This year’s Car- nival w'as the biggest ever put on in the history of the Club. Over three hundred dollars w'as spent in prizes, orchestra, etc. To gain membership to the “C” Club, the boys who have w'on their letter in one of the three sports are asked to sign slips, saying that they wish to become members of the Club.
