During the past scholastic year, Societas Honoris, honorary debating society of Liberty High School, has enjoyed a very successful season of forensic activities. The year was initiated with intensive preparations on the question: Resolved, that the cooperatives, as based on the Rochdale principles, are the most practical approach to solving our economic problems. As a member of the Lehigh Valley Interscholastic League, the club participated in two debating tournaments, one of which was held at Catasauqua on March fifth, and the other of which was held at Whitehall on March nineteenth. The latter part of the year was devoted to club activities emphasizing forums, panel discussions, and various types of debating. The highlights of the social season were a Parent ' s Night on April nineteenth and an informal dance on May fourteentli. The adviser of the club was Mr. Charles A. Klein. OFFICERS OF THE CLUB WERE: Presidcin First Vice-President Second Vice-President, Chaplain Treasurer Corresponding Secretary Executive Secretary Social Secretary Paul Cowin Richard Stauffer Edward Luckenbach Edward Cummings Audre Barthold Maurine Torell Barbara Collins MEMBERSHIP Seniors: Audre Barthold, Marjorie Benton, Sally Brown, Barbara Collins, Paul Cowin, Edward Cummings, Joseph Groeger, Doris Handwerk, Jane Hill, Edward Luck- enbach, Martha Schick, Richard Stauffer, Lucille Stephan.

The second Tuesday of every month finds a very feminine group of writers gathered in Room 218 tor a busy hour. Anyone passing the door and peeping through the keyhole will probably see a very earnest person reading from a manuscript to an entranced audience. If the peeping Tom waits long enough, he will soon hear the attack. Criticism and compliments fly back and forth at a furious tempo, for when Scribblers like something or find something which they think quite good, they are very certain to let it be known. Under the able supervision of Miss Mary Crow, the Scribblers have come to the end of another active year. They have contributed to the annual Scholastic Literary Contest. The members have also participated in the American Legion Contest and the State Essay Contest commemorating the two hundredth birthday of Thomas Jef- ferson. This year, three of Scribblers members have gained recognition and have been represented in print. A poem by Marjorie Zable will soon be printed on the Round Table page of Scholastic Magazine. Eleanor Fehnel won honorable mention in a Scholastic essay contest on What Is Your Biggest Problem? For the second con- secutive year, Bernadine Ziegler has won a prize in the American Legion Essay Contest. All work and no play is by no means the Scribblers ' motto. Before sending off their contributions to the Scholastic Literary Contest, they invited their English teach- ers to a tea. At this informal gathering, the girls gained the opinions and criticisms of their instructors. At the end of each school year, a picnic is held at Illick ' s Mill, during which time friendships are renewed with those who have already graduated. Scribblers ' own magazine called Scribblings was produced again this year. The best works of the year were chosen and printed by the club members. It is entirely their own product, an account of what they, as writers in embryo, have been writing, planning, and creating.

Under the excellent direction of Mr. Joseph Ricapito, the 1942-43 Liberty High School Band has lived up to the reputation built by former Bethlehem bands. The band had a busy season last fall playing for all the home football games. The formations this year were a little diflerent from other years. Each week a certain branch of the armed forces was honored with a formation and the playing of its service song. The band also played for the Community Chest banquet at the Hotel Bethlehem, and for High School Night, which was held for the purpose of honoring the high school football team and band, at Emmanuel Evangelical Congregational Church. During the winter season, the band also played for the home basketball games. At the beginning of February, it was doubtful whether Dr. Edwin Franko Gold- man and his son, Mr. Richard Franko Goldman, would be able to come to Bethlehem to appear with our band. Therefore, the annual concert was held on February 25, 1943. Later, Mr. Ricapito was informed that the famed musical family would honor the band by appearing in a concert on April 30, 1943.
