RED CROSS CLUB The Red Cross Club is well known in this area for the gifts and favors made to hospitals and for the success- ful fund raising drives, for the National Red Cross. This club, under the leader- ship of Mary Blakeslee, performs other services for the community and hos- pitals.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB Left to Right: T. Longo, G. Smith, L. DeGennaro. Bzzzz AVA Despite a loss of its old oflice to the-new German class- room, the Audio Visual Club continues. This hard-work- ing group of boys is responsible for all films, tapes, and records in school, as well as for the stage and the radio music in the' cafeteria. The club emphatically denies responsibility for the clock failures, or the rock and roll slipped into your history class. The club is advised by James S. Kenny. Left to Right: R. Lesniak, K. Garrety, P. LaVorgna, M. Jelasko, M. McKeever, R. Clair, J. Anthes, P. Sorrentino. LIBRARY CLUB The major purpose ofthe Library Club is to be a serv- ice club. Every girl who is a member, donates at least one period weekly of her free time to the library. This one hour, besides serving the school, helps to train the girls. The club meets on Thursdays. The Library Club is a member of a state library association, Nutmeg 020. All of the girls attend meetings of this association throughout the state. During the spring, a Saturday workshop is held where representatives attend all-day meetings. In December the club attended a theater party and saw The Man Who Came to Dinner at Long Wharf Theater. At the end of the year, pins will be awarded to those who have contributed the most to the club. Back Row: C. Goodrich, G. Tegtmeier, G. Bergen, Rec. Sec., K. Froeberg, G. Pulito, Treas., D.
