Doris, talkative as usual, told me of some of the highlights from the successful term of the juniors. At their first meeting, Lucille Nottingham was chosen president: Arden Crews, vice-president: Margaret Bierschwal, treasurer: and Doris Stroble, secretary. On Lincoln's birthday an interesting program, directed by Miss Napier, was given, Eunice Hegwer acting as master of cere- monies. Doris said that one of the most enjoyable days she ever had was the day where the junior class accompanied the seniors to Long Barn for a snow party. I can remember the banquet given by the juniors for the seniors. This was one of the most elaborate and enjoyable farewells to a senior class that Escalon High has ever seen. The outstanding activity? of the year was Her Step- Husband, the junior play under the competent direction of Miss Miedema. Don Anderson was elected president at a mbeting of the sophomore class, I while Ruth Reisenbeck was chosen vice-president: Carl Droge, secretary: and Iosie Twedt, treasurer. The main event of this class was their sophomore paI'lY. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, includilug Mr. Carter, who was their adviser. The freshmen immediately orgcmized their class at the first meeting under the leadership of Miss Barnett. They chose wisely, and Doris Palmer was to preside at future meetings: Lenore Long was elected vice-president: Carl Gushe, secretary: and Billy Stroble, treasurer. Like the sophomores, their main event was a delightful party. So all in all these three classes had a very successful year. EARLYNE. -'Ef14l9 '

The recent plays are reviewed below. I'LL LEAVE IT TO YOU The senior play, entitled, I'll Leave lt to You, climaxed six weeks of intensive coaching by Miss Mediemcr. It was presented on the evening of December 20, 1934, to a large and receptive audience. HER STEP-HUSBAND The junior class presented Her Step-Husband on the evening of May 17. Mary's mania for misrepresenting things finally gets her into trouble. Now, when it becomes necessary to trot out some kind of a husband for Aunty's inspection, Mary digs up a quick-witted stranger who passes himself off as her husband. Not until she had maneuvered poor hubby to the very threshold of iail, does Mary call a halt on her mad orgy of pretending. AND IT RAINED The operetta, And It Rained, directed by Miss Helena Stockholm, was presented to a packed house on April 5. This operetta was interspersed with clever dancing, pleasing solo work, and good speaking parts. Ei13i9'-
