from the Splenuld results, ana we nope
to see them again in something else.
The Military Company held its
weekly drill in the high school gym
nasium last Wednesday evening, jan
uary 18th. Although the attendance
was not so large as might be desired,
the company drilled as is their custom,
this time in platoon movements. The
Military Company, as well as the
basketball team missed Ed Muellner
during his absence. He will resume
his duties as Sergeant next week.
Tuesday afternoon at p. NJ. the
members of last years football team
met in Mr.. Babcock's room Kneeland
Godfrey was elected captain of the
football team for next season. Luck
TO you, Kneelyi
Both our first and second teams viii
pack their jerseys and go to West
Alhs next Saturday. A good game
is expected, so Il is hoped that the stu
dents viii purchase enough cough
drops and tickets and go in large num-
bers.
The Girls Glee Club met last Thurs
day. Miss Rickers directed the prac
tice.
Last Saturday evening Wauwatosa
was badly defeated by Kenosha's
basketball team, the score ending 40
to 10 in their favor. Their success
was due in large part to their ability
to shoot baskets. Our boys played
creditably, however, and we're WITH
THEM STILL WITH ALL THAT'S in
US. The team will soon have its cap
tain back again, and Ed. Koepp will
also be on the team within a week or
two.
Our basketball team has the use of
the Congregational Church Gymnasium
on Thursday nights now.
A Camera Club meeting was held
Tuesday, January 18th. Doris Alborn
talked on the coloring of pictures, and
Mr. Postal explained the pin camera
to the members. The attendance was
much better than usual. Some time
was spent trying to decide upon new
name for the club, but as an appro-
pirate aad original one was not found,
tie Camera Club will retain its name
until suitable new one is found.
The Dramatic Clubs plays were a
brilliant success. The Cardinal Pen
nant funds must have swelled con-
siderably, as the seating capacity of
the Assembly Room was proved far too
small to accommodate the large crowd
that attended. When the curtain had
been lowered for the last time and the
audience had arisen preparatory to de-
parting, it could be observed that
every person in the room was smiling
contentedly; so the entertainment was
unquestionably entertaining.
"Allison's Lad" which partrayed an
historical English scene from the
seventeenth century, showed splendid
work. The entire cast did very well.
Special mention is probably due Robert
Mcintyre; and Glenn Holcomb also
acted with feeling, but it is difficult
to pick out any special persons when
all the players We're so admirable. The
cast of characters follows:
Colonel StricI,l and. -. Glen Holcombe
Captain Bowyer. ........ John Potter
Tom Wildwood, Cavaliers. ....
...............R Robert Mcintyre
Lieutenant Goring Monroe Toussaint
Frank Hopton. ........ Willard Young
Colonel Drummond Ga Roundhead)
.......... Howard Dawley
Stage Electricians ............
-. Paul Jacobs and Arthur Boyd
"a Box of Monkeys" a two-act
play of less serious nature, followed.
This was remarkably we'll done. Sew
eral persons pronounced it the best
dramatic work ever done in Wauwa-
tosa High School. 1t certainly was
splendidly performed. The attractive
little heroine, Florence Peterson, dis
palyed unusual talent. Joseph Bell
proved himself a born actor. Carl
Schmidt, Dorothy Wolcott, and Kath-
ryn Butler were all perfectly at ease
on the stage.
The characters follow:
Mrs. Ondego Jhones Dorothy Wolcott
Sierra Bengaline, her niece. ......
........ Florence Peterson
Edward Rawlston. 49,. Carl Schmidt
Lady Guinevere Landpore. .....
.............. Kathryn Butler
Chauncey Oglethorpe. Joseph Bell
Even the electrical effects were bet
ter than ever before, thanks to Paul
Jacobs and Arthur Boyd.
Miss Cumnock deserves much credit
for the work of her Dramatic Club.
Under the supervision the buds Of
Wauwatosa's genius are beginning to
become discernable.
The success of the Dramatic Clubs
plays may be due in part TO the CO.
operation of Wauwatosa High School
Orchestra. "Stolen Kisses" an over
ture entitled "The Fair Maid of Perth, {"
Hearts and Flowers" and leave BE
With a Smile," were all beautiiri,,
rendered, and added much to the eve
ning's entertainment. The high school
is justly proud of its orchestra.
