JUNIOR BOYS, CLUB ' When Mr. Hollister offered to guide another Junior Boys Club, he was over- whelmed at the respo-nse to the first meeting called, for over one hundred boys from the Junior Class assembled in the Boys Club Room. The main purpose of the club is to uphold the traditions of Lindblom, to have the opportunity to make new friends and to renew acquaintances with old friends. In order to hold the interest of both Junior classes, two officers from the 3B class and two from the 3A class Were elected. Louis Biro, a 3A, was unanimously elected prisident. Luther Cooperrider, as a representative of the lower Juniors, won the position of vice-president. The office of secretary was given to Louis Adezio also an upper Junior. Alvin Levy came out on top in the race for treasurer. At the meetings, which are held every second Tuesday during the ninth period, Don Chichester, the program chairman, presents fine, diversified pro- grams. These programs are either of a musical nature or some well-known speaker comes to talk to the boys and the boys always enjoy the full forty min- utes allored to their meetings. Although entertainment occupies a large part of the programs, the meetings are often taken up for more serious business. At the first program Mr. Moore was the principal speaker. He told the boys about the development of the automobile, and of the trips he has taken in them. The many trips taken by him during the past years composed the latter part of talk. In concluding he told the boys to budget their expenses now, so they may be able to travel in future years. Walter Hess demonstrated some drum techniques on the snare drum and Dorothy Kummer gave some readings to conclude the first program. Mr. Laughlin spoke about deferred values and Mr. Palmer told of his travels through the Orient in the following meetings. During the past semester the Junior Boys Club has done all in its power to make and keep Lindblom beautiful, and to obey the school rules. It was brought together the boys of the 3B and 3A classes and has helped them to become better acquainted with boys in their own class. Many of the friend- ships formed through the club have lasted after schooling into later life. Any boy who is in his third year at school is eligible to join the club. The semester dues are 20c and the pin, which is not compulsory, costs 25c. The dues go for the group picture in the annual, and for the big social event of the semester, the big feed, which the club members have at the close of their stag. Although the membership taxed the club room to the limit, the meetings were always orderly. The boys will always cherish the hours they have spent in the club room as members of this organization. Mr. Hollister's cheery smile and generous advice have gone a long Way toward making the club a success. Page One Hundred Two

SENIOR BOYS' CLUB ' To develop and foster the art of fellowship ,the Senior Boyfs Club was or- ganized. Under the leadership of Mr. Hollister the club has made a name for itself in the portals of Lindblom as one of the finest organizations for senior boys in the school. They make up the club and it is theirs to decide whether it shall be a rousing, good organization or an inactive body. T The club boasts a large membership and often the room is taxed to its capac- ity. A jolly and humorous atmosphere prevails at all meetings. The boys ex- peccantly look forward to their gatherings, because of the entertaining pro- grams which are always presented, because of the opportunity the club offers of speaking with other boys of your own class, and because of the good fellow- ship in the group. This spirit makes the Senior Boy's Club an organization of which the members and the entire school may well be proud. It is but one of the many organizations of the school which helps to bring its boys into closer relationship with their second home, Lindblom. The club meets every second Tuesday, ninth period, in the Boy's Club room. The boys always have a good time at the meetings, often adding their own witty remarks to liven up the programs, or applauding to show their appre- ciation of the talent appearing before them. The co-operation of the officers of the club with their sponsor, Mr. Hollister, was reflected in the fact that all the boys enjoyed every meeting they attended. Most of the meetings are very informal, so that the boys may be more at ease while attending them. The entertainment chairman, James Osborne, al- ways presents the first talent available in Lindblom. The majority of the pro- grams are musical in nature, but the boys have also heard many fine speakers and lecturers throughout the semester. The boys bring the semester to a close with a grand banquet at which everyone overloads himself with the grub prepared for them. The ofhcers of the club have done a great deal to make the past semester a successful one. The president, H. Ruebe, has very capably filled his oflice and with the assistance of Ramcke, the vice-president, has discharged to entire satisfaction the social side of the club's varied activities. Joe Klimczak, the treasurer, had the dillicult job of balancing the books and has shown great ability in this position. The secretary, Joe Molengraft, has kept the minutes of the meeting and other records very ably. The committee heads were John Organiscak, and John Drankiewicz. The boys will soon be leaving Lindblom, but the fine impression they have made will always remain. They have left a very admirable record for the future clubs to attain. Mr. Hollister the sponsor of this group, has been very successful in directing the club and has accomplished much for the organization. Page One Humired Four
