extra-curricular Activities Complete Balanced Day at C.P.H.S. Clubs, clubs, clubs. Students can’t turn around without a club or other activity pop¬ ping up to claim some after school time. Extra-curricular—or co-curricular—activi¬ ties add spice to the diet of C.P.H.S. students. With a broad range of clubs and societies to join (more than 30), the Crown Point stu¬ dent has no trouble choosing those which will interest him. There are service clubs, ath¬ letic clubs, vocational clubs, clubs for hob¬ bies, honorary clubs, and many more—all of which exist in the school program to give students maximum opportunities in learning to live and work with others. Two prime examples of clubs which tie in directly with curricular studies and yet main¬ tain a relaxed atmosphere are the Latin Club and Modern Languages Club, both of which work to uncover more information about their respective areas. Since so much of the Latin Club’s efforts constitute a direct part of the daily class lessons, the club is permitted to hold its actual meetings during school hours. Speech and Debate Club, another co-curri¬ cular undertaking, was reorganized this year with the orators and debators traveling to speech and debate meets to gain experience and also sponsoring the freshman-sophomore speech meet and legislative assembly at Crown Point. Two other co-curricular organizations re¬ organized this year after a period of time away from the club scene. Art students joined the ranks of the Art Club while home economics girls quickly began taking part in the Future Homemakers of America club. Teaching the duties of citizenship from both the average citizen’s point of view and the responsibilities of the leader’s position plus carrying on the business of the student body is the major job of the student-elected Stu¬ dent Council. Representatives from each class are elected in September, but officers are elected at the close of the preceding school year in a mass sign-plastered, horn-honking, speech-making all-school rally and election (with voting machines, yet!). In the past three years the most important accomplish¬ ments of the Council have been the furnish¬ ing and operating of the student rec room and the promotion of a student-run safe driving program. When it comes to numbers, several organiza¬ tions vie for honors. The music department, with its band and choirs and small ensembles, is among the largest — co-curricular to the point that some chorus groups and the band meet during school time and give some aca¬ demic credit. Still other large-in-membership groups include the Booster Club, which en¬ deavors to raise the level of school spirit during the entire year for all activities, the Sunshine Society, which gives about 265 girls a chance to serve others, the Lettermen’s Club, which promotes the school’s sports pro¬ gram, and the Girls Athletic Association, whose carnival this year featured about 180 girl athletes. Though the school has no direct influence on the student’s outside-of-school job, this is an important factor in what is done with extra-curricular time. A high percentage of the student body is employed in some kind of outside job, ranging from office work to assisting in a lumber yard to baby sitting or working in a grocery store. Extra-curricular activities are of incalculable value in the lives of Crown Point’s students. From these activities come the well-rounded outlook, the leadership abilities, the enjoy¬ ment necessary to the training of a worth¬ while citizen of the future. Paue twenty-five
