Basketball, volley'ball and baseball are our spe- cialties. Competition is keen especially when a t0ur- nament is in progress. We sponsor candy sales throughout the year to pay for ,our letters awarded at the end of the year. Along with our athletics, we have enjoyed a combined hike and beach-roast and a sleigh-ride in January. We claim for our club the benefits of clean sports- manship, friendship, loyalty and co-operation, and the advantage ,of social contacts outside of the classroom.

Home Economics Club In 1939 the club was organized for the ninth year which has proved to be a very successful one. We have more members than in any previous year, one- hundred and fifteen. Because of the large number in the club, it was necessary to have two pictures taken. The meetings are held on the second Monday of each month. The main purpose of the club is to create fellowship among its members, and to get the girls interested in Home Economics. The officers are: Ruth Briegel - President Margaret Kieft Vice-President Ruth Kraeger - - Secretary Phyllis Rescorla ----- Treasurer Activities of the Year .. A potluck supper in October marked the first meeting of the club. At our November meeting the new members were initiated. At this meeting, we collected several baskets of food, which were distributed to those in need. In December, we had a Christmas party. We collected baskets of food and toys in order that we might do our share to help everyone have a Merry Christmas. The January meeting, we enjoyed an old-fashioned sleigh-ride. In February some very inter- esting movies of Grand Haven were shown. On March 9, the club sponsored a leap-year dance. The girls asked the boys, called for them, paid their way, did the cutting in while dancing, and even furnished the cars. A good time was had by all, especially the boys. In April a hard times party was held. We concluded our program for the year with a skating party in May.
