This Alma organization is composed of boys sponsored by Mr. Ranch and is affiliated with the Y. M. C. A. They are a very active group. They aim to improve the ethical standards of the girls and boys in school, to strive for sportsmanship and cooperation. They have spon- sored movies and lectures carrying out this aim as well as sheer entertainment programs. The problem of school clioues, racial attitudes, and many others are discussed at their meetings. They left a scoreboard to the school during their first year as a club. Dr. Miller consulted with the boys on the problems of sex and Mr. Babcock discussed many of today's problems with the group. These have been the outstanding lectures this year. They have done numerous little things to improve out Alma High.
