McCracken, '27, Dies on May 18 Two weeks before the class of 1927, with whom she entered Central State Normal School, will be receiving the diploma which she liad once thought would be hers, Cleda Jane McCracken, of Altoona, died in the sanitorium at Cresson. Cleda entered here two years ago, one of a large group of friends and classmates who had graduated together from Altoona High School. The cheerfulness whicli had won them to her quickly extended her circle of friends here. She made a highly creditable scholastic record throughout the flrst term, and had entered upon the second before the illness which flnally forced her withdrawal began to trouble her. Just after the Easter holidays she left, to rest and recuperate at her home. From there she went to the sanitorium at Cresson, from where she continued to keep in touch witli her friends here, her always cheerful letters arriving regularly, her interest in everything at this scliool unflagging. Despite soma warning signs the news ol her death at 12:30, May 18, came with surprising shock. Slie was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank McCracken, of 5902 California Avenue, Altoona. Following tlie funeral services at her home on May 22, slie was buried in Rose Hill Cemetery. Junior Prom Committee Have Plans Completed "Gee, I just can't wait until Saturday, May 7. I know the Prom is going to be the biggest affair we've had this year. I'm so glad it's semi-formal, too, because George just hates to wear a Tux." "Didn't Clarence Williams siiow college judgment though when he booked up Gene Nobles from Bucknell to supply the music? He knows wliat kind of music college girls like." "I heard the gym was to tae transformed into an old fashioned garden, with the springiest colors; pale green and yellow. Leave it to Lita Bressler and her committee to frame up some clever ideas." "I also happened to get an inkling of what kind of programs we're having. I was talking to Retaa Jolmson, chairman of the committee, and she happened to let it slip. The same color scheme used for the decorations is carried out in the programs. She said they were the best looking programs we've ever had." "I couldn't flnd out what the Juniors are going to give us to eat, b u t I do know t h a t Ruth Adams and Louise Young are on the refreshment committee, so we can rest assured it will be something appealing to the appetite." "Tlie only objection I have to the dance is we're only allowed to dance from eight-thirty u n t i l eleven-thirty. I thought perhaps we would be permitted to dance until twelve tliis time taecause it is tile last dance this year." "Too close to Sunday!" "See you there?" "With bells on, old thing. G'by." Juniors Select Cast for "Kempy" For their class play the Juniors, Instead of choosing tliree one-act plays as t h e former classes have done, decided upon one three-act play, "Kempy," written by J. C. Nugent and Elliott Nugent. I t is a delightful comedy concerning a family of small-town people who, though wealthy, desire to live comfortably and peacefully, but not to show off. One daughter, however, differs from her parents in this respect and tlie scenes between the family, her flance, and herself are very realistic and amusing. The cast includes Earl Smitli as Kempy James; Albert Hobba, Duke Merrell; Ray Zaner, " P a " Bence; Dent Bowser, "Ben" Wade; Margaret Coira, Ruth Bence; Helen Williams, Catherine Bence; Mary App, "Ma" Bence, and Reba Johnson as Jane Wade, This characterization ot small-town people is clean, naturally funny, true-to-llfe, and will tae very entertaining on t h e evening of May 27.

Her scratched arms and hands were busy picking raspberries as slie moved down the long row of bushes fllling the baskets and placing tliem in the crates ready for tlie alter supper delivery. There were four of these long rows, and Chub liad promised to pick two; taut instead lie had sneaked away to join tlie members of his basketball team. When lie came home he would be p u n ished, but Sister would pick the berries. This was not the flrst time she had done his share wliile he took the punishment and went cheerfully to bed. But Sister liad been invited to join a bunch of girls tills afternoon to go berrying in a nearby woods, not for dollar and cent but for pleasure and adventure; if she had to pick Cliub's share she couldn't go. As slie neared the end of tlie rows she became more determined slie would not pick Chub's. She placed her last box in the crate, looked back at the house, and ran to join tiie girls. As Chub, whistling a popular tune, was coming down the hill toward home and supper, he was surprised by Sister's Joining liim at the meadow gate. "Wliere have you been?" he asked. "Out in the woods with the girls," she answered. "Did you pick the berries?" "I picked my siiare, but not yours." "Oil, Gee! Now I suppose I'll have to take two lickens. A fellow always has to take a girl's lickin'. Ain't that just like a girl to taawl tilings u p ? " "I'll take my own llckins, thank you, Mr. Chub," replied Sister snappily. "Didn't mother tell you to stay till they were all picked? Wliat did you r u n away for? Girls are supposed to mind their mothers." "Where do you get that stuff? I picked my share. Mother told you to stay, too, taut you ran away." As they stepped on the porch the half fllled crate stared at them. When they entered the house grave looks greeted them—from both parents. "Where have you been, son?" "Playin' baseball," said Chub. "Ran away," quickly replied his sister. "I picked mine but I'm all done doin' Chub's." "I'll take her lickin'," offered Chub. "She's just a girl." "I'll take my own llckin's," responded Sister. "You can't correct it that way, son. It sounds noble to offer to bear the punishment, but how noble was it to r u n away and let her do the work?" Sister will have to go to bed after supper for disobeying mother. You will have to fill the crate if you have to do it by lantern j light. Put some cookies in your pocket and go to work." | As Chub worked he raved on ataout girls. How many baskets was that? Only six. Ten more to do and it was nearly dark already. Turning back, he stumbled over something and lieard Sister giggle. "They can't see me," she whispered. "Mother tucked me in bed, but I can get back without taeing caught. I'll help you. Chub. I won't do it for you, b u t I'll do it with you." Sister was right, he thought, b u t of course it wouldn't do to let her know. But weren't girls the limit thougli? Handsome New Catalogs in Strong Demand Lucky is the undergraduate who has had a good, long look a t t h e fifty-first annual catalog of Central State Normal School, both because of its very real beauty and because of the great demand from prospective students, which iias kept the offlce force busy mailing copies just as fast as the printer has taeen atale to supply them. Two thousand copies went out In the flrst mailing, a record number, of course, and hundreds have been mailed almost daily since. Tliroughout the year inquiries by hundreds had come to the offlce. These inquirers received flrst attention. That flrst mailing stimulated such a demand tliat the original order has had to be increased several times. Beautifully Printed Tlie catalog is unquestionably the handsomest the school has Issued. It is bound in leather-grained taupe fabric, witli reinforcing fly-leaves in lighter fabric. The eighty-two pages, 'almost double the number last year, are beautiful examples of attractive typesetting, and the tliirty-three photographs, all new this year, show almost every angle ot scliool life. New Features Outstanding features not found In previous catalogs are the many pages devoted to the special kindergarten training which only Lock Haven has been authorized to offer in Pennsylvania, the addition of the four-year curricula for degrees in all courses, facsimiles of the certiflcate presented to tliis institution last year authorizing it to grant college degrees, a helpful tabulation of the total cost of normal school education here, the new requirements for admission and certiflcation, and an ampllfled sketch of the school buildings and school life. Among the many Illustrations are a scene from the Senior play this year; twelve views of training school activities, from regular class work to the May Day pageant; the glee cluta, the orchestra, the girls' taaskettaall and hockey teams, the boys' football and taaskettaall squads, etc. "Yes, ma'am, I can do anything from scrutabing floors to knitting socks. My last mistress told me that I was about the best hired girl she ever had, and believe me, that's saying something. "Yes's, the reason I left is taecause they just didn't have the wages I asked for. Her husband is a lazy good-for-nothing, and he just sits around all his spare time instead of trying to earn a little something. I don't intend to work for n o t h ing. "The mistress she was pretty crank at times, too. She often bawled me out, and that's a thing I just won't stand for. I'm old enough to tell whether I'm doing a thing right or not. "Yes'm . . . No'm . . . Well, it was like this: One Monday morning when I had a big washing to do (they always did have the biggest washes) well, their little son Jack was pestering me a powerful lot. I got sort of mad, you know, like any one does, and I dipped Jack up and down in a tub ot water maybe three times. The missus had to come in just then, and did slie land on me! Why, she bawled me out so I felt like a two-cent piece. "After that was all over, well, I told lier I wouldn't stay under her roof two niinutes longer. That is part of tlie reason I lelt. After I said that, she said slie couldn't pay the wages I wanted anyliow. "It was a pretty nice place, though, taut they didn't seem to treat me like one of the family. They have a swell auto, which isn't paid for yet and between you and I, I don't believe it ever will be, and, mind you, they never took me for a ride in it once. Guess they tliink they're better t h a n me. "And another thing I didn't like was tliat tliey made me do too much work. No matter how much I had to do, she always made me dust the whole downstairs every day. You know It isn't good on the furniture to dust it too often, and their furniture—well, it was bought on llie instalment plan, and if it holds together until all the Instalments is paid, all I have to say is they'll be lucky. "We just dust twice a week at home. Ma said she couldn't afford to tae buying new furniture every whipstitch. 'Course, every one has their own ideas ataout such tilings. "They were the only people I ever worked for who squatabled so much over nothing. Once wlien they were having a big fussing time I went in, and mind you, the missus put her arms around her husband just as quick, and said, 'Of course I'll go to the movies tonlglit, dear.' You see? Deceiving like. Believe me, when my ma and pa starts to squabble, they don't stop for nothing. "Funny folks, them Smiths were. Why . . ." (The telephone bell rings . . . I n terlude). "Your husband got a maid lor you, and he's bringing her out tonight? Well, if t h a t aint just like a man. You needn't tell me how you feel about it. I haint married myself, but I know just how it goes. I bet if I was I'd soon train him not to go interfering in my work. "Oh, that's all right. Sure . . . But don't forget. If you ever need me to help you out some time I live right out at the end of Chubb Street. Just ask for Snyders; any one can show you. The folks would be right glad to see you. Just you come out. "Goodbye." Girl's Glen Road Is Improved The road between tlie main building and the training school, leading up Girl's Glen was repaired by the City Commissioners this last week. It was In a very bad condition, taeing covered with cinders and full of holes. It supplied the training school with an unlimited supply of dirt, but now it Is a wellgraded, smooth, clean street. All the drives and roads ataout t h e school could tae Improved also, and it would add much to tlie appearance of our school.

Psychologists Hear Dr. Blanchard at Banquet {Continued from Page 1) Miss Merrells, in presenting the guest of honor, spoke of her work witli the late G. Stanley Hall, president of Clark University. Dr. Armstrong emphasized the fact t h a t the teachers must have t h e closest co-operation of the parents as well as other factors in the community which tend to t h e welfare of the child: the church, the press, and the children ill school. Ursula Ryan, Johnstown, Pa., acted as toastmistress. Dorothy Bickel, of Lock Haven, gave an interesting account ot the administration of the intelligence tests by Miss Merrells in 19 one-room schools of Clinton County. A total of 1,500 tests were administered. Mrs. J. Franklin Long, M.A., who has been a special student in psycliology this year, gave a resume of the first year's work, telling of the preparations made by Miss Merrells for the Health Conference conducted by Dr. Mary Riggs Noble, last December, and the mental, personality, education, motor and rhythm tests administered to the pre-school children by the members of the class.

In fact there are rumors that the fraternity brother who introduced lilm to the society of the campus elect has suffered mightily from swinging barrel staves. Pat registered at the university in February. His Cadillac, golf sticks and pet bull dog soon won him seductive advancements from the taig fraternities. They rushed him. Of course they showed him tlie addresses of local taootleggers. A few days ago twenty-flve strangers arrived In Payetteville and pounced u p on eighteen bootleggers. They were taken before the United States commissioner. A crew of abashed young collegians was also present. "What do we do with these papers?" the students asked. "These are witness subpoenas. That means you testify against those fellows who have been selling liquor to you." Here one of the students interrupted with, "Look, there's old Murph over there writing on a typewriter. Hey, Murph! Hey, Pat! Wonder what he's doing liere?" "Murphy, eh? Pat Murphy?" one of the prohibition agents drawled. "Boys, that's Wallace from Louisville—prohibition agent de luxe."

The organization grew out of a local society, the Illinois Education Club, which was founded in 1909. On June 8, 1911, this society became incorporated as an honorary educational fraternity. Witli this as a nucleus the organization grew steadily until there are now 37 chapters scattered all over the United States. Alpha Eta Chapter was installed at Cape Girardeau, Mo., on April 25, 1925. The members of Delta Delta Kappa and Alpha Phi Delta, two local fraternities, became the charter members of the Alpha Eta Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi.

Several exquisite special dances were also given, including one representing the dawn and the "Yama Yama Dance." The flnal number was an elataorate May Day festival in which all did honor to the May Queen, who sat on her green throne, after which two groups danced around May poles, winding the gay colored ribbons about the pole in t h e t r a ditional manner. For color, charm and artistic effect and delightful costuming, the dance festival compared favorably with the best of professional performances. Received Flowers Miss Elizabeth C. Rearick and Miss Maloise Sturdevant Dixon, directors of physical training, were presented with baskets of flowers. The judges were Mrs. George H. Diack, Miss Mary E. Baker and Miss Carolyn Williams.

Banquet at Masonic Temple The Zeta Chapter of the Alpha Sigma Tau sorority held their sixtli annual banquet. Saturday evening, April 23, at tlie Masonic Temple. Besides tlie active members and the large number of the Alunini who returned for the occasion, the sorority was honored in having as its guests. Dr. Dallas W. Armstrong, Mr. Ray S. MacDougall, and Miss Fern Amnion. The tables were made attractive witli clever place cards in emerald and gold, and by especially attractive programmes witli mother-of-pearl covers on wliich tlie sorority crest was engraved in gold. Bouquets of butterfly roses were used in prolusion. Interesting features ot the programme included an address of welcome by the president, Josepliine Paul, followed by a piano duet by Lucille Taylor and Martlia Maitland. Miss Margaret Bracken, an Alumnus of the sorority, gave a newsy message from tlie Pittsburgh Alumni Cliapter. An outstanding number on the programme was the double quartet composed of active niembers of tlie Zeta Chapter, accompanied by Miss Fern Amnion. Dr. Dallas W. Armstrong, principal ot the school, gave a most inspiring address in which he stressed friendship as an important phase of scliool life. The last number was a violin solo, "To a Wild Rose," by Josephine Paul, accompanied by Martha Maitland. Helen Shearer, as toastmistress. proved lierself very capable in that role.

Naturalists Stage Gay Spring Frolic Party The Naturalist Club held a very charming Spring Frolic party In tlie gym, Saturday evening, April 9. Those attending had a good ol«i-lasliioned time. Oldfashioned? Yes, for there were relay races of several interesting and enjoyable kinds, a square dance, and round dancing. Mr. Dyck received a very beautiful prize, a parrot, for winning the suit-case relay, one of tiie funniest relays ever known. Another race, a cracker race, which Mr. Ulmer succeeded in winning. For his efforts he received a wonderful whistle. After several other games were played, t h e orcliestra struck up a lively tune and couples formed for a square dance. Now It should tae stated here that there were not very many who knew how to square dance, taut there were some wlio did, and with tlie help of Miss Dixon, more were t a u g h t , so t h a t finally the dance taegan. The orcliestra was the Famous Square Dance Orchestra from Williamsport, led tay Dorothy Camptaell, D. R. B.'s on Annual Picnic The day-room boys held a picnic Saturday, May 21, along the bank of Bald Eagle Creek, a siiort distance below the old covered bridge whicli is being removed to permit the construction of a modern bridge. It wasn't to watch tlie bridge workers tliat the D. R. B.'s chose this place, but because it was tlie scene of last year's picnic. A means of transportation was provided by Rishel Karchner who donated the use of his truck. Some of the gang, upon reaching the Flemington Boat House, liired canoes and paddled up the canal and creek to the picnic site. The eats committee, composed of Walt Miller, chairman, Max Bossert and Bucky Harris, had an abundance of provisions which were consumed without any waste. All then engaged in either canoeing or swimming during tlie afternoon. The swimming, liowever, proved a somewhat chilly sport and was taken in small doses. The Senior members, Clyde Swoyer, William Bitner and David Ulnier were added to the list of Alumni members. Brown Bossert attended the picnic and expressed liis intention to return to C. S. N. S. next September. Dramatic Club Initiates New Members Price Hall was the scene of much excitement on Wednesday evening, May 11, when the new members were formally initiated into the Dramatic Cluta.

But it was an unlucky day and the fates t h a t rule hot dogs had their way, finally. It was this way. The T. H. R.'s, part of the dayroom organization, were all set for a weiner roast. And t h e n it rained. The eats committee, headed by Jerry Taylor, was desperate. After heavy cogitation and weighty deliberation, the weiner roast became a weiner boil. The T. H.

Organizes Track Team Sororities Pledge New Members Before Easter vacation the Alpha Sigma T a u and t h e Bho Omega Lamtada sororities gave o u t six talds to membership.

T.—Kathleen Spangler and Berenice Hammer. j j O. L.—Lucille Rosa, Louise Young, Winifred Harmon, Beatrice Mokle. The Junior High School boys, under the supervision of Gordon E. McCloskey, have organized a track team. Tlie purpose of the team is to make a taeginning in tlie fundamentals of track rather t h a n the development of a winning team. The boys at the present time are devoting their efforts to the dashes, broad Jump, high Jump and pole vault. An interclass meet is planned for the future, b u t as yet no arrangements have taeen made for participation in outside meets. This is a new thing lor the J. H. S. and ought to tae a step forward In the development of good sportsmanship and athletics. At the beginning of the Thanksgiving vacation the Brothers of the Cold Blood met. and a motion made by the writer was uiiaiiimously accepted. Tlie assembly immediately adjourned and the members got busy. By nine o'clock everything was stowed away in tiie old Nash, wliereafter each of the bretliren hit the hay. By four o'clock we were all up, and by five we were taking in tlie scenic beauties of the Coudersport Pike at forty-five an hour. We ran over two rattlesnakes, took Ineffective potsiiots at some grouse, and brought down one rabbit witli a shot from the rear seat. We sang "Sweet Adeline" until it soured, got our eyes, ears, and mouth full of that strong-scented Potter County road dust, and broke our last record by pulling up in the writer's driveway at 7:33, in time for breakfast. After fllling up on pancakes, syrup, and coffee, the gang grabbed the guns: I got two of our hounds, and we opened war on a big slashing over the hill. Now I come from Potter County, where rabbits are rabbits, and my dad regularly kills more rabbits than any other man in tlie township, so I know what real rabbit-hunting is; taut I never saw anything like this before or since. It was a nice cool morning; the sun was just rising over the eastern ridge; you could hear old Sport and Sooner a couple miles; and rabbits ! All you had to do was to sliut your eyes, point your gun anywliere except straight up, pull the trigger, and gather 'em in. The Professor drew the first blood. I kicked one out of a brushpile; bagged him on the run. Buzz downed number three. Then tlie firing became general. Often the shots were following in such rapid succession that they could not be distinguished. The Battle of the Marne may have been a noisy party, taut it did not have a thing on this. The dogs did their best to drown out the continuous booming ot the shotguns, the coursing of those who missed, the warwhoops of those who killed, all mingled up with the shrieks of "Here he comes!" and "There lie goes!" After about two hours the rabbits, deciding that discretion is the taetter part of valor, changed their tactics, and hid themselves behind woodpiles, pump stations, trees, anything big enougli to hide a few hundred rabbits, from wliicli vantage-points they taegan to view with disdain our thin red-backed line of heroes. Wlien they did venture forth their footwork was amazing. I remember particularly one large cottontail who drew the whole group's flre and got away u n scatched. I heard him come galloping and, raising my old LeFevre to my shoulder, drew a careful bead on him and placed a perfect thirty-yard pattern on a big pine stump that he liad Jumped behind. After four exciting hours of wonderful hunting we readied a little clearing hedged in tay young beeches, brownleaved from the early frost of the Alleglianies, where we called a halt and held a powwow. It was a hot argument, b u t it resulted in a return to my ranch to absorb some more Potter County grub, tliougli the return was broken once when, going through a little patch of black- LINTZ'S Wearing berry brush, we found a congregation of cottontails holding something like a family reunion. We collected six of them, wliich fllled our limit. Think it over; Four hours, six men, thirtv rabbits. Rah, rah. Potter County!

It Is very simple, All that you have to do, they say, is to bat tiie ball taack and forth with those queer taig paddles they call racquets, even though once in a while you do seem to liave to soar gracefully Into the air like an aesthetic dancer to do it. "Love-forty," some one says, and the onlooker fails to see at all how hard it is for the player to love any one at all when he is getting licked t h a t badly, "Are you ready?" the server cries, and you determine to get that ball, go after it witli all your might—miss it—and get a near-fracture of the kneecap In the attempt. Oh, it's a wonderful feeling. I've experienced it, I know. By this time your partner, it you have one, is ready to guzzle you. He politely tells you to watch yourself, and to hit tlie next one up and over. But the next one—you hit it; yes, you hit it, but with such force that it dinges the ground on your side of the net and rolls under. You are blushing violently under your sunburn. But Just wait!

Holds to Precedent The other day (it doesn't matter what the exact date was) Coach Dyck took some of the city league baseball players up when tliey challenged the Normal Scliool to a game. The game was scheduled for 4 o'clock but when 4 o'clock arrived not a Normal student was in sight of the field, while tlie city league players had taeen warming up for fully a half liour. However, they came straggling on the fleld one or two at a time till by half past four, eight fellows had gathered. In order to make up the nine it was necessary to enlist every fellow on the fleld whether he come to look on or to play. Pinally "Bing" Miller came charging down over tlie field to make the full team. Russ Bohn was appointed catcher because he had tlie catching glove on at the time. Max Fitzsimmons was told to pitch taecause he had the taasetaall cap on. wliich it was thought might lead the opponents to suspect that lie had played taall taefore. Tommy Larkin was stationed at tliird base because he has a long reach to nail the "Texas leaguers." Jim Renninger was given the short stop position for lie had the best glove. "Bing" was the choice for a second taaseman because this player is handy to talk to the pitcher. Bauman landed the initial sack jota because no one else wanted it. Then Bill Sweet, Tony Boyer, and Matt Shaw were directed to do the running around in the outfield because of their speed and accuracy in spearing flies. For the iirst two Innings those city players didn't hit the taall out of t h e Infleld while the Normal had piled up four runs. Then the tables were turned. It wasn't Miller's fault for he kept up his line till the final Inning of play. The high point of the game came when Bill Sweet cauglit a long fly to keep from taeing hit by it, when Bauman was kidded into making a safe hit, and when "Bing" slid into second base ripping his trousers. The game ended nine to flve in favor of the side that didn't happen to tae C. S. N. S. Had it taeen, a well-establislied precedent would have been broken.

Parent-Teachers Clubs Urged by State Teachers Parent-Teachers' Associations taring the school into closer touch with the community tlian any other means, securing for the teachers a degree of understanding and co-operation at home which re-enforces tremendously all that she is attempting to do in school. This sums up the reasons with whicli Mrs. Geor^-3 S. Prockler, of Johnstown, vice-president of Pennsylvania's State Parent-Teachers' Federation, urged every teacher to' make sure t h a t such an organization exist or is formed in the school in which slie will teach. Mrs. Fockler's talk, at the morning chapel exercise, touched a new subject for such programs, and made a decided impression. Admitting tliat there are parent-teacher associations which have failed to function, Mrs. Fockler went into some detail concerning weaknesses in program-planning, organization, and leadership which can cause such failure. Properly organized associations do not fail, she said; weakly organized associations, weakly lead, are bound to fail, whatever their nature. Such failures can hardly be charged up to the movements, whatever their nature, with which they are connected. Mrs. Fockler guaranteed the willingness of the State Federation of Parent-Teachers' Associations to co-operate in the organization of such associations anywhere; and very briefly suggested how much valuable assistance, in the planning of programs of activity. Interesting meetings, etc., the state association is ready to render. Mrs. Fockler had been visiting her son, a student at Pennsylvania State College. Her interest in tiie worlc had caused her to interrupt that visit in order to carry the federation's greeting and good wishes to the future teachers here in this neighboring institution.

TIMES Play Production Classes Give Two One-Act Plays Tlie play-production classes recently entertained the student taody with two one-act plays, "lataoratory" products of their studies in the auditorium t h e evening of March 30. The flrst play, "The Truth Party," by Bell Elliot Palmer, typified very well some similar t r u t h parties which have taeen held in the dormitory perhaps under another name. The scene was laid In the living room of the home of Mrs. Jane Fitzsimmons, who was entertaining her taridge cluta. As a diversion, one of the members suggested a t r u t h party much against the wishes of the hostess. Aunt Felicia appeared upon the scene just in time to save the party from getting too catty. She succeeded in establishing friendly relations between the members of the club before the party was over. The cast was as follows: Mrs. Jane Fitzsimmons, Hostess Helen Thornton Mrs. Ruth Dewey, Member of the Club Elverda Richardson Mrs. Elinor Doane, Memtaer of t h e Club Geraldine Culver Miss Margaret Larlmore, Member of the Cluta Nell Peters Mrs. Rose Faucett, Member of t h e Club Laura Weymouth Mrs. Ethel Brown, Member of the Cluta Ethelyn Kniss Mrs. Laura Goetael, Memtaer of the Cluta Grace Ott Mrs. Catherine Rawllngs, Memtaer of the Cluta Amelia Martin Mrs. Harriet Rotaertson, Memtaer of the Club Ruth Remaley Mrs. Grace Hayden, Member of t h e Club Bes.se Blackburn Mrs. Rhoda Crowell, Member of t h e Cluta Rachel Lipez Mrs. Elizabeth Lawson, Member of the Cluta Betty Hutaley Aunt Felicia Ramsey, Aunt ol Hostess Leona Hayes The second play, "Six Who Pass While the Lentils Boll," a one-act play by Stewart Walker, tarought the audience into make-taelieve land. The scene was laid in the kitclien of the home of t h e taoy. While the taoy cooked lentils six people passed. The flrst was the queen who, running away from the headsman, was hidden by the boy In liis mother's taedroom. She was sentenced to tae taehead- All Photos ed for stepping on the ring-toe of the king's great-aunt, taut was safe if she was not found taefore the four clocks struck twelve. While the queen was hiding, a mime, a milkmaid, a tallndman, a taallad singer, and a headsman, who were on their way to the decapitation of the queen, visited the little boy. The clocks struck twelve before the headsman found the queen. The taoy was rewarded well for saving the queen. Gwen Stringfellow made a delightful taoy. No one could wear royal rotaes more becomingly t h a n Mary Margaret Adams. The part of the blind man was very well played by Geraldine Donahue.
