PROJECTION CLUB Members of the Projection Club have several tasks to perform before the students of a class can enjoy a classroom movie. They receive little credit for their work which often must be done quickly because of limited time. The student usually thinks only of the movie. The Club is comprised of a group of boys who willingly give a part of their school hours to operate the movie projector so that others may get the best reception possible from the film presented. It is no easy task to move the projector and equipment from one room to another, expecially from one floor to the other. The projectionist is handling a machine of no small value, both monetarily and educationally. Today, if any great harm should come to the machine it would be impossible to replace it. Each member realizes this responsibility. The duties of the members of this club are to obtain the film from the metal container in the office, set up the projector and equipment, thread the film, make lens, sound and distance adjustments, rewind films for future showings, and move everything to another room when necessary. Recently at one of the club meetings, members learned how to splice films that are broken due either to age of film or to improper care in handling. SENIOR SCHOLARSHIP TEAM Ten members of the senior class were chosen to compete with representatives from other schools throughout the state in senior general scholarship tests prepared by the state department of education. These tests were given in English, mathematics, history, science and reading. High achievement in this test is considered indicative of a-bllity. Many colleges and universities issue scholarships based on the results shown. Other fields of work also use the scores from these tests to locate capable graduates necessary for recruits in various jobs. To our own school, participation in these tests gives an opportunity to determine our standing in comparison with other schools of similar size in the state.
