S. U. U. dramatic manager, the selection of the annual varsity play, overseeing tryouts, advising in financial matters, approving awards, and the outlining of other student dramatic activities. â- Although these functions have been delegated to the council, its comparative inactivity burdened the director and manager with the major responsibilities. Failure to schedule meetings with the manager resulted in a lack of understanding policies. Only one fully attended meeting was heldâ€" and that to decide on action already taken. The council personnel and student body support would warrant considerable activity, but the powers of the council have a preference for Theta Alpha Phi promotion which shadows the A. S. U. U.'s just dues. â- Professor Joseph F. Smith, chairman, lent aid to thepreparation and production of the thirty-seventh annual varsity play, "The Youngest," through loans of past reports and advice on past performances. Professor Maude May Babcock coached the production. Hyde Clayton and Emma Rae McKay served as student representatives on the council. â- Roland Funk bore the managerial duties, which included the detailed preparation and production of the varsity play, as an agent for the associated students. Through a concentrated effort for campus support an increased student attendance resulted, as shown in the annual report. â- In conjunction with Donal Swan, music manager, radio broadcasts of orchestral numbers and excerpts from the play were innovated as advertising measures. Roald Hogenson worked tirelessly as assistant manager and much credit is due him. Fred Barnes, Parry Sorenson, and Gail Plummer offered valuable assistance.£^K-*#*â- If >: â- "maSmsSClaytonBabcockMcKaySmithFunkTwo Hundred Seventy-four |
