.. RAP becomes largest club The Royal Academy Players had a slow start this year but with the help of sponsor Kay Randolph and president Laura White the club took part in quite a few activities. The first meeting held was in early September, when it was brought into view that the club's membership had increased this year to a grand total of one hundred and twenty-five members. Miss Randolph, a newcomer to Harding from the Dallas area, began the year by putting on a one act play "Impromptu," which brought the truth of life to reality and took away the facade so many possess. This was accomplished by a short skit "D.U.C.K. Radio." This year, instead of the typical Christmas play, the drama class pieced together sections of "Feifer's People," a comical look at life through the eyes of several individuals. This was presented in chapel on December 14, because of the shortage of time before Christmas vacation. Miss Randolph was especially excited about the spring play, "A Man Called Peter," which portrayed the life of Peter Marshall. This was performed by the RAPer's in early spring. The Student Association Executive Council met during the summer with faculty and administration to discuss plans for the new building. The SA also planned the traditional beginning-oF-school mixer and ice cream supper this year. An alumnus group ~ the Spectrum - provided entertainment. A Faculty-Student softball game in the fa ll was set up by the SA; the faculty won 11 to 6. A junior high skating party and one for the senior high were well-attended. In February the SA sponsored a weekend retreat at Camp Wyldewood, where students and faculty all grew closer to God and one another. 1. SA OFFICERS. Shirley. Vinson. Pryor. 2. LIBRARY CLUB.
