Henry Clay Again Produces Gilbert And Sullivan Operetta Oh, Dry the Glistening Tear This year the Glee Club under the direction of Mr. William Troxell produced The Pirates of Penzance . The production was very colorful and altogether delightful. The operetta is completely comedy with even the name being ludicrous, as Penzance is an English beach resort . Briefly, the story is of Frederic who became mixed up with a band of pirates by a twist of fate, and how he wished to leave them but couldn ' t because he is the slave jf duty. This prob- lem is solved in the light, humorous way that marks Gilbert and Sullivan ' s operettas. Sullivan said of this work, It is wonderfully funny in parts, is beautifully written for music as is all Gilbert does . From the time it was first produced the Pirates of Penzance has been a hit and is one of the most popular Gilbert and Sullivan operettas. Although presented for the second time in Ashland, it was attended and enjoyed thor- oughly by the audience and the cast. 48

Princesses Raise Funds for March of Dimes HenryClay High School was proud this yearto give four of its lovely daughters as candidates for the queen of the 1952 March of Dimes Dance. These girls are pictured above, left to right, Beverly Moore, Mary Randolph Blunt, Beverly Stone, and Josephine Hall. Karl Barker who raised the largest sum of money was ill at the time of the presentation of the crown. Mary Randolph Blunt, campaign manager for Karl, accepted the crown. The four girls raised a total of $947.60. The above picture is included for the benefit of those who can not know what an effort it is for the annual staff to achieve desired photographic effects. In this snapshot we see the pho- tographer lying flat on the floor in order to shoot an unusual pose of the senior cheerleaders. The finished product may be seen on page 46 of this book.
