Enacted Hansel and Crete! ' For the past eight years the students in the dramatics classes have been giving a play for the grade school children of Hammond. “Hansel and Gretel” was given the first semes- ter, which was attended by three thousand children. The second semester “Simple Simon” was given in three different performances, each with a different cast. The Association of Childrens’ Education of Hammond sponsors these childrens’ plays. The A. C.
