HI-Y NEWS Our local Hi-Y Club is just finishing its third year. By this time we have passed the organizational stage and are now trying to improve our group. Two of our members, Meredith Wesler and Richard Nelson, attended Camp Nelson Dodd this year. Bud Kemper, our president, had attended the year before as had our vice-president, Myron Arnett. At this camp the boys picked up several good ideas for improving our club. The camp period was August l0th to 17th. Our Hi-Y year was officially opened at Camp Kern early in Septernber. Several of our boys attended this weekend session. The boys had a very interesting and educational time. In November we held a paper drive that turned out to be quite successful. We would like to thank the community for its support. Since so many people had said they liked our Christmas music last year, the Hi-Y decided to play recorded carols again this Christmas. We hope everyone en- joyed them. -' Some of the boys attended the district conference held at Fairmont on january 24th. This conference has always been one of the high points in the Hi-Y year and this year proved to be no exception. On April Sth the club sponsored a donkey basketball game in the school gym- nasium. Again we want to thank the community for their support. We hope you en- joyed it as much as we did. As this year comes to a close we have just one comment to make. We hope the people of New Paris and jefferson Township will continue to back us as well as they have in the past. You have really been swell. Let's keep it up. 48
