A Lincoln High School Dramatic Club was organized early
in March with the following officers: President, Mary Losee;
Vice-President, James Hutchins; Secretary, Elverta Jones;
Treasurer, Inez Haller. Forty-six students were enrolled at the
initial meeting.
Owing to the small number of Seniors attending the Lincoln
this vear it was thought advisable to organize the club with the
help of the Juniors, and the majority of the members were from
the '09 class. Besides making a larger and better club this
gave the Juniors an opportunity to get preliminary training for
next year—something no dramatic club has yet had in Seattle
High School history.
The club was handicapped by getting a late start, but made
up for this disadvantage by enthusiasm and hard work.
No play has been presented at the time of writing, but "The
Garroters" will be presented before the end of the semester.
A few pleasant programs have been given. One of the best
of these was a dialogue entitled "A Pair of Lunatics," by Beatrice
Austin and Mr. Porter. Both parts were rendered especially
well, and it was but a forerunner of what was yet to come.
The club extends its cordial thanks to Mr. Saunderson, who
gave his time and experience to the work.
