DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club of 227 is such a busy club, as busy as one would wish to see! The club started its year,s work by drilling on character dramatizations, voice, gesture, and stage work. They received considerable help from radio voices and familiar radio announcers whom they studied. A program of work was agreed upon: to work for self-control, to enter a room or to appear on the stage in a fitting manner, and to face an audience with poise and dignity. Other points kept in mind were: to co-operate in all ways for best results when giving a play, and to develop dramatic ability. The first public appearance of this group was in a one-act play, iiGrandma Pulls the String? given for an auditorium period on May 7. The student as- sembly appreciated this very much. Mrs. Johnson,s coaching and drilling has brought out dramatic ability and talent in many of her pupils. Page Twenly-nine

The first semester, 3 two-act play, iiA Perplexing Situation? and a one-act play, iiIn Spring a Young Maifs Fancy? were given by the club as evening entertainments. Those who took part in the first play were: Leo Wolk, Rachele Zieve, Mary Min Clancy Page Twenty-eigbt Deikel, Gershon Weinberg, Israel Noodelman, Ruth Davis, Sewell Gordon, Joe Blindman, and Phyllis Crotty. The cast of itIn Spring a Young Man,s Fancy, was: Bernice Glotter, Betty Peterson, Leo Wolk, Isabel Cohen, Hilda Miller, Bernice Cowl, and Ruth Feller. . Much of the work the second semester was devoted to a four-act play, iiRivalryf, which was also given in the evening. Every club member had some part in this produc- tion. The purpose of the club is to give every member an opportunity to take part in some dramatic work, and to fur- nish entertainment for the Lincoln junior high school pupils.

At present there are thirty-nine members. Our aim has been two-fold: enjoyment and improve- ment. In planning our yearts procedure, we decided to read and present one-act plays, both before the club in room programs and on the stage in the auditorium, and to work toward improvement in enunciation, pronunciation, and expression. To acquire stage presence and to learn stage procedure, we had a series of pro- grams, consisting of monologues, recitations, and dialogues. Short originalsituations 0t sketches were written and dramatized. Our club was divided into five groups, which read many plays. One of these, hMiss Civilization? was presented in the auditorium with the following cast: Lily Ericson, Dor- othy Wieseke, Robert Wolfsohn, Leroy Stenborg, Richard Cutts, and Melvin Cohen. Other members of the club were policemen and hremen. Another play, hDo You Believe in Lucky was given after school at a matinee. The following people took part in it: Rose Galanter, Jessie Steinherg, Dor- othy Burke, Jane Rose, Doris Yampolsky, Howard Lane, Walter Bumiller, Esther Mozofsky, Gerald Cook, Billy Goldberg, Florence Antonier, and Frances Johnson.
