Minor Characters: Seventy to one hundred and Eve poor insigniicant beings. ACT I. SCENE I-Radford High School. TIME-Freshman Year. In this scene the actors undergo a sudden transition to a higher step of development. However, it seems an age before the signs of their utter inferiority and greenness begin to disappear. Victims of a rather swift evolution of personal bearing, they flutter about with an immovable air of importance, which is afterwards realized to be a most pathetic illusion. Highlights in the scene: Class organization, Participation in Stunt Night. ACT II. SCENE I-Radford High School. TIME-Sophomore Year. In this act the players take a second step with a Ermer grasp upon themselves, and with a knowledge that they really have a group to look down upon. Who can blame them for that feeling of genuine mastershipn? They are Sophomore players, and who can deny them the right? Highlights in the scene: Class organization, Participation in Stunt Night, Won prize for best Home Room Assembly program. ACT III. SCENE-Same as Acts I and II. TIME-Junior Year. The players now appear for the Erst time on the set for more privileges. They become the Senior backersg their work takes on a somewhat serious aspectg even their grand opinion of themselves begins to sink at this stage.

But soon these players will be offered a part in another play, College, where, if they so choose, they may again become Freshmen and Sophomores.

'We, the one hundred and fortyfthree guests, found ourselves seated between huge dikes and a large blue windmill towering above our heads. It was wonderful to be in the land of tulips and windmills with bewitching Dutch maids at our service. Our toastmaster, Jeff Loftus, entertained us with a well arranged program. This consisted of an invocation by john Barton, an address of welcome by Malcolm Campbell, a response by Clarke Cunningham, a solo, Little Dutch Mill, by Marguerite Wardrep, a talk by the junior Sponsor, Mr. Giesen, a tap dance by three of the Dutch maids and a Dutchy talk by Miss Engart, the Senior Sponsor. The chief address of the occasion was delivered by our Superintendent, Mr. Barnett. Throughout the evening we were entertained with music by Joe's Rhythmic Rascals. As a souvenir of this memorable sojourn in Holland, each guest was given a blue windmill containing the program and the menu. Theodore Rand. Esther Rand .... Diana Rand .,..

SYNOPSIS: The Rand family is the hub of the play. It consists of Franklin and julia Rand, and their four children, Donald, Diana, Theodore, and Esther, ranging in age from twenty to fifteen years. Having inherited his modest fortune, Franklin Rand, and those dependent upon him, have never realized what economy and team work mean to the average family. A bank failure precipitates disaster to the Rand publishing business and almost over night the family is brought face to face with poverty. The Hrst reaction is that of incredulity, followed by open rebellion on the part of julia, Donald, and Diana. Theodore and Esther fight to the last ditch for the despairing father. To add to their troubles, Donald, the social rebel, marries Margie Scanlon, the daughter of a notorious law breaker. Into the maelstrom of disorder and bickering comes Margie, fitted through a life of combat to add new blood to a weakened family organism. Against overwhelming odds she turns the tide against Richard Crandall, a suave, rascally politician who would take advantage of the Rand misfortunes to make a tool of Franklin and Enally succeeds in planting the family fortunes on firm ground at the close of the play. 30 .............................................

My own experience tells that the boys will never forget that dear old Coach of theirs, who pulled at his hair and foamed at the mouth when some play failed or the line did not hold. Although the final whistle has blown, let us sum up the score for those who have played their last game. Cunningham, who reminds us of Ichabod Crane, has shambled off for his last R. H. S. pass. Bobby Hall was very courageous this season. Perhaps the encourage' ment came from Washirigtoii, D. C., and it wasn't the new dealers, either. Showalter, who resembled a battleship cleared for action, will be missed. His inspiration lies not in country lanes, but in Rhodes Fisher, as a guard, was outstanding, in view of the fact that this was his first season as a regular. Brooks, as the ball carrier, will be missed. He reminded us of an earth' quake as the ground trembled beneath his pounding feet. Richards was superb. If Knute Rockne had lived, Richards would have made good material for him. Bill could smile and overpower his opponent at the same time. Covey, a sly cunning player, who looked like the Hunchback of Notre Dame in the line, will ever remain in the memory of the R. H. S. football enthusiasts of 1934. Hetherington is a friendly, sunshiny fellow, a good player, a man of action rather than words. Udell-look what fate gave us for a football player! An old, old salt from Davy Jones' locker, who came to us from over the bounding main. Let's have more seamen! With this review, the curtain falls. May these fellows who are left behind keep the old banners from drooping, as did those who have gone before.

The program on this day was well attended and was followed by a ball game in the after. noon and a banquet that evening, held in the high school gymnasium. After the banquet the Alumni sponsored a dance in the Legion Hall. No plans for the future have been completed thus far, but it is hoped that the Home' Coming Day will become an annual Alumni event, and in the spring these plans will probably be completed. A great deal of interest was shown in the Association this year, and with a growing interest and the cofoperation of its members, the Radford High School Alumni Association can become one of the most active organizations of its kind.
