Stewart as dhail‘man. This festival was the first of its kind, its main purpose being to interest the whole class in the preparation and presen- tation of a play. The schools which entered it were East York, ScarbOr- ougih, Vaughan Road and York Me- morial C’ollegiates and Richmond Hill High School. As York Memor- ial entered two plays, the festival required two evenings, Thursday, Nov. 23, at Soaljfborougih and Friday at York Memorial. The adjudicator was the well-known critic, W. S. Milne. The Lions Club helped in the transportation of fifty pupils to Scalhorough on. Thursday evening. The numbers who found their way to York Memorial on Friday night showed how much interest the festi- val had aroused. Although Richmond Hill was the onlw representative of the smaller schools of the district competing with the large sulburban collegiates Grad'e IX’s play, “The Loveliest Thing” by Roland; Pertlwee was ranked} among those over sev- enty-five per cent. The adjudicator commented upon the beautiful stage setting; the carol singing which opened and closed tlhe ,play; and upon the acting, choosing from a cast of good actors, as he said, two in par- ticular to give special commenda- tion: Anne Walwin- and Margaret Allison.
