DRAMATIC ASSOCIATION One of the oldest student organizations at Shattuck is the Dramatic Association. The D.A. is the goal of all the students who participate in dramatics, whether in acting or in crew work. New members of the D.A. are announced by the president at the play performances. The president this year was Ken Malvey, who, with vice-president Les Gundry and the other D.A. members, has done a competent iob in dramatic work this year. The other members were Clarence Futrell, O. D. Hauschild, Bill Newburg, and John Terhune. if The Thanksgiving play this year was The Silver Whistle. Major roles were held by Les Gundry, Tony Jackson, Ken Malvey, Bill Newburg, and Lee Peterson, of Shattuck, and by Judy Bartholemn, Kate Dawkins, Mary Ann Johannes, Ruth Krueger, and Mary Jane Martenis, of St. Mary's. The story concerns the awakening of a youthful spirit in old people. At this perfor- mance, an old custom of the D.A. was reinstituted, that of having members of the Shattuck Crack Squad as ushers. The play for the Junior-Senior Prom week end was also given twice during Commencement. The play was Brother Orchid. Dave Chandler, John Cochrane, Steve Goldberg, Les Gundry, Tony Jackson, Bob Miller, Ward Morsman, Bill Newburg, Jay Swanson, John Terhune, and Ray Wiper had maior roles. There were no female parts. The plot concerns an ex-Chicago gangster who becomes a Florentine monk. The director of dramatics this year was Mr. Herschial Welsh, Shattuck master, who taught here from T947 to l953, and is again with the faculty. He replaced Mr. Quentin Jensen, who is now living in California. SITTING: Gundry, Malvey, Futrell. STANDING: Terhune, Newburg, Hauschild.

THE SCIENCE CLUB An organization whose activities have held the interest of the student body this year is the Science Club. This new group, advised by Mr. Herder, began as a regular Tuesday evening activity last fall. However, mervbe-'s of the group have worked together on their proiect nearly every free afternoon. The club's proiect this year vxas the launching of rockets. Although several obstacles prevented a completely successful launching, the club has made many advances and hopes to launch the three remaining rockets next year. The tive racket bodies were purchased whole at a cost of approximately S-40.00 per rocket. Each rocket body was one and one-halt inches in diameter, and the tee? long. The club T members themselves made the firing mechanisms, reshaped the rocket noses, and made the bu:st dlaphragms. Ot the two rockets tired this year, the first tailed because an excess of heat from the fuel cracked it, and the second because of its loss in the lake after it was fired. The members of the science club this year were Dick Cushman, John Cushman, Ron Follows, Jae MacMillan, Jim Schroeder, and George Welles.
