WAR EMERGENCY COMMITTEE WAR EMERGENCY HELPERS The War Emergency Helpers, sponsored by Miss Reppy and Miss Bailer, made a new committee at John Burroughs this term. It consisted of three groups: story telling for younger children, games for younger children, and songs for little chil- dren. The committee took a course in story telling and is qualified to help in any emer- gency. The Red Cross in New York awarded the girls arm bands to identify them. The girls gave up their noons for ten weeks so that they could learn about story telling and leadership from Mrs. Bas- sett, who very generously gave her time to teach the girls. Carolyn Yarbrough, Jeanne Badham, and Carol Shaffner were the chairmen of the groups. GIRLS ' CAMERA CLUB PAGE FIFTY-FIVE
