l rumatic One of the oldest clubs in the high school is the Dra- matic Club. The Dramatic Club limits its membership to students who have shown outstanding ability in dra- matics, both in acting and stage work. This year the Dra- matic Club gained many new members from the operetta, Meet Arizona, which was presented in December. In the spring the Dramatic Club usually enters a one act play in the Virginia Literary and Athletic League Dis- trict Two, One-Act Play Tournament, held in Fredricks- burg. Last year we presented Mooncalf for this contest. This spring the Dramatic Club is planning to present three one-act plays for the public and from these three plays select the one to be presented in Fredricksburg.

The Key Club of Henry Clay High School is one of the most active clubs in the high school. The objectives of the Key Club are to develop leadership and initiative, to provide experience in living and working to- gether, to serve the school and community, and to promote the objectives of Kiwanis International. The Key Club has completed a number of projects this year. The members sold drinks and helped in the booths at the Kiwanis Carnival, decorated the community Christmas tree, and sold refreshments at school games. Most of the club mem- bers attended the international convention in Washington, D. C. last year. 28

Under the guid- ance of Miss Ola Murray the club has continued to publish the school paper, the name of which was changed from the Commercial News to the Eaf’le Lights. 30
