Class History The present Senior Class gained distinction at the junior High School through the sponsorship of a prize winning school magazine. Our class, how- ever, did not come into its own until we attained the seemingly mighty rank of Sophomores. The existing Senior Class had different views concerning that, they demanded proof of our might. Therefore, throughout our Sophomore year, we strove to become illus- trious in the eyes of the upper classmen and the faculty. Some of us entered athletics, others entered clubs. Our most prominent activity that year was the decoration of the school at Christmas time. The following September we returned to the Academy as juniors, ready to subjugate any over-ambitious Sophomores, but still under the surveillance and domination of the Seniors. This school year many more of us partici- pated in extra-curricular activities. On Thursday of graduation week, we were the Seniors' hosts at the Senior-Junior Reception. During the first few days of our Senior year we derived much amuse- ment from the gullibility of the Sophomores. Very soon, however, other activities gained our attention. Early in the term the Seniors held a party, followed by another one later in the year. Following the custom of previous years, we presented a Senior Play and published this De-O-Wain-Sta. Now, it is our turn to leavo our alma mater and go out into college and the business world. We feel that the training and preparation received will be a factor in our future success.

Our Sophomore year was uneventful with the exception of our regular duties of decorating the school at Christmas time. After passing our regents in january and june' we entered into our Junior year. We started our social activities with a junior party which consisted of a short program, dancing, and refreshments. This party helped the members of the junior class to renew old ecquaintances and make new ones. The re- ception for the Seniors in June will bring to a close our junior year in Rome Free Academy. The junior class wishes for the success of every Senior and hopes to be able to uphold the standards set by the graduating class of '32. WILLIAM LYNCH, '33.

The latter was left undiscovered until we proved artistic ability in the Christmas decorations of the school. Then we became more prominent through various activities. Among these was the issue of Brass Tacks, which we published. The Sophomore party was decidedly a success, and the committee worthy of all the praise extended to it. We Sophomores offer the graduating Seniors hearty congratulations and wish them all success for the future. .MARY MICKLE, '34, .-.1.. stein..- 1.-.- , clams l'lere are the5e young barbcmans Q ploy. .-.-.1 fe - 0 - cafvain - Sta 5.-.-.

In the past year the club had a very active season, sponsoring many large events both in and out of school. Among the more important of these was the Alumni Dance held on New Year's night. A large number of Hi-Y's past members attended. The dance was a great success. Early in March a Parent and Son dinner was held, with Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Kent as speakers. To conclude the season the Hi-Y arranged a conference of all the officers of the Y. M. C. A. movement in the colleges of New York State. Throughout the year the club's adviser, the Reverend David N. Boswell, gave a series of talks whose titles were based on recent plays. Hi-Y wishes here to express its deep appreciation for all the work that Mr. Boswell has done for it. To the Club Sponsor, Mr. J. Ward Brown, goes the club's heartiest gratitude for the untiring service which he donated to it during the year. Hi-Y also wishes to thank the girls of Rome Free Academy who served them so efficiently as waitresses at their weekly meetings.

Throughout the year many of the girls have received instruction in First Aid, Home Nursing, and Life Saving, which helped them pass first class and earn merit badges. The profits from a card party bought shingles which the troop donated to Camp Higham. Money for curtains was taken out of the treasury. On several occasions the troop has sewed for the poor and donated food and money for the needy. In connection with the work there were parties, hikes, and luncheons, making the work of scouting more pleasurable. Of the many other social activities enjoyed 'by the troop, the outstanding seem to be the Mc-gher and Daughter Banquet, held May 15, the Girl Scout Rally and the Court of Awards May 21.

The purpose of this new organization was two-fold: first, to be of actual service to R. F. A. by helping with the library workg and, second, to give the girls an insight into library work as a possible vocation. This group of girls help Miss Brown during their free periods and also after school. The council is not an organized club, having no officers. Two teas have been given for the members of the council during the year. Its membership is limited to twelve. The membership for this past year was com- posed of the following girls: Doris Fischer, Mae Grems, Angelina Gricco, Mabel jacobus, Anna Lemish, julia Lemish, Laura Nardozza, Elizabeth Rienzo, Elinor Sasenbery, janet Livingston, Emma Spraggins, Lillian Akins and Flor- ence Baer.

It has played on several occasions, most of them being in the audi- torium. The outstanding activities in which it participated were: The Slinger- land Contest, Dramatics Club Play, Senior Play. The Trumpet Quartet of the orchestra played at Camden for the preliminaries of the Onei.da County Prize Speaking Contest. The orchestra intends to make its final appearance at Com- mencement. ikjijfi The Band We feel that we can not complete our De-O-Wain-Sta without saying something about our newly organized band. Under the direction of Mr. Pinti, a former symphony orchestra player and band leader, the band has developed from a few scattered players to a well organized and well balanced band. Although composed not wholly of students of R. F. A., but also junior High School students, it is a high school band because the two schools are so closely connected. It made its first appearance at a school assembly and was very favorably received by the students. The bandis second appearance was also in the auditorium when, it played for the finals of the Oneida County Prize Speaking Contest. At the time this article is written there is a movement afoot for equipping the band with uniforms for the football games next fall.

The 1931 team was the lightest ever to represent the Academy on football gridirons. However, what the boys lacked in weight they made up in spirited determination. Out of the ninety candidates who reported for the first practice sessions, Coach Keating had four lettermen around whom ' he faced the problem of building up a-team sufficient to pit its strength and skill against some of the strongest opposition in Central New York. In cutting down the squad to thirty-five players, preference was shown the under classmen ,as they would serve as valuable material in the future. After a week and a half of strenuous practice under a sweltering sun, a varsity team was rounded into shape and prepared for the first battle of the season against Little Falls. .t.. - at C5 91. ...... , ---v-v-a :De - - qxyai n - Sfa f.-.-.-.-.-.-.- ROME, 13-LITTLE FALLS, 0 The date September 19 marked the first victory of the 1931 team. jour- neying to Little Falls, our eleven took that of the latter into camp by a 15-0 score. A forty-yard run by Dave Miller brought the ball up to the six-yard line where Captain Caswell plunged over for the first touchdown of the season. Art Williams in the third quarter ran seventy yards for the second touchdown. The team as a whole showed its inexperience, for the line was unable to open up holes and the backfield was unable to give sufficient interference. ROME, 13-CANASTOTA, 0 On September 26th the team registered its second victory when it slipped and slid its way through a sea of mud to chalk up a 13-0 score over Canastota High at Riverside Park. The main feature of the game came when Harlow Sexton scored the initial tally on an eighty-five-yard run after he had inter- cepted a Canastota pass. ROME, iz-FULTON, 7 ,Showing a complete reversal of form, the Orange and Black gridders, on October 3rd, turned back a powerful Fulton eleven by a score of 12-7. The first touchdown came as a result of a successful march down the field from the 28-yard line to the ten-yard stripe where Sexton slipped a perfectly executed pass over the goal line into the outstretched hands of Dave Miller. The second came when Dame Fortune allowed Donnie Ross to pick a Fulton fumble out of the air and, behind quickly formed interference, race fifty yards to the goal line. The line showed up exceptionally well in this game, espe- cially when it held Fulton on downs after they had marched up to within the ten-yard line. The entire team played as a veteran outfit and it well deserved the victory. ROME, 0-WATERTOWN, 19 On October 10th the R. F. A. team journeyed to Watertown where they were defeated for the first time of the season by a 19-0 score. The Rome eleven seemed to lack the punch, grit and fighting spirit which they displayed in the previous game with Fulton. Minus the services of Captain Caswell the boys seemed to lag and become-entangled with each other, allowing Water- town to outclass them in every department of the game. Praise should be given to little Walt Sezna who, filling Caswell's shoes, played the game of his life, being in -the thick of every play and making nearly two-thirds of all the tackles. ROME, 0-OSWEGO, 26 On the following Saturday, October 17th, playing on a strange rain- soaked gridiron, the Academy team bowed in defeat to a powerful. Oswego eleven, 26 to 0. Despite the handicap of having to play with the breaks against them, the team put up a much gamier fight than was exhibited in the previous Watertown game. - .-.-. at of ai. -.-.-.-.-.2 92 - Q - Wain - Sfa -.-.-.-. ROME, 0-ONEIDA, 18 The curtain was rung down on the Academy's Central League season when a crowd of 2,000 people saw the Oneida team, Section One champions, grind out an 18-0 score over its much lighter opponents, the R. F. A. Although the Oneida eleven were held scoreless by the Rome team throughout the first half, they chalked up three touchdowns during the remainder of the game, one resulting from a Rome fumble. ROME, 0-S. A. A., 0 On October 31st the Academy eleven vied with its city rival, Saint Aloy- sius, for the city championship on a rain-soaked Riverside Park. Both teams played good football considering the condition of the field. With the excep- tion of a fumble, the Rome team never let the Saints advance beyond midfield. Sexton's kicking and Sezna's consistent ground gaining were the two features of the game. ROME, 0-UTICA, 13 ' Saturday, November 7th, we find underlined with red in the diaries of Rome and Utica Free Academies, for this day marked the twenty-ninth annual struggle between the two bitter rivals. The Utica team trotted onto the field boasting as impressive a record as any Yellow and White football team has known in several years. The Romans, outweighed twelve pounds to the man and favored to lose, neverthe- less were undaunted, for they ripped, tore, plunged into, and flocked their big bruising opponents, pressing them to the limit for every inch of ground they gained. Handicapped by the heavy coating of mud that slowed up their running attack, the light Rome backfield had to depend on their aerial attack for most of their gains. This they used most effectively, gaining seventy yards to their rivals' nothing. ' Special credit should be given the linemen, for they exhibited their best showing of the season, holding the Utica team for only first downs. The entire team played a mighty fine game and the two touchdowns chalked up against them, one resulting from a fumble deep in Utica territory, were acquired only through extreme exertion. ROME, 27-S. A. A., 0 On November 12th the Rome Free Academy football team finished its season with a striking 27-0 victory over St. Aloysius. Walt Sezna proved to be the star of the game, making several sensational runs and robbing passes from every imaginable angle, making two touchdowns. The other touch- downs were made by Williams and Sexton, the latter also converting three placement kicks. Now that the season has come to a close, we of the De-O-Wain-Sta staff extend to you, Captain Vanderwalker, and your remaining teammates, our best wishes for a most brilliant and successful season in 1953.

The 1932 team at the close of the season placed second in the North Central League and besides possessed the distinction of being the only team in the league, with the exception of Oswego, to have defeated all its league rivals at least once. Considering that only two lettermen from last year were available, great credit should be given Coach Keating for rounding into shape the varsity squad that he did. The week-end of December 11 and 12 found the Academy team annexing its first victories of the season by a score of 23 to 12 over Whitesboro and by a 15 to 13 count over Assumption of Utica. The latter game proved to. be a real test for the teams engaged,as an over-time period had to be played to decide the winner. The entire squad of twenty-two players saw action on December 15 when the Orange and Black swamped the Rome School for the Deaf by a score of 26 to 3. journeying to Canastota for its first league tilt the R. F. A. squad at the end of the game found themselves ,on the short end of a 15-22 score. The following night the team again tasted defeat, losing by an 18-32 count to a strong Utica quintet. Rebounding from these two defeats with a fiery spirit of determination, the Orange and Black snatched a well-earned victory from a clever and powerful Alumni five, the final score being 27-26. Entertaining Assumption on the Academy gymnasium court, the team again took them into camp, this time ekeing out a 20-9 count over them in a very interesting and exciting battle. The Sherrill and New York Mills aggregations were the next victims. Then came the highspot of the season-the Oswego game. Oswego coming here intent upon victory, finding the R. F. A. boys in the pink of condition, found instead served up to them in a highly fashionable manner-DEFEAT-by a 24-19 score. Led by Captain Salce, who accumulated ten points, the Orange and Black clad basketeers throughout the first half fought an uphill battle. Then at the start of the final period they rushed on to the most creditable victory of the season. They gave Oswego one of the three setbacks which she encountered during her entire season. , The team lost its chance to prolong the city scholastic championship series when it dropped its second game to S. A. A. 28-40, the score of the first on january 10 being 24-16. However, they remained in the thick of the race for the leadership of the league by again defeating Sherrill 28-21. Parks had one of his several big nights during the game and secured 14 points. at 45. at .-.-.-.- Se - qflvain - Sta -.-.-.-.-V ,,-----,, The invasion into Oneida territory proved to be successful, the outcome of that game being 19-16. Our next opponents, those from Ilion, caught the boys on an off-night and won from them 19-23. In a return game with Oneida, Rome was forced to concede to a 26-28 defeat. Entertaining the Fulton High School squad here on February 12, our local cagers added them to their spoils by doubling the count of them for a 28-14 victory. The next night, however, they met a stumbling block and suf- fered their second defeat at the hands of their old rival, Utica. Mainly through the aid of Parks and Sexton, who caged 15 points be- tween them, the Orange and Black nosed out the winners of the City League, the Saint john's Cavours, 28-27. The trip into the western part of the state resulted in an even break. Be- fore a crowd of 2,000 people, Oswego avenged herself for her only defeat in league competition, and to the gleeful delight of the spectators trounced the Rome outfit 18-32. However, the next evening Rome again hit her winning stride and defeated a highly touted Fulton five 17-12. By virtue of her 28-16 victory over Canastota in the final league game of the season, the R. F. A. basketeers clinched second place in the North Cen- tral League. This standing enabled them to be entered in the Watertown Invitation Tournament where they encountered ill luck, winning only one of the three games which they played. Special mention should be given to this year's reserves for they had a very successful season, winning eleven out of the fifteen games which they engaged in. GLENN SPRAGUE,, 32.

A. 1952 baseball nine is closing a fairly successful season. The team has been built around a handful of lettermen left over from last year. To date, with Harlow Sexton and Billy Rienzo sharing most of the mound duties, Rome has won six out of the nine games played. The team opened the season in defense of the league pennant on April 30 at Oneida where they administered a 14-3 defeat to the Oneida High School. On May 4, Rome entertained its old rival, Utica Free Academy, at River- side Park and lost by a close 7-9 score after they had established a comfortable lead. Sherrill High proved to be the next victim of the R. F. A. nine when the teams met on May 7 at Kenwood Park. The Academy boys in hitting the ball all over the field, chalked up a 15-2 victory. On Tuesday, May 10, R. F. A. met Canastota High, the new entry in the league, at Riverside Park. Rienzo in pitching a no-hit game enabled the team to secure an easy 19-2 victory. The boys met their first league defeat of the season when they bowed to Canastota 9-10 on May 14. Poor fielding played a large part in the unex- pected setback. ' On Tuesday, May 24, at Verona, nearly every member of the team was used in an attempt to silence the winner's bat, the final score being 4-24 in Verona's favor. On the following evening Rome captured the pennant for another season when they edged out Oneida 9-6 in a well played game at Franklyn's Field. St. Aloysius captured the first leg on the city championship series on Sat- urday, May 21, when they eked out a 1-5 decision over the Orange and Black. The boys wound up their league competition on May 24 when they won a decisive victory over Sherrill, 16-4. The staff is backing the team in the remainder of their games, hoping that they will turn out as well as the majority already played.

Thejjury was out for 36 hours during which time Hazel Pendorf of the Pendorf-Astoria, assisted by Alice Gifford and Anna Sobik, served the meals. The jury brought in the verdict of guilty, but the counsel for the defense moved that a retrial be held on the grounds that the crime was a federal case, and therefore could not be tried in a state court. In the rush to get out of the court room, Irene Lahey was hurt and the ambulance was called. Bessie Puttock, the chauffeur, and Helen Foster, the assistant, put her on the stretcher and tookher to the hospital endowed by Dorothy White, world famous violinist. An operation was necessary and Dora Clemens, M. D., was called in. The nurses who assisted in the opera- tion were Anna Quinn, Marion Zugner and Marian Walter. Marian Long, business solicitor for Paduck 8: Grems Undertaking Parlors, called but was informed that the patient was doing well. Irene was not to spend all her time looking at the ceiling, for a fire broke out in the Cicero Public Library across the street from the hospital. This library was endowed by Catherine Bokus, now assistant to Professor Gwen- dolyn Buckingham at Daser College. Firemen responded to the alarm and Captain Kolakowski, who has received many commendations for bravery and coolness, rescued the librarian, Martha Miller, the brave firemen also suc- ceeded in bringing Jennie Seccurra down from the third floor where she was delving into the mysteries of the future. Rome had its Nero, but the prize goes to Gertrude Nero, who fiddled in the hospital and prevented a panic there. She was given a medal by Ida Carr, mayor of thes city. Firefighters Helen Mason and Mary Volpe rescued the masterpiece Passionate Angle- worm from the hungry flames. Firefighter Garofola was burned in an at- tempt to save Venus The damaged wing of the building was carried away by Lutz 81' Davy, long distance haulers, and was used in a new building being erected by the Lawislak Company. Anna Mae Zingerline, head of the farm relief board, and Audrey Bartlett, well known bottle-capping champion, were appointed by Miss Harrnacker, head of the Library Association, to investigate the cause of the fire. Money was, furnished by Dolores Colp, wealthy phi- lanthropist, and Gladys Abbe, one of our foremost educators, to repair the library. Contractors Milewska 8: Hryskewicz did the repair work, and in so doing their foreman, Mary Nold, was forced to discharge Thelma Bowers, a rioter, for spreading Red propaganda. The newly repaired wing serves as a club room for the newly organized Women's Rights Organization headed by Loretta Pomilio, Dorothy Smith and Helen Stanulevitch.

But not only did that occur, I even visited the planet of Eros. But let me tell you about it. One evening in 1942, an object which later proved to be a rocket from one of the planets, dropped, or rather came hurl- ing down into my garden. Gerald Palmer and Robert Barber, the famous scientists and astronomers whose advice I sought, informed me after consider- able investigation that this rocket had probably come from Eros. They sug- gested an expedition there to explore the planet. As soon. as the news of this proposed trip became known, scores of offers for different means of transporta- tion were made. Wallace Butts exhibited a ship which was propelled through the air by the force given off by a series of explosions of gas bombs. The rocket ship designed by Adolf Duda, and manufactured by the Bates, Bates 8: Bates Manufacturing Firm, was finally chosen. After much consideration the following crew was chosen: Daniel Shacter as navigator, jack George as mechanic, and Giacomino Dambrosi as pilot. George Black, an eminent ethnologist at Columbia University, and Robert Hansberger, a noted geologist, completed the party. The evening of departure finally arrived, and farewells were said amid the cheers of the gathered crowd and the music of a ,band led by Berwyn jones. The rocket was set off at last, and kept gaining in speed so that it was only a matter of a year or so before we neared our destination. I can not attempt to relate all that occurred upon our arrival-our dis- covery that the planet was inhabited by strange beings not unlike machines, our seeing so many amazing buildings and inventions. The thing which im- pressed me most was the instrument by which the operator could see any per- son or thing whom he wished in a small recording frame. The owner dem- onstrated it, and then allowed me to operate it myself. Immediately I thought of Rome and friends I had had there, and on the frame appeared a picture of Dominick Street! The first firm do8r up the street bore the name Edell Brothers, Attorneys-at-Law. While I wondered hdw the two were doing business, I saw that Richard did the real work and john acted as sort of a drawing card in the ante-room. With such an arrange- ment they were very successful, especially in obtaining divorces for their various clients. At the moment they were getting Glenn Sprague a divorce from his fifth wife. The next establishment was a smart cafe owned and operated by Jimmie Terzini and Paul Russo. Entertainment was being furnished by Nick Spohn and Eddie Stewart, who did a song and dance number. A new theater, one of the chain of Sauer 8: Schilling, had just been com- pleted and was open for the first time that afternoon. The billboards adver- .-.-. az.,5s-A. . ..... , 1-A 5 534' . -C -.-.-.-v-.- fe - 0 - Wai ri - Sic: -.-.-.-. tised a double feature composed of Daniel Wardwell in Dear Brute, and William Caswell in Touchback. A Wolfe, Wfoodruff and Webster com- edy completed the program. An odd little shop down the street attracted my attention. Coming closer I saw that it was the headquarters of Angus Clydesdale, who was devot- ing his time to the suppression of Scotch jokes. He made a habit of throwing pennies along the street whenever he went out, but it was rumored that he had agents in the crowd to pick them up and return them. Across the street was the office of the Mayor, who at that time happened to be William Arthur. It was said that he got his start in politics by his close relationship with a family of noted lawyers and judges. Robert Winship had the responsible position of City Clerk. just then a large truck driven by Lawrence Smith passed carrying all of Bronson Ragan's worldly goods. The country had at last proved too great an attraction, and he was moving out to stay. Suddenly a taxi of which Dominick Page was the driver raced down the street toward the station. I could not imagine the cause of the hurry until I was told that Bernard Maciag, the President of the Western Union, was making all haste to catch the next ship from New York. He arrived at the station just as the train, run by Sam Perry and Le Roy jones, came up. In the station ticket window I recognized Orrin Fargo, and nearby, Joe Cimo, who was working there as a bell-hop. Focusing my glass on other points, I saw that Charlie Green had become a football coach at Harvard and had turned out a victorious team that year. john Henderson was engaged in teaching higher mathematics to the sons of Old Eli. Albert Garcia and Carlton Pressey had positions teaching Scouting in a boys' camp on the Hudson River. joseph Marturano and james Spazianni had opened an amusement park on Long Island. One of the cleverest features was the sport arranged by Edward Esch and Howard Peglow of teaching people to drive by actual expe- rience. The old Fords which were part of the equipment were enough in themselves to make the park one of amusement Nearby Rosario Destito sold lemonade and peanuts, while Emanuel Slutzker 'ballyhooed the freak show. In an adjoining tent the Zakala Brothers, Champion Wrestlers and Boxers, were performing. Returning to the city, my glass- showed a huge factory building. On closer inspection this proved to be the Bartholemew Bubble Gum Factory. In one room of the testing laboratory which, by the way, was under the super- vision of La Verne Moldt, were Paul Cesari and Patsy Scherzi. Their job was to find out, by actual trial, the size of the bubbles produced by the gum, and its ability to stretch. Farther on, in the building of the American Federation of Cheesemakers, Randall Thomas was discussing with the President, George Van Vleet, the advisability of shooting holes in limburger cheese with a shotgun. at 5. 9i. -.-.-.- Be - - Cyfvain - Sfa -.-.-.-. At a news stand owned by Kenneth Gorman, I saw a paper with head- lines American Swimmer Sets World Record in Channel Swim. Under it was an article describing the recent success of John Taylor. Evidently he prof- ited a great deal by working diligently on his strokes during his early youth. Another item interesting me was that Charles Doty, manager of the Giants, announced that his star players-jack Schroth and Harlow Sexton-were well prepared for the coming baseball season. Paul Brooks, the famous criminal lawyer, had just finished pleading a case, and now was awaiting the jury's verdict. Joe Serino had represented the interests of the other side. john Dick and Hugh Graham, reporters covering the trial for their papers, were uncertain as to the outcome of the trial. A radio placed outside the firm of Karnas 8: Mitchell, Radio Distributors, for advertising purposes attracted my attention. just then a voice which proved to be that of james O'Brien announced that a program sponsored by the Huta Heliocopter Manufacturing Company was at a close. The next broadcast was that of the Short Tale Club. Two of the most prominent mem- bers, Charles Meyer, noted explorer, and Frank Bingham, peppy little come- dian, told their favorite tales. I was listening to Merle Eakins croon I Do from the recent success, Chat Ha, a production of Howard Sharp's, when I noticed a crowd gathering about a nearby newspaper bulletin. I hastened over to learn that Sam Freedland had made first place in the line-bucking events in the Olympics the preceding day. This device for measuring the strength of a football linesman was the invention of Floyd Goodrich. Also, Congress- man Collela had just pushed a bill through the House for the maintenance of the present tariff. It was rumored that the success of the bill was due to the support given him by Milton Rieck and Edward Kaminska, and other influ- ential capitalists. Karl Miller had a responsible position with a noted publishing firm. His task was to read and refuse, or better still, to refuse without reading, all superlative literature sent in by aspiring writers such as Emerson Boyson and Hugh Thomas. At the time he was reviewing How I judge Women by jack Payne, a well-known beauty expert, and Around the World in a Dayu by Evans and Pelton, famous aviators. The scene was fading and I just had time to glimpse William Link and Daniel Verenti as proprietors iof a large flower store before the glass became dark. I wished, of course, to take such a machine home with me, but the Ero- dians would not allow any of their inventions to be taken from the planet. Thus I had to content myself with the experience I had had of using it, and seeing all of my former classmates. However, I considered the trip would have been well worth the time and trouble spent on it had that been the only result.

The first prizes of twenty-five dollars each went to Elizabeth Newton and Harlow Sexton. The second prizes of ten dollars went to Elizabeth Jenkins and joseph Serino.

The affair was sponsored by the Students' Association, and well supported by all the classmen. The gymnasium was attractively decorated in the school colors, orange and black, to represent a football field, with ten-yard markers, and goal posts at each end of the floor. Several colored spotlights played over the dancers. Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Newton, Mr. and Mrs. William Keating, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Rice, and Mr. and Mrs. Bradford Golly were the patrons and patronesses of the evening. The music was furnished by The Collegiate'Peppers, who certainly kept things peppy. judging by the number of the squad who attended, and the remarks of some of the older patrons, the dance was one of the most enjoyed in the his- tory of R.

The scene took place in Luke's hut in the Carolina mountains where he conducted his Nmoonshine business. He had, as his captive, a man whom he believed to be the government officer and whom he hoped to be Jim Dunn. Wlmen he informed the unlucky fellow that he intended to kill him, the officer seemed pleased and told of his many unsuccessful attempts at suicide. Upon hearing this, Luke immendiately released him. Later he discovered that it was jim Dunn to whom he had given freedom. The crude setting which represented the interior of the hut, and the ease with which the boys acted added a great deal to the play. joint Owners in Spainl' portrayed the complications of three old ladies in the home for the aged. at 05. at -.-.-.-.1 Qc - 0 - qfvain - Sa :.-.-.-.-. Betty Newton, as Miss Dyer, was an inmate who had worn out her sensi- tive companion with her self-pity which was most evident. As a result, poor Mrs. Fullerton, Elinor Sasenbery, was to be taken to another room. The part of this nervous old lady was acted very well. Joyce Morton, the efficient matron, had cleverly selected Mrs. Blair to room with Miss Dyer. Mrs. Blair, taken by Dora Mason, was a talkative and domineering person. The matron with her firm but kind way was taken in a natural manner and Mrs. Blair was excellent. As the two old women found it impossible to be congenial, they divided the room with a chalk line. After both- had established themselves in their respective sides, they were very friendly neighbors. Mansions, the third play, depicted the struggle between Harriett Wilde, the sedate old aunt, and her niece, Lydia, and her nephew, joe. The aunt, Teresa Whittenburg, clung to all the old customs and traditions of the Wilde family. Her niece, Betty jenkins, and Edward Getbehead, her nephew, op- posed all of her quaint ways. joe's ambition was to become an architect and, as he was ill, he realized that he could not fulfill, this desire before he died. Lydia believed with him that one could achieve after death. joe, because he wished to work after death, made Lydia promise that she would not allow their aunt to pray for his eternal peace. With much difficulty, she carried out her promise. The aunt with her sedate manner and quaint tastes was very effective. Lydia's defiance and joe's longing were shown in a natural manner which made this play memorable to all. Much of the success of the plays was due to the excellent directing and coaching of Miss Strout. BARBARA I. TUTHILL, '32. i-MKII at 5. at. N ....., pe-QD-qxpain-Sin f. -.A.-.-.-v- .-.-.-.-.A.-.f.

Barrie. The play was unusually well acted and was one of the out- standing events of the year. The cast delighted a large audience on Friday, May 6, in the Rome Free Academy auditorium. The scene of action is laid in England on Midsummer's Eve. The plot chiefly concerns the events of a night at the country estate of Lob. On this particular night anyone entering an enchanted wood in that section would have a chancce to relieve his life. Most of the guests have desired to do so and here at last they get their opportunity. What happens in these woods when the characters meet is both amusing and entertaining. Margaret jenkins as Mrs. Dearth was excellent in her interpretation of the woman who married the wrong man. Howard Wolfe deserves praise for portraying realistically his difficult role of Mr. Dearth. Dora Mason, as Mar- garet, the youthful daughter, added much humor to the play. Fannie Groff as Lady Caroline Laney played the role to perfection. Her haughty air was a great source of amusement to the audience. Eugene Carpenter as Joanna Trout gave a fine performance as the girl with whom Mr. Purdie had fallen in love. She handled her role skilfully, and particularly so in the last act. Daniel Wardwell and Elizabeth Newton as Mr. and Mrs. Purdie dis- played unusual ability in performing their parts smoothly. As the egotistical, philandering husband Daniel showed his adroitness. Daniel Shacter's characterization of Lob was one of the high spots of the play. He kept the audience interested and amused with his clever acting. Richard Woodruff, as Matey, gave a fine portrayal of an English butler who was dissatisfied with his station in life. Marjorie Cahaney and Karl Miller, who played the parts of Mrs. Coade and Mr. Coade, gave astute performances as the old happy couple. We are indebted to Miss Strout for having coached the players so excel- lently and we wish to take this opportunity to thank her and the entire cast for their fine work.
