The Technical High School Dramatic Club The Dramatic Club held its initial meeting, March 5, 1928 in the Assembly Hall at 2:45. The new officers were in- stalled and took charge of the meeting. The officers are: Edward G. Conway, President; Edward Bagley, Vice-Presi- dent; Selma Smira, Secretary; Spencer Carlisle, Treasurer; Clara Ledberg, Chairman of Social Committee. Mr. Carlisle and Miss Ledberg resigned their offices, due to outside activities. Samuel Malin and Elizabeth Hansen were elected to the offices respectively. The club is limited to seventy-six mem- bers which are tried by a membership committee and initiated by the social com- mittee. The members were initiated at the first meeting of the term. After the members were satisfied that the chosen ones were duly installed refreshments were served and dancing continued until five. At the next meeting a one-act play, “The Medicine Show” by Steward Walk- er was presented after which refresh- ments were served and dancing followed. The club, however, does not only give plays at its meetings. The club intends to represent Tech at Pawtucket in a State wide competition for the best one act play produced at their hall on June 2. The club is also lending the Seniors the scen- ery for their play, “Romeo Jane.” All the plays are produced under the direc- tion of Miss Florence H. Bray, faculty advisor. President Edward G. Conway

Twice a week the boys sing alone and once joins with the Girls’ Glee Club, forming a four part chorus. Elementary voice culture has also been introduced, which will in time greatly aid the tone quality of the group. The Glee Club has sung several times before the student body and combined with the girls, helped to make Music Week a success.

1928 THE TECH REVIEW 125 TECH RADIO CLUB Sugarman, Mucci, Weaver, Mr. Peabody, White, Hyman, Frail, Meadus, Durfee, Danella. The Tech Radio Club The Technical High School Radio As- sociation has just enjoyed its twelfth and most successful year, under the direction of Mr. H. B. Peabody as faculty ad- visor. As usual the club has held twenty- eight regular meetings and several special meetings. The officers of the club are: John S. Meadus, President; George Durfee, Vice President; Angelo Danella, Secretary; Harold Frail, Treasurer; Al- mon T. White, Librarian. This club was started in the spring of 1916 by a group of students interested in the science of: Radio which was then called “Wireless.” Many of these boys are now actively engaged in the radio business in this city. Since then the club has bought and sold materials and ac- cumulated a great deal of stock which is used to build and repair sets and for ex- perimental purposes. During the past year we have done about $800 worth of business. The club has paid for a.l u - terials on hand, now has a cash balance, and is able to pay its members for the work done by them. This year we have aroused anew the interest that was once held in code prac- tice, and six of our members have suc- ceeded in passing the code test and thus have become active members. The regu- lar meetings are held every Wednesday afternoon at three o’clock in 5-12, and we cordially invite any member of Tech that is interested in radio to attend these meet- ings. —J. S. Meadus, President.
