Pickles The operetta Pickles was presented February 28th in the Mad- ison High School Auditorium. The operetta was one of the most successful events of the season. The charming voices of the leading characters, together with the volume of the chorus and color of the costumes, made it a long-to-be remembered musical hit. The success of the operetta is due to the diligent coaching of Mr, T. Leo Jacobs, combined with the constant effort of the students taking part. Those assisting Mr. Jacobs were: Dancing Director — Mrs. Tan- ner; Chorus Group Directors and Staging — Hester Warner and Delsa Jacobs; Pianist — Mrs. Rice assisted by the members of the orchestra; Costuming — Mary Parkinson and Mary Hunt; Lighting — C. D. Cooper, Leland Westover and Spencer Ovard; Advertising — - Tillie Anderegg, Maxine Adams and Francis Wright.

Declamation We are proud of the high honors won by Madison this year in the Declamation Contest. Although she was the only two year high school competing Francis Pierson won first place in both Dramatic and Humorous selections, at St. Anthony, thus obtaining the privilege of representing Madison in the state contest at Twin Falls. There he won first place in humorous, but because his selection was a trifle over the alloted time he was disqualified. Comment should be made of the noteworthy honors won in the contest at Madison by Maurine Romney, Melva Larsen, Afton Thue- son and Barbara Parkinson.
