The Science Club, under the very capable direction of its President Florence Wiiiapol and Mr. Fish- man, has tried to develop the scien- titic minds of some of the young amateur scientists, here at the annex. It has served its purpose well, and proved a great success. Undoubted- ly these scientists will continue their work under the capable supervision of Mr. Bender in the main building. The basketball team, handled by Mr. Feller of the Health Education Department has played in the in- tergrade tournaments. They lost four games but put up a great fight. These are the tive players of the team: Philip Maricano, Salvatore Diglio, David Marcus, Jack Sher, Herbert Goodman. The Ping Pong Club, aided by Mrs. Sholl, is about the only one that has been set aside for one par- ticular hobby. These pupils are now excelling at the game. Perhaps they will be able to fill out the team Mr. Sullivan is build- ing. President Dorothy Block, aided by Miss Schwartz, has tried to bring the South American influence into the school through the medium of Pan-American Club. The purpose of this club is to instill into the minds of these young students the importance of friendship between the Americas. Soon the main build- ing will be glad to have them take the place of the graduating mem- bers of their Pan-American Club. Mrs. Johnsons dramatic club is one ofthe clubs here at the annex that has accomplished all that they set out to do. They published a paper entitled Annex Variety and now is busily engaged in producing a play. Ruth Wfolinsky is president. The Garden Club, with Mrs. Trea- nor assisting, has produced a beau- tiful garden at the entrance to the annex. They hope they have added some beauty to the Annex.

cports Arena of Eczszfemtown . . . BASKETBALL-At last Eastern has made its mark! As far as basket- ball is concerned, this season has been one for the books. The spectacular leadership of Pop Wagman, the lightning speed of Bill Halroyd, the set shot precision of Meyer Fogler, and the excellent cooperation rendered by the remainder of the team made basketball enthusiasts of New York's high schools sit up and take note. Our boys dashed through Hamilton 51-28, Boys High 49-24, jefferson 47-46, were stopped by Brooklyn Tech 37-28, jefferson 51-37, Boys High 40-35, and then came back to defeat Hamilton 52-30 and end the season by murdering Brooklyn Tech 50-32! For his capability on the court, Captain Wagman received The White Sweater Award. Not to be outdone, Bill Halroyd received All Scholastic Honorable Mention.

At the completion of four gruelling periods of sizzling set shots, feints, pivots and lay ups, the contest ran into an overtime. Here was where Eastern's buxom basketeers were put to the test. The ball was passing dizzily from hand to hand, from team to team. Suddenly, Wagman jumped high, intercepted a Jefferson pass, thrust the ball to Halroyd, who faltered for one split second, aimed, and sent the ball spurting towards the
