Do you want to learn one ot the world's oldest games? Go to room 209 and try a game of chess. You will see the wrinkled brows and bent heads of the engrossed participants in this intriguing mental pastime. Deep silence reigns over the room. The first we heard of this interesting club was in l929. The group was or- ganized to develop powers of concentration and to further the art of chess play- ing. A written test is one of the requirements for entrance. The members of the club have the privilege of playing the game any day after sixth period in room 209. The club holds tournaments once a semester for its own members. Mem- bers also enter into competition with other Minneapolis and St. Paul high schools. The last few years the tournaments between the twin city high schools have been topped off with a dinner in the evening. The club is slightly smaller this year because it is no longer combined with the Checker Club. The officers are: president, Anthony Sletnery secretary, lane Stotferp treasurer, Robert Putz. The adviser of the club is Mr. Robert Brockman. Page 62 1

Do you think you could snap the string and hit the bull's eye? Ioin the Archery Club! The Archery Club is one of Central's newest organizations. lt was started in 1933 by Mr. Albert Schwabe, the present adviser, under Whose management the club has been very active. The only requirements for membership are an interest in archery combined with an ability to shoot a bow and arrow and a desire to improve one's skill. The club is also interested in encouraging beginners who show some ability. Try outs are held each fall and in February, and new members are selected by the old members, who vote on those having the highest scores. The meetings are held every other Thursday, and members are allowed to shoot on Tuesdays and Thursdays on the balcony of the lunch room. If the weather permits, they make use of the outdoor range north of the school. The club elects their officers once a year. This year the officers are: pres- ident, Walter Hanson: vice-president, lack Mitchell: secretary, lane Sorenson: treasurer, Lorrayne Rice: custodian, Arthur Schwabe: and assistant custodian, Lorraine Beltmann.
