Entertainment at the expense of the pro- spective Y-Teens in the gymnasium resulted in tangled hair, embarrassed smiles, arms loaded with Senior books, and was climaxed by a candle-light service. Since this initia- tion on October 6, we have accomplished much under the leadership of Kay Brown. president, Sally Foster, vice-president, Pat Miller, secretary, and Susanne Markley, treasurer. On alternate Monday evenings We enjoyed such activities and entertainment as packing QQFL boxes for CAREQ laughing at The Old Time Minstrel Show, preceded by a pot-luck sup- perg listening to the Hi-Y chorus: and listen- ing to Marcus Leyo. a young Chinese student. We invited our special bcaus to the Camp- town Races, our theme for the Best Fellow Banquet. Our Mother-Daughter Tea was held on May 7, at which the officers for the coming year were initiated. We ended our '47-'48 year all the wiser for the experience attained and appreciative of the leadership and teachings of our sponsor, Mrs. lrey. First Row Evelyn Fraunixfcr.

Jw With Clean Speech, Clean Living, Clean Scholarship, and Clean Sports as our stand- ards, the Hi-Y club experienced a success- ful year with Gene Meyer, presidentg Bob Karch, vice-president, David Huffman, treas- urer, Dick Gleim, Secretary and Jerry Mark- ley, Sergeant-at-Arms. The calendar included a swim party, gym sessions, various interesting speakers and a masquerade party. One meeting was spent in organizing a Hi-Y club at Lancaster Cen- tral high school. The Older Boys Conference, held at India- napolis, Was represented by six boys, who prospered by the program. The 4th District Hi-Y Conference. of which Neil Harris is president, was held April 3. at the First Baptist Church. The chorus sang several selections and the address was given by Mr. Denio. the associate state secretary of the Y. M. C. A. The efforts of the members were focused on the annual Best-Girl Banquet held on April 30. at the beautifully decorated Baptist Church. One evening in November, a group of boys attired in white coats and black bow ties made their first appearance as the newly organized Hi-Y chorus. The chorus met with immedi- ate success under the direction of Mrs. Grim- sley and presented many entertaining pro- grams. They added their masculine voices to the ttSpring Festival and actually proved they were HStout Hearted Men. wr -- ITN-i-Q Dnuv' lin:-A Nffn

Under the guidance of Mr. Park, it is composed of a student from each home room, the president of Hi-Y, Y-Teen, National Honor Society, Girls Ath- letic Association, editors of the Retrospect and of the Comet, and the four class presi- dents. It is this councils purpose to repre- sent the student body, to sponsor worth- while projects, to create in the school a feeling of co-operation between faculty and students, and to foster good citizenship in our school. To increase the student body's enthusiasm for a sportsmanlike attitude and to Welcome the boosters of the visiting basketball teams, the members of the Student Council accom- plished their project of decorating the gym- nasium with banners carrying the colors of the opposing schools.
