'rf-T1-: -1 ADVANCE - Gnu-s' Gi-EE CLUB Three of the lately organized groups of our high school are the Girls' Glee Club, Boys' Glee Club, and the Sextette. The Girls' Glee Club, which is composed of about fifteen girls, has assisted with vocal numbers at many programs. These programsinclude assemblies, Girls' League parties, drz m- atic programs, the band concert, and the music festival at the Humboldt State Teachers College. ' For the tri-play program, presented by the dr amatic and music departments, the Girls? Glee Club, assisted by Eugene Hessel, gave a tableau of Indian songs. The scene was near an Indian village, and the characters were scat- ed about the open fire. For the commencement exercises the club is planning to offer two num- bers: In the Garden of To-morrow, and Just A -wearyin' For You. THE TOREADORS As the annual school operetta for this year the combined Glee Clubs, under the direction of Miss Anne Marovich, presented a musical comedy, "The Toreadors", in two acts.

Marie Stromberg The Achievement Club, an athletic and typing girl's organization, is another of the many clubs which were formed at the beginning of this school year. All girls who have earned a letter "A" are eligible for member- ship in the club. The purpose of the club, as outlined in the constitution, is to "retain an ever-progressing standard of illustrative and practical develcitrnent of the factors for which it is organized in cooperation with the Faculty and Trustees of the A. U. H. S., aside from considering it a duty to uphold to the best of each member's ability, all the vital phases of our school." Several social gatherings, including a party to which the "A" Club boys were invited, were held by the club during the year. Numerous candy sales were also held, the money being used for the purchase of sweaters or pins for the girls of the club who graduated this year. - PARENT-TEACHERS ASSOCIATION Although the P. T. A. has been organized but a few months, it has already distinguished itself by its splendid cooperation with high school activities. Meetings are held in the high school auditorium monthly. The costumes for the annual county play were made by the members of the P. T. A. this year, and they also helped buy a uniform for the band. They are planning to furnish the flowers for graduation. The P. T. A. has proved itself quite worth while, and we can expect it to make rapid progress in the future. Following are the officers who were elected at the first meeting of the organization last October. President ...... - ........... ..----.--- ...... Mrs. L. I. Rowland Vice-Pres.-..- ...., Prin. A. O.
