T A G and Chess Club stress the scientific process Fresh ideas on ancient subjects was the basis for the organization of the T.A.G. and the Chess Club. The Chess Club, newly formed this year, sponsored an interest in chess, an ancient pastime which is currently popular. Members tried their hand at learning and acquiring new skills in this challenging game. Trigonometry, algebra and geometry students combined together to form the T.A.G. Club. Talks on non-Euclidean geometry, geiger counters and electronic calculators whetted the appetites of Cody's mathematically inclined students. Excursions to the General Motors Building and the University of Michigan and discussions on the use of the slide rule heightened their interest in math. A senior division of the Campfire Girls, the Horizon Club performed many invaluable good deeds for the community. Their devoted work for orphans was but one example of the girls' service. seventy-five

R- BOM- Of the 158 cadets enrolled in Cody's R.O.T.C.5 14 marksmen made up our high ranking rillle team. Placing second in both the Detroit Inter-mural Match and the Fifth Army Match, our sharpshooters portrayed accuracy in aiming for the bullseye and top scores. Preparedness and physical fitness were the achievements produced under the leadership of Sgt. Prolfer and Sgt. Sloan. Every cadet was instructed in maneuvers, marksmanship, and military customs. The high discipline of polished drills sparkled as the Queen Anne Drill Platoon showed their acquired skills at Bandarama. Two student instructors, Edward Yee and Patrick Zimmer- man returned for their seventh semester of R.O.T.C. Both feel that this training has developed leadership and given them val- uable assets for use in later life. Confidence in choosing the branch of the service that they are best suited for is another asset R.O.T.C. training has given them. Preczszoned teamwork was achieved by R.O.T.C. cadets seventy-seven
