Actors Adapt to National Rule pians this year was the One-act Play Festival. Representatives from clubs trod the board in nine productions, from which three winning plays were selected for the December finals. To handle this ambitious project, Thes- pians, under Sponsor Eileen Kelly, admitted new members according to the national standard points system, requiring 10 points for acting, pro- 'duction and directing dramatic ac- tivity. Honoring outstanding advanced French students, the Societe Hon- oraire de Francais became the school's first language honorary. With linguistic ability recognized, both group and sponsor, Mrs. Linda Craig, encouraged members to speak and read French as a true second tongue.
