TWENTY-FOUR BOB L. MILLER, Class President 7!zef7a1f!aafQZafufaa4aomEM9raz'aS1'aa Our first experience in the casting of the SPHS Studios was a mob scene as uextrasn. We did our part, of course, with perfection, milling and ambling about in a beautiful confusion. Gradually, however, we began to get bit', parts, until finally we were intrusted with the character roll of Palmetto and Pine , Sophomore Edition. We showed the greatest of talent in this production, so much so, in fact, that we were given the honor of helping with the scenery for the immense success, Baccalaureate,' starring the entire Senior Class. We then received a vacation, and were told to return to the casting office the following September. We arrived promptly at the appointed time the following year. This time our roles were a little more important, we were given the opportunity to present a super- epic at Christmas, and we carried it off in truly great style. Again we presented a production with a gigantic staff, this time it was a musical review, Ring Up The Curtainn. All hard-working folks have to have a rest occasionally, and we were no exception. Therefore the annual Junior Carnival was born, and stars and extras romped alike from one booth to another in the two patios. We decided to let the waiting world know what we were doing, so we edited an actor's guide under the title of P. and P., Junior Edition. Also we were finally allowed to attend that annual gathering of the stars--the Prom. Again we were sent to the Scenery Department, this time to help with that super-production, graduation. Unce more we were glven our vacations with the assurance that we were star material and that we would return in September to do great things. For our last year many of our starring vehicles were football pictures and these were played in a truly dramatic style. One of our outstanding productions was Holly- wood Extran, a sensational musical revue. About this time many of our stars were honored by membership in the National Honor Society. Also our screen guide book, the No-So-We-Ea, got under way. Christmas came and with it a reception for the All-Ohio football players. After a gay holiday season we returned to the studio, and in a month were given a true test SS UF
