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

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.

The Beta Chapter also used the progress sive memhership plan originated hy Hi-Y Council. lflection of oliicers was held early in November, and meetings at the cluh room in the Wilkes-Bzirre Central Y. hi. C. A. started immediately. These meetings were well planned hy lllr. Piccone and Harry Croop, president.
