-s ,,. .N gx L.H.S. CHRONICLE lass zlszfo ry CAST OF 194-5 The rise of the curtain was greeted understandingly, albeit with slight impatience by the audience, as they looked upon the bewildered, but eager cast of two hundred, who were beginning the first act of their four year role on the stage of Lewis High. Order and organization was quickly established, however, with the election of our first ofhcers. Leading man George Oberempt, leading lady Ruth Barbier, scribe Robert Hurley, and custodian of finds, David Wallace. Assisting us as director was Mr. Rathbun. During this, our first year, our more advanced co-actors were perhaps correct in labeling us hams, for little was accomplished. The Academic Award for the year went to Betty Small for her performance in algebra. The following September, our cast returning from the Summer tour, refreshed, and with renewed confidence, was no longer greeted by the cries of ham and freshmen.', No, we were sophomores, on our second continuous run, and as such, entitled to an added measure of respect. During our second election of ofhcers, Russel Bragg was chosen leading man, Nancy MacKay, leading lady, scribe, Evelyn Rodriguez, and custodian of funds, Henry Fontana. Mr. Rathbun was re-elected as director. With such leadership, and background, our cast of Thespians performed noblyg the outstanding scenes of the year being the Land Army and a Sport Dance. The purpose of the Land Army, which many of us joined, was to aid the local farmers in harvesting their bumper crop of apples. The Sport Dance was a success, equally as important. We made mone the . . Y proceeds of which went into an impoverished treasury. J During the year we had the misfortune to lose the services of our director, Mr. Rathbu h ' d d ' ' n, w o was in ucte into the army. At an emergency cast meeting held for the purpose of electing another director, Miss Magut was elected. The Academic Award Oscar for this year went to Robert Temple for his role in Latin. . The next September, returning as upper classman, we immediately set to work on Act Three, although this time perhaps we were not so refreshed, a considerable number having spent their Uvacationsn working in war plants and on farms. Election of officers resulted in Leonard Zieminski being selected as leading man, Philip Liguori, co-leading man, scribe, Dorothy Carlson, and Virginia Fontana, custodian of finds. Miss Magut, our capable director, was re-elected. Whenever Junior activities are discussed, the Junior Prom is immediately brought to the fore. Our Prom, amidst glittering lights and decorations, was a success socially. But as is the misfortune with proms, we lost money. Later in the year we also held a Saint Patrickls Day Sport Dance, and a hot dog sale. Oscars for the year went to Robert Temple for capturing the annual spelling prize, Sidney Sherman for U. S. History, and to Bernice Choquette and John Brzowski for their rhetorical eloquence in the Junior Recital. I Page Sixteen -Q -ll' -. . .V .L-il? :t: ff:7vf--,-W L-if ,,nff'vr.mwtr:ce+'fm, mmmm.u ,.a...
