Mounce. was taken in late fall so that the club members could compare contemporary art to the older forms. They had several sales during the year including a mistletoe sale at Christmas.

ARCHERY CLUB Archery Club was open to any stu- dents or faculty members who had an interest in archery. During the fall and spring months, the members practiced hard to improve their skill in the sport when the amateur archers practiced their shooting adjacent to the boys' field- house at their weekly meetings. Mrs. J. Nemec, the club ad- visor, said that the participants used their own equipment in their work toward perfection. Although the clubis ac- tivities included no field trips, the members learned a great deal from their co-operation and experience of work- ing together. This past year, the Archery Club had seven active members who worked diligently to encourage more enthusiasm in our school for this skillful and ancient form of sport which remains popular today. AMATEUR RADIO During the weekly meetings, the boys in Amateur Radio contacted people the world-over. By doing this, the members made many new and valuable friends and expanded their international knowledge. Al- though there were no requirements for entrance, an elec- tronic background was an aid in the operation of the ham radios. The club strived to give necessary experience to these boys who wanted to obtain ham licenses. ln Novem- ber the ham operators entered the Code and Phone Con- test. For twenty-four hours the boys tried to contact as many stations as possible in the United States, its posses- sions, and Canada. Under the guidance of lVlr. lVl. E. Mac- Donald, Amateur Radio had several paper drives to make the money needed to purchase new equipment. TOP ROW: T. Waller, B. Bedsole, F. Burcs. SECOND ROW: E. Stcppuhn, B. Felgenhrzuer, Mrs. J.
