The first public appearance of the club was made in May, 1928, in the staging of the comedy hit, Kempy, an exceptionally amusing play. The second appearance ot the Club was in Robert Kuth's comedy, The Tightwadf' presented at the Goodyear theater in February, 1930. Through this second production the Club has received the public recognition for which they have worked, and an inliuential backing of which they are quite proud. Anyone who was a former member of the Senior Dramatic Club is eligible to be selected by the membership committee of the Alumni Chapter. New members are received and initiated only twice a year, in January and June. A written application must be in the hands of the Alumni Correspond- ing Secretary within two months after graduation. From the list of applicants the member- ship committee selects those persons whom they wish to initiate, not exceeding one-third the number of the 12-A Dramatic Club members in that graduating class. Those persons are then elected into membership by a two-thirds vote of the members present when the vote is taken. The Alumni Club bespeaks the co-operation of the active club and 'sincerely hopes that their work will always be of a standard that will be a credit to South High.
