SCIENCE CLUB President Vice-President .... Secretary-Treasurer Sponsor . . . . Ethan Owens . Dorothy Vorpahl . . Annette Eagle Miss Lola Stewart Ever heard of making lightning in a laboratory? Well, that’s just what these sci entists are doing! This fascinating machine is being used to generate static electricity (lightning to most people). Really looks interesting, doesn’t it? These experimenters hope to be the “Future Scient- ists of America.” Here, these members of the Science Club are distilling water and doing a good job of it. They’ll do about any experiment anyone “dreams up,” so if you sniff an evil smell some noon hour you can bet it’s the “scientists” at work in room 204. Sponsor AUDIO-VISUAL CLUB Mr. Howard Yunker Here, one of the more advanced members of the Audio-Visual Club is showing two other fellows how to splice film. You have no doubt welcomed some Audio-Visual boy’s intrusion when he took away “study- ing time” to show a movie. Many thanks to our “camera men.” Carrying equipment to and from rooms where movies are to be shown is also part of the duty of the Audio- Visual club boys. Here, some of the standard apparatus is being carried to a part of the building where the movie will be set up. Muscles plus skill are needed in this club.

Hobart High School manages to provide a full sports program despite limited facilities. It is the aim of the athletic department that every student shall have satisfying experiences in the sports suited to his particular skills and interest. Athletics train a boy not only for physical fitness, but also for mental alertness. An athlete soon learns that in order to gain any worthwhile success he must give out every thing he has. Athletics are no place for shirkers. Sports also teach fairness and a respect for another’s rights and privileges. A student who may not be at the top of his class scholastically may, through accomplishments in sports, become aware of potentialities of which he had before been unaware. He discovers that after all there is a place for him in life if he is willing to make it. SPORTS
