SCIENCE CLUB Young people today are trelemdcusly interested ln the world ln which they live. With the ever-lncreaslng adaptatlon of sclence to modern lndustry, there has arisen a wldespread lnterest ln this field. Science as a school subject has caught the lnterest of the pupil on the baels of lts practloablllty and adaptablllty to later- llfe pursults. Science Clubs as an extra-curricular activity have bean formed ln many of the schools and the work carried on ln these clubs tells lte own story of the practical use to which the students are putting their lnterest in science and of their growing enthusiasm for lt. The pupils are lnterpretlng thelr' studies ln terse of every day llfe --- definitely a forward step ln the progress of secondary school education. Early in the school year, a group of our boys banded together with the purpose of forming such a club which would glve then an opportunity of expansion beyond the llmlts of the regular classroom routine. In October, an organisation meeting was held and the follow- lng officers were elected, President, Gilbert Alolslog Vice Presl- dent. Donald Brnnlngg Secretary, Louis Danslp Treasurer, Gordon Thompson. lr. A. Regan acts as sponsor of the Club but the boys run lt themselves. There ls no supervlslon ln the sense that they must cr -ual not do anything, slnce the members may follow their lncllna- tlcns delvlng into those particular branches which interest them. llaabershlp ln the Club was baeed purely upon interest. PIUNT all upon scholastic standing. RADIIEL CLUB The Radlnel Club is oaapletlng its fourth year and many inter estlng and entertaining meetings have been enjoyed hy all the ner bers. This Club was organised on October lg, 1935 and was founded by a group of students interested ln Electrical and Radlo experlments and was conducted with the following objectives in mlndx I. to cultivate a splrlt of fellowship among its nenbers. 2. to oo-operate in various school activities. 3. to further the interest of students in the field of radlo inventions and electricity. The officers of this Club are elected at the flrst meeting of the year by a lajorlty of members present. The officers elected for the year of 1938-1939 are: William Koehler. President' Clayton Kunsman, Vice President-Secretary. Plans were lald for the vlslts to the following places. 1. Neon Sign Company 2. Radlo Broadcasting statlons 3. Eleotrlc Company and various electrleal equlpnent companies. L. Various places of lntereet pertaining to actlvltles ln the radlo and electrlcel field ln lndustry. Speolal attentlon was focused on the new lnventlons ln radlc and electricity that have been developed and are to be developed ln the future.

SCI-IOCJL LIBRARY Use of library has increased this year. Last year an average of 1214 pupils per day read or studied in the library. The average per day so far this year is lh2. The number of books borrowed for read. ing at hone has remained about the same as last year, slightly over 60 books per day, Part time pupils who attend school on Tuesdays and Thursdays have frequently spent time reading books and magazines in the library. It would be very desirable to have the library open for the use of pupils every day, so that the part time puplle who cone on llondays,Wednesdays, and Fridays would have an opportunity to use it, and so that the libra- ry reaouross would be available whenever needed. The pupils are b9oomlng noticeably more skillful in using the card catalog and findixg for themselves the books they want, doubtless ae a result of the library instruction they receive in their English classes. llost of the users of the library are -to be congratulated for their fine spirit of co-operation ln handling the books and magazines care- fully and returning books promptly. The assistance of pupils has been very valuable ln the library in work such as arranging furniture, cleaning books, mending magazines and preparing new books. Those who have helped most frequently or who have acted as monitors during study periods arox Richard Fischer, Michael Giangreco, Gordon Thompson, Donald Browning, Joseph Hards,Thomas Newman, Richard Regula. llartln Coleman, Joseph Clmnerer.
