THE GLEAM 7 Alumni Association Organization of the Alumni Association Last year Mr. Pizitz offered to each of the three high schools a prize of one hundred dollars to be awarded to the group of students making the greatest progress in citizenship. Our committee decided to limit the contest to the Literary Societies, the awards to be based on the following points: “prospectus; development within the society; initiation of movements for the advancement of the school.” Until June, 1925, there had been no organization of the Alumni of the Ensley High School. The Shakespearean Literary Society promoted as its contribution to the initiation of movements for the advancement of the school the organization of an Alumni Association. The following officers were elected: President...............................Helen Albert Vice-President.........................Selwyn Smith Secretary-Treasurer....................Clara Warren Only the beginnings have been made. We are looking forward to an active and enthusiastic body of Alumni. -----------o---------- Greetings From the Alumni Greetings from the Alumni! From Michigan, Virginia, Kentucky, all parts of Alabama, in fact from all over the United States, messages of love and greetings come from the Alumni to their beloved Alma Mater, Ensley High School. Although our Alumni Association is quite young we hope to make it one of the most effective and most helpful organizations in furthering the better interests of the school. We are watching all the activities at Ensley High with keen interest. We are interested in everything that Ensley High School is doing. We are backing you! We want to do everything in our power to help you. Although many of us are in the college and business world now, still our thoughts are not centered there entirely for in our hearts remain a great big space filled to overflowing with love for dear old Ensley High. HELEN ALBERT, President.
