Varstiy Club The varsity club started out looking like it might get up on its feet again. But after the initial enthusiasm, the club returned to its usual dormant state. At the beginning of the year, the varsity club members donated their time to sell candy and take tickets for the athletic club. But after the fall season, volunteers were hard to come by. Granted athletes are busy, but they should be able to put some time into an organization that buys their meals and pays for their trips. FIRST ROW (L TO R) H. Miller, T. Collins, B. Ryan, J.
