During the fall and spring targets were set up behind the school. Shooting was carried on all winter on the indoor range. Mr. Bailey, the faculty advisor, gives his time and his talents freely to the woodcarvers. Many useful and beautiful articles were made during the year besides the archery equipment. The club had no special offi- cers and was run in a very informal manner. SKI CLUB The Ski Club, one of the oldest and most active clubs in Deering, has completed a most successful year. The activities consisted of view dances, trips to Dyke Farm, and afternoon classes at Stroudwater. Under the guidance of Miss Cowan, and a Board of Directors including: Richard Foster, Robert Jort- berg, Albert Phillips, Patricia Cook, Shirley Russell, Jacqueline Davis, Sally Blanchard, and Maureen Roderick, the club had an enjoyable year.
