ariety is the name of the game for the Co-Ed Club! The amount of work accomplished by this single group is absolutely mind-boggling. First of all, the annual MotherfSon, Father! Daughter banquet kicked off the club's activities. The growing number of student participants attests to its great success. Following the superb sponsorship of the dinner, Co-Ed members put their noses to the grindstone and organized the Mll-lS food drive. Growing more successful with each passing year, this all-school effort produces cans upon cans of much needed goods for local food banks. With two maior activities down, only one remained, Spring Tolo!

Chess Club CIHECKMATE hessa. Many blow it off as nothing more than the elibate's way of occupying time. et, chess is more than that, much ore. As senior Alex Goldstein says, Playing chess takes lots of mental iscipline and rigorous training. et, beyond the complex tellectual stuff, Alex admits that e doesn't play chess to test imself, and that in fact chess is just a great way to kill an afternoon. In tact, most of the widely held eliets bout the Chess Club hold no ruth. One does not need a alculator watch and a subscription to Science Digest to join, and one can be of other than the male gender. For, this year, two females joined, Jennifer Croft and Sharon Seldon. This addition destroys the final myth surrounding the club, that one must use Brill Cream in one's hair. So, for all those chess critics out there, lighten up and add a little culture to your lifestyles. Try out the game of chess on a lonely night, or better yet, play a game with your date instead of going to a movie. Who knows, you might lust get a CheckMate!
