Dan Smith ALUMET'S Junior Hi-Y, with Mr. Raymond Wallace as its able adviser, has enjoyed the most active program in the history of the club. One of the main factors in the suc- cess of the club this year has been the Hne display of coopera- tion and fellowship exhibited by the sixteen members. The Hi-Y has embodied four leading planks, Clean Living, Sports- manship, Scholarship and Clean Speech. At an older boys, convention held at Aurora in November, 1930, Donald Stoops, Arthur Meyers and James Ragel repre- sented the club. The organization was honored by the presence of three speakers, Mr. Harry Frieda and Dr. Goode of the Calumet faculty, and Mr. Hoffer of the Garrett Bib- lical Institute. On Armistice Day the club toured the Speedway Hospital and presented flowers to the veterans and at Christmas the Club undertook to take care of a few of the needy families. Many were the places of interest visited by the club. Among them were the Broadcasting Stations, XVMAQ, WGN, XVENR, and the Chicago studios of the National Broadcasting Co. and the Columbia System. The banquet held May 2 at the Englewood Y.M.C.A. was the most enjoyable of all the affairs held by the junior Hi-Y. T011 mir: Sewell, D. Smith, B. Smith, Cawley, XVeidner.

. .I -1- - Fencing Team NCE again, under the able supervision of Mr. Burger, assistant principal, the fencing team has completed an- other successful year. The first Calumet fencing team was formed in the old school way back in 1904. The present team is composed of students who take fencing twice a week. The Fencing Club of last year has become the team of this year. Too much cannot be said of the benefit derived from Mr. Burger's experience and training. To him is due the credit- able standi-ng of the fencing team among the school activi- ties. Mr. Burger has great skill as a fencer and also as .1 fencing instructor. He has developed the sport and brought it into the favor it now enjoys at Calumet. A great amount of benefit is gained by the students en- gaged in the sport, for it develops the eye as well as control of the various muscles. Much emphasis must be given also to the coordination of body and brain. Among the stars of the team are Quandee, a veteran of last year, Koske, and Effertz. These men are the mainstays of the team and credit must be given to them for their excellent work during the past year. The prospects for next year are very bright and with Mr. Burger once again at the head of the team, a creditable show- ing is assured.

. up -- 1 , The Forum Robert Emmet Cummings . P1'z'xiz1'n'11f Williani Richard Steinhoff . . . Si'w'ufai 7' 66 IVE me liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to my conscience, above all other liberties. This famous quotation by John Milton is the principle upon which Calumet's Forum bases its existence. At the instigation of William Steinhoff and Robert Cum- mings the Forum was reorganized this semester and was met with hearty approval. Members of all classes were privileged to attend. A plan was followed whereby the Tuesdays of every other week were devoted to general dis- cussion of all topics. One of the objects of the organization was to provide a versatile field of discussion, so that all might be pleased. Rus- sia and the Five-Year Plan, The Future of the Trustsf, The Next XVar are only a few examples of the wide range of questions. The Forum idea is an admirable experiment, for it is through this method that the young people of America come to under- stand thoroughly the workings not only of our government, but also of the governments of foreign nations. Thus the club presents an exceptional opportunity for its members to become intelligent voters. The Forum offers also a wide field for the development of character and individuality. There is no check upon the speakers except the ordinary rules of procedure. William Sivinfaojf Firxf row: Pomeroy, Boughner, Miss Berleman, Cummings, Mrs. Armstrong, Davidson, SteinhoH.
