A party for the freshmen in the fall brought nineteen new mem- bers into the club, making a total of sixty. Meeting night was the first and third Monday of the month, and the freshmen and sophomores played the first hour and the upperclassmen, the sec- ond. The preliminary before the Hi- Y game with the faculty gave the spectators a chance to see bas- ketball, feminine style.

S The Y-Teens proposed to have every member par- ticipating in a proiect this year. To carry out this aim, business and planning sessions were held the first meet- ing night of each month, and program or social meet- ings the second. The midwinter conference held in Indianapolis was attended by eleven girls. Seventy members went to the exchange meeting at Bluffton, and a few participated in the panel discussion on Dates and Dating. The girls went caroling at Christmas time and cel- ebrated Valentine's Day with an old fashioned box social. A car-washing proiect provided fun, besides profit. Thirty-six bagssof clothing were collected and sent to Lebanon during the Crusade for Children, the service project for the year. S. Beard, C. lykins, and R. Weaver get things set up for the Y-Teen concession stand. 19
