'X S' Artists and Actors C Flourish at CR For the third year in a row the Art Club has displayed their work for the student body within the hall display cases, and offered creative gift selections at the pte-Christ- mas Art Sale. The club traveled over to Portland for visits to the Oregon Leather Company, Portland Art Museum, and several small galleries. Strong participation from the club continued in the annual Art Fair held at Fort Vancou- ver High School in the spring, Mini-courses, which origi- nated at club meetings, covered silk-screening, leathercraft, metal jewelry casting, metal enameling, potter's wheel, and soldering, and welding. The officers for the year were Kim Hitt and Val Cox, co-Presidents. Thespians, a nationwide organization, consists of drama students who have earned the right to become a member. Two or three points are awarded per play within the drama department, and an accumulation of ten points determines Thespian membership.

More Members More Activities The French Club, also known as Les Gais Francais, small in number, but desiring to play a part in Columbia R.iver's activities, accomplished several goals during the school year. The language retreats, a pickle sale, selling programs at the Fort vs River football game, the annual Christmas party and dining at a French 'Restaurant were some of the activities that kept the group occupied. International Week was a first time expe- rience at C. R. this year and the French Club members were extensively involved with the event. One problem that faced the organization was that of membership and attendance at meetings. It's not necessary to be in French classes in order to join French Club. The more members the more things we can do! quoted Vicky Hills. The officers for the year were: President, Tracy Baynesg Vice- President, jean Landerholmg and Secretary, Vicky Hills.

The group was directed by Mr. Robert Montgomery. Orchestra Smaller Yet Outstanding The CRHS Orchestra, which was conducted by Mr. Adair Hilligoss, was extremely smaller this year than in the previous years. The approximate number of members in orchestra was thirty-five. They were busy along with the Chieftain band having a candy sale and concerts to raise money for contest expenses. The orchestra was involved in all four of the concerts - Fall, Christmas, Guest Artist, and Spring, and was in the Lower Columbia River Music Educators Asso- ciation Contest. The Pep Band, also supervised by Mr. Hilligoss, consisted of the better students in the Chieftain Band that enjoyed playing for all the home basketball games. They played shorter, more modern songs for the crowds. They too helped the Chieftain Band with the selling of candy which went toward new shirts for them. The Girls' Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Bob Montgomery, spent most of their time learning the fundamental methods of singing. They performed in three concerts this year. Many of the girls went into the Chieftain Choir at second semester. Girls' Chorus under the direction of Mr. Mike Frasier fstudent teacherj, puts audience in the Christmas spirit.
