The vice-president, jim Montgomery took over and, with the aid of Peggy Seybert-secretary treasurer, Phyllis Allen, jim Kane, and Lynn Russell-executive committee, Gene Swindell, Gene Farquar, and Clyde Marquand- yell leaders, has carried on the activities of this year. Three new teams came into the Central Indiana Conference this year-Monticello, Hartford City, and South Side of Fort Wayne, thus brightening the gym with new pennants. Booklets were sold at the games which gave all the information about the C. I. C. teams and incidentally brought money into the club. The membership was limited by amending the constitution to read as follows: There will be ninety mem- bers, forty seniors, thirty juniors, and twenty sophomores. Twenty-six new members were taken in this year and went through rough initiation at the Hagerstown game. At the Elwood game the girls wore red and yellow sweatersg the red sweaters formed an A with the yellow sweaters to outline it. Tiger Club members are looking forward to the annual banquet to be held in the gym sometime in April. The president will act as master of ceremonies. Lettermen of football and basketball will be named and the cap- tain of each team will give a short talk. In case one person is captain of both, another boy is asked to talk. New oflicers will be named for the following year.
