Several delightful and enjoyable programs were given during the year. Two social functions were planned for the year. One of these, a sleigh-riding party was held at the Country Club and was enjoyed by club members and their friends. The other, to be held at the close of school, has not been fully decided upon. The club is anxiously awaiting the coming of suitable weather so that it can take some hikes and trips into the woods where both plant and animal life can be studied in its own environment, devoid of the inventions of man.

Wal- MSN Rod And Transit HE Civil Engineers' Club has been considered 'one of the most active clubs in our high school. Due to the interest and progressiveness of the society, it partici- pated in many events and enjoyed many entertainments. Some of the trips and entertainments were: Two in- teresting trips through the Hazard Wirte Rope Company, a visit to the Hunlock Power Plant followed by a trip into the Woodward Colliery where all the sights of a mine were witnessed, the visit to the Vulcan Iron Works, where much valuable information was gathered and the viewing of the Burlington Zephyr.', Another form of educational value which was wit- nessed by the members of the club was in the form of motion pictures. Pictures of many differentphases in mechanics and engineering were shown. There were pictures of the history and development of the metal, nickel, the mine and their work, steel, which included phases of iron ore, the steel mills and foundries, and the use of finished steel, and finally the automobile indus- try, showing all the different steps and mechanical devices that are assembled to make the complete product. But no club can ever attain success without a good leader, and this brings hir. Thomas, our excellent head and adviser, to the front. For a long time he has worked faithfully thinking only of the good of the organization and at last he has brought 'to the front, a club which proclaims his remarkable efforts. WI' 7 .

IIGWS To Promote Brotherhood CTOBER of 1935 found the Alpha Hi-Y of Kingston High School starting work on a new membership plan originated by the Wyoming Valley Hi-Y Council. lt involves a progressive membership system which, to the minds of the members, is a splendid way to become more closely associated with the real Hi-Y objective. ln this new plan, the boy aspiring to membership is given a chance to earn himself a place in the club by working out a project instead of being voted in by the other members. Prospective members are given certain research tasks to perform and any boy who really wishes to, can, with little effort and some initiative, attain the right to wear the Hi-Y pin. Thus will the organization be more certain of securing interested young men to carry on the much neglected work. ln November, elections were held for club oihcers. following a very close race, the results were announced MEI' as follows: Harold Pittman was elected president, to be assisted by William R. lVIorgan, as vice-president. William llflorgan was chosen treasurer, and Carl Kashen- bach, secretary. As this book goes to press, we are anticipating with great eagerness the high spot of the year in regards to social affairs-the annual Hi-Y dinner dance held jointly by the Alpha and Beta Chapters. This event will prob- ably be held once more at the lrem Temple Country Club. In closing, may we, the departing members, wish hlr. Schulz great -success with the new membership plan. We feel that with a bit of cooperation from the present and prospective members, he will succeed in making the Hi-Y a very fine organization for high school boys. lf-N P241
