RODEO — 193 i 19 lit? .Art (Club UNDER the sponsorship of Miss Thomas the Art Club has covered many fields of art. The first works of art were problems of design, block prints, and hand painted Christmas cards. Portfolios were made with a problem of des'gn on them. The block prints were made up into bookmarkers and Christmas cards. Some very ar- tistic work was done in this field. The next accomplishments were pen and ink works and stencil sketchings. Silhou- ettes were made and some very effec- tive placques, wall hangings, tea tiles, and crayon drawings were the next ad- vancements. Curtain pulls were made and crayon drawing was done on cloth, which was to be made into pillows and cushions. Then the Art Club designed and made place cards and table decor- ations for the basketball banquet. Work was started on lettering, water coloring and monotypes. All the artistic work done by the Art Club all year was ex- hibited on Patrons’ Day.

RODEO — 193 i 21 iVgs' %ltt (Lhtlt THE Boys’ Glee Club, a compara- tively recent innovation in our high school, was reorganized this fall for its second successful year, successful mainly through the ability and perse- verance of Miss Crouse, its sponsor, who herself has a remarkable and excellently trained voice. The first semester’s work of the club was given over entirely to learning part singing. Dur'ng the second semester the group made two public appearances: the first when it sang a selection at the program presented at the banquet given for the basketball teams; the second, when on April 16 and 17 it presented the musical comedy, “Sailor Maids.” The Story of the Operetta is: Frances Marie, daughter of Cyrus Templeton the light-house keeper, and captain of a yachting crew of Sailor Maids, is celebrating her eighteenth birthday and the launching of her new yacht. Edward Dover, an old friend and playmate sweetheart whom she has not seen for eight years, is to pilot the new yacht on its first voyage across the bay. Edward knows nothing about yachting and detests the ocean. When he ar- rives he is mistaken for a caterer whom they have employed to serve at a din- ner party in the evening. Because of his interest in Jeannette, a friend of Frances Marie, and his horror for the water, he does not reveal his true identity. Edward is aided in his plot of deception by David Kern, a yachtsman who comes with a message from the caterer. David in turn is mistaken for Edward by Frances Marie, and before he can explain, the real Edward prevails on him to assume his name and sail the yacht. David refuses but is drawn into the scheme by Edward’s clever planning and held there by his interest in Fran- ces Marie. The climax comes when David learns Frances Marie’s engagement to Edward Dover is soon to be announced. The true identity of both is revealed and Frances Marie and her friends are shocked at the discovery. After much explaining the young men clear themselves and win the girls with fathers’ blessings.
