Mr. Jerome Udell was the sponsor of this club. Mr. Napoleon LaVoie organized this club several years ago as a group to represent boys in all the gym classes. The club has staged many athletic demonstrations during its exist- ence and has been responsible for many ath- letic activities which are not taken care of, or included, in varsity sports. One of the major events sponsored by this group is the annual “Dad’s Night” get to- gether. At this party boys are permitted to bring their fathers in order that they may get a first hand picture of the gymnasium activ- ities. THE BOOSTERS’ CLUB, sponsored by Mr. Stanley O.

Other speakers were: Mr. Celestine Van Dalen, Carl Britten, Alex- ander Canja, and Hubert Sweet, the former president.
