GIRLS ' BLOCK L Parish. B., Elliott, E.. BUkely, C, Wenzke. L.. Infravia. A., Cunningham, P., Seput, E. An organization at Lincoln that merits furtlier recognition on the part of its students is the Girls ' Block L. It was started in the Fall of 1941 by its able and interested sponsor. Miss Aileen C. Norton, girls ' physical education teacher. Like most newer organizations, the enrollment of the Block L has not increased in momentous proportions. Since the time when the first five charter members formed the club last term, two of the members were graduated and there have been four new additions making nine members in all. Each of the members has met the requirements. They have earned their Block L, awarded by the G.A.A., by completing six successful terms in after-school sports. In addition, mem- bers must have a commendable citizenship and have an average grade of C be- ginning in the high ten grade. The purpose of the Girls ' Block L is to promote and develop leadership and to provide an active interest in girls ' athletics. ' With this purpose in mind, the girls act as referees, ushers, and keep order at G.A.A. rallies. The Block L girls meet twice a month during school time. Officers, all of whom are charter members, are, Lorraine Wenzke, president; Corella Blakeiy, vice- president ; and Anne Intravia, secretary-treasurer.

The members photograph many of the pictures for the Lincoln Log and the Roundup. The club may boast of having a fourth floor darkroom equipped with an enlarger. An interesting survey has been taken on the number of prints ruined by beginners learning how to print and develop pictures. A student ' s first endeavor at printing pictures usually results in two pictures spoiled to every one picture that is actually printed. It takes long years of experience before a technique can be per- fected by means of which all of the pictures will come out satisfactorily. Even a great pleasure is experienced by the beginner when enlarging is learned. But the individual has to know the principles of printing and developing before starting to enlarge. The Camera Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Manahan, meets every Wednes- fter school. Many pictures taken and printed by the club are often exhibited the first flooB fculletin board. The officers of the club are President Jack Cunning- Vice P dent Stephen Mitoff, Secretary-Treasurer Ken McDonald. d jfrham, REGISTRY 329 Front Row: McLaughlin, G., War- fel, R., Ander.son, L., Bain, J., Morrice, A., Kull, J.
