Under the direction of Mr. Flynn, they perfect their i'moves for Fri- day matches. The chess team survives on inter- est and the members' enthusiasm for the game. Students have discov- ered intellectual stimulation which they derive from a challenging game of chess. This year, the team grew considerably, which was a comfort- ing welcome among the veterans. I-Iere's hoping next year's team will be just as strongl

The Cy- cling Club, sponsored by Mr. Chit- tick, has been known to ride any- where from five miles to fifty miles at a time. Despite rumors of perfec- tion, the cyclers have been seen with skinned knees and bruised el- bows. Favorite voyages include rides down the East River Drive, trips to the shore, or, if the weather is not up to par or if the time does not allow, a cruise around Abington or Chelten- ham will have to suffice. Mr. Shearbafs sportsmen's club never had a dull moment. lf they weren't learning the basics of target practice, they were attentively lis- tening to an adventure-packed story about one of Mr. Shearba's numer- ous, single-handed victories. Other activities included watching infor- mative movies on gun safety and les- sons on keeping weapons clean. And how to skin a poor defenseless bunny!!
