pep meeIlnS at WHICH ore Speclal
room is called upon to do stunt.
The eighth grade was chosen last
Wednesday and enacted a play
called, "The Dream of John Lau-
terbach." AS the skit went on it
took the form of the story, Little
Black Sumbo." The scene was laid
in room where John was seen
goirg to bed before the all-impor-
tant game with Sleepy Eye. After
he had fallen asleep his dream
marched before him. With a few
pine trees in the back of the stage
to indicate a forest, Black Sambo,
played by John Weis entered
carrying large green parasol.
Sambo was showing off his clothes
when some animals ran onto the
stage ard made some wise re-
marks about the game that was
coming. Then three fierce looking
tigers entered and threatened to
eat Sambo if he would not give
up his pretty clothes to them. He
was forced to do so. This was sup
posed to indicate points from
Redwood. They fell asleep after
wards and Sambo quietly stole
back his clothes, which represent
ed Redwood getting back their
scores and winning the game. The
skit was greeted with enthusiastic
cheering which woke John up. His
dream then vanished and he went
to prepare for the game. Talking,
singing, and sounds from the
wings added to the fun. When the
skit was finished the cheer leaders
led the assembled students in a
few yells.

We have completed our inter-
esting journey through the coun-
tries on the northern coast of the
Mediterranean Sea, namely Spain,
Portugal, France, Italy, Greece
and the Barbary coast, Asia Minor
and the Holy Land. As we visited
these lands we could see why the
people lived in the ways in which
they do. Just as we do, they fit
their ways of living to the kind
of country in which they live
We decided that it would be
fun to spend our winters in this
land as it is a '1and of wonder
full winters" because of the win
ter sunshine and winter. rain.
