Dues of fifty cents are collected every semester, and if a mem- ber fails to pay he is deprived of the privilege of electing officers. Failure to attend meetings consecutively automatically removes the person's name from the roll. The second Tuesday of every month, the Junior Hi-Y and the Senior Hi-Y hold a joint dinner meeting. The club meets for educational, social, and recreational purposes. Leading citi- zens of Joliet speak, or some other type of pro- gram is provided. Beside the regular weekly meetings, the Junior Hi-Y engages in many other activities. Several times each year outdoor meetings are held. Dances are sponsored, and the Mother and Son banquet, and the date banquet are held annually. Several pep meetings are sponsored each year, and a good many Hi-Y conferences are held to which the Junior Hi-Y sends its quota. The Hi-Y camp, Camp Seymour, is open to a certain num- ber of Joliet boys each summer. Mr. W. L. Hughes is the faculty sponsor, and the officers of the organization are: Frank Ward- ley, president, Richard Streitz, vice president, Jack Ellis, secretaryg and Julian Hughes, treas- urer.
