Simplicity of modern design has been carried forth in depicting by word and picture a record of the activities a n d occasions of the East Detroit High School. If the East Def troiter succeeds in reviving pleasant memories of these experif ences-its purpose is accomplished. We wish to express our heartiest appreciation to all those who made possible the pub' lication of the East Detroiter. To Barbara Heinrich our Editor, congratulations for a fine piece of work. The staff this year h a s b e e n assisted by a faculty committee composed of Mr. Carroll E. Bratt, Mrs. Nina Moran and Mr. Jason Day. They have offered splendid advice and cooperation in making t h e 1940 EastDetroiter a successful publication.

The Monitors' Club is one of the oldest clubs in our school. It was organized in 1930 un- der the direction of Mrs. Rena Van Fleet. Later Mr. Lester Sherbcck became sponsor of the club. After several years Mrs. Van Fleet again resumed the responsibility and is the present sponsor. The chief aim of the club is to cooperate with the members of the faculty in main' taining order in the corridors. The members further serve the school by helping to prevent skipping, and by helping to protect the property of the student body. This club has accomplished a great deal for the benefit of the school and are steadily striving to accomplish more. The officers are: Grace Foster, Presidentg Marjorie Barker, Vice Presidentg Ruth Rehahn, Secretary and Treasurer.

The aim of the club is to aid the faculty by keeping order at the varif ous social events of the school. The members also check articles and rcll candy at the social functions. They try to do their very best to fulfill these aims satisfactorily and thus far have been very successful. The officers for the current year are: Jack Landon, Head Usherg Anna Mclnck, Assistant Head Usher and Secretary, and Rita Rassette, Treasf urer.

Debate Club The objectives of the Debate Club are to encourage the members to speak forcefully, objectively, and persuasivcly from factual materialg to view unbiasedly all questions relative to their intelligent discussion: and to prepare arguments in logical sequence. Ruth NVilde, Ralph Scott, William Ryan, Grace Foster, and Betty Ann Prentice comprised the 193940 Varsity Debate Team of the East Detroit High School, Other members of the club were: jack Landon and Dale Whitehouse. This year they have been under the guidance of Mr. George A. Moroz. Keys were given Ruth, Ralph, Grace, Betty and William by the Mich' igan Forensic Association. The subject for debate this year was: Ref solved, that the federal government shall own and operate the rail- roads. In the tournament at Rochester, the East Detroit team emerged victorious, winning debates from Pontiac and Linden High School, In February, Ruth Wilde, Ralph Scott, and William Ryan, with Grace Foster and Betty Ann Prentice, broadcast a debate from Radio Station WEXL. This was an interesting discussion of the stu' dent council situation in the high school. Previously, the East Detroit debate squad was chosen to broadcast the debate topic of the year while the schools of the metropolitan Detroit and Macomb County listened. It was proclaimed one of the best high school broadcasts ever heard.

It was organized in 1934 with Mr. C. Bratt as sponsor. Later the sponsorship was transferred to Mr. Jason Day and finally to Mr. Donald Dake, who now has charge of it. The club has grown from three people putting out a paper for pure enjoyment, to a large, well organized group, who this year has sucf ceeded in converting it into one which more nearly resembles a prof fessional newspaper. Its aims are, as they have always been, firstly, to promote interest in journalism and to give those pupils who are inf terested a chance to develop their writing ability through actual experf ience. Secondly, it attempts to give to the students the news of activf ities going on within their school and in this way to draw them closer to their school. The Shamrock Staff consists of the following officers: Gladys Van Fleet, EditorfinfChief, Dorothy Nowack, Society Editor, Ruth Rehahn, Exchange Editor, Ruth Schlott, Feature Editor, Mildred Wunderlich, Art Editor, Murray Heath, Sport Editor. First row: Rhea Stolberg, Murray Heath, Ruth Schlott, Gladys Van Fleet, Don' ald Dake, Sponsor, Dorothy Nowack, Mildred Wunderlich, Ruth Re- hahng second row: Mary Jane Glover, Betty Flath, Glenna Webb, Besf se Robb, Catherine Roth, Ruth Wilde, Josephine Galatioto, Opal Cam' erong third row: Harold Basney, Betty Cross, Norma Sehade, Ruth Koester, Theresa Rassette, Esther Gooden, Eli Thayer, fourth row: Richard Roberts, Melvin Tomlinson, Fred Bolle, George Whitehead. The Dramatic Club The East Detroit High School Dramatic Club was first organized in September, 1937. It was formed for the purpose of giving students practical experience in the interpreting and producing of onefact plays, to promote interest in the dramatic activities of the school, and to en- courage enthusiasm for the drama in all its phases. All senior high students who are interested in the theatre in any Way are encouraged to join the club. The club has been very active this year. In No' veinber the members produced a onefact play, Anyway to Get the Votes , for the annual School Fair. For the Christmas program they entertained the entire student body with a onefact comedy, entitled Pop Reads the Christmas Carol . In January the club gave four onefaet comedies to raise funds for some much needed stage furniture. The members are now working on a night program to be given to inf crease the fund, so that the furniture may be obtained before the an' nual Senior play. Many students in the club have the final honor of acting in their class play.

The Fine Arts Club first organized in February, 1940, and sponsored by Mrs. Mabel Smith, teaches girls various phases of fine needlework such as crocheting, knitting, and hemstitching. The thirtyfnine girl members from the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades find much enjoyment in this work. Those in the picture are, first row: Evelyn Gertz, Virginia Vanriette, Betty Ann Prentice, Janet Hoskey, Mrs. Smith, Sponsor, Eleanor Wat- kin, Eva Mae Glander, Gpal Cameron, Mary Jane Glover, Dorothy Barker, second row: R 0 s e W e n e r, Marguerite Rockensuess, Eva Wener, Betty Snyder, Ella Pode, Grace Foster, Viola Stricker, Shirley Gracher, Marcelline Oswald, Clara Wastoski, third row: Madline Zim' merman, Marion Loughman, Besse Robb, Ellen Fielax, Alfrida Han' sen, Arlene Deike, Jessie Jackson, Mildred Krzykowski, Grace Pode, Ethel Watkin. The l-landicraff Club whose members are fortyftwo industrious boys and girls, was first orf ganized February 1, 1940, by Mr. Thomas Dedo. The main purpose of the organization is to establish a useful, as well as interesting hobby and the underlying aims are to develop a certain amount of skill in the use of plastic, leather, wood, and metals, in the making of trinkets, home ornaments, and useful novelties. Although the club is a com' paratively new one, it is making noticeable progress. Pictured above are: first row: Mildred Bolle, Blanche Miller, jean Clifford, Mr. Dedo, Sponsor, Dorothy Parnett, Marjorie Barker, Jean Davis, second row: Evelyn Rausch, Elaine Hintz, Gloria Kaiser, Virginia Clore, Mildred Wunderlich, Mary Vassallo, Beatrice Currier, third row: Hollis Wil' kins, Harry Hoffmann, Charles Shipley, Arthur Klawender, Charles Rhodes, Robert Vance, Fred Pankow, fourth row: Gerald jackson, David Kern, Raymond Plietz. The Chess Club for both Senior and junior High School pupils were started in this high school in September of 1937 by Mr. R, F. Read, mathematics teacher. The object is to teach the pupils the rules of the game and to enable them to spend at least a part of their leisure time in a desir' able environment with practically little expense. Tournaments are arranged periodically to enable them to practice what they have learned and to let them benefit from each other's experiences. Chess is a very easy game to learn, and it is surprising how interested the pupils bef come in the game once they have mastered the elementary rules. At present they play fast, simple games rarely lasting more than fifteen minutes each. The quality of the strategy is not deep, but that will come later to those who are capable of developing it. The officers of this club are: Ralph Scott, President, Bob Dougherty, Vice President. Edward WAIIYCTS, Secretary, and Richard Roberts, Treasurer.

The members, under the able direction of Mr. Wctzel, are learning the fundamentals of photography. The developing and printing of pictures are their main interests. 'Those memhcrs who have belonged more than one semester and who have shown progress in the work are Mr. Wetzel's assistants. A small fee is charged to cover the cost of needed materials. There are no other dues.

The l-li Y Club Club was first organized in the fall of 1933 hy Mr. Donald Dake, who is the present sponsor. Its aim is to create, maintain, and e x t e n d throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character, through clean living, clean speech, clean sports, and clean scholarship, Leading their club onward to the fulfillment of these aspirations are the officers: Ralph Scott, President: Stanley Schook, Vice Presidentg Elliot Horton, Secretary and Treasurer. This year the HifY hoys have sponsored the Courtesy Week, the all boys as' sembly on sex hygiene, the Negro speaker on race relations, and the campaign against cheating in classes.

Beginning with a membership of nineteen, the band at the present time has an enrollment of forty members. This organization furnishes music for all athletic activities, and during the spring semester presents a band concert. Elvira Heins, Doris Soderberg, and Lou Ann .lames are the Drum Majorettes.

In the photograph are presented, first row: Ruth Schlott, Herbert Crueber, Eva Mae Clander, Gladys Van Elect, Betty Cusman, Beatrice Crist: second row: Martin Burg, jean Stevens, Norman Comfort, jean Davis, Wayne Hall, Ted Cavanaughg third row: Shirley Fisher, Mary Van Crafhorst, Marjorie McDonell, Mr. Richards, Mildred Wuiiderlich, john Wtiennecke, Thercsia Griesbeck. l The Girls' Glee Club Under the direction of Mr. A. R. Richards has furnished entertain' ment for school assemblies and for many outside activities. The girls meet for practice for only forty minutes a day, but despite this handif cap of time for practice have developed into a fine musical organizaf tion. Elvira Heins, June Mc Lellan, and Freda Stay played the lead' ing feminine roles in the operetta l'Love Goes South, while the ref maining members of the club saw service in the chorus. lncidentally, Love Goes South was acclaimed to be the best operetta ever pref sented by the East Detroit High School, Pictured in the upper photof graph are: first row, june McLellan, Dolores Schroeder, Barbara Witf tenberg, Mr. Richards, Dorothy Willis, Doris Chronicle, Virginia Van' riette, Alberta Doornbosg second row, Ruth Schlott, Dorothy Glover, Beatrice Currier, Beth Ryerse, Jean Ferguson, Mattie Lou Wtieiiiiecke, Joan Reed, Catherine Padgett, Eva Mae Glanderg third row, Gertrude Ryan, Elvira Heins, Dorothy Oehmke, Marcelline Oswald, Freda Stay, Frances Drislcell, Anna Lawsong fourth row, Mary Vassallo, Elaine Hintz, Mildred Wtiiiderlich, Dolores Henstock, Marguerite Wlllldfli' lich, Marie Muvich. The Boys' Glee Club Although small in number, the Boys' Glee Club boasts some very out' standing talent. Two of its members, Tom Robertson, tenor, and Raymond Dafoe, baritone, are reputed to be the bcst vocalists ever to attend the East Detroit High School. Their work as the male leads in the operetta, Love Goes South, won them much acclaim and praise. Although their parts called for no singing, Archie Bradley, Milton Schreiber, and Rex Shipley gave outstanding dramatic per' formances as their contribution to Love Goes South. The other members of the club did a fine job of singing with the chorus. Aside from their work in the operetta ,the glee club is often called upon to entertain at school assemblies and various civic activities. This organ' ization is also under the direction of Mr. Richards. ln the lower picture are: first row, Milton Schreiber, Bill Hinlclc, Eve Mae Glander, Accomf panist, Mr. Richards, Raymond Dafoe, Paul Scifferleing second row, Carl Gerds, Bob Ferguson,Tom Robertson, Rex Shipley,Archie Bradley. The Home Economics Club was organized in 1937 under the name of The Domestic Science Club. Originally, the Club was for Junior High School members but due to the fact that junior High Clubs were eliminated, the Senior High students may now join. The club is governed by a charter, which was drawn up by a charter committee and accepted by the members of the club. The charter's most important points are: QU That the club be limited to sixteen membersg Q21 that no member can remain in good standing if she neglects to do the required amount of workg Q30 that credit shall be given to the memberswho complete one projectg My that every fourth meeting shall be a social affair. Last semester the members attended a cooking demonstration at the J. L. Hudson Com' pany. They dispensed with school for the afternoon. The club has decided to sponsor a Spring Fashion Show. The officers of the club are: Ruth Rehahn, Presidentg Ruth Schlott, Vice Presidentg Marion Rehahn, Secretary and Treasurer. Pictured on this page are, first row: Ruth Schlott, Charlotte Henderson, Betty Gorsline, Miss Horn' beck, Sponsor, joan Rodd, Ruth Rausch, Marjorie Werkg second row: Beatrice Ceister, julia Molnar, Dorothy Maxwell, Marion Rehahn, Ruth Rehahn, Theresa Griesbeck, and Mary Ryan. The Girl Reserves Is a junior branch of the Y.W.C.A. Cur unit was organized two years ago under the guidance of Miss Esther Weiidela, our present sponsor. The program of activities which we have promoted this year includes a world fellowship meeting, numerous social meetings, and an all girl assembly at which Dr. Purdue was our guest speaker. Combined with the HifY Club we have established Courtesy Week and have given senior farewell banquets to the January and June class- es. Our officers are: Betty Lou Roth, President, Virginia Laetham, Vice President, Betty Heil, Secretary, Martha Sue jackson, Treasurf er, Myrtle Ward, Interfclub Council. We have adopted a fine code of ethic and are trying hard to live up to it.

The All Sports Review Club Has been organized for two years under the direction of Mr. Rock' well. It has been open to all boys and girls who are interested or engaged in athletics. Those students who never take an active part in sports are especially encouraged to join, as one of the aims of the organization is to give those pupils a greater knowledge of all sports so they may be better spectators. One of the chief accomplishments is to discuss the rules and strategy of all sports. Champions, near' greats, and heroes of yesterday, in each sport are discussed, and their deeds recounted. In the fall football and boxing are the chief topics, while basketball, hockey, wrestling and swimming are discussed in the winter weeks. Comes spring and it is golf, track, tennis, and of course, baseball. The students are all encouraged to take an active part in athletics or at least to become good spectators. Each spring the club is a guest of the Detroit Baseball Company at one of its home games.

Y A f a X Q Archery Club In the fall of 1939 the East Detroit Archery Club, long a dream, bef came a reality under the guidance of Mr. Earl Nellis. The purpose of the club is to provide leisure time activity and exercise by giving instruction on the correct shooting of the bow, planning for archery matches in competition with other clubs, and to give timely advice as well as to provide a place to work out new equipment for the tackle. There are now 14 members all but two of which are their own arch' cry tackle. The club practices target shooting in the tunnel and wofks Out of doors when weather permits. The officers of the club are Betty Unthank, President, Helen Farnum, Secretary and Treasurer. In the picture are, first row: Helen Farnum, Dorothy Gill, Virginia Challis, Mr. Nellis, Virginia Bartz, Betty Unthankg second row: Heinz Fruhner, Vernon Billiau, Leslie Gosch, LeRoy Hawley, Harold Brock' man, Cleatis Beaubien. The Tennis and Badminton Club Wars first organized in the fall semester 1936 under the sponsorship of Mr. Bratt. The club was organized for the purpose of teaching the fundamentals of hadminton and tennis to those students who had no previous experience in these games. Meetings are held once a week-in the gymnasium during the winter months-and on the ten- nis courts during the spring and fall. Tournaments are played in both sports and the winners of each tournament are presented with medals. This serves as a medium of motivation for mastering the fundamentals of each sport. In the photo are presented, first row: Betty Flath, Rita Westx'eld, Lucille Girard, Mr, Bratt, Bernice Muiieio, Marie Carnaghi, Marcella Bachellorg second rovv: Donald Johnson, Eileen Rodda, Ruth Kocster, Doris Krzyhowsky, Elizabeth Hertz, Jean Binning, Frank Brunetteg third row: Carl Hollinger, Dan Siler, Bob johnson, Fred Nies, Charles McDaniel, Ernest Duda, Robert Eiswerth. . rf s u ' 1 The Girls' Physelle Club Was first organized in 1935. The present sponsor is Miss Elizabeth Cleland, Director of Girls' Physical Education. The main purpose of this Club is to promote physical social culture a m o n g the girls through recreational activities, to sponsor play days for schools in the district and for groups within the schools, to participate in charity do' nations, and to raise funds to buy extra equipment which may be used in the gymnasium. The Club offers great possibilities toward round- ing out thc girls' personaltics by affording an opportunity for the girls of Barbara Heinrich: and a swimming party at one of the city recrea' ational activities. Besides its regular bifmonthly meetings this year the Club participated in a basketball play day, held February tenth, which included five schoolsg a skating and tobogganing party at Muer Parkg a Christmas party, a tea and initiation party, held at the home of Barbara Heinrich, and a swimming party at one of the city recreaf tion pools. The organization thus far has been very successful and we have every reason to believe that it will continue its good work in the future. The officers of this club are as follows: Barbara Hein' rich, Presidentg June McLellan, Secretary, Marjorie Barker, Treasurer. In the picture are, first row: Grace Deperro, Dorothy Parnett, Betty Cleland, Alma Koppin, Elvira Heins, second row: Frances Bandish, Beverly Flood, Gertrude Naujok, June McLarty, Edith Smith, Esther Ryerse, Virginia Walters, Louise Dobner, Evelyn Rawling, Marjorie Wcrkg third row: Freda Stay, Lucy Suluk, Gloria Thompson, Virginia Lang, Doris Marter, Betty Lou Roth, Irma Wendt,, Delphine Jackson.

Their present sponsor and advisor is Mr. Clarence Rukamp, who is assisted by the following off ficers: Thomas Robertson, Presidentg Ernest Carlson, Vice Presidentg .lack Lincnger, Secretary and Treasurer. The club is a recreational organization for boys who are interested in athletics, but who have not played on the Varsity Team. The club meets four times each month. The first meeting is devoted to business, the other three to playing basketball, baseball, etc. This arrangement of meetings has been very satisfactory during the past year. Presented in the picture are, first row: Ernest Carlson, Lloyd Baetz, Ernest Ivlancani, Clarence Rukamp, Mac Wlieelcmck, Max Kretschmer, ,lack Linengerg second row: Kenneth IvIacDonald, Richard Janes, Robert Wiegaiid, jr., Ar' thur Rzeppa, Fred Bolleg third row: Elmer Hintz, Gene Bauder, Thom' as Robertson. ' Cheer Leaders Yefa, team! Yefa team! The East Detroit Cheerleaders are on their job. Joe McPherson, with his megaphone, presides at all pep' meetings and games. He is our veteran cheerleader and is very ably assisted by the quadruplets, D 0 ris Chronicle, Josephine Galatioto, Mabel Saylor, and Rhea Stolberg. Working together, they surely put the pep in pep-meetings, and their enthusiasm at the games has spurred the boys on to a good many victories. We regret that Joe will be leaving us in June, but we are consoled by the fact that the quads stay on for two years. Pictured in the photo are, first row: Doris Chronicle, Mabel Saylor, Josephine Galatioto, Rhea Stolbergg second row: Mr. Rukamp, Sponsor, joe McPherson, Charles McDaniel, Mr. Day, Sponsor. Football In the early fall practice sessions, Coach Dean Rockwell thought that prospects for 1939 football looked very bright. But these prospects were soon dimmed by the announcement from Captain Arthur Rzeppa that, because of his father's illness, he must leave school and go to work. This was indeed a blow to the team, for Art was undoubtedly one of the strongest prospects for the right guard position on the mythical AllfState Football Team. Af if this discouragement was not enough to dishearten the entire squad, Harold Oehmke, who was slated for the right tackle position, suffered a broken collarbone in an accidental collision with that durable center, Eli Thayer. This mishap finished Harold's 1939 football days until the Roseville tilt, which was the last game of the season. This plague of illfluck followed the team right into the season by claiming as its next victim John Shang, who played a very good game at right end against the powerful Wayne squad in the first game and the first victory of the season. East Def troit won this game 6fO, but john came out of it with a broken wrist. This final injury claimed the last of the entire right side of the line, thus leaving that side very weak. Despite all this ill luck, the hardy Shamrocks went on to win three out of their first four games. One of these games won was a revenge game against Hazel Park, who had beaten East Detroit 290 the previous year. The Shamrocks end' ed the season by playing a scoreless tie with their traditional rivals, the Roseville Wildcats. The complete schedule and scores for the season are as follows: East Detroit 6, Wayne Og East Detroit 13, Trenton 20, East Detroit 13, Hazel Park 7, East Detroit 21, Van Dyke 73 East Detroit 6, R i v e r Rouge 33g East Detroit 6, Birmingham 33g East Detroit O, Lincoln Park 133 East Detroit 0, Roseville 0.

Basketball During the 193940 season, the Shamrocks met some of the toughest competition which they ever expect to encounter. Because the East Detroit basketball team is so much stronger than most of the teams which would be encountered in the BifCounty League, they are barred from competition. Since most of the schools of this area are enrolled in the BifCounty League, the Shamrocks are compelled to go out of their class and play the much larger and tougher class A schools. At the close of the '33 season the team elected Clarence Wilson and jack Flath cofcaptains for the season. This is the first time in the history of the school that cofcaptains have been honored on the bas' ketball court. Unfortunately both of these boys were graduated in the january class and could pilot the team for only half of the games. Despite the fact that East Detroit had a losing season, they gave the larger schools a real battle. The award winners were: Clarence Wil' son, jack Flath, Gene Bauder, Fred Bolle, Melvin Tomlinson, Fred Nies, Bill Clyne, Ernest Carson. The seasons schedule and scores are as follows: East Detroit 7, Grosse Pointe 29g East Detroit 21, Rosef ville 223 East Detroit 12, Lincoln Park 221 East Detroit 23, Hazel Park 311 East Detroit 9, Ferndale 311 East Detroit 22, Lincoln Park 24g East Detroit 17, Van Dyke 13g East Detroit 19, Birmingham 273 East Detroit 20, Ford Trade 211 East Detroit 14, Hazel Park 31, East Detroit 16, Roseville 17, East Detroit 12, Ford Trade 303 East Detroit 19, Ferndale 22.

Wrestling In january of 1939, Coach Dean Rockwell invited all boys of the high school interested in wrestling, to appear nightly for instruction and practice. Four boys came out the first night. Such was the unimf pressive beginning of a sport that now holds a major position in athf letics in East Detroit. For, from that nucleus of four boys was devel' oped a team that in 1940 won the state championship and placed the Shamrocks on the athletic map of Michigan. The 1940 season start' ed with Captain Eli Thayer, Henry Kuhn, Archie Bradley, and Henry Gartner as the only experienced boys. Before the season was over they were ably aided hy Alvin Moss, lim Perry, George Whitehead, Dick Schlitters, Bill Hinkle, Weston Tebeau, Don johnson, Ted Gag' nier and Harold Oehmke. The season's record included wins over Cranbrook twice and Grand Rapids Union once. Dual meets were lost to Grand Rapids Ottawa Hills, Ann Arbor and the Northeastern Y.M.C.A. The boys also participated in the Interstate meet at Toledo where they gained a tie for second and the City A.A.U. meet in De' troit, where they were fourth. George Whitehead won first place in the 121 p o un d class in the A.A.U. meet. In the 1940 state high school tournament a team of ten boys was e n t e r e d and every one placed a remarkable achievement in itself. The boys piled up 52 points as against 38 by Grand Rapids Union, the second place team. The points were gained by virtue of winning four firsts, four seconds, one third, and one fourth. The State Champions were Captain Eli Thayer in the 155 pound class, Henry Kuhn in the 145 pound class, George Whitehead in the 115 pound division, and Alvin Moss in the 95 pound class. Moss was also awarded the trophy as the outstandf ing wrestler among the 91 boys competing in the tournament.

Track The 1940 track team was built around such veterans as Captain Dwight Clyne, Alfred Fox, and Harold Oehmke. This was the first year since 1937 that East Detroit had attempted track on a complete scale - the 1939 season had been devoted only to the dash es and field events, In the opening meet of the season, an indoor affair, sponsored by River Rouge High School in the Yost Field House at Ann Arbor, East Detroit picked up 10 points on seconds by Fox an d Oehmke. he had ever run and his time of 95.1 seconds was exceptionally good. Fox's second in the 440 yd. dash was the first race of that distance Oehmke broke his own school record when he put the shot 45 feet 4 1f'2 inches. The outdoor season opened with a dual meet at Van Dyke, and included competition every succeeding week at the Mans' field Relays, Wztyiie Relays, Macomb County Meet, Regional, and State Meets in that order. Other boys on the team who were valuable point getters included john Wueiiiiecke, Roderick Snoeberger, and Bill Clyne in the hurdles, Ted Cavanaugh, Charles Morris, and LeRoy Hawley in the polefvault, Charles Shipley, Eugene Koren and Mac Wheelock in the half mile. Walter Wilkiiis, Carlos Sommers, and Robert Wilde in the mile, Art Klawender in the 440, and Carl Holf linger in the broad jump. The outlook for the 1941 season is excepf tionally good, as the only one of the above boys who will graduate, is john Wueiinecke.

The aim of its membership is to promote all worthwhile activities connected with athletics. The club has been more active this year than in the past. It has published programs for all import- ant athletic contests. It has raised over one hundred fifty dollars by means of movies, dances, etc., over one hundred dollars of which has been paid out for doctor bills in caring for injured players. It has been a major factor in the successful promotion of the First Annual invitational High School Wrestling Tournament, sponsored by the East Detroit High School. The officers for the current year are: Gene Bauder, President, Fred Bolle, Vice President, Kenneth MeDo1if ald, Secretary and Treasurer.
