There are no small parts, only small actors. The seed of a new philosophy of theatre was sown among Whiting Thespians by the first year director, Miss Kathy Nicolini, also acting sponsor for the WHS Drama Club 1970-71. This whole new attitude towards dramatics was reflected in subtle changes — the auditorium assuming the professional title “theatre” and a filled-to-capacity theatre arts class, which introduced voice and diction exercises. Ob- vious changes were financed through profits raised by the ad book for the spring musical and December dance. The new curtains purchased and a new cyclorama enlivened the stage setting along with the reusable platforms built by the stage crew. Organization in other areas of production was managed largely by a student staff — an idea initiated just this year. Guid- ing the club through their first really successful year were Mark Kobli, president; Patti Parks, vice- president; Mike Groyza, treasurer; Dorothy Neg- ovetich, secretary; and Gail Thomas, social chairman. L. Homola, P. Huckaby, and M. Kobli are cast members of the spring play production, Flower Drum Song. 66 Students aid in library and concessions LIBRARIANS: Left to right: C. Voight, C. Michalak, K.

Many students spend their free hours in volunteer service as concession workers or librarians. Future librarians earn valuable experience by cataloging new books and reshelving borrowed ones. This year, for the first time, Whiting was rep- resented in the State Students ' Librarians Club. Senior Sheryl Mentink served as nominations chair- man and junior Michelle Baker served as secretary. Volunteers worked at concessions throughout sport seasons for points towards G.A.C. awards. CONCESSION WORKERS: Left to right: N. Geary, C. Hatczel, B. Kubeck, Mrs. Pawlus, M. B. Kucka, B.
