All Girls’ League The All Girls’ League of the Hartsville High School was organized in October. 1931. with the following objects in view: to create a feeling of unity among the girls: to develop each girl as a whole girl ': to create a desire for higher ideals in scholarship and conduct in the individual girl and in the group as a whole: to promote a feeling of friendliness among the girls; to help each girl discover a vocation in which she may become interested and for which she may begin to prepare herself: to develop a sense of responsibility on the part of each girl in the care of the school building, grounds, and equipment: to practice school citizenship in such a way as to make the members of the All Girls' League worthy citizens of any community. The membership of the All Girls’ League is made up of all the girls in the high school and its government is vested in an Executive Council composed of the officers of the League, heads of departments, home room representatives, home room teachers, and the Dean of Girls. The following students served as officers of the All Girls' League during 1932-1933: Gladys Hungerpiller President Katie May Coker Vice-President Carter McKinnon Secretary Flora Coker ..............Treasurer All Boys’ League The All Boys' League is still in an embryonic stage. Its development will come with the passing of more time. The purpose of the organization is to give its members, all the boys in the high school, the opportunity of assuming responsibilities peculiar to the problems of boys in the school. Meetings restricted to the boys and the men of the faculty are held from time to time as there is need for them. The officers of the League conduct the meetings without active support from the faculty. It is hoped that as time passes and the boys are exercised more and more in the conduct of their business they will learn more and more to assume and discharge the duties of citizenship in the school, which should be a prototype of citizenship in actual world affairs in later life.

Carrollum Forum OFFICERS Katie Coker President Carter McKinnon Mary Reynolds May Powell Secretary T reasurer Vice-President One of the outstanding clubs at the Hartsville High School is the Carrollum Forum. It was organized for the purpose of creating interest and enthusiasm for the study of Latin, and to instill into the students of the school, as well as to the entire community, the real worth and value of this language. The personnel of this club are pupils of the third and fourth year classes, and a few of the second year pupils who make a required average. The club has several objectives. It promotes a Latin week each year, during which time the Roman Banquet is a predominating affair. The members of the Carrollum Forum, faculty of the high school, and other invited guests, assembled in true Roman style on May 26, 1932, for their annual banquet. Upon arrival, the guests were shown to their places by Roman slaves. Appearing on this interesting program were: Robert Goodson, George I immons and the President. Katie McKinnon. Between the courses, talks were made by Mr. R. W. Durrett of Coker College, and Mr. J. H. Thorn well, superintendent. Miss Mary Taylor of Coker College, gave an illustrated lecture on Roman Life.” and at the conclusion of the banquet boys of the ninth and tenth grades presented a play in Latin. “Ludus.” Mr. Hungerpiller, principal, was introduced, and he presented to Belle Glover Thornwell the Vergil Medal, which is given each year to the member of the Vergil class who makes the highest average. During the evening, music was furnished by Misses Mary Lee, Ellen Charles and Sara Burris. Then came a call for sandals, which is a signal for departure. For the past few years the club has sponsored a lecture at Coker College, given by Dr. R. V. D. Magoffin. President of the American Classical League, President of the Archeological Institute, and head of Classics at New York University. Invited guests have consisted of Latin students from Sumter. Florence. Darlington. Cheraw and Bennettsville. On the night of April 10. 1933. Dr. Magoffin gave an illustrated lecture on Recent Archeological Discoveries.” After the lecture, a reception was given by our club and the Classical Club of Coker College. These members look forward with much pleasure to Dr. Magoffin's visits each year and hope to have the honor of sponsoring many more affairs of this kind. This club was named in honor of our beloved Latin teacher. Miss Ruth Carroll. Mary Reynolds. Secretary. Page Thirty
