Hillsboro High School - Hilhi Yearbook (Hillsboro, OR)

Hi-Y A service organization that started 25 years ago and is still going strong is the Hi-Y. (Meaning? Have to join to find out.) Every year it sponsors Tag Day and this year was not an exception. Tags, and more tags changed hands, in hopes that your tag would have the most signatures on it. The two lucky winners were awarded copies of this wonderful volume of the Hilhi. Had to get a plug in. Like most good clubs it too has a good purpose, that being to maintain and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. Registration day the Hi-Y boys were on hand to show the green frosh where to find their lockers, and above all, how to work them after they did find them. Never get anywhere if the blind leads the blind. The pin they wear is in the shape of a triangle sim- ilar to the Y-Teens pin. Suppose there is any connec- tion?

If it’s information you want or a job to be done just call on Miss Weatherred’s Y-Teens. Do believe they are the most activating club in existence in old Hilhi. At Christmas time they put on a vesper program that stuck in the memories of all. They also had a win- ter formal “White Christmas.” All those attending had a marvelous time dancing to such good music. They also went into Portland and did some caroling. Not only do they have social affairs but they do hard work, too. Every teachers’ meeting will find sev- eral of them staying after school and making coffee to serve. Have to keep the teachrs going. This is clean- up year in the G.R. rcom. New blankets and pictures help to cheer up the place, not that it didn’t need it. Can’t cheer the sick if the blinds are drawn.

lj eee ITE RNETRETE “When in Rome do as the Romans do.” So goes the initiation of the neophytes. All day they romped the halls in their togas (sheets to us) and fell to their knees in adoration at the sight of an old member or an officer. Won- der what would have happened if they hadn’t bowed to them? The annual banquet is a feast for all. The dishes of delicacy are all concocted from the menus of the Roman women. Come one and all you Latin students and join in on the merryment it only takes a course in Latin to have fun. Their pocket money is earned by having a concession at one of the games. Wonder what these clubs would do if the American public wasn’t always eating. Not hungry, no food; no food, no money; no money, no fun.
