The purpose of the club is to encourage interest and participation in dramatic activities and the arts of com- munication. Providing members with an opportunity to learn and practice speech and drama techniques is another benefit. At monthly meetings the members dis- cuss and evaluate current theatre, film productions, and techniques of stage lighting and make-up. In its first year at Mary Manse the Drama Club pro- duced several one-act plays under the direction of its moderator, Mother Mary Charles. This year's student- directed production was The Cop on the Corner in which eight club members participated. Some club members were also involved in the college play, Lute Song. Many of the Drama Club's productions were presented to various groups in the community in order to develop out- side interest in the club and college.

Mary Manse College was represented at the Demo- cratic Women's Night in the ballroom of the Commodore Perry Hotel by four members of the Young Democrats Club. The meeting was the major event of the year for the five hundred women present and gave the Young Dems an occasion to learn more about woman's position in community politics. Club members are offered the chance for active political participation and the opportunity to represent Mary Manse at local, state, and eventually, national con- ventions.
