Mathematics Club Ten years ago, some far-sighted, mathematically inclined member of Fort Wayne High conceived and put into execution the idea of organizing the Math. Club. Thus, since Father Time has ten times hewn down his harvest of years, we find the Math Club victoriously progressing so that the tenth year of its existence has ended more successfully than any of its already successful prede- cessors. Nearly a half-hundred youthful mathematicians, piloted by such live- Wire executives as Herbert Heine and Frederick Pfeiffer, comprised the ardent membership of the club. The programs were planned so as to put into practice the outstanding purpose of the club, which is to present to mathematics students those phases of the science which cannot be demonstrated in the class room. Discussions by the faculty on various subjects pertaining to mathematics, biographical sketches of renowned mathematicians as well as wrinkles and short-cuts made up the programs. Regardless of the fact that all these programs were educational, the evening entertainments were always so well planned that the contests and games detracted from the profoundness of thought necessitated by the programs. The annual picnic formed a fitting climax for the entertainments of the year. The refreshments were always plentiful and palatable. ln fact, the Math Club is famous for its eats. From a mathematical standpoint, the Math Club subtracts from our sor- rows, divides responsibility, adds to our knowledge, aand multiplies our oppor- tunities to get acquainted with the faculty and to form now friendships. 4 Miss Smart: Have you ever been through algebra? Yes: but it was in the night, and I didn't see much of the place. Mr. Reising: What is a ten sided figure? H. Roe: A dead parrot. Mr. Reising: A what? H. Roe: I mean a poly-gone. Breathes there a senior With a soul so dead Who never to himself hath said: Lessons be hanged- I'm going to bed. -Ex. Math may be excellent mind training, but a better way to improve your memory is to try and call everyone by name as you go clown the hall. Page One Hundred One
