The wife, the mother, the homemaker, the nurse, the teacher, do the really important work in the world. This work demands unstinting ser- vice organizations at Sitka High, training-grounds for future Florence Nightingales, Gold Star Mothers, domestic heroines. The Library Club is one of these self-less clubs-without glamor, without public acclaim-but altogether essential to the smooth running of a modern educational plant. These ten members issued books, checked them back into the library, and helped students locate magazines and books. Treasurer Sydney Hert specialized in making out fine slips: hers was also the dreary task of dunning the delinquent. Margie Klingbeil, secretary, was in charge of the file cabinet. Appointing duties kept Mary Lou Sunde, president, on the go. Shirley Richter and Donna Kuehn put up bulletin board displays and the typing was done by Sharon Handy. Mr. James Haniger served as faculty sponsor.

Our new photo club the Shutterbugs was established under the direction of Mr. Rowe at the beginning of this school year. The c1ub's aims were to learn more about pictures and photography. The first semester's officers were Bob Cameron, president, Marilyn Latta, vice-presidentg Pat Harrigan, secretaryg Wally Volz, treasurer. We learned how to develop and print film, using Mr. Rowe's enlarger. On several different occasions we saw slides and movies. The broom closet was fixed up into a small but efficient dark room. Our club had a bake sale to raise funds and we also took a field trip up Mt. Verstovia. We started the second semester with a new advisor, Mr. Lemke, and new officers. Wally Volz was elected presidentg Marilyn Latta assisted him as vice- presidentg Sharon Handy had the job as secretary, and Gretta Hodges took in that clanky stuff-money. We studied composition of pictures and at one meeting Mrs. De Armond, our guest speaker, discussed this subject. A Shutterbug photo contest was held and winning pictures were sent to a national contest. Each mem- ber was awarded a photo club pin.

and Ula! lax Laughter and suspense were in the air when Arsenic and Old Lace, the all-school play, directed by Mr. James Haniger, was given March Z1. Mortimer Brewster found out that his two dear maiden aunts, Abbey and Martha, were engaged in a bizarre contest of murder of lonely old men. Unexpectedly, another nephew, Jonathan, arrived with Dr. Einstein who was also in a contest of murder. Teddy Brewster believed himself to be Teddy Roosevelt and helped his sisters by burying their victims in the cellar thinking they died of yellow fever in Panama. Mortimer's predicament was complicated further by his fiancee, Elaine Harper, trying to find why he called off their wedding. Miss Abby Brewster sweet old lady Georgia Price Rev.
