PLAYERS DRAMATICS The Dramatic groups are organized to inspire students who are interested in dramatics and to give them an opportunity to display their talents. To become a Thespian one hundred points are required. Seventy-five of these must be for the participation in at least two acts of a three-act play and the remaining twenty-five for backstage work. The Thespians presented the three-act play Double Door this fall. A dramatic student has to earn fifty points to become a player. Mem- bers are selected for the Freshman Club by Miss Hill after try-outs before her. A group of Fresh- men and Sophomores presented the play Glamour Boy in February. This excellent dramatic work is under the supervision of Miss Florence Hill. First Row: Bonnie Litt, Jay Vidal, Helen Elite, June Sakel, Bette Ramsay, Nancy Nupuf, Marlene Miller, Cynthia Weisner.
