MANDOLIN CLUB Director: Miss Sprague Officers President: Doris Cattabriga Vice-President: Nancy Smith Secretary: Edna York Treasurer: Katherine Shaw Concert Mistress: Phyllis Jacobs Librarian: Maxine Willey An outstanding organization and a unique one at L.H.S. is the Mandolin Club. The club has 'been active throughout the year, playing at several assemblies and appearing frequently as entertainment for several clubs in town. Under the able guidance of Miss Sprague, a new-comer at L.H.S., the club has become one of the most popular organizations in the high school. Rehearsals are frequent, and much time and thought are given to the perfection of each selection. If any of the townspeople were asked to name the outstanding organizations at Lebanon High School, it -is more than probable that the Mandolin Club would be named immediately. Throughout the year, it has attained great popularity by enter- taining for any group that requested it. Members of the club wish to extend to the townspeople a bit of the good will so characteristic of L.H.S. One of the most appealing facts about the club is the remembrance of many delicious snacks served at some tea or meeting for which the club played during the year. U51

DRAMATIC CLUB Director: Mrs. Palamountain Officers President: Priscilla Hathaway Vice-President: Lincoln Cain Secretary: Lorraine Hamel Treasurer: Agnes Fafard The Dramatic Club is one of tl1e more exclusive organizations at L.H.S. It has been especially active this year, putting on several plays seldom equaled in the high- school annals. Q An excellent play, Accent on Revengen, was presented at assembly and to sev- eral local organizations in the middle of the year. You may be sure that it was re- ceived with more than ordinary enthusiasm. To become a member of this club, one must take part in a play or occupy a position on the staff. New members are voted in by the club, which bases its selec- tion upon acting ability. The director was Mrs. Palamountain, to whom credit may be given for the suc- cess of the club this year. The main play of the year was A Pair of Country Kidsv, which was an over- whelming success. The Dramatic Club, by the way, is one of the few organizations in the high school which has a good-sized Hnancial reserve. The club should be congratulated for its diligence. l14l

ORCHESTRA Director: Mr. Wrenn Officers President: Geraldine Towle Vice-President: Richard Nourie Secretary: Roger LeBlanc Treasurer: Francis Dubuque Librarian: William Murphy Among the traditions of L.H.S., one stands out as of utmost importance among all musical activities. This is the Lebanon High School Orchestra. Through the years, the orchestra has had an outstanding part i.n almost every high school gathering. its appearance at assemblies put a finishing touch upon any program. Any alumnus, returning to the school, listening to the piece called 'iWar March of the Priestsu feels a little catch in his throat and sees himself again marching out from assembly. How can anyone forget the thrill of marching out with the best- looking boy or girl in the class, of funny situations when John Tall walks out with Susie Short, or to bring it to earth, Paul Valia with Frenchie Fontaine? The Orchestra plays for every Dramatic Club play. lt played for the Operetta and had much to do with its success. A graduation would not be complete without the Orchestra playing the graduation march. U61
