DRAMATICS Through self-expression and various character portrayals, the girls of the Dramatics Society have greatly improved their acting ability. Construc- tive criticism offered by Mr. Ravetch, faculty adviser, was very helpful in perfecting their tal- ents. Under his direction and that of Sherry Reis- man, leader of the group, Little Womeni' was performed at the Chanuka Chagiga. The Drama- tics Society also serves as an aid in cultivating poise and grace. 00 fro 9 9 9 ra f' q.!,s-I C3 fi f f' I f 0 np Q Q Wm fl!! IM 13

The team, with Anita Rubin as debating manager and Ivan Serchuk as coach, spends much time in preparation for each debate. Constant practice and inter-team debates keep the girls on their toes. Their 5 victories out of 6 debates is veritable proof of their skill.
