Girls' Glee Club Tupf--fll1i'icli, Putz, Giese, li. Dickie, H. llickie, Spaulding, Hayes, Deyhle, Draper Middle- Ilorth, Lange, VVRVIIG, Griep, Fredricks, M. Warne, J. Gurgel Lowe Apker. llewitt, Hauer, Miss Lamb, M, Wilmwske, Chute, D. Lange, IS. Wilzcwske The success of the organization is largely determined by its public activities. With that statement for our authority. we can say that the Glee Club this year was one of our most successful groups. The operetta, My Spanish Sweetheart, which was presented in spring, was an out- standing performancc. The plot was fairly complicated, and the vocal parts somewhat difficult, but the presentation was excellent. We hope that the girls who did their initial work in the society this year will profit by their experiences and develop into soloists so that they will be able to take the places of the soloists now leaving school. In addition to the operetta, the Glee Club was on hand several times when music was needed at public functions. Miss Lamb, sponsor for this organization, is entitled to much of the credit for the season's success. Page Seventeen

Student Council An organization new in our school life this year was the Student Council. This organization was composed of two members elected by each class, and a president elected by the entire student body, Members for the past year were, for the Freshmen, Thelma Putz and Dean Hackettg for the Sophomores, Hazel Hintz and Claire Hayes who was succeeded by Erwin Scharag for the Juniors, Wilbur Schmidt and Helen Dickie, for the Seniors, Carl Ristau and Rita Griep. The president ot the organiz- ation was Philipp Lange. The purpose of this organization was to familiarize the students with the problems of self-government. By being attentive to their own con- duct as a group, a better type of citizenship was developed. Several laws were discussed and passed by this group which did much toward creat- ing a better public spirited atmosphere throughout the school. It is hoped that this organization may continue throughout future years. Boys' Athletic Association For the purpose of interesting every boy in school in some form of athletics, a Boys' Athletic Association was organized. This group, which included all the boys in school, arranged a well rounded program of athletic events which would appeal to every boy. It was decided that boys who did creditable work in five phases of athletics should be awarded a school HN. In addition to this, the boys who represented the school on the basketball team, were awarded a service bar on their letters. We can truthfully say that this organization accomplished more than its purpose. Every boy took part in some form of athletics. In most schools where only major sports are stressed, the majority of the boys must sit on the sidelin-es. Here we had all boys taking part and being benefitted. Girls' Athletic Association Similar to the boys' organization of this name, the girls also wanted to bring each girl out into the open for her share of athletics, Hiking clubs, volley ball, basketball, tennis, track and indoor baseball were found on their program for the year. It was not merely a suggested program. Every one of the above events was well patronized, and some skillful girl athletics were developed. The girls also had an award which was given to those who distinguished themselves. At the time of this printing we are unable to list the names of those receiving the award. Page Nineteen
