PRESS CLUB: As in previous years, the Press Club under the supervision of Miss Damon, has continued to publish the “Tatler bi-monthly and to provide school news for the Clifton Springs Press. With the beginning of the second semester, the club, due to the shortage of paper, economized by utilizing both sides of the paper. Editors were elected quarterly. They were. Catherine Cooley, Bernice Knauss, Alice Vande-Vcorde and Marian Lush. 1st Row: Miss Damon, A. VandeVoorde, A. Barker, M. Lush, C. Cooley, B. Knauss, B. Driscoll. 2nd Row: A. White, M. Becker. D. Lindner, C. Hughscn. M. Wootton, L. Landuyt, P. Macllroy. 3rd Rcw: B. Lannon, B. Gccdman, M. Loughran, M. Taylor, B. Crawford, J. Utterson, J. Call, C. Oestreich. 4th Rcw: E. Weld, E. Weld. DANCING CLUB: In September, the Dancing Club began its first dance step, the waltz. The next step learned was the fox-trot, a fundamental step in social dancing. Variations of the fox-trot were practiced to lend novelty to the dance. The boys and girls had an opportunity to exercise some of the rules of etiquette. The boys were taught to escort the girls back to their original position on the dance floor and the girls were taught never to refuse a request for a dance. Part of the peric-d was spent in learning dance steps and proper position. The rest of the period was devoted to actual dancing. This club was open only to those who were beginners and no expert dancers were permitted to participate. The club’s officers were: President, Robert Jones; vice-president, Richard Verbridge; social secretary, Robert Allen; treasurer. Charles Sheldon. FRENCH CLUB: The French Club officers for the year of 1941-42 were as follows: President, Jane Utterson; vice-president. Marion Lush; secretary-treasurer. Alice Vande-Vcorde. At the meetings the club members played Bingo in French and read a story which was written in the dialect of southern France. They have also sung French son£s and translated seme modern songs into French. The members studied the French provinces and made a map of them for the exhibit which was held in April. The members of the French Club wrote letters to Portugal. Canada. Haiti, and other countries. So far, Peg Wootton is the only one to receive an answer from her correspondent, a boy in Haiti. Adviser: Miss O’Shea. LIBRARY CLUB: The Library Club for this school year consisted of about eight girls, who took charge of the library while our librarian, Miss Damon, was teaching classes. Because they have an opportunity to do a variety of tasks, the members actually learned a little about the tasks of being a librarian and some have shown an interest in following the vocation. FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE: Life is progressing very slowly for the Club—let’s blame the war, shall we? So far, we have heard from New Zealand, Cuba. Panama, Canada and South America. Our correspondent in Panama is a soldier who writes to Marie Steyaert. He sounds fairly lonesome for a sight of home. The girl in Cuba is studying English and has told Dorothy Lindner quite a bit about conditions near her home. Her language is particularly amusing since she uses big words in the wrong places. . The members are making scrap books about current events in the Pacific and m South and Central America. Letters have been sent to Mexico. Hawaii, West Africa. Peru and Argentina.
