MANY UNUSUAL PROBLEMS CROP UP
in STAGING EAST GRADES OPERETTA

MarySville students and teach
ers working in the production of
the East Grades operetta, "The
Frog Prince" have discovered
that the problems encountered in
producing an operetta do not all
involve words and music" Along
with the hours of practice and re-
hearsal which have been neceS-
sary in order to learn songs,
dances, and speaking parts, have
been hours Of work devoted to
ironing out problems of stage set
ting, costuming, and the assemb-
ling of properties.
Donald Euverard, in addition
to his duties of teaching songs,
coaching, and directing, has been
graphing with such items of
stage settings as: one marble
staircase, one balcony, and one
well. Those who attend the oper-
eta on Feb. IL at p. m. will
see on the stage of the High
School Auditorium the results of
his labors.
II. II. Tallman, principal of the
East building, who has been re-
sponsible for most of the work Of
organization in the operetta, has
also got together 10 flags of as
many countries for one scene in
the operetta. Strangely enough, it
was finding sticks for the flags
that temporarily puzzled Mr.. Tall
man, but without resorting to
whiting, he solved that problem,
also.
Miss Ruth Spriggs, who is re-
sponsible for coaching and cos
tune supervision in the fifth and
sixth grades, made a detailed
study of frogs in order to assist
in making a costume for the
Frog Prince.
Miss Carol Hill, assistant music
teacher, had, some interesting ex-
periences while on the trail of a
crystal ball needed for the per-
formance. Shop keepers, on Col
umbuS' S. High st, took her quite
seriously when she asked for a
crystal ball, and one displayed a
handsome ball imported from
CzechoSolvokia.
The "human-interest" problems
of the operetta have been met
with great patience by the teach
erS Of the lower grades who have
worked tirelessly to train the
younger children. Those teachers
