The organization was an outgrowth of a unit on Parliamentary Procedure. Officers were elected, and a constitution was written and adopted. Special reports on the history of drama, particularly Shakespearian drama and the reading of Macbeth, have been a part of the club's program. The senior class play, of l957 was selected by the club. A special activity, a short comedy entitled Dooley and the Amateur Hour, which included all members of the club in its production, was presented at the Sheldon P.T.A. February 13, and later for the students at Tony. The club has two specific purposes: First, to practice parliamentary procedure in all of its business meetings: second, to read plays and have fun in presenting them. Thursday, the 6th of December, the Ir. Class gave its play, SEVEN CINDERELLAS, a three-act comedy, concerning Radio-TV people.

Activities: We planned various programs for special events throughout the year such as Veterans' Day and the activity period programs. In addition to this the Student Council helps to select the future lyceum programs. Did Horace, the horse, get the spot on TV that he and Gene wanted? Maybe not, but he drew a lot of attention and many laughs from the audience. It looks like they're get- ting Pat, too. Good acting, folks. s t i..a, ...-, f . -.

Mr. Morris is in a happy mood-- he has just come through another student-driver session without a scratch. Mr. Foizie is happy because he doesn't have to take any risks--he teach- es the book 1arning part of driver-training in the safety of his classroom. I Driver training was inaugurated at Tony in 1945 and was first taught by Mr. Smith. These classes were later taken over by Mr. Foizie and Mr. Morris. This was just the book phase of the course and it is estimated that some 500 students were enrolled during the 1945-1952 period. The beginning of the l953-1954 school year saw the first behind-the- wheel phase of driver training. Blain Motors furnished the driver-training car for that year as well as for the following two years. Since the use of a car in driver-training, Mr. Poizie has had the book phase and Mr. Morris the behind-the-wheel training. Mr. Morris states that to date, 119575 eighty students have completed both parts of the driver's course. 36 Q . 577 . ,. BACK ROW: M. Rindal, L. Evans, A. Schrieber, G. Ianowicz, I. Lorence, M.

In 1956 we planted about 7, O00 trees on our home'farms. We also planted 4, 000 in our school forest. This year, in 1957, we expect to plant about 8, OOO on our farms and about 4, O00 more in the school forest. Also during 1956, we planted 58 eight pound samples of Pioneer corn, 15 samples of Wisconsin Hybrid, and 38 samples of Dekalb corn. Early in the morning of Iune 5, l956, 22 members of our organization boarded the bus for our annual three day trip. Mr. Arts, our advisor, was chaperon and bus driver. We took Hghwy. 8 to Escanaba where time was spent sightsee- ing. Our return trip was by the way of Ironwood, Michigan. A good time was had by all and many of us are looking forward to our next Uip.
