To show to Coach Fulmer their appreciation for all he had done for them, all the football boys ehipped in and bought a earving set for him. Every week a member of the Club gave a report on some sport-baseball. soccer, ping-pong, and others. The idea was to have, each week, a new sport, or event pertaining to sports. The week before Christmas each one gave a quarter toward a basket for the poor. The basket ol' food-seleeted by Y'Vylie Barrow-was delivered by a com- mittee on the night before Christmas. 7,7 1 THIRTY THE CUB

Blanche Ciblzens, lirst semester speech teacher, had llliilly in- teresting lllCClll1gS with the chilz. One ol' the most interesting was a lessoII in stage lllE1liC-UID. At the beginning ol' the sccond semester ptriod Virginia Coyle took over the club. lllanting to do something progressive tl1e club IIlCIUlJCl'S decided to produce :I moving picture. They set to work iininediately, and soon were ready to go with a play written by Joanne Cittinger, Arthur Scliutxinann, and Sidney Haynes. 'lhey were all very disappointed when tlIey lound that dIIe to unexpected Com- I plications, they would be unable to continue their project. The meetings were continued with various activities, and later given over to the production ol' the Senior plays. 'l'he casts lor the two Christmas plays were taken from the Drama Club. They enjoyed the opportunity for acting and leel that all such opportunities are very helpful to them as individuals. The year, as a whole, was a very successful one lor the Drama Club.
