(Curtain Jime The Curtain Time dra¬ matic club, organized nine years ago by Mrs. Cohen, has proved a valuable addition to the Auditorium Department. Besides providing a good background in acting, Curtain Time enables students to work cooperatively, to devel¬ op personality and poise, and to improve voice and diction. Activities in this group are varied. The students are available for special pro¬ grams and extra-curricular dramatic work. Each year Curtain Time presents be¬ tween six and eight one-act plays. The high point of each year’s activity comes in the spring with the presentation of a three-act production. Last year, the mystery-thril¬ ler, THE CAST AND THE CANARY, was given. FIRST ROW; Mancilla, Gobbla, Garcia. SECOND ROW; Shimko, Szot, Kushneruk. THIRD ROW: Mrs. Fileff, Kovich, Bielewicz, Redigonda, Tsoutsouris. FOURTH ROW; Dorin, Gomez, Gagliardi. Curtain Time is under the direction of Mrs. Fileff and has twenty-five members. 43
