Iust one of the 30 Club's meetings. Last term in The Times Office a unique club was conceived and organized by the hard-working, deadline-beating reporters on The Times. I The club was promptly named the H30 Society" in honor of the traditional thirty mark which means "end of copy." Miss Lena Mae Elliott, sponsor of The Times, agreed to sponsor the Society, and regular meetings began. Immediately after having been organized, the club was divided into two teams. One was named the "Dummies"-meaning the make-up of a paper, and the other was called the "Dopes"-meaning advance information. Maxine Gilliam was chosen captain of the Dopes, while Doris Rae Beard led the Dummies. The purpose of the club was to get bigger and better ads for the Times. Each team adopted its own slogan and theme song-using them as battle cries. A contest then began between the two teams, with a party given by the losing side as a reward to the winners. By the margin of only a few inches the Dummies finally emerged victors. At the end of the term. the club was disbanded as far as the journalism work went, but it has met a few times since then. -Betty Grisham. 748 "so" Swat' Pa, e 112

7fze Wa KW em In Ianuary a luncheon was given at the Rio Vista Restaurant. At this luncheon the officers of the fall term relinquished their offices to the officers elected for the spring term. This was followed by a game party in our school cafeteria on February 20, which we gave to be- come acquainted with the prospective members. In an impressive and beautiful ceremony seventeen new members were initiated into the club on March 9 in the home of Rose Margaret I-Iolekamp. As they took the pledge, each new member was presented with a lovely corsage. One of the highlights of the year was the picnic given in April for the members and their dates and friends at Koehler Park. Bicycling, chatting, dancing, and boat riding climaxed by a sdmptuous feast ended a day which will long be remembered by the members of the Wa Kapa Club. In May the farewell banquet honoring the seniors was given. This is always an occasion enjoyed by all, yet with an overtone of sadness as we bid good-bye to our friends with Whom we have spent so many pleasant hours. -Betty Ann Lockhart, Ieannette Kizer and Roberta Pugh.
