One of the major events of the school year is the production of the Senior Play. Second in dramatic importance is the Upper Mohawk Valley Drama League Contest which this year was held at Whitesboro. Both of these events are regularly super- vised by Miss Dorothy Dey of the English Department. We also have a Senior Dra- matic Club, a junior Dramatic Club, and a Radio Broadcasters Club. The latter two are sponsored by Miss Reiman and Miss Roschek, respectively. We present herewith a few scenes from the year's dramatic offerings.

Senior Service Club The Senior Service Club was organized in September, 1938, with Frederick Hollister, head of the Social Science Department as sponsor. Its sole purpose is to do everything that it can and may for the benefit of the Whitesboro Central School and its student body. During the current year its members served as ushers at every afternoon and evening affair held in the school. These included P. T. A. meetings, basketball games, banquets, plays, speaking contests, etc. The club also has super- vision over the school's monitor system and noon and afternoon dismissals. Some members will have performed more than 100 hours of service by the end of the school yC21l'. Marion Hughes. Senior Service Club President, ushers two P. T. A. members to their seats.

The junior Service Club was organized because of a decided need for patrols before school in the morning, at noon time and after school at night. These con- scientious vvorkers often arrive as early as 8 o'clock in order to be present to open necessary doors and do other early morning duties. The entire student body and fac- ulty realize the importance of this work and junior Servicers are highly respected by young and younger alike. Mr. Howard McCabe of the Science Department is sponsor. President Pare, makes assignments for hall duty. door custodian, etc.. to his jun- ior Service Club. Membership increased so rapidly that it was necessary to hold this meeting in the library.
