Jack Walker watches intently to make sure Douglas LaBarr measures exactly the right amount to insure the success of this experiment. Although this test is an interesting one, most students bear other opinions whenever noticeable odors prevail in the vicin- ity of room 208. Wonder why??!! “Looking for something, Eugene?” could easily be the query of any student who drops into room 204 after school, as an exhibit on chick embryology for the Science Fair is being prepared by Eugene Reisinger. This is only one of the fine projects upon which many hours were spent. Science Barbara Klindt eagerly watches as Vivian Isakson and Dolly Sanak make adjustments on the darkroom equipment they will use in making an enlargement of their print. Good luck, girls! BI-PHY-CHEM CLUB Of the various clubs, perhaps those dealing with science give a student the best opportunity to display hidden talents through the combination of a creative mind and hours of hard work. Of course, as all work and no play made Jack a dull boy, so science would be dull without varied activities, one of these being a fascinating hypnotism demonstration by Mr. Moody. Films on minerals, inventions, and other scientific topics are also greatly enjoyed. CAMERA CLUB As the year flies by, Hobart High ' s ‘shutterbugs’ become busier and busier as yearbook deadlines loom ahead. Taking pictures for the yearbook is no easy task as so often each is not only taken but often must be taken over. They always come through with flying colors, though, and may we say “Hats off” to each photographer who helped the yearbook staff in making a successful annual.

Speech Club Highlighting this year ' s activities was the annual trip to Purdue for two days of intense debating. Such issues as con- gressional investigations took much re- search as illustrated by Arden Camp- bell, Myrna Smith, Mary Lee Phillips, Bonnie Scharbach, and Rene Distell. Usher Club Those helpful guys you see at every convo and ball game, always ready to find you a seat, are none other than members of the Ushers Club. Pausing for a moment on a busy afternoon are Herb Peterson, Pete Bessigano, Fred Kyle, Dave Mergl, Tom Mole, Ken Schroeder, Jon Ewigleben, and Jack Caldwell. Librarians Making decorations and bookmarkers for the library is only one of the many jobs the librarians accomplish. They keep the books in good order, check them out and take care of the maga- zines and papers. All is not work for these charming girls, however, for many pleasant afternoons of fun and talk are passed away while working. Maybe Janet Schmelter, Barbara Cisman, Bar- bara Burke, and Rita Schultz are think- ing about a party that the club will be having soon.

Latin Club Studying the background, social life, and other aspects of the Roman Empire was one of the club’s interesting activities. A bit more on the humorous side was a pan- tomimed football game performed by the members for the Latin classes, with Caesar’s forces opposing Pompey’s men. Carrying through a Roman theme, the annual Christ- mas Party was a gay affair. Gail Jolliff, Margie Blanchard. Jon Ewigle- ben, Arden Campbell, Wayne Hughes, Joyce An- derson, Kareen Kienly, Linda Rice, and Virginia Groover were a few of the Romans” taking part in the play at the Christmas Party. Spanish Club Beautiful senoritas . . . colorful swing- ing skirts . . . daring bull fighters . . . Yes, Spain is a romantic sounding place and the members of the Spanish club al- ways have an enjoyable evening at their club meetings, seeing movies, playing games, and talking about the beautiful land. Who knows — maybe someday one of them may be taking an exciting trip to Spain. Arranging a colorful bulletin board display are three advanced Spanish students, Alice Cogley, Regina Evans, and Jackie Peterson. Audio-Visual The Audio-Visual club certainly has a job on its hands keeping all the high school classes sup- plied with movies. The boys are kept busy show- ing movies in classes, scheduling projectors, order- ing films, and fixing any films that might have been broken while they were being shown. Here we see Chuck Hallas checking over a pro- jector to be sure that it will be in good running condition whenever it is needed.
