CLASS PLAY : Nora, Wake Up!'' a comedy-drama, chosen by the seniors of '40 for their class | play was presented to the public on the evenings of May 12, 13. | Marian Poppele as Bridget Honora Calahan (Nora) took one of the leading parts of the play and turned in an excellent performance. Mrs. Calahan, a jolly, good-natured mother with an Irish accent, was acted by Corinne Mansfield who proved her dramatic ability. Those who gave a good performance included: Carlyle Coleridge, a tramp, Clifford Kobi; Johnny Calahan, Mrs. Calahan's son, Eugene Beber; Danny Millens, Johnny's friend in love with Nora, was taken by Howard Seitert; Mrs. Edmonton, an ultra modern mother, Eleanora Wilondek; Edmond Edmonton, her son, a four-flusher, Harris Hoeffel: and Katie Schwartz, an obliging neighbor with a German accent, was played by | Jeanette Etall.

OES SSS SSS SS SSS NG SS SSS ESS SSS ESS eee BUSY BEE CLUB The Busy Bee Club has progressed very nicely in the past nine years and has met all of the requirements of a club of its size. The purpose of the club is to raise money for church benefit and to present its members with knowledge of parliamentary law and how to act in public. In the fall meeting of '39 new officers were elected. They were as follows: Howard Siefert, president; Eugene Beber, vice-president; Teresa Muzzillo, secretary; and Ellen Miceli, treasurer. These officers met with much success. In January new officers were elected to relieve the old ones. They were Joan Simon, president; Corinne Manstield, vice-president; Clifford Kobi, secretary, and Jerome Steigmeyer, treasurer. This last half of the year proved very successful too. . During the year the Busy Bee Club donated one of the windows in the church. Enter- tainment sponsored by the club has increased with the introduction of the one act plays. Since these past years have been successful to a great extent we look forward to a more successful year in the near future. HOWARD SEIFERT. GLEE CLUB Op est J woe” Ny vim The songsters of S. J. H. had an interesting year of Glee Club. Some of the students have exceptional voices and their work as well as that of the Glee Club was placed be- fore the public at several performances. On Nov. 30, 1939, the Glee Club sang at the two one-act plays put on by the high school. The songs were sung out of the book “Keep on Singing.’ Selections sung were ‘'Swansea Town, Beautiful Dreamer, Spanish Guitar, and Viennese Lullaby.'' At Christmas time, the club again made an excellent appearance by the singing of “Jesu Bambino.'' Much practice was needed on this song because it was sung in two parts. The students will never forget the ''Ah's. Popular numbers rendered as solos provided entertainment between acts at the three one-act plays presented by the freshmen and sophomores and directed by the juniors on February |. Songs of the ''gay nineties'' were sung by the girls of the Glee Club on March 28 because the boys were in the plays given on that date. Our accompanists were Jeanette Etall and June Thralls. A very enjoyable and pros- perous year was enjoyed by all. ELEANORA WILONDEK. 9) | oo Oe 0 OO
