I-II-Y HE UNIVERSITY Hi-Y is an organization that meets outside the jurisdiction of the school, but deserves mention here because all its members are Uni students and Blr. Cozens is the club adviser. lNIeetings are held weekly at an informal dinner. A great deal is don.e in discussing school affairs and givin g them an organized push towards success. Don Bird is the president of the club. Preston Hunt is vice-president and has charge of the initia- tions. J. E. VVasson is secretary-treasurer. Bert lNIorton is yell- leader, and Bill VVood and Halford Earlei hold office as student advisers. At present the club is especially interested in making an amateur movie. The plot is very melodramatic. According to all predictions the picture will be a rival to Hollywood,s best. Carl Fay, Phil VVood, Lee Borne, Pete Van Valkenburgrh, George Hadlen, Fulton Tooker, Bill Brock, Andy W3llSt1'Hm, El- bert Ashland, Joe Stringfellow, and Tommy Spilker were the Hi-Y initiates this semester. CLUB DAY Club Day, an entirely new experiment in this school,s program of cooperation, made itself apparent to the student body on Feb- ruary 7. The Club Presidents, luncheon was the first event on the day,s program. Olive Van-ce, Girls, League President, officiated, and ex- plained that the meeting was an attempt to create feeling among club presidents. The entertainment at 3 o,clock consisted of seven numbers pre- sented by different clubs and individuals. Those participating were Leonard Tonson, Hilda Hirsch, the Junior G.A.A., Gi1'ls, Art Club, International A. O. Club, Dorothy Drury, and the Girls, Glee Club sextet. Janet Lamb was the chairman of the affair. This Club Day is something new in every way, and it is to Betty Lawton we owe thanks for the successful manner in which it was carried out. Because of its great success, it will probably become a tradition in the school.

IQIFLE TEAM HE RIFLE Team of the University High School, organi- zed for the purpose of giving boys interested in shooting an opportunity to develop their prowess and ability, has emerged from an interesting season. In their practice and other efforts at the home gallery, the boys gained a fundamental knowledge of shooting and also theoretical practice. Then came preparation for the match at the State rifle range at Leona Heights. As there was competition with the regular army men, the best material was sent and practice was essential. The match this year lasted for three days. The first day was practice day, and the following ones were given over to the final shooting. The range is 200 yards, and a thirty caliber United States Army rifle is used. There are three possible classes to be attained. The first is the expert class, the second is sharpshooter, and the third is marksman. Richard Sanders was the only one from this school to be- come a sharpshooter. All the others with 190 or above are nrarksman. An improvement was noted over the scores of last year, and a favorable showing was made by the team for this school. GIIQLI' IQECEIDTIUN Against a background of spring flowers and modernistic designs, the Big Sisters gave their reception to the new girls Friday, January 21, after school in the libra1'y. The lilies, daffodils, and acacia helped to camouflage the library and make it appear a lovely reception room. As each guest entered, she was introduced by her big sister to ltliss ltlarion Brown, dean of girls, Dr. George A. Rice, principal, Bill VVood, student body president, Betty Lawton, big sister to all the girls, and Olive Vance, president of the Girls, League. Then they were all served refreshments of ice cream, cookies, and candy by Helen Schrader and her committee. Several welcoming speeches were given by those who had stood in the receiving line, and then a program of music and a reading followed. Frances Branch read the Girls' creed, Helen lNIcCormick sang two songs, Hilda Hirsch played two piano solos, and a quartet of old girls played several selections and the school song.
