DEAR LADY BE BRAVE w,u this one-oct ploy. DRAMATIC ART has from the earliest days of man been one of his best forms of self-expression and at the same time self-improvement. The work of the Dramatic Club this year was devoted to the same ends which have been characteristic of the art throughout its history. Our Thursday night meetings were filled with infinite variety. We not only studied the principles of acting itself, with the accompanying arts of make-up and costuming, but gave attention to the staging and production of a play. Our study was not all theory. We put the principles which we studied into practice in the production of oneact plays by members of the club. Our program director, Dick Smith, was ever ready with some new idea which would not only provide entertainment for the meetings, but also increase our skill in dramatic arts. Pantomimes of the facial contortions while shaving. answering the telephone, and other weird human habits were the order of the day, along with individual read· ings and extemporaneous monologues of amusing situations. DRAMATIC CLUB OFFICERS: President, Richord Wol~er; Sponsor, Neldo Holton: Secretory, Lois Benson: Point~eeper. Milrilyn McCluggilge; Vice-President, Did Smith.
