El EL CIRCULO ESPANOL El Circulo Espanol was organized for the pur- pose of creating friendship among the students who are taking Spanish. l After school, the first and third Tuesdays of each month, this group meets and, talks the situation over. The thirty students who constitute the enrollment of this semester elected their oliicers as follows: president, Marjory Heggeng secretary, Iuanita Hawk, treasurer, Billy Bergstrom. Miss Balliet, faculty adviser, directs the club- sters in their adventures which intermix with the study of a conglomeration of well-meaning' syl- lables. As an extra-curricular activity, this club should surely prove of interest to any student. 1 4 EUCLIDEAN The Euclidean club this semester has had for its purpose the extensive study and comparison of the French method of measurement, the metric system, with the English method of measurement. The work of ancient mathematicians was dis- cussed. The annual picnic of the Euclidean club was held in the early part of May at Grandview Park, and this picnic was considered by most of the members as the main event of the semester, so it can be seen that these mathematics sharks are just human after all. The officers of the club for this semester are Leo Pierick, presidentg Rhea Dis- ney, vice president, Iune Mushkin, secretaryg Ioan Vuper, treasurer. El EUCLIDEAN Firsl row: M. Crabb, V.

FORENSIC The Forensic club of this semester represents a line selection of boys. Fifteen students, who were eligible, passed the try-outs and were elected to the club this semester, bringing the total membership up to thirty-five, the limit. Oliicers of the club are as follows: President, Billy Lindquistg vice presi- dent, Roland Smithg treasurer, Lyman Long. The Forensic is beneficial to its members because it improves their speaking ability and creates a stronger bond of friendship among them. The business of this gathering of boys is to study and discuss current events. Mr. Wilson, who is adviser, expresses his sincere regrets at losing the senior members of the club.

At one of their meetings which are always interesting and versatile, they sponsored a Spring Style Show. The entire school was in- vited. Their other meetings have been equally de- lightful. The subject varies, of course, but it is generally on some phase of Home Economics. The members under the direction of Miss May and Miss Wetzstein entertain at a tea once a semester. These teas are charming social functions. The ollicers are La Verne Latta, president, Mary Ray- mond, vice president and program chairman, Gretchen Sandahl, secretaryg and Velma McGowan, treasurer.

A Brook By Clarence Sandelin The crzrefree rush of happy days, Romping tbrouglz the woods and o'er the plains W but tz'est1'ny leads the curving way To the z1'eep's edge, its stueet lll!l.72kZl.71g train? In sheltered eaves it zuends in weary winds Of cure and strife and petty trinisj On towards the tempest ridden brine, Life's dull rote and illztsizfe zuiles. So are our lives in reality, In all its ways so manifold, Ufitb hidden snags of fut1'l1'ty-5 To the tizzlqling broolq compartzble. But breast the open waves of life And face tbe future with a smile.
