S. have been blessed with a brand new club, one under the direction ol' a very able fellow, none other than Mr. Blomquist, alias Rama de Flora . Officers were elected for the year. wth Patt Strand as President, Jupe Person as vice-President, Nick Menghini as Secretary. Don Pedo as Treasurer, and of course we musn't forget Ted Lofstrom as Sargent-at-Arms. With this staff heading it, the Spanish Club, offic- ially known as El Tertulia de Amigos Esparolesn, or the Circle of Spanish Friends, for those of you who aren't native Spaniards, met rather regularly to hold short programs to further an interest in Spanish in the form of reports, musical numbers, poems. and other items of interest. Club pins were decided ugron, and a joint Latin-Spanish meeting and party was also held. A constitution, which had been discussed and agreed upon by all the members. was drawn up by Beryl Miench, and served as a basis for all tE.e club rules and business. Along about April the club undertook to present a radio play during a half hour program over station WMIQ. It too, was based on their study of the language. With a membership of approximately thirty, the club is expected to be enlarged by additional mem- bers when those who plan to include Spanish in their curricula show an inclination to join.

Recreation Room ,gf For years now Mr. Egizii has been plugging for a room where the kids could hang out after school. He put the bug in the ear of Bob Mortensen and Rosalie Fontana, presidents of the Hi-Y and Girl Reserves, so this fall they got the OK of the authorities to use the old art room in the basement. The Student Council staged a contest for plans to decorate the room. The winning one. picked from several for beauty, utility and low cost, was turned in by Margi Dundon. The worst was yet to come though, bc cause 100 recruits were needed to help do the dirty work of painting. These brave volunteers, nearly all girls, each night after school would get their painting rigs on and dig in. By the time the job was done there were plenty of blisters and everyone was sprayed with paint, but the job turned out was really professional. fWell, almost anyway.j The next lap of the plan was to find furnishings Cwe're still lookingbg a few fold- ing chairs were painted in gay enamel to brighten up the little nook , The C 84 W Pop Co. donated a slick knotty pine bar and a clock: Mayor Raffin gave a radiog and the Hi-Y bought a ping-pong table, which hasn't had a moments rest since it came. The students can get to- gether here before and after school and it's usually jammed up to the red scallops for ping- pong and cribbage tournaments. The job of manager was Tom Kirkbride's, and later, that of his right hand man, Betty Richards. They took charge of ordering and selling the bars, pop, etc. On the executive committee were Bob Mortensen, Bill Carpenter, Rosalie Fontana, and Margi Dundon. To everyone who helped make the rec room a reality, we say, swell going . Page bixty nine
