Each week during the school year the local Joumal Herald publishes the activities both academic and extra-curricular to the public through the school paper called the Agitator. The staff members gather, organize and write the news. By doing this, qualities of accuracy, dependability, originality and a feeling of satisfaction are developed. The Agitator, sponsored by Harry Mooney, is affiliated with the Iowa High School Press Association. .

f ser J ' LETTERMEN'S CLUB The Lettermen's Club, known as the A Club, was organized in l958 with membership open to any high school boy who has lettered in any of the varsity sports and who maintains a satis- factory scholastic average. The purpose of the club is to increase an interest in athletics, promote Fair play and sports- manship, and pride in wearing the eamed letter. Monthly meetings were held under the supervision of Coaches Richard Lake and Milton Jen- sen. The club's income is derived from the selling of soft drinks and popcorn at home basket- ball games. Booster Buttons were sold to help finance the organization. The money in the club at the end of the year was used to help pay For a whirlpool purchased earlier. This is a physical therapy machine used for the treatment of injuries of AvoHa's athletes. The club holds an annual spring picnic for its members.
