CHILDRKN’S WORLD—2ND FLOOR
BY RENE KNIGHTON
On last week several members
of the Dramatics club of Bell
Street went to see the presen
tation of “Where Did We Go
Wrong” at Presbyterian College.
This outstanding event was thor-
oighly enjoyed by everyone.
The French Department also
witnessed a French performance
“Caligula” on Sunday afternoon at
Dreher High School in Columbia.
The cast consisted of native
French actors and actresses
from Paris, France. It was an
experience to have had the op
portunity to see and talk with
these stars. A few snapshots of
the group were taken after the
program. We extend our sincere
appreciation to Mr. Robert Beas
ley for making this trip possi
ble.
In sports, the girls’ basketball
team traveled to Orangeburg on
Saturday to compete against Be-
thume Memorial High from Bow
man. Even though the girls’team
did not gain a victory for the
Wildcats, we are nevertheless
proud of their performance. They
lost by a score of 53-42. As win
ners of the upper-state champ
ionship game, the team was a-
warded a huge trophy, which is on
display in the school lobby. Prin
cipal Hudson, along with others,
commended the team and the
coaches for their outstanding a-
chievements.
The Bell Street Dramatics Club
will present its annual play en
titled “Twelve O’clock Murder”
and “Here Comes The Groom”
on March 4,1970 at 8 p.m. Tick

chased from any member of the
