Hl-Y Twenty-one boys from the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades were members of Hi-Y. These boys worked together as a service organization through the Y.AA.C.A. As members of Hi-Y, the boys learned to become better citizens both in the spiritual and material realms. Officers of Hi-Y were: Charles Nickel, president; Mike Vogt, vice-president; Bruce Beener, secretary; Paul Althoff, treasurer; Randy Higgins, chaplain; and Mr. Ralph Banes, advisor. Four projects were undertaken by the boys this year. They were in charge of the Christmas Chapel, which is an annual affair at Covington High School. A Christmas basket was prepared and presented to a needy family in this community. As a service to students and parents, the boys sold programs at the basketball games. The big project of the year was their Bundle Day Clothing Drive. Hi-Y boys also competed with the F.F.A. boys in their annual basketball game. For the first time since they have started these games, Hi-Y lost to F.F.A. Aside from this defeat, the Hi-Y members had a very successful year. Officers, Paul Althoff, Randy Higgins, Bruce Beener, Charles Nickel, and Mike Vogt, discuss future plans of the club. In Our Memories . . .
