FUR AND FEATHER Few. indeed, were the clubs with a more diversified program than that of Mr. I eeman's Fur and Feather. And it was not surprising that the membership so noticeably increased. because of the interesting nature of their projects. They consisted of an overnight outing to the Octagon Cabin, hikes into the country, an outing to Gibbs' Farm, a trip to Steve-'s Gun Shop, selling candy at football games, and a school fair exhibit. During the course of the semester the club had five educational motion pictures, and a speaker, Mr. Chiles Collins. on VVorld Tours and Natural Sciences, besides special reports by club iueinbers. During National Book Yveek they were responsible for a splendid library exhibit. which was obtained from the Conservation Department.

Mr. H. A. Vvinston, the sponsor. was very much pleased with his group because of their interest and willingness to perform difiicult exercises. Many of these were first demonstrated by the coach himself and then the members duplicated his feats. Thrilling exhibitions of tumbling' were dis- played before a large audience at the Masonic Temple, also at the Guild Hall, the Bingham Parent-Teacher Association, and the Eastern ParentHTeacl1er Association. All were enjoyed by the spectators. Third Row: Courtney, Godfrey. Cripe, Reeves, Green, Truman, Boyce, Keck. VVendlandt, Kessler, Stead Second Row: Hstok, NVilcox.

HISTORY One of the finest assembly programs this year was the play. The First Thanks- giving Dayu prepared by Miss Kncvels and the club members, with the assistance of her United States history classes. The costumes and staging of this reproduction of the Pilgrims' first Thanksgiving dinner were deserving of high praise. Opportunity to hear many interesting talks on historic. political, and social sub- jects was given during club hours. Among these were customs of France. Spanish politics. the Riviera. and Stone Henge. Mrs. Elijah Poxson was one of the speakers, taking as her subject The Rise of Man. Fourth Row: Butler. Hilliard. Mackey, Graham. Gunn.

Ross GIRL RESERVES To face life squarely , is the connnand of the Girl Reserves Club and clearly illustrates the purpose underlying every activity participated in by the members. Congeniality reigns supreme and enables the girls to accomplish their objectives of each semester: to promote friendship not only in the club but also in school, to sponsor service activities by preparing Christmas baskets. and to develop the girls not only physically but morally. Discussions are a prominent feature of the meet- ings and in order to touch upon a subject interesting to each individual. many topics including books. travel. art. nnlsic. drama. and character are discussed. The members of this Girl Reserves Club enjoyed a splash party at the pool, a wiener roast. a Christmas dinner. and a skating party. For the tirst time, the club was divided into many committees and this created a greater interest among the members as well as placed a lesser share of the respon- sibility on the sponsor.
