Some of the subjects discussed at the Saturday meetings were Nationalism Below the Sa- hara, The World Refugee Year, India ' s Policy of Non-alignment, The Cuban Revo- lution, and United Nations ' Technical Assistance.

GERMAN CLUB The German Club, a newly organized activity, was sponsored by Mr. Schneider. Meetings were usually held on the first and third Thursday of each month. Functions of the club included watching German films, performing skits, discussing German culture, and listening to records. Understanding German and conversation were fostered by visits of German speakers, by games, and by trips to German movie theaters. On special occasions refresh- ments added to the enjoyment of the meeting. The Business Ciub of Harriton High School, under the co-sponsorshIp of Miss Beatrice Easter and Miss Marea Taylor, continued In its second year of existence to acquaint the business students with good office practices and methods. In order to become a member, one was required to take at least one business subject. The club met once a month for activities such as listening to guest speakers, and discussing business pro- cedure. The group also watched a skit staged by the Bell Telephone Company, and held a spring picnic at Valley Forge Park. At Christmas time the club spon- sored a needy family, to which was donated food and gifts. This project was found to be very successful and worth- while. Through experiences such as these the Business Club was able to give its members a glimpse of the situations with which one is confronted in the business world of today. FIRST ROW: R. Spady.
