Fine arts inspire clubs Concert, play, and symphony are three words which constitute the basis of Conplayphony, one of Seaholm's most distinguished clubs. A sincere interest in the fine arts is compulsory for membership in this club. Con- playphony stresses the appreciation of the arts from an educational standpoint. Among the performances at- tended were Porgy and Bess, Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo, and the Detroit Symphony. Reams of paper and an assortment of dull pencils are the waste products of Scribblers' creative writings. In an attempt to improve individual writing style and technique, Scribblers Club welcomes criticism from its members as well as from their advisers, Miss Heystek and Mrs. Blunt. Making that all important call for tickets to Porgy and Bess is Carolyn LeVan with Donna Schwab, Patty Mason, and Kathy Hine ready to give directions and jot down notes. P Learning to skim a book under Miss Heystek's direction are Peg Lourie, Mike Morden, Mary McCarthy, Bill Race, Kaye Clohset, Barb Oyen. Joe McPhee, Miss Heystek, Donn Gore, Meta Reynolds, Carolyn Rosenberger, Carol King, Katy Weinrich, Jim Bryan, Chuck Darling, Carol Suydam, jane Thompson, and Margo Grahn. Y ---.,9.,,,

We have fun outdoors Go jump in the lake! This expression is a welcome invitation to any mem- ber of Birmingham Interlake Divers. In zero degree weather these swimmers can be found exploring the bottom of our carefully heated pool while patiently awaiting summer. Underwater safety is the first factor stressed by the Club's competent instructors, Mr. Schultz and Mr. Lather. Just as important as this is the proper use and management of diving equipment. When confidence is assured and the divers are ready to accept the respon- sibilities of the sport, perfection of diving techniques is the main concern of Interlake Divers. Out-of-doors recreation proves healthful and stim- ulating, Camping and Trip Club has found. After sub- mitting its constitution to the senate for approval, the club became recognized as a full-fledged organization in our school. Learning the skills of camping is one of the biggest undertakings of the club. The proper use and manage- ment of camping equipment was achieved by each of the members. On the club's agenda for the year were many care- fully planned camping trips. Bicycling and canoeing in the Spring and Fall made many muscles sore at the weekend's close. AAfter Mr. Schultz has lectured on a method of Water safety, the Interlake Divers are about ready to make an at- tempt. Treading water and hanging on to the edge of the pool are Cliff Newcomer, Don Daniels, Bill Rosemont, Bill Hey- don, Tim Kling, John Piggott, Mike Williams, Dave Schmoyer, Janet Strong, Gary Kolode. Jim Dunn, Ted McClew, Jon Stitle, Dan Wright, Jerry Mason, Bob Symes. Bill Scott. Warren Reading, Paul Kol-tones, Jim Emmett, Wendy Paddi- son, and Sandy Seyfried. 4Ready to take off for one of Camping and Trip's weekend trips, Chris Greenwood consults with Sharon Woodburn about which road should be followed on their map. Standing by with helpful suggestions is Marty Hopwood with Marcy Bullock, Sue Adair, and Terry McCurry waiting patiently.
