HI-Y CLUB Richard Merritt..........................President Alan Moore...............................Pice-President George Reiccer...........................Secretary Bruce Benson............................. Treasurer “Mine honor is my life; both grow in one: Take honor from me, anti my life is done” THE West Hi-Y Club is divided into two chapters, the “Cogs” and the “CXC. Each one has its own meetings and officers, hut they arc united in carrying out the Hi-Y purpose, “to create, maintain, and extend, throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. The chapters also combine in putting on campaigns and projects. One of the projects of the fall term is publishing the Hi-Y Handbook. The staff endeavors to collect all important information about the school and to print it in a handy and interesting form. This handbook is especially valuable to new students. The way in which the school accepts it indicates that the pupils realize its worth. Besides this work, the Hi-Y Club serves the school in directing new freshmen: ushering at commencement, and securing speakers for a few assemblies. One of the most important campaigns is the “Vocational Guidance” or “Find Yourself Campaign.” The object is to give the fellows of the school an opportunity to discuss the occupation they intend to he their life work, with a man who knows it. During the interview, the fellow can discover if he is suited to that line of business, if there is a futuruc to it, and if he is laying the right foundaton. The other side is the development of character and ideals received froc club meetings and conferences. Sthonc. McPiii.koom. Hiintvw»n. K«M»r. Joiinmn.

tel ACES' CLUB George Riebe................................President FhaNCIS MifRFF.Lt)..........................Vice-President Charles Warren..............................Secretary and Treasurer We are gentlemen that neither Envy the great, nor do the low despise. IN May. 1920, a group of fellows interested in the activities of West got together and formed the Aces Club. In forming this club they had three definite aims: first, to promote cleaner and better athletics, second, to establish cooperation among athletes, students, and faculty, and third, to create a better spirit of fellowship among the student body. In short, the general idea of the Aces' Club was to promote general harmony and good will. This June several of our members will be lost by graduation; however, we hope to fill these vacancies next year with fellows who have the true interests of West at heart and who will carry on the work so successfully begun by our charter members, flic Aces' members wish to express their appreciation to our faculty advisers. Miss Wilson, Miss O’Gordon, Mr. Zavodskv, and Mr. Richardson and to our friends for their part in our most successful year. All in all the Aces’ Club represents a general movement for uplift of the school and the betterment of existing conditions whenever they are found to be faulty or in need of improvement. Such an organization will always have a permanent place among the institutions of any high school. Jtcotwx, Matt © . Muuitui. Conway, Yiuanb Harvey, Crandall, Heir .
