20 THE EXPONENT WITH THE CLUBS The Science Club brought a suc¬ cessful year to a close with the final meeting on May 26. Many new members were voted into the or¬ ganization and many and varied were the experiments performed. Through the efforts of the Club two moving pictures dealing with sub¬ jects of interest to the members have been presented in the audito¬ rium. All in all, it has been an ex¬ ceedingly interesting year for the members. The Masquers, G. H. S.’s dramatic society, also have enjoyed a success¬ ful and interesting season. The main event on their calendar took place when a short play was pre¬ sented in conjunction with movies, for the purpose of replenishing the S. A. S. treasury. The cast acquit¬ ted itself with honor. The enterprising Spanish Club, but newly organized, under the leader¬ ship of Miss Chapin and Miss Cur¬ tis has been making great gains in arousing interest among the Span¬ ish students. It is regretted, how¬ ever, that no males have seen fit to become members. During the past year meetings were held bi-monthly and at these Spanish games were played, refreshments were served in the Spanish manner, and a general atmosphere of the Sunny Peninsula prevailed. The Commercial Club held its last meeting for the school year on May 19. The following officers were elected for the coming year: President, Francis Martin. Vice-president, Mary Barry. Secretary, Nellie Pulaski. Mr. King, accountant for E. Weiss- brod Son, spoke to the club on “What the Business Man Expects of a High School Graduate.” Following Mr. King’s talk, the members of the Club gave a fare¬ well party to Miss Moore who, much to our regret, leaves G. H. S. at the end of the school year to take a po¬ sition in the Malden, Mass., high school. The programs during the year have included a number of plays given by the Club members, and talks by local business men. The Club has been well support¬ ed by the Commercial pupils and has increased considerably in member¬ ship during the year. G. M., ’27. WHO’S WHO IN »20 Most Popular Boy, Chester Osgood.
