Stagecrafters Just as great books could not be widely read without printers, no assembly could be presented without the Stage- crafters.

It has been said that experience is the best teacher and the boys who participate as members of the Stagecrafters Club have an opportunity to familiarize themselves with this type of work by actually doing it. Demonstrating the latest steps in the cha cha are Sharon Albright and Ronnie Bair. Chess Club Rook to Bishop-two, check! King to King-one. Queen to Rook-one. Checkmate!
