20 THE HIGH SCHOOL HERALD EDITORIALS This year, Commencement comes at a troubled time. No more is this world progressing along normal lines, but every American is striving to strengthen this country in the war against the Axis. There is so much to be done, and high school graduates can certainly do their part. They can work in defense plants making airplanes, tanks, bombs and other weapons of destruction. The boys can join the army, navy, marines, or any branch of the service when they are old enough. Girls can do their part on the home front keeping up morale and in general helping in every way they can. Thus, today, t here are plenty of opportunities if one just has the determination to find them. Angela Gragnolati, ' 42 ON SEEING THE PLAY “MACBETH” After seeing the play Macbeth this winter at Bushnell Memorial, 1 was impressed by the main character, Maurice Evans. His speech was excellent and his actions were so impressive that I felt that Macbeth himself were before me. On the whole I enjoyed the play and agree that it was a fine pro¬ duction. Each actor, from Maurice Evans down to the page, did his part well. My interest was held throughout the play. The scenes w r ere effec¬ tively enacted, and the lighting etfects and colors added a great deal to the success of the play. Each character, I feel, was well chosen. For example, Lady Mac¬ beth, w T ho is Judith Anderson in real life, w r as exceptionally good. Her acting changed according to situations very satisfactorily. I could not begin to give each actor the credit that he deserves. 1 can only say that I w r as not disappointed in the least with anyone and I am glad that I did not miss the opportunity to see the stage production of “Macbeth.” Let us hope that high school pupils in the future may have the opportunity to see other great dramas enacted by famous actors. Bernice Glista, ' 42.
