The class contained twenty-one noble dramatic aspirants, and, on account of this large num- ber, and so as not to disappoint anyone, it was decided to present five one-act plays, in which all would take part, instead of a regular two or three-act drama involving only a few students. These five little plays came off with flying colors. The first play presented was Those Husbands of Ours. Although from the title many expected to see some of the terrible male species ap- pear on the scene, but evidently those worthy personages did not care to appear, but their wives did just as well. Many ladies impersonated well, by Kate Bennett, Pearl Evans, Lena Froelech, Macel Gordon, Vic- toria Peterson, and Nola Gordon, gave a lengthy and impressionable dis- course on the Menace to Wonien. All the ladies of the audience en- joyed this act immensely, but it is impossible to describe the feelings of the men Qespecially when the truth went homej. The next act transported us to sunny Japan, where Howe Moffat assumed the role of a gruff exteriored but mellow-hearted father. Mabel Nelson proved to be an ideal Japanese maid. Earlo Sanders made a truly handsome soldier, and is it any wonder he pined day and night for the lovely Japanese Chrysanthemum, with her fine clothes and winsome manner, effectively impersonated by Edith Johnson? We came back to the U. S., in The Man Outside, but there was a man, and a gallant one at that, inside. Lewis Olsen tried his best to make Gordon Larsen a successful near-thief, but failed, all on account of the ravishing beauty of Erma Cannegieter. Florence Baird enacted the part of an English maid, and truly did frighten Gordon several times. Many complications arose, but finally all were nicely settled and -,everything ended happily. Then we were taken clear back to 1775. Dianthe's Desertion was a clever little playlet. Ethel Naylor, as Dianthe, forsook her mother CLoretta Davisj to elope with a gallant, daring Red Coat. Louise Bentz portrayed Mistress Estelle, a eatty old maid, and Alice Caldwell made a charming and happy little sister. Much was said about the lover, Giles Fletcher, but unfortunately he did not appear to the sight of thdwvatch- ful audience. ' The crowning success of the evening was terminated by His Hero- ine, in which Kate Bennett displayed her charms as the heroine. Flor- ence Baird as Elaine, ran away to an unseen Ned and Louise Bentz, as an aunt, soon left in tears for the cat hospital. . Herbert Bluck imagined himself as an enterprising but unlucky young author, but at the sight of Madge CKate BJ his joy knew no bounds, and he was not slow in pro- posing, either. The work of the Dramatic class has been enjoyed as a whole through- out the year, and it is sincerely hoped that there will be many suc- cessors to it. N . ,J i fa rf. ii' i:

af.: ,faggafw It , X 3 ATHLETICS H ees-ssgei-a ' g FOOTBALL At the beginning of the school year 1919 a call for football was issued by Coach Gardner. About thirty men turned out for practice. The in- terest shown in the game and the spirit among thelfellows on the teams soon spread throughout school. Although football was a new sport for the athletes of our school, the coach soon developed a speedy, hard- working, fight-to-the-finish team. I This, our first year of football since 1917, we hope the men who played this .year will continue to play the game and win repute in high school athletics. Our season ended with a banquet given in honor of the players by their parents. The teams wish to extend a vote of thanks to Fred Stack, who helped them out of so many difficulties with the game.
