Secretary and Trearurer Everyone must have some means of self-expression, and those who Wish to portray comedy and tragedy turn naturally to Puppets. Many do turn but for one reason or another fail to obtain the number of points required. It takes a great deal of interest and an endless amount of Work to become a member. That is Why those who are Puppets feel that it is really a great honor to belong to this organization. This club was started in 1925 and each year has grown larger and undertaken more diflicult projects. In the year 1932, the Puppets produced Death Takes a Holiday and this year A Nlurder Has Been Arranged. In the spring, the new members are tapped and are made Puppets at a formal dinner held in Niay. These incoming members are from the Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes. As has been stated, they are made members after they have accumulated the required number of points which may be earned by Working on any phase of a dramatic production. The Puppets for 1933-1934 are: Helen Eckert Nlary L. Matlaclc Elizabeth Harris Nlarjorie Slider Cecilia Gordon Nlarjorie Breuer cxxxix

P roperty Mist1'e55 The Dramatic Board is an organization in which all classes of the college are represented. The members of the Board are elected by the school on a basis of their dramatic activity and ability. The Board controls all the dramatic interests of the college and has as its function, the maintenance of a high standard of dramatic activity on the campus. Each year, the Dramatic Board sponsors the Class Competitive Plays, which are a series ol one-act plays given by each of the four classes in competition. The Board endeavors to make these plays worthwhile entertainment, at the same time causing a dramatic spirit and interest to pervade each class. This results in a general participation in clramatics. cxxxviii

We needed it so badly and built up our hopes so high that We were a little afraid that it might not come up to our expectations. -But it has-. Now the college year is just one round of athletic activity. Hockey, soccer, volley ball, basketball, swimming, baseball, track, archery, and tennis follow each other in rapid succession. It doesn't matter whether a girl participates just because she loves athletics or merely with a view to losing a little excess poundage, the interclass rivalry develops a line spirit of comradeship among the members of the teams of all classes. Another phase of the Athletic Association is the Outing Club which sponsors breakfast hikes, overnight hikes, and--just plain hikes. The Athletic Association and the Directors of Physical Education try to cooperate with each other in every way possible. This is Well shown in such major events as the A. A. Picnic, the Gym Nleet, May Day, and the A. A. Banquet. It is this spirit of cooperation which will cause the W'. C. A. A. to grow by leaps and bounds. Wie can predict nothing but success for the future. cxl
