liltmtttt lt could never loe said that a Webster student forgot the old saying, All Work and no play makes tor a dull day. Play is an important item in the activities of the school. This idea is stretched to its fullest length, includ- ing dancing, acting, dining, and promenading. Fun and amusement are around every corner and neither is ever rejected. . Too active? Do We think so? lt would never do to put aside any ot these pleasures. Work may loe incorpo- rated in the planning of the affairs, lout it is always enjoyalole and soon overlooked.

The Webster students went nautical this year and took their audiences for a cruise Aboard the Queen Mary in the College Little Theater. As usual the production was an all student activity. The numbers were the original work of the students. The Goon Girls mixed up their ships, but they and the Sea Hag stole the show as they trucked hither and yon. The Choral Club received much applause doing the salon scene from Roberta , Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire tapped their way to success. There was an exquisite masquerade waltz presenting many pretty pictures. The fat numbahs in I-leave I-lo M'Lassies with their re- ducing antics were unique. The falsetto Rigoletto chorus screeched their way to fame. The Dionne quintuplets were finally discovered by the Captain as the mischiev- ous stowaways, and as they danced, they brought to the forward deck passengers en masse, just in time to march down the gangplank to the tune of Anchors Away .
