(DobaisL Squad, Resolved: “That the Powers of the Federal Government Should Be Increased.” Such was the problem held constantly in the minds of the debating squad all year long.

QuuUl.! CjuaLcwl! “Fireman, Save My Child.” This is the familiar phrase to all persons seeing the first performance offered by the Westwood High School Dramatics Class. The “Child” mentioned was a dog, and it added humor to the surprise ending of a perfect performance. Next on the roll call of plays came a drama starring “Pud” McVey. The name of the play was “Thank You, Doctor”. Confidentially, “Pud” was the doctor. For a novelty, the class initiated the push-button style this year under the super- vision of Bill Hittcnberger and Harry Stephens. The Dramatics Class also pro- duced their Christmas play “La Pinata” with a colorful Mexican setting. “One Mad Night” will always be remembered by those who saw James Saborido as John Alden with his shotgun chasing Fred Funk, the playwright, riding a broomstick. It was produced for the benefit of the Scholarship fund. All members of the Dramatics Class participated. The cast was headed by Evelyn McVey and Fred Funk with Richard Mix and Shirley Kreus as guest actors. The restless three acts brought to mind “The Bat” and “Tiger House” of past years.
