STAGE CREW Stage Crew's primary purpose is to serve the school's needs in connection with backstage production. It also creates and maintains an interest in drama and its production. This club is, no doubt, the busiest and most active at West. Its two biggest assignments this year were the senior speech students' fall play, What A Life, and the spring play, Mrs. McThing. The individual crews co-operated in working on the P.T.A. show, Teahouse of the P.T.A. , as well as on the speech class plays at the end of the First semester. Stage Crew members also worked on the Winter and Spring Concerts, all of the auditorium programs, special Y-Teen Club program, and the Girls' Club Style Show. They provided lighting and public address systems for dances. Stage Crew closed down its season by performing its usual duties at the Seniors' Class Night and at the 1958 graduation ceremony. Stage manager for the year was Iohn Torpy. Vice- presidents were Bill Ferris and Iim Schwalbachg secre- taries were Trudy Iohnson and Kathy Taylor, the assist- ant stage manager was Neal D'Orazio. Mrs. McCarty and Mr. Tews advise Stage Crew.
