Library C lub ' 4 fw U sbers Club The purpose of this group is to learn ushering from experience and at the same time to render service. The ushers are a great help at the senior and junior plays, Christmas and musical programs, baccalaureate and commencement, and even at the teachers' conventions.

Before one can receive an emblem, she must usher for three activities. The officers this year are: president, Viola Sehlkeg vice-president, Joyce Curtis, secretary-treasurer, Frances Papciak.

The play netted the class a handsome profit as the auditorium was packed both evenings. A modern stage set the background for the hilarious adventures of Eddie, a teen-aged boy, who wanted to become a crooner. Darrell Pope, as Eddie Barry, imagining that he was a famous singer, caused a sensation when he crooned into a tea strainer representing a mike . Perhaps the most realistic scene of the play was the quarrel between Mother and Father Barry portrayed by Mary Lou Judd and Bob Hefty. As one lady in the audience commented, It seemed just like home! The entire class is to be complimented on a performance that no one in the class of '48 will forget. Clarence Murphy, our director, was that essential cog which every play needs. His help and patience were appreciated by everyone. ,Cr Ky K 3
