R in lQz,4,,i,mf The Hi-Y was organized in 1923 by Mr. Forney from a group of teacher recommended students. Among these were Henry Funk, Roy Teutsch, Paul Mutzfeld, Huber Knisely. The initiations were rather rigorous at first. Later they eased up. Membership was then limited to the upper two classes and sophomores with high scholastic standing. In the fall of the same year the Blue Tri- angle Club was organized by the Misses Laura McBrien and Flossie Travis. This club has been known as the Blue Triangle, the Girl Reserves, until 1947 when under the sponsor- ship of Miss Allman it became the Tri-Hi-Y under the guidance of the Y. M. C. A. which also guides the Hi-Y. iii. w. The Hi-Y is an organization for high school boys which strives to promote Christian fel- lowship and Christ's way of living, The Y. M. C. A., well known Christian organization sponsors the Hi-Y. Membership in the club is sure to make a great impression on one's outlook towards life which marks a better so- ciety for the future. The ideals of the Hi-Y clubs are clearly portrayed by their purpose and platform mentioned in the article din Retrospect. Membership is open to all boys in the upper three years of high school, although sophomores must maintain a C average. There are several steps one must go through before he can become a part of this club. After applying for membership an application must be filled out and signed by the parents. A vote is then taken on each new candidate. If he is approved by the other members, he is initiated into the club. This year the Hi-Y met on the first Monday of each month. Everyone looked forward to these meetings with much enthusiasm because an interesting speaker was always part of the program. Our sponsor, Mr. Ashby, regularly furnished a lesson relating to the Book or a story of the Bible, which greatly increased our knowledge and understanding of the Scrip- tures. On some of the occasions of this year the Hi-Y joined with the Tri-Hi-Y. Some of these were the Christmas program, a Christmas party which included caroling and a program for the P. T. O. At this meeting the two clubs pre- sented an opening ritual and other interesting facts about the clubs--history, qualifications for membership and club projects. The chief project this year was the distribu- tion of programs at the home basketball games. The programs, furnished by Coca-Cola and financed by advertisements gained a consider- able for the treasury. 510.00 were donated to the board at Indianapolis towards the purchase of a portable organ. The last feature of the year is a joint picnic and meeting at Pokagon Park the last Monday of the school year. The officers this year are-Wayne Heffley, Pres., Jack Maxton, V. Pres., Jerry Beebe, Sec'y., Max Little, Treasurer, Don lmler, Chap- lain. 1.13,
