Suzanne Bounds was program chairman, and Doris Ripple represented the club at monthly Inter Club Council meetings at the Y. W. C. A. in Johnstown. An initiation in the form of a spaghetti supper was conducted in October. In October the club sponsored a pep dance and in December, a "Can-Can Dance." The admission to this dance, one can of food, was to supplement the Christmas basket of food sent to a needy family, the club's annual service project. The Y-Teens undertook the sale of pencils printed with the basketball schedule to raise money for the Y-Teen Prom held in co-operation with the Junior Y-Teens. |

 With Lillian Zvolerin as president and Miss McLaughlin as adviser, the Dramatics Club enjoyed a successful year. Other officers included Sonia Beeghley, vice-president; Mary A. Severine, secretary; Phyllis Horvath, treasurer; Miriam Lehman, program chairman; John Ripper, parliamentarian and Betty Mickle and Gloria Grimes, historians. In October, the initiation party was held, and in November, the club gave its three-act play, a comedy, called "Girl-Shy." After the play, refreshments were served in the Music Room, and the cast mingled with the audience. The club was divided into five troupes, and each troupe produced a one-act play for the programs at club meetings. Plans were made for a trip to Pittsburgh to see a professional production and the annual Thespian banquet to initiate new Thespians.
To become a Thespian, one must first earn eight points in the Dramatics Club. Points may be earned in many ways such as participating in plays, serving on committees and as officers, to name a few. The Thespians had Roland Wise for their president; Suzanne Bounds served as secretary.

Mr. Cassler chooses these students to keep traffic in the halls running smoothly. They also open the doors and turn on the lights in the halls. The very few accidents are in a large part due to the efficient handling of hallway traffic. |
