ramafic Christopher lllorley and Stoneleigh had a pleasant chat last Fall when the Dramatic Club produced the fOI'Ill6I',S Re- hearsal, a one-act play complete with Irish brogue. The play was particularly adaptable to the facilities in Coleman Hall as neither costumes nor scenery were needed. Now that we have new and beautiful red velvet drapes, more demanding scenic performances can be staged. The Christmas Tableaux were as breath-taking as always and a capacity audience was deeply appreciative. Bliss Henriette Ottesen steps out of her role as Mensen- dieck director to guide the Stoneleigh Thespians in these efforts. Eighteen girls meet with her on hlouday and Friday afternoons throughout the school year. The student director is Betty Ann Moritz whose Junior assistant is Sherrie Stephens. Cosse has a big job as stage manager and does it most competently. At least one more play is anticipated in the Spring, prob- ably out of doors if the custom of former years is followed. This will give the dramatic group a chance to discover fur- ther talent and to indulge in a favorite pastime-acting! This group also sponsors a Spring Fashion Show, a very popular event. The girls themselves have the opportunity to select and model the apparel furnished by a Greenfield department store. The actual participants and the directors obtain valuable experience in this interesting field. The following girls have tread the boards this year: Anne Burnham, Suzanne Campbell, Kate Coleman, Brenda Cosse- boom, Catherine Craig, Nancy Cusack, Suzanne Funston, Margaret Hunt, Karen Just, Lee Maclnnis, Linda Maiuzzo, Betty Ann Moritz, Mary Riley, Stephanie Ritzmann, Carol Robinson, Sherrie Stephens, Gretchen VVustlich, and Nat- alie Yates. In addition to gaining valuable dramatic knowledge the members of the dramatic group attain grace and poise, hav- ing fun all the while. '47 4. gy: .

Whether it's our annual gymkhana or the all day trail ride, the barn is buzzing with excitement, for the Riding Club is responsible for these two events, among other things. The sixteen chosen fewn found it necessary to conquer a dangerous obstacle before becoming a member of the IIoofprints Club -the gruel- ing test prepared by Mrs. Goodyear. Sore muscles and body fatigue in general are quite prevalent after our all day horse shows. Here we try to exhibit our expert horseman- ship, over jumps and hunt courses as well as emulate our idols Whom we saw this Fall in the National Horse Show at hladison Square Garden. The club is ably guided by the following officers: President: Sandy lNIowry Vice-President: Betty Ann lVIoritz Secretary: lNIarian Williams Treasurer: Helen VVoodhull 49
