o the rallying call of the trumpeter East High students fall into club formations. Lending variety and distinction to the Trojan Parade, club life molds personalities, develops leadership, teaches cooperation and individual responsibility, and vitalizes school life. Through club activity students discover a worthy avocation for leisure time. Latent abilities and interests find an opportunity to ma- terialize under faculty guidance. Proficiency is rewarded by membership in honor groups. Serving as officers and committeemen gives students an insight into administrative procedure. Thus clubs are the means of broadening viewpoints and social contacts.
