Thespians U High's Thespian troupe was part of a national organization which honored senior high students who were extremely active in the theatre. Under the direction of Mr. Donald Fogelberg, speech instructor, student actors, actresses, and technical assistants were required to meet the standards set up by the national organization. A point system was used to determine whether a student had met the requirements. A student who had a major role in a play could obtain from seven to ten points and a student who worked on crew could earn from five to fen points. A total of ten points was necessary for admission to the group. Interested students formally applied for membership in the Thespian troupe. If they were occepfed, they were given a certificate and card of congratulations from the national organization. These were presented at the annual banquet and initiation held during spring quarter at Coffman Memorial Union. 26
