Show For the second time in the history of the Weber Academy has dramatics played the leading roll in student body activities. On the evening of Wednesday, December 15, 1915, the eager audience that gathered in the Orpheum theatre witnessed the best amateur production ever presented in this town or surrounding country. Under the direction of our able coach, T. Earl Pardoe, the players presented the snappy three-act comedy drama, "Commencement Days." As the press afterward commented, the players did full justice to their parts and would make many of the road show productions look very small indeed.
