18 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY j£ (Continued from Page 12) MISS CORBIN For Emergencies WELLS HIGH PHILATELISTS Mary Campbell ' 40 Everybody in high school, from the class of ' 43 to the class of ' 39, whether or not he has a stamp col- lection, is welcome to join the Wells High Philatel- ists, said Miss Dorothy- Lanphear, stamp club ad- viser, when interviewed in Room 116 this afternoon. Many pupils entered the club with only a few stamps and have a fine collection today. Among these is petit Richard Gatineau who adds life and color to the club by his unbounded energy and am- bition. Price Burgess, pride of the senior class, is another active member. This year the club has proved so popular that both a senior and junior group have been formed. The of- ficers of the senior group are: Jack Eaves, president; Thomas Walkinshaw, vice-president; Frank Chipman, secretary- treasurer. Meetings are held once a week. They are varied and planned by the members. I believe, Miss Lan- phear went on, that the upper classmen remember most vividly last year ' s auction when Price Burgess, acting as the bickering auctioneer, sold stamps. The room was elaborately decorated and of course the guests were served ice cream, she added. But why, some one asks, do we collect stamps anyway? Stamps are educational. A real study of stamps will disclose many historical facts. Above all, the collection of stamps is a hobby that will not end with one ' s high school days but may be carried on as a use- ful pastime later on in life. Why even Lionel Bar -- ' - more collected stamps in You Can ' t Take It With You. Price Burgess and Robert Morse walked off with beautiful blue and gold ribbons after winning first prize in the stamp exhibit held in Room 116. Fred Morse took second prize, and Robert Olson and Evelyn Kathan were tied for third. It might be interesting to know, Miss Lanphear added in conclusion, that Evelyn Kathan won third prize with only one stamp and a write-up. A A A A A A MR. SNELL MR. PARAGHAMIAN Watch For Our JANUARY CLEARANCE SALE The Biggest Ever GOODWIN BROS. DRAMATIC CLUB This year the Dramatic Club is under a new head, Miss Rose Brodeur. We wish her the best of luck with it. So far the Club has been doing things and getting places. Already the members have been to Boston to see Whiteoaks, starring Ethel Barrymore. After the play the excited group went to satisfy their hunger pangs at the Russian Bear. (Don ' t you love the name? ) The officers of the Club are: president, Mary Weiss- ner; vice-president, Elaine Bousquet; secretary, Eliz- abeth Costa; treasurer, Priscilla Eccleston; and sec- ond vice-president, Barbara D ' Arcey. The Club has a number of new members this year and it seems to be a very enthusiastic group. (Mary Weissner — Madam President! — has her trials and troubles.) The meetings are held every other Wednesday in the auditorium. The dues are ten cents a meeting. At the second meeting, the play Sardines was given. It was directed by Gloria Mannie. The charac- ters were portrayed by: Yolanda Barbierri, Esther Lenti, Nancy Blakely, Anne Robbins, and Shirley Matys. It was extremely well presented and a char- acter role by Yolanda Barbierri, was played to perfec- tion. At the same meeting, representatives of the Club were elected. The senior representative is Dora Kendall; junior, Kay Traynor; sophomore, Ruth Row- ett; freshman, Gertrude Bouvier; and a member at large , Bob Dyer. The next program to be presented by the Dramatir Club is to be a Christmas Play. Mary Weissner and Elaine Bousquet are the directors. So here ' s to the continued success of our new Dramatic Club and to its new adviser, Miss Brodeur. STUDENTS Dufaulf- Typewriter Company 23 Hamilton St. Southbridge, Mass. Tel. 1806
