Dramatic Club Play o n February 25, 193 1, the Dramatic Club, The Masque,” gave a performance. Two enjoyable one-act plays were produced. The first, The Teeth of the Gift Horse,” by Margaret Cameron. It was a funny skit, made funnier by the capable acting of the Club members. The second play was A Night at an Inn,” by Lord Dunsany, well known for his eerie and strange themes. This was well enacted by a wholly masculine cast. The Dramatic Club is to be congratulated on the extraordinary talents of its members. ■Ifarjor e Njewman.

Milne’s three-act comedy, The Romantic Age.” Those taking part were: Dorothy Davis, Louis Wedel, Dorothy Binner, Henry Tucker, Leonard Lempert, Helen Harrison, Carl Eiermann, Vincent Maiorana, Kathleen Farrell. And last but not least, our coach, Miss Frances Weaver. Miss Weaver gave her undivided attention to our play, and I am sure it was greatly appreciated.

Oceanside The Freshman Class of 1931 Jn the beginning of the term the Freshmen all filed into the Study Hall eager to be at school again, of course. When the classes were going along regularly, the old idea of Freshman class meeting was brought before us. The officers were elected as follows President — Theodore Campbell Vice-President — Muriel Sturrock Secretary — Elsie Grodin Treasurer — James Gelestino Through Trials to Triumph” was chosen as the class motto, while Blue and Gold were decided upon for the colors. The Representative of the Student Council for our class was Horace Davis. As to sports, the boys organized a basketball team which played some pretty hard, close games. The girls also had a basketball team which played interclass games. The Freshmen of 1931 extend their greetings to the faculty and fellow students. Mid'Year Freshmen ho are we? Just the new Freshmen! We were born some time in February and thrust into the maelstrom of high school life. Thirty-nine of us! It was strange at first, but in a week or two we became used to the superiority of the Sophomores, the contempt of the Juniors, and the condescension of the dignified (?) Seniors. There were many different opinions of our new atmosphere. Some of us were satisfied, some disappointed, and some just passive. Perhaps the opinions of some of us were not very good. If so, we may be green, but we’re growing. Virginia rDeSize. T wenty-two
