Description

PUPPETRY CLUB
Though not widely known to date, the Puppetry Club is one of the most interesting at Marycrest. Miss Eileen O'Meara is in charge of the club, and under
her direction, several puppets are under way. If you have never seen one of
the cunning little dolls, you should certainly make it a point to do so, for to see
the tiny things move about is almost uncanny, to put it mildly. The heads of
the dolls are made from casts, and after the bodies are wired, they are dressed
and then attached to the controls. Then the fun really begins, and if you think
it is easy to make them walk in a lifelike manner, our advice to you is—try it!
