A-is - UCYRAN - LITERARY CLUB The year 1930 saw the beginning of a new organization for Bucyrus High School: namely, the Literary Club. Early in March the Junior and Senior girls in- terested in such a club organized for the purpose of promoting interest in the var- ious forms of classical and modern literature. At that time officers were elected, a constitution drawn up and adopted, and the name Literary Club chosen for the society. The club began with twenty-one members out of a maximum number of thirty. Alberta Shimmoler was chosen as our president, and very ably led us through a successful year. The other officers were: Edith Winkelfoos, Vice President, and Velma Wert, Secretary. A membership committee was appointed, consisting of Nida Mae Holcomb, chairman, Mildred Talbott, and Mary Caton. Much of our success this year was due to the untiring efforts of our advisors: Mrs. Willaman, and Mr. Havron. Our entertaining programs the second and fourth Monday evening of each month were the result of the work of the various program committees. On March 17, Aileen Philbin, as chairman, presented short stories as the theme for the even- ing. A very interesting and inspiring musical program planned by Barbara Ryan, as chairman, was given us on the evening of March 31. The other meetings enjoyed by all were, April 14, a religious program, by Margaret Kehrer, chairmang April 28, a poetical program sponsored by Thelma Bowen, chairmang May 12 with Evelyn Spaid leading was a discussion of hobbies, and on May 26, our last meeting, a social program arranged by Florence Kiess, chairman, was delightful to all. With the cooperation of our advisors, officers, and members of the club, we hope this will be a growing organization ranked with the other worthwhile activities of B. H. S. -Velma Wert, '31 Page Fifty-nine
