This club is for those who desire a knowledge of typewriting and are not able to in- clude it in their program. 'We are 'taught the same as the pupils who take typewriting during the regular periods. Miss Hogan carefully instructs each pupil separately and as a result we have some fine typists. As soon as the pupils know how to type well they do school work for the office and teachers. Miss Hogan is trying to form a Mimeograph Club among the boys in the Typewriting Club. W'hen this is done the boys will know how to cut a stencil, and to run it off on the machine. This will help the G. O. because we will be able to send out a great many pamphlets which will advertise games. At every meeting President Joseph Brill addresses the club on subjects pertaining to typewriting. During the Business Show held at the Grand Central Palace, Miss Hogan took the members of the club, and others who are taking typewriting, to the show. Anthony Pollina is secretary of the club and Benjamin Leibowitz acts as an assistant to Miss Hogan. THE PRESS CLUB In the short time that the Press Club has been in existence, it has been ranked as one of the best clubs in the school. This club was brought about for the purpose of writing about the different sports and activities of Textile and reporting to the different city newspapers, so that the name of Textile High School 'would be spread further. The manner in which the members of the club do this, is one that should be commended. The members are assigned to a certain newspaper. They go to see the school editor of the paper and convince him that they are able to give him some good high school news. VVhen they have won the editor over, they set about obtaining all the news of the school and send it to the editor of the paper. All football, baseball, soccer, basketball events and other sports in Textile are attended by the members of the Press Club. In the year and a half that the club has functioned there have appeared more write-ups about our Purple and VV'hite than ever before in the history of Textile. Those to be thanked for this service are the members of the Press Club of Textile High School. at E LQIHIIIIIIITHIIIIIIHHH!VIUmIUliiilllillliiiilliIIIIIIUIFKIILUTHIIIUITIHHUUIIHIUHIIUULlLllHm'l'l'IUI!llilillllllllIIIIhllllI'IElllIlJIlIll1IIIllIIlll1flIlllJTll!I1Tllll1'lIJ fi mmzmlmmnunmxnummmrrrrunulI11111111111m1IlumWmli1ii mmmmm1u U j l77l

Under the guidance of hir. Fredenburgh it has grown to be the largest club in Textile. The number of members now is well over two hundred. Many of the members are now wo1'king at positions which the club, with the co- operation of its able faculty adviser, has supplied them. 5 The Electrical Engineering Club not only stands as a help to its members educationally but also socially, economically, and in an athletic way. The club now supports three teams-baseball, basketball, and the latest addition, a handball team. 'M The club promotes trade visits to many prominent corporations in the electrical : field. A few of these companies are as follows: 1 Okonite lfVire and Cable Company, Passaic, N. J. E Edison Lamp Institute, Paterson, N. General Electric Co., Newark, N. J. 2 Otis Elevator Co., Yonkers, N. Y. E E Brooklyn Navy Yard E ' Brooklyn Edison Co., Brooklyn, N. Y. i The club has had seven sets of ofhcers since its organization, each set holding - office one school term. The present officers are: President ..................... . . . William Kehrt 5 Vice-Presiclent .. .. John Undenstock , OD Treasurer ........ ...... ......... J a mes Wilson co' Sec1'etm'y ...................... VVilliam Hoffman Besides Mr. Fredenburgh, the club has four other teachers as honorary mem- bers-Mr. Linley, Mr. Donnelly, Mr. Rubyar, and Mr. Shea. They all have helped to make the club the biggest and best in Textile. THE CAMERA CLUB . The Camera Club of Textile High School was started under the supervision of lVI1'. O'Connor in the fall of 1928. After one year of effort it has risen to a . place, second to none in enthusiasm and attendance. ' F A dark room was built by the boys and now the electrical effects should soon 3 put the Textile Camera Club in the position of photographing the pictures for all E , future editions of the LooM. . ' Some of the boys have been successful in a commercial way. Harold Black 3 sold many news pictures with a by line to the New York Daily News. Harry 5 Levinson worked as assistant to Frisedy, the most famous of all sports photograph- ers. Isadore Golub earned his summer vacation as camp photographer, and many E others too numerous to mention here have taken their camera seriously. In our E 5 new building ample space and up-to-date material will make our Club one of the 2 finest in American high schools. 3 Look to us soon to take all the photographs of Textile High School at rock E bottom prices. 2 fcQm mmWUMmEmMMMHlm EMImmHMIUlM1 m U U . - l76l E 5 E E fl E E

BI. Kelly, faculty advisor. The name Cooperative Comradesn was unanimously accepted. The members meet every Wednesclay and deposit five cents in the treasury in order to cover the expenses for the requested refreshments. Dancing and entertainment prevail at every meeting. , On December 20, 1929, the Comrades held a Christmas Party. Like all social events held by the Cooperative Comrades, the Christmas Party was an unusual event. The grab-bag contributions from lVoolw0rth helped to make the party hi- la1'ious. The Cooperative Comrades intend to have many more successful social events. The active officers are: President ................. . . .

Morano V C25 Edward Gardety The aim of the club is to give the boys further knowledge of the printing in- dustry by visits to various printing plants, weekly talks and discussions in the shop. The splendid work that is being done for the school by the boys of the printing department is due to the uniting efforts of our instructor and faculty adviser, Mr. G. XV. Boofer. The knowledge the boys possess of the following items: linotype and various type-casting machines, lithography, paper industry, making of inks, types of presses and their importance to the printed word, are due to the wonder- ful explanations and talks given to us by our instructor. DRAMATIC CLUB . Ojicers Presiclent ..... .................. N aomi Leaf Vice-President . . . . Richard De lVIartini Secretary ....................... Anabelle Mellon For many terms Mr. Snyder has superintended the activities of the Dramatic Club at the Fortieth Street Building. Alas, joint meetings are no longer allowed, but the separate buildings are accomplishing much with excellent plays given in their respective buildings. 'We hope, with our occupation of the new building, 'to have a well-organized Dramatic Club, which, with the cooperation of all its mem- bers will give even better plays than the entertaining ones it has given in the past.
