74ea.z!ze geakaaa Zia THE CAP-N-BONNET SOCIETY is the combined dramatic society of Malvern and Villa Maria. Besides the production of the Fall play and the Spring musical, the Society sponsors a dance, a banquet, and a May proces- sion. Highlights of the ban- quet are the election of offi- cers for the following year, and the selection of Miss Villa Maria and Mr. Mal- vern . Less known members of the Society are the stage crews. These unsung heroes of the productions are the unseen members of the So- ciety who work behind the scenes so quietly and effi- ciently.

The Society is also active in charitable works. At Thanksgiving and Christmas , the members contribute not only money and gro- ceries, but also their time making holiday baskets of good cheer for deserving and needy families. After the Spring musical the Society do- nated 551,000 to the Malvern Chapel Fund, and an equal amount to the Building Fund of Villa Maria. To Father Francis Gilligan, the director and moderator of the Society, and to Sister St. Eileen, the choral director, both schools owe a great debt of gratitude for their organization of the Cap-n-Bonnet Players and their wonder- ful cooperation in the life of the Society. wrxinii- Oi me 10 1 ar' Y ptocessioz grailiue in rhe Q a . r 293.336 WRTSQSM- dem of V1
