As the curtain went up on the Dramatics Club for the year, they were preparing to enter various oratorical and speech contests. Stone Ridge was well represented by this group for they captured second place in the citywide :om- petion. Their success was inspired by the able direction of Mrs. Mary Kelly, the dramatics coach. The high point of the year was the present- ation in early May of several exerpts from Alice in Wonderland' The scenes given were Wflie Caterpillern, The Duchess and the Cook The Teapartyn, The Croquet Came , The Mock 'lurtle', and The Trial . The production rendered a clever adaptation of l,ewisClarroll's nonsensical fairytale to the enjoyment of all, And so the curtain was rung down amidst great applause after a year of successful dramatics.

UHlMlTHlfLlH Resolved: that the federal government should sustain the prices of basic farm com- modities at not less than 9042, of parity. Stone Ridge participated in four debates on this topic during the year. They debated with the other schools in the area who belong to the Washing- ton Catholic Forensic League. The record of the debating squad was excellent. For the first time, this year there were both a junior and a senior team in the debating squad. There were twojunior teams: one affirm- ative, one negative: and three senior teams: two affirmative, one negative. In addition to having a fine record for the year, the girls on the squad have learned much about the plight of the farmer and they all have definite ideas on agricultural aid. Those who like a friendly argument' cer- tainly put their aptitude to a practical purpose.

Xmong the oil paints and water colors in the cottage basement the ftrt Club dabbled under the skillful direction of Mother Putman. Using oils they painted portraits, and in water color their favorite dreams became realities on the canvas, lo make pottery, they learned the in- tricasies of the potter's wheel and the kiln. Finally in June all the creative attempts were displayed-hard work had gone into them but so had talent and true enjoyment,
