May, Page TWenty-SeVen tending throughout the school and community the high standards of Christian character. Our platform is: clean livingnclean speech, clean athletics, and clean scholarship. During the term we were honored at various meetings with talks from outside speakers in- cluding Mr. Herbolsheimer and Mr. Hengst, the district Hi-Y Secretary, whose most wel- come talks were appreciated by-the freshmen boys who were our guests at several meetings as well as by the club members. One of the big events in our year was a swim at the Erie Y. M. C. A. building to which all Hi-Y members were invited. To pro- vide for club expenses we sponsored a bake sale early in the term which proved a financial success. The officers for this last year were: Jack Holland, President: Robert Barron. Vice- President: Lee Pratt. Treasurer, John Ropach, Secretary. Gerald Moore was our faculty ad- visor. We are all agreed that the club has been a source of enjoyment for every member. CHEMISTRY CLUB The Chemistry Club was organized at the beginning of this year with Catherine William- son as President. And we are closing the year with many accomplishments to our credit. These benefit and interest only those who have taken the subject, because we have carried on technical experiments under Miss Tate's direc- tion. We made qualitative tests and then ap- plied them by analyzing unknowns. We even made guncotton, and tried our luck with two industries-blue printing and bead manufactur- ing. Our only difficulty was that we didn't always have all the time we needed to work in the lab, Club periods seemed very short for all that we wanted to do. THE C. B. A. In September when Mr. Hauck announced our schedule, he said that special clubs were to be held on the third Friday of every month. Per- haps it was Miss King or perhaps it was some- thing else that lured a host of freshmen and sophomores into Room 9. Everyone found a place and sat down. After much discussion about what to do in our new club, we chose a name. It is Le Cercle des Beaux Arts, and it stands for our work. Our club is open to freshmen and sophomores only. The next few meetings we were busy organizing. We de- cided to have five main types of work, and for each one a chairman was elected. These chair- men make up the executive committee. The departments are as follows: WVriting .....................................,.. VVilma Furber Drawing ................... .......... ..... V i rginia Stuntz Crafts .................. ...... B etty Walker Literature ............................................ Phil Baskin Public Speaking ........................ Edward Cohen After organizing thus far, we began work- ing. Our first accomplishment was setting up our constitition. Every organization must have finances. We have no dues in our club: and so we hunted for a way to make money. We under- took selling Christmas cards and with the co- operation of everyone we made enough to take care of our financial difficulties. We bought supplies for our club work, and we bought the lattice work to add to the stage decorations. We have had three parties and have had many other good times. Our club has put on two plays for assembly. A group of our talented members also present- ed short stories, poems, and readings. This program and our plays were coached by our adviser, Miss King. We have donated the post- ers for the operettas and baseball games. Our C. B. A. has grown considerably since the first of the year, and we hope it continues to grow. This year's sophomores must leave and make room for the incoming freshmen. Everyone hates to leave, for we certainly have enjoyed ourselves. THE MATH CLUB We opened the year with an enrollment of seventeen members, but we were surprised to note that there were only three boys among us. Before our next meeting we peered through a transit which Mr. Charles Weislogel demon- strated. The transit had to be lowered for one short member. At our second meeting we be- gan a plan of the school grounds. Under Mr. Hauck's direction we have worked on these plans all through the year, and hope to grad- uate as full-fleged architects. Class Officers The seniors elected Jack Holland, President, Helen Carlson, Vice-President, Owen Grubbs, Secretary, and Ernest Leopold, Treasurer, for 1936-1937. The juniors elected Phil Baskin, President: Alton Skelley, Vice-Presidentg Elizabeth Mul- ler, Secretary, and Doris Pieper, Treasurer. The sophomores elected Marcia Cochran, President, Gladys Baur, Vice-Presidentg Oliver Place, Secretary, and Sylvia Rubin, Treasurer. ORCHESTRA Fairview High's Orchestra meets every Mon- day morning in the Assembly Room. Our Orchestra isn't very large, but it is often said that good things come in small packages. We are hoping that next year's Freshman Class will all be musicians. The Orchestra played for the Literary Contest and for the Eighth Grade Visiting Day. The members of the orchestra are: Drum ........................................ Ellmor Weislogel Bass-horn ..,,....,,...,.....,.....,.. LeRoy von Treptow Piano .................................................. Betha Lewis Clarinet ............................................ Jack Holland Violin ........ Gloria Herbol, Kenneth Osterberg Cornet .....,,................,.... Lloyd Allen, Irwin Fall Guitar ................ Helen Brown, Marcia Cochran Director .,.,. .......................,... M iss Gladys Tate SENIOR SIX On May 7 each report class voted on the Senior Six, and although people protested that they didn't know whom to vote for in some cases, the totals show that in some mysteri- ous way everybody agreed decisively with everybody else. Check your vote with the fol- lowing list, and see whether you picked the winners. Most Pouplar Girl ................ Ellinol' Weislogel Most Popular Boy ...... .........
