GLEE CLUB The Glee Club, first organized in 1913, had a membership of thirteen girls, who met every other week after school. This year the Glee Club has a member- ship of sixty-three and meets at least three times a week for a period of twenty minutes during school. The members also have the good fortune to receive school credit for their work. At a meeting earlv in September, Kellie Lee Kittell was elected president: Margaret Adsit, vice-president; Burton Frawley, secretary; and Frances Farley, treasurer. The Glee Club, which is under the direction of Miss Elizabeth M. Roth, pre- pared a cantata for the Christmas exercises of the school and took part in several assembly programs. It also took part in the annual High School Minstrels. The Special Chorus, made up of about twenty-four members selected from the Glee Club, sang numbers for the Junior and Senior Prize Speaking and for the County Prize Speaking for Girls. The present Glee Club, which has just completed a successful year, sincerely hopes that all future Glee Clubs will enjoy as many good things as it has and that they will become larger and more renowned as the years go by. —Helen McManus.

Therefore, the Journalism Club likes to vary its work program by a bit of social activity now and then. Its big social event this year was a dance held in the Town 11 all last fall. Elizabeth McQuAin. ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Athletic. Association is the most important student organization in school. It is through this organization funds arc collected to maintain the expenses of the various sports. The Association sponsors all sports recognized by the County League and gives aid to several not sponsored by the league. As its governing body the Association elects students to a council. The Seniors were represented the first semester by Victor Milkowski and John Movvins. The Juniors elected Burton Frawley and Dominic Bochino. The Freshmen and Sophomores elected Reeder and Hudson, respectively. In the second semester Percy Green and Paul Bohdanuff spoke for the Seniors, while the Juniors elected Martha Mercer and Clifford Grego. Hudson and Cole represented the Sopho- mores and Freshmen. The high light of the Association’s social activities each year is its Athletic Banquet held for the purpose of honoring the students who receive block letters. This year it was held at the Seneca Hotel, the toastmaster being D. Charles O’Brien, while the honorary speaker of the evening was Roy Simmons. After the banquet we went up to the gymnasium and enjoyed dancing to the pleasing music of “Postal’s Silver Moons”. A good time was had by all. —Percy Green.
