Drama ’62 Is ABLY DIRECTED Success, in every production, depends upon the guidance, training, and talent of its director and technical advisers. Only under the direction of these skilled personnel is the cast able to give atop notch performance. DRAMA ' 62 is very fortunate in having a most highly trained and capable director, Mr. Charles Henry Morgan. Mr. Morgan, known to most people as the principal of Park View High School, directs and organ- izes the intriguing activities and events which compose DRAMA ' 62. He is also re- sponsible for his cast of students which he strives to help in every way. Thirty faculty members compose the staff of well qualified technical advisors. Their job is to teach the cast of pupils val- uable and necessary facts which will form a general storehouse of knowledge necessary for the successful completion of DRAMA ' 62, and also necessary for any further attempts in other roles of life ' s production. 5
