club has always been that the members of the club shall work as a whole upon any project, that upon jaunts the club shall remain in one body; that is, that people shall not wander away from the main body of the club in groups or pairs, and that all shall cheerfully fol- low the rule of the majority in any decision. So, with this policy and pur- pose as its guide and with the co-op- eration of the student body and fac- ulty, the Photography Club is nearing £ the completion of its second successful year of existence. Continued on page 22 THE UKELELE CLUB The Ukelele Club, alias the Jazz Band, was cornered last night and our reporter elicited these facts from the unwilling(?) gleemen: Early in this semester, when an agi- tation for more clubs was sweeping this Emmerich High, a conscientious group of June ' 17 Seniors (we say conscientious because we believe this the first, last, and only time that we can apply this term to the group) banded together with the avowed pur- pose of forming a club. Here the tes- timony became confused; some said the agitation for more clubs was the reason for organization, some say not; some say the original intent was to get Carl Fechtman in with a bunch of fellows tall enough to hide him when he sang. At any rate, it seems they all agreed to pass a resolution in some such form as the following, which was extracted from their hours (they are so slow they can have no minutes) : Whereas, a bunch of (ir) responsible June ' 17 Seniors have the underlying bond of mutual noise and loudness, and whereas, the best known and most diverting instruments and articles by which loudness can be vociferated to the admiring public are Ukeleles, Nor- man Littell, and the trio of certain members who have hereunto at the close signed their respective first and third names, do hereby loudly resolve to become a club named the Ukelele Club of Manual. We, the aforesaid members, do hereby ratify the forego- ing resolution and in witness do duly (re) sign our names. Signed: Ray Michael, Carl Fechtman, John Fitz- gerald, Albrecht Wellman, Earl Gas- kins, William Over, Edward Talbott, Donald McCasky, Norman Littell, Har- lan O ' Connor, Paul Kleeman, and Vera Fleck, pianist. Apparently from most of the infor- mation received at the hearing by our said reporter, the club rather quieted down. Determining, however, to call the attention of the public, the com- pany broke into vod-vil one day a trifle later than they were billed to appear. One of the members had been so de- layed by the suddenly accidental death of a jitney-bus driver that it took quite a time to soothe his bird of pair-a-dice and find his uke, misplaced in the excitement.
