Joining in co-sponsorship of the group were Miss Adda L. Dunlap and J. W. Cochran. Membership was limited to 'l5 per cent of the senior class and 5 per cent ofthe iunior section. Among the many beneficial activities of Triadelphia's chief honorary association were the typing ot schedules for each classroom, thereby facilitating the search for teachers and rooms by persons unfamiliar with the school, the sale of red and black rosettes, the maintenance ot the Thought-for-the-Week bulletin boards that pro- claimed inspirational and provocative adages. In addition, the society, striving to boost gridiron morale, initiated a new proiect, the production and sales of 'Football tags advocating stronger support of the team. An event heavily crowned with impressive ceremony and eagerly anticipated each spring was the induction service, March 28, of new members. As in previous years, this well-executed ritualistic service brought some personal disappointment, however, those deemed best qualified had their hour upon the stage.

This time-honored phrase was again answered in the affirmative with the return of French to the curriculum of THS. Turning work into fun, Tridel's newly organized French Club, under the guidance of Miss Elinor Nally, brought a bit of Paris to Triadelphia. To fulfill initiation requirements, new members wore to school their impressions of the latest Paris Fashions. These Parisians-for-a-day paraded their interpretations in a style show held in the auditorium at noon of initiation day. To climax first- semester activities, the linguists held a Christmas party in Miss Nally's room, follow- ing French holiday traditions. Les Francais fulfilled the club's purpose-to create interest in the French language and people-by translating short-wave broadcasts of French news, music, and quiz programs. Another activity of the French enthusiasts was corresponding with teen- agers around the world through Letters Abroad, an organization founded by President Eisenhower. During the second semester an Inter-Language Council was established to co- ordinate the activities of the French group with Tridel's other two language groups. Virginia Kay Mitchell and Sue Ann Vail model the latest Paris creations during French Club initiation.

Old members of the Little Red Riding Club judged the tryouts. Successful candidates then participated in an initia- tion, after which they enioyed all membership privileges. During the school year of '57 and '58 the Girls' Riding Club held numerous busi- ness meetings and scheduled three rides each semester. Attendance and participa- tion were required at two of the three outings, and the horses and facilities of Ogle- bay Park's Riding Academy were utilized. A picnic at Schwertfeger Shelter in Wheel- ing Park and a cross-country excursion concluded the year's activities. Commented Miss Mabel Scherich, sponsor, The Girls' Riding Club provides many opportunities for Triclel's equestriennes to exchange ideas and to discuss recent devel- opments dealing with the equestrian art. This organization, concluded Miss Scherich, exists only for the purpose of furnishing interesting and exciting experiences for those who enioy the avocation of riding on horseback. 66
