 ONE-ACT PLAY FESTIVAL The One-Act Play Festival is an annual occasion here at Pacifica, with most of the local schools participating. Our drama department presented Something Unspok- en by Tennessee Williams, which received a rating of excellent at the banquet where the awards wefe pre- sented. SPOTLITE REVUE Spotlite '60 took the theme name of The Big Circus. It was a gala affair with clowns, animals, and lots of excitement. It was a big hit and everyone enjoyed it. GLASS MENAGERIE The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams, was the Spring Play. This play, although it was a completely different type than we have ever had be- fore, was an outstanding success. DRAMA HEAD Pacifica should be very proud—and is very lucky—to have Miss Georgia Ann Weston as the head of our drama depart- ment. Miss Weston sponsors the drama club and various drama field trips. She also su- pervises the very excellent plays that are periodically presented to our school and community. Many assemblies have been presented to the stu- dent body, where the drama club really helped out, such as the skits given to help build rally spirit, to sell student body cards, yearbooks, and special events.

 TIME OUT FOR GINGER was the first term play presented to our stu- dent body and community. The play was concerned wih a teen-age tomboy, whose only love was football. The audience was kept in constant laughter by the antics of this girl. This was the beginning of many terrific shows presented by our drama department. DRAMA Throughout the school year of 1959-60 Pacifica's Drama Department presented outstanding productions. There was the fall play, Time Out for Ginger, about a slightly confused teen- ager, the Christmas Pageant concerning the world before and after the birth of Christ, the One-Act Play Festival with a great play by Tennessee Williams, the Spot- light Review, a gigantic circus under the Pacifica big top, the spring play, The Glass Menagerie, another play by Ten- nessee Williams. All these productions met with great success and we give all the participants hearty applause. 86 CHRISTMAS '59 For this year's Christmas program, the drama department presented an attractive Christmas Pageant featuring the Biblical scene of the Birth of Christ, with the Choir accompanying the pageant in Christmas Carols.

Editor Larry Shannon Finance Ron Ferlingere Photography Shari Bradshaw Copy Editor The annual staff has worked very hard to bring to Pacifica this Annual, of which we are proud. The staff has had a hard time getting started, due mostly to the inexperience of its students, but they made their dead- lines! With the help of Mr. Peters, our advisor, we organized and decided what should be put on each page. This done, we started putting the annual together, drawing the layouts and writing copy. We would like to thank the many people who gave us their time and cooperation. We would especially like to show our appreciation to Mr. Peters who supplied us with technical advice and many excellent pictures, Mr. C. Carter who helped us out on some of the art work, also Bess Stu- dios who also helped us out a lot with pictures.
