STUDENTS BECOMING PROFICIENT WITH SLIDE RULE Under the capable direction of Mr. Schlegel, the Slide Rule Club has diligently applied its time to the solution of problems in multiplication, division, square roots, and trigonometric functions. In addition, the club has tackled many of the formal proofs in connection with the theory of number and algebra. The club meets once a week on Tuesday afternoons. Regular members of the club include Phyllis Snow, Rayner Kenison, Milton Notman, Joanne Elso, Ted Manning, Calvin Heath, Alan Rice, and Uldis Delvik. l ' J r w 1 k 1 r GLEE CLUB LINES UP TO SMILE FOR PHOTOGRAPHER The first formal concert of the 1958-59 season was given at the December meeting of the Parent-Teacher Association under the capable direction of Miss Jane O ' Brien, Director of Music. This fine program of Christmas music was enjoyed by the capacity audience which attended. The group is composed of students from all four classes and this year included several male members. When not preparing for a special program, the members enjoy themselves by singing a variety of old and new songs, listening to portions of fine record al- bums, recording their voices on the tape recorder and listening to the results.

This fine product was the work of the ambitious members of the Newspaper Club who learned through experience the trials and tribulations of publishing a newspaper. With Nancy Manning as editor-in-chief, the staff had the additional task of raising funds to finance the project. Funds were raised by cake sales and indivi- dual subscriptions. Highlighting each publication is the selection of the two outstanding students of the quarter, each stud- ent to be selected on the basis of school spirit, scho- lastic achievement, and citizenship. This honor for the first quarter went to Gail Burton and Dave Curran.

Director Demonstrates A Point Though the students of Story High have presen ted and enjoyed successful plays each year, for the first time a formal group has been formed to study and ex- periment with the theater arts. This group is under the supervision of Mr. Purpel, director of school plays for the past two years. The club is planning to present several short plays and will be instrumental in selecting and presenting the annual school play. Although the club is small, it is hoped that it will take roots and become a permanent organization at Story. French Club Plans STANDING, Left to Right: Mr. Purpel E. Gulfillan, J. Christensen, J.

The fourteen members of the club chose at their officers Judy Christensen, president; Cintra Morgan, vice president; Susan Mollison, secretary; and Evelyn Jennings, treasurer. Nancy Manning serves as the program director, and Mary Knox is in charge of publicity.
