Diversified Occupations C. Wallace Bourne Supervisor Two D. O. students, Paul Brooks and C. B. Rowlette, attended the state convention in Wilmington, April 28- 29. These students were outstanding in deciding on the state D. 0. pin and were the first to suggest it. Throughout the year the class has operated as a club. Early in the current year they elected officers: Billy Gulley, president; Bernice Jenkins, vice-president; and Mary Sue Moore, secretary-treasurer. Going into its second year of existence in G. H. S., Diversified Occupations, under the supervision of C. Wal- lace Bourne, made several outstanding achievements throughout the past school year. Composed of fourteen seniors and six juniors, the class put over one of the best dances of the year on Valentine night. Besides the dance, they held their annual student-employer banquet early in May. This proved to be one of the most important school events of the year.

French Club Undei- the supervision of Miss Imo- o-enc ' Riddick, faculty adviser, the French club has had a most success- ful year. The big feature, as always, of the French club was a French play, “Medecin Malgre Lui.” “I he most outstanding work of this year’s club was the giving of a real Moliere play, which is the nicest play ever given by the French club. Moli- ere’s plays are usually produced by professional actors,” states Miss Riddick. Presiding over the Tuesday morn- ning meetings have been Herbert Lee, president, and Doris Broadhurst secretary. The meetings have been both entertaining and educational. An annual event of the club is a picnic in the spring. • • • • • • • • Radio Club Under the leadership of Heber Adams, the Radio club has proved to be one of the most active and bene- ficial clubs in Greenville high school. Among the activities of the club during the year was the assembly program explaining how radio ama- teurs operate. The building of a seventy-five watt phone transmitter was also explained. The present membership of the radio club includes seven students. Binice Mayo is vice-president; Carl Corey, secretary; James Mayo, treas- urer; and Mr. E. R. Robinson, adviser.

Camera Club The Camera club, which is the youngest organization in Greenville high school, has made rapid progress since it received its charter in Jan- uary. Credit is due Billy Gulley, presi- dent, for the existence of the club. ITnder his instructions, the Camera club studied many phases of phono- graphy. This group, although young, should prove to be one of the main organizations in the high school. Red Cross Under the supervision of Miss Margaret Zinn, the Red Cross club was organized in the fall of 1940. The club now has thirty members. Officers are Audrey Lum, president, and Queenie McGowan, secretary- treasurer. The club was organized last fall when several students and Miss Zinn evinced interest in doing Red Cross woi’k. In addition to other activities, the members have pi’epared fifteen knitted garments; several are still under construction.
