Drama Club
By Mary Ann Schaefer,
XIII
The Drama Club of Wingham
District High School is a very
enthusiastic group this year. It's
fifty members are under the
direction of Miss Susan Welsh
and Mr. Mark Forest. The club
meets once a week and is given
instruction on the fundamental
principles of acting.
The highlight of the year is
the play given at the spring con-
cert. This play is chosen by
the s tudents themselves. Vari-
ous manuscripts are studied and
th, n a vote is taken. Once the
play has been decided, poten-
ti 1 actors and actresses try for
a part. This is accomplished
by numerous readings, the final
st''.ection of the cast being made
:he leaders.
However, the drama club is
ea,t only open for those interes-
ted in acting. :lake -up, cos-
tumes, props, and stage-man-
aging are all committees on
which students may serve.
The play for this year's con-
cert has already been chosen
and the club is busy working on
it. Because of the enthusiasm
on the part of both the students
and their leaders this should
prove to be a very successful
event.
Comments from
Student Council
The Students' Council would
like to remind the boys of the
upcoming Christmas Prom on
December 22. Time is running
out. Never before have the
boys had such an opportunity to
save money on a formal dance.
Remember that the Students'
Council is providing corsages.
Please contact your class rep-
resentative if you are planning
to attend.
The Council has recently
made a grant of $350 for the
Camera Club so we expect to
see more activity and perhaps
an increase in their member-
ship. It was the hope of the
Council in making the grant,
that the purchasing of some
photographic equipment might
lessen the cost of the yearbook
in future years.
The student body would like
to thank the public for support-
ing this year's magazine drive.
Total sales were about $3,600.-
00 of which the Student Coun-
cil will receive about $1200.
for their use.

High school students and stu-
dents home from college look
forward to parties as part of the
Christmas festivities.
A good. rule for fun and fel-
lowship at those parties is: keep
it simple, All the ingredients
necessary .are congenial people
and good food,
Buffet service is often ideal
for this kind of informal enter-
taining because everything can
be prepared in advance, free-
ing the host or hostess for mingl-
ing with the guests.
Easy to prepare, yet substan-
tial party fare, can be a tray of
assorted cold cuts and cheeses.
This, together with plenty of
bread and relishes, such as
pickled celery sticks and rad-
ishes, can satisfy hearty appe-
tites without creating a major
production problem in the
food department.
Here's a recipe for a bever-
age that will suit nearly every
tasts. It's neither too sweet nor
too tart.
GOLDEN HOLIDAY PUNCH
6 cups apricot nectar
cup honey
1 cup lemon juice
1 quart ginger ale
Dash of almond extract
Pinch of salt,
Chill the ingredients thor-
oughly and combine just before
serving. This recipe makes
about 21 quarts.
An even simpler beverage to
prepare is condensed canned
beef broth served on ice with-
out diluting. Just add a dash o
Worcestershire sauce, if desire'
