Hi-Y One of the most capable organizations of the Enumclaw High School is the Hi-Y Club. This blanch of the Y. M. C. A. was begun in Enumclaw in the latter part of 1925 when a group of eight boys with Mr. Henrj- De Young as their advisor, affiliated with this nation wide family of boys. Carl Hansen held the first presidency. The coming of the year of 1930 finds this group holding high the standards set by their predecessors. The club of the present day has a membership of 24 students The club very efficiently overcame the obstacle presented by the loss of their first advisor, Mr. Henry De Young, by securing Mr. Norman Webb as their leader. The activities of this group during the year are varied, in that they include projects designed for both pleasure and education. Each year an Industrial trip is organized by the Older Boys Group of Seattle, and sponsored by the local Hi-Y units. At the beginning and end of each school year an Induction is held at Auburn, in which new m:mbers are accepted into the organization. At the meeting in the fall the Enumclaw trio covered themselves with glory. The church services held at the Presby- terian church, and conducted entirely by Hi-Y members has also become an annual project of the group. Another of the notable activities which this association has sponsored is the Easter Morning Sunrise Services. This was the first step of the type attempted by a club of this sort, and the efforts of the members were repaid by gratifying results . Besides being qualified to study, the members endeavor to keep a high school spirit, to create, to maintain and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. Each student wearing the triangular shaped pin makes it his aim to enact the Hi-Y slogan of clean living, clean sports, clean scholarship, and its objective of health betterment, mmd acquirement, soul enrichment, and service achievement.
