'sponsors .. .. .,.. .. Miss Rebecca Lee Miss Virginia Mather The dramatic department consists of two specific divisions. the junior and senior clubs, each being sponsored by a faculty member. Miss Rebecca Lee and Miss Virginia Mather. The membership of these clubs total to fifty members and are fea- tured in the above picture. Both clubs have proven very ac- tive as well as successful. In general, the majority of the per- formances have been assembly programs. The senior club also contributed to the exchange program presenting Here Comes the Bride at Sewickley High School. The cast was as follows: Tom Brent ........................ David Mohn Estille Loring . . . . . Charlotte Roman Anne Fox .... ..... B ette Hinds Mr. Fox .... .. Robert Mahich The students of the vocational department have, over the past year, completed many interesting and worthwhile projects such as cedar-chests, wardrobes, end tables, foot stools, and desks. The successful work done this year is partly due to more complete equipment than we ever had before. Under the direction of Mr. Reno, shop instructor, a storage room was converted into a paint room. A spraying machine was installed which is used to spray paint and varnish on the equipment which they make. Instructor .. .... Mr. Lindsey Reno

Dircctor .......................... Mr. John Caldwell The high school chorus, under the direction of Mr. John Caldwell, this year again proved its ability to interpret music in a very pleasing manner. This group, after singing for various evening perfor- mances, has received much praise from many different sources. 'We must not fail to mention the all-girl chorus which has been organized. This choral group sang at a neighboring church recently, as well as at many performances at the high school, including the Spring Concert. Without the help of the senior orchestra our assembly pro- grams and evening performances would hardly seem complete. Most of the members have shown a keen interest in this activity thus making the orchestra finer than it has been in many years. With graduation the orchestra will lose two of its most faithful participants: Millicent Freeman, pianist, and Alberta Pirkheim, violinist. In a recent forensic contest this group received such a high rating that they entered a sectional contest held at California State Teachers College, where they won first place. The orchestra showed its ability at the On to Norristown Concert held on April 27.
