I was happy that four years of hard work finally payed off in my final season, stated Fred. The play l'Softly as in a Morning Sunrise, selected for group interpretation, was per- formed five years ago and was repeated because of its popu- larity. l picked this play be- cause it is humorous and fun to work with, stated Mr. lan Benjamin, director. The contest play, Brighton Beach Memoirs, took place in 1937 in Brooklyn. The play was about the warm feeling of a family relationship and the im- portance of keeping the family together. Students playing the roles had to learn the lewish inflec- tion and the Brooklyn accent. This play was new and never performed by any other high school in the nation, and I thought it would be challeng- ing, stated Mr. Tim Sweeny, director. Speech Contests B5

The answer was depart- ment club members. Students who participated in German Club, French Club, Spanish Club, Social Studies Club, FTA and Ornamental Horticul- ture Club all had one thing in common - fundraising. Members of the foreign lan- guage department clubs sold t-shirts, candy, and calendars to earn money to attend a for- eign language camp. Social Studies Club held several candy sales. Profits from the sales went toward funding members participat- ing in an organized trip to Eur- ope. Horticulture Club highlight- ed special events by selling flower arrangements. During the Christmas season, wreaths and center pieces were sold. Top p1'i01'1'ty funds Extra wreaths were made and donated to local nursing homes. Money from the Good Luck Flower sale went to var- ious club activities. FTA set up a scholarship fund for graduating members. Posters were sold to earn mon- ey for the fund. Unlike the other department clubs, Great Books Club and lr. IAD did not sponsor any fund raising activities. Great Books Club met on a regular basis to discuss pieces of litera- ture. As a special activity, lr. LAD, a club that offered hear- ing impaired students a chance to participate in school activities, had a roller-skating- pizza party. The department clubs fund raising activities provided stu- dents with a large selection of goods at reasonable prices. As a result, the entire student body profited from the sales. Department Clubs B7
