WINTHROP HIGH SCHOOL 5 Dramatics in High School The Winthrop High School Dramatic Club has been more prominent this year than ever before. Many new club members have been elected and have shown a good deal of talent. In the modern high school dramatics has a place in achieving many of the aims of education. First, it gives a student poise, and self confidence which mean much in later life. Second, it teaches the technique of speaking with emphasis, invaluable to any student. Third, it offers students opportunities to develop originality in acting. Dra- matics aside from these three. aids stu- dents in familiarizing themselves with the best in past and present drama. During the year our Dramatics Club has sponsored or encouraged a number of productions. The club, early in the year presented, Here Comes Patricia. The faculty joined the students in pro- ducing a humorous play, The Deestrick Skule , in Februarv. Another interest- ing and beneficial experiment has been the broadcasting of one play a month over radio station WRDO in Augusta. These plays are prepared for schools by Joseph B. Egan, editor of the Egan Monthly Journal of Character Training. The radio plays provide training for those interested in radio as a vocation. In the spring our club entered a One- Act play production, David Copperfield Visits His Aunt , in a district contest held at Leavitt Institute at Turner. The participation in contests of this kind in- spires the competitors to work harder and gives them an opportunity to com- pare their work with others in the same class. The dramatic contribution of the Senior class this year was a successful comedy, Sally-Lou. It has been a year in which many, rather than a few have had an oppor- tunity to find and develop talent in the field of acting in, and producing stage productions. Lucille Frost '36.
