This picture appeared in The Washington Post sometime in late January or early February 1938. The headline reads, “Hyattsville Students
to Appear in Shakespearean Play. The cutline reads, “'The Taming of the Shrew' will be presented by students of Hyattsville High School tomorrow
and Friday nights under the direction of Dennis Brown, English teacher. Playing the leading roles are Myrle Augustine of Cheverly, Md., Kennard Calfee,
of Riverdale, Md., and Martha Ann Cotterman, of College Park, Md, shown above in costume.”

Katharina, the shrew.
