Power's agency be- ing too far away, each student had his chance to model for the class. Different projects have been chosen for individual groups during this year. Under guidance of our master artist, Mrs. Kinney, the club meets every Monday night for actual work on these projects. The class is open to adult membership. Claudine Eldred was elected President, June Garrison, Vice-President, Marilyn Price, Secretary, and Joan Michel, the Treasurer.

The Annual Spring Concert last May took a great deal of effort in preparation, but the re- sults were well worth all the work. We hope that the concert this year will be as good as last year's. In November, the band combined with bands from several other schools to contri- bute to part of the fine musical program at the Oxford Festival in November. Other activities on which we have participated are a combined rehearsal with Afton, the Norwich Festival, the Decoration Day Parade, the basketball games with Afton and Oxford, and assembly program in January, and an out-door concert in June. The band now has only thirty-two members, but we hope to have more next year. Pauline Palmer

FRENCH CLUB This fall nine interested second and third year French students turned out for their first French Club meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. King. It was agreed that we would speak nothing but French. For the first fifteen minutes this system worked, but due to circumstances beyond our control,-English gradually crept in. At this meet- ing we played French games, sang French songs, and talked over current affairs. But that which we were all anticipating was Mrs. King's refreshments which were all we thought they would be. We had two other such meetings. One of which was at Christmas time. At this meeting we sang French Christmas carols, had Christmas refreshments and a won- derful time. During the Christmas vacation we lost one of our most enthusiastic members, Barbara Hackett, who moved to Hoffmans, N.Y. The other members are: Claudine Eldred, Violet Westerberg, Margaret Cudworth, Linda Salzberg, Arnold Craig, Thomas Lee, Corky Landre, and Gary Holman. The purpose of our French Club is to improve our French prommciation and to help us to become acquainted with the customs and lives of the people of France. Through the efforts of both Mr. and Mrs. King, we all believe we know much more about the French and France. Linda Salzberg THE Xrays ' The first Science Club of B.C.H.S. was organized on December 8, 1948 with thir- teen members. These are: Beverly Archer, Marie Elder, Eugenia Landers, John Armstrong, David Coe, Hugh Collins, Arnold Craig, Larry Dykman, Gary Holman, Dick Hoyt, Tommy Lee, John Sejerson, Royce Stoutenberg, and Roger Weeks. Miss Smith is the adviser. The function of the club is to provide opportunities for work in science beyond that of the classroom. Every member of the group is required to work on and demonstrate to the group a project in science in which he is interested. To be eligible for membership the student must maintain a passing average in his work. The first formal program was held at the January 17 meeting. David Coe, Arnold Craig, and Hugh Collins cooperated to show a display of fireworks. Sparklers, colored fires, and serpent eggs were demonstrated. This was climaxed by the all star fire ex- hibit which sent a huge cloud of smoke -- atom bomb pattern billowing up toward the ceiling and all 'the scientists hanging out the windows. More programs, with and without fumes, will follow. Y A A 4
