A. A. BOARD TMIE Athletic Association Board was formed to award those participating in varsity sports letters when they have earned them. This is decided by the various members of the Board who are elected to the position by the entire student body. The A. A. Board is composed of a president, vice-president and secretary and the captains and managers of the various teams. Meetings are held only after a sport season is ended and there the Board decides who is deserving of a letter, after discussing the player ' s record as to the number of games he participated in, etc. The retiring officers are President Males and Secretary Grosskopf. HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY T HROIGHOLT the past year, the Horticultural Society has presented some - - of the most outstanding speakers ever to come to Farm School. Under the leadership of Edward Grosskopf, President; Herman Wilensky, ice-President; ?nd Kurt Xathan. Secretary-Treasurer; and Mr. Purmell, who is responsible for getting most of the speakers, the Society has become one of the outstanding organizations in the School. Mr. George Carver, of the Andre Greenhouses, and one of the foremost authorities on roses in this vicinity, spoke to the Society on rose production. As a second speaker Mr. Morrison, of the Calco Rainmaker Company, gave an excellent demonstration on irrigation. Franklin D. Jones, of the Ambler Chemical Company, related the connection between hormones and fruit production. Other talks were given by Mr. Bishop, the noted authority on strawberry production, who presented the newest ideas in strawberry growing; Mr. Schmieder who honored the Society with a very practical discussion on ' ' Beekeeping in Relation to Horticulture ; the well-remembered Dr. From who offered a fine talk with moving pictures on the subject of ' ' The Evolution of Animals. ' Some of the noted Farm School graduates who the Society presented are: Carl Schiff, of the Brooklyn Department of Parks, who discussed the opportunities in landscaping; and Bing and Hoguet, of the Campbell Soup Company, who spoke on tomato growing. In the early part of the season, a majority of the members attended the Philadelphia Flower Show. From time to time, seniors representing the plant departments in the School, told the members of the progress being made in their respective departments. New ideas, new theories, and new facts in the plant world were offered to all the students of the School in 1940 under the auspices of the Society. Students who participated gained in every respect; hence, we consider the past year successful.
