And Drama Entertained Us • • • Ed and Sam portray a tense moment in "Seeds of Suspicion." A typical rehearsal for "Meet Me in St. Louis." Who has never felt a shiver of excitement when the word "stage" is mentioned? Who has never felt a desire to be on the stage with its maze of lights glaring down on him? Few would answer "yes," and the Harding Academy DRAMATIC CLUB is no exception. Eighty-two students make up the Dramatic Club with Harvey Arnold as sponsor and Jim Hayes as assistant director. Club members assisted in the production of two plays- "Seeds of Suspicion," which was taken to the Speech Festival, and our senior play, "Meet Me in St. Louis. " Even though it was hard work at times , all of us participating will remember these experiences as belonging among the happiest moments of our lives. Backstage work keep Joe, Fred, and Jim well occupied.
