Members explore the posi- tion of the United States in domestic and foreign affairs as they relate to world-wide events. Members are assigned an area of the world and act as a kind of individual press service for the other members. News is acquired through contact with embassies and regular press chan- nels. Local speakers spark interest and enthusiasm in the group. A better understanding of news and the ability to analyse and interpret it from the standpoint of Christian morality is the goal of this constructive group. 65

Back row: J. Ellick, D. Westover Front row: M. O'Connell, A. Bianchi, W. Marx, P. Hennis The Photography Club has again com- pleted a most successful year. The young men in this club have, for the benefit of the Echo, the Panther, and their per- sonal scrapbooks, snapped pictures of students, faculty, sports activities, and many candid situations around the school. Each week a meeting was held during the noon-hour. At these meetings various members of the club, each experienced in some particular phase of photography, took the podium to explain to his fel- lows some fine point in the taking or de- veloping of a picture. ln the background, but whose influence and energy never ceased to be felt, was the club's moder- ator, Mr. James Nugent, S.J. The Echo and the Panther staffs both extend a hearty thanks to the members of the Photography Club for their assist- ance this year. RADIO CLUB l-r: M. Gabrielson, G. Smith, H. Hilling, J. Merkel, J. McDevitt, D. Rogers. Other members include D. Schreiber, D. Carey, B. Morris, B. Flajole, M. Vincent, D. English, D. Druliner and N. Puzzo. T The Radio Club at Seattle Prep is perhaps the most enioyable of the schooI's lesser known clubs. Member- ship in the club leads to a ham license. Radio theory, taught by the club's mod- erator, Mr. James Nugent, S. J., along with his own special method of learning the code quickly, is a great stimulus to the members. The Radio Club is a life-molding club in that it could provide the means to a career in the vast radio-television- communications industry. It provides a profitable hobby that could very well last for life. We wish success to all its members.
