CHEMISTRY CLUB FIRST ROW: D. Mendelson, L. Bufferd, J. Clazer. SECOND ROW: D. Ben- nett, P. Rawson, B. Bassick. POOF! THE CHEMISTRY CLUB COMPLETED AN EXPERIMENT. Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble .... No, Macbeth did not come to Warde: it was only the enterpris- ing Chemistry Club working at full speed. Meeting during both activity periods, the Club reviewed the basic laws of chemistry, made guncotton tnitro- cellulosel, titrated acetic and hydrochloric acid, and studied synthetics. Since each meeting was only forty-five minutes long, many meetings were used for preparation, computation, and discussion of ob- servations from experiments, but all meetings pro- vided practical information to supplement class- room chemistry. THE EYES HAVE IT,', EXPLAIN BIOLOGY CLUB MEMBERS BOB COHEN AND LAUREN FRANK. MIXING ONE DROP OF AN ACID WITH TWO DROPS OF A BASE, CHEMISTRY CLUB MEM- BERS CONCOCT APPLE CIDER. THE BIOLOGY CLUB PROBES INTO THE WONDERS OF SCIENCE. The members of the Biology Club did not live under the illusion of being new Darwins or Agas- sizsg they did not pretend to have found the secret of how plants convert starch to proteins: however, frequent movies on the developments and basic principles of modern biology, field trips to local hospitals, and discussions by noted scientists were not illusions, but zealous activities of the club. Through such activities as these, members increased their knowledge and skills, and probed further into the intricacies of biology. BIOLOGY CLUB FIRST ROW: A. Kantrow, G. Dennan, A. Reuther, B. House, A. Jurgielewicz, S. Sheiman, B. Danberg. THIRD ROW: L. H. Lang. J. Kronmel. SECOND ROW: B. Bersch, M. Winer, Grubb, R. Cohen, M. Nash.

RED CROSS AIDS IN COMMUNITY SERVICE. The Junior Red Cross, a branch of the Service Committee of Andrew Warde, performs various services for the community during the year. In addition, it is one of the few school organizations which function throughout the summer, for some of its' members willingly volunteer to become switchboard operators and generally to aid the senior members at the Fairfield Chapter House. One of the club's most interesting meetings oc- curred in March when Miss Ruth Isaacs spoke on home services. Such meetings as these stimulate an interest in this most worthwhile club. SANDY WALLACE, ROSEMARY SZOST, AND JANICE TOMASKOVIC HELP TO KEEP WARDE'S LIBRARY NEAT AND ATTRACTIVE. 3 MRS. LILLIAN RUNDECKER GIVES JUNIOR RED CROSS MEMBERS USEFUL POINTERS ON COM- MUNITY SERVICE. THE PAGE TURNERS ASSIST WARDE'S LIBRARIANS. Though Deweyis Decimal System has made li- brary organization understandable to anyone who can count, the need for trained librarians is still great. At Warde, the Page Turners pick up where Dewey left off and give library service, learn library methods, and teach fellow students necessary li- brary techniques. This year the Club provided sea- sonal decorations for the library, constructed books for blind children, represented Warde at the meet- ing of the statewide library club, and sponsored a poster contest for National Library Week.

RUSSIAN CLUB FIRST ROW: B. Wettenstein, D. Lathrop, A. Gazdik, A. Chernak. SECOND ROW: M. Rosenman, D. Korczakowski, K. Lieberthal, Advisor H. Dixon. THE RUSSIAN CLUB STUDIES RUSSIAN LIFE AND CULTURE. Though everyone has heard of Russia, the gen- eral public thinks of this vast country more as an arms factory than as a nation whose culture is con- ducive to much stimulating study. Warde's Russian Club, however, gained an appreciation of the songs, dances, history, and religion of this country through such activities as listening to folk music, learning songs and dances, and visiting the Holy Ghost Rus- sian Orthodox Church in Bridgeport. The Club,s advisor, Mrs. Helen Dixon, offered a fund of infor- mation based on her experience as a guide at the Russian Exhibition in Moscow during the summer of '59 and helped to make Russia come alive for club members.
