The objectives of this fraternity are: to promote brotherhood, to benefit the school, to promote high scho- lastic standings among its members, and to give its members social advantages. These objectives have been succesfully carried out for 34 years and the present members intend to continue in the same manner. The oiiicers this year were: President, Paul Patten: Vice-President, Charles Clarkg Secretary- Treasurer, Francis Stone. The main social events of this year were as follows: a well-attended dance, a picnic to be proud of, an entry in the school circus parade, and the annual spring banquet. We were well represented in the school activities this year. Last fall on the grid- iron, there were sixteen men' to receive the block C. and ten of those were members of this fraternity. On the basketball court, there were six letter-men, five of whom were O. A. P.'s. This spring on tl1e diamond and on the cinder track, we were well repre- sented. Two members of the cast of Drums of Death were chosen from among our ranks. Now at the close of this school year, we who remain after graduation are already looking forward to a coming year of con- tinued success. Charles Clark. My XYZ? Fraternity ' The XYZ? fraternity, since it was organ- ized in 1908, has ranked high in scholastic, athletic, and social endeavor. The oiiicers are: President, Ward Hamilton: Vice- President, Charles Sims: Secretary, Chester Wight, Treasurer, Donald MacFadden. Initiation was held in May, and seven new members were admitted to the fraternity, bringing the total number of members up to twenty-one. The social events of the year were a banquet and a picnic. The class of 1938 feels that it has kept the fraternity's honor high and that it has done its best to promote good fellowship. My - Pi Pi chi Early in February, 1938, a group of stu- dents organized a new fraternity, the Pi Pi Chi. Its object is to provide another active organization among the boys and to take an interested part in all school events. A democratic constitution was drawn up, and a new progressive executive govern- mental body was installed. The senior ofiicer is Donald Nashg junior ofiicer, Harold Stilesg and sophomore officer, Allan Nash. The underclass officers advance each year, and a new sophomore officer is elec- ted. The secretary is George Dawley and the treasurer, Paul Hull. The number of members shall not at any time exceed fif- teen. This selective group will be well worth watching in years to come. Donald Nash.

The Algonquin Canton High School i 6 Photoplay Club Our purpose is to learn through the use of visual aids, to study the telling of stories in pictures, and to guide students toward a fuller appreciation of the motion-picture art. We study motion-picture mechanics, the stage play versus the motion picture, the literary classic versus the motion pic- ture, and the elements of cinema apprecia- tion. This club is a recent addition to the ever- increasing program of extra-curricular acti- vity. lt is under the guidance of Mrs. Brid- get Cunningham, whose interest and ability insure its success. Oiiicers were: President, Eloise Hutchinsg Vice-Presi' dent. Ledyard Hale: Secretary, Robert Hosmerg Treasurer, Reuette Mc-Masters. Eloise Hutchins. The Fix-It Club The outstanding success of the year was a spaghetti supper. Fourteen new members were initiated into the club. The oiiicers this year were: President, Orpha Gilletteg Vice-President, Beulah Crossmang Secre- tary-Treasurer, Marion Peters: Assistant Secretary-Treasurer, Edra Morrow: Club Adviser, Miss Marguerite Sanford. The club sponsored several outdoor cook- ing meets before the close of school. Everyone feels that this club will be a great help to all girls interested in Home Economics. There are many enthusiastic supporters of the club: and under the able direction of Miss Sanford, the Club has im- proved greatly during the past year. Marion Peters.
