.Y Welfare Club -QW The VVelfare Club, under the auspices of hir. Gamble, has done some of the finest Work accomplished by any organization at Le Conte. Such Wonderful success could never have been achieved, however. had it not been for the splendid co-operation of the Glee Clubs, Tumbling Club. etc. At the Orthopedic Hospital a program given by the VVelfare Club was witnessed by youngsters who were, in most cases, confined to their beds. The second entertainment was given by the boys at Chino Junior Republic. After the entertainment the club presented the boys one hundred phonograph records. The program at the International Institute of the Y. W. C. A. was appre- ciated by an audience of twenty-five different nationalities. The last program took place at the General Hospital. Assisting Nlr. Gamble in his preparations are various committees who plan the programs. The main purpose of this club is to bring a little sunshine into the lives of the shut-ins and unfortunates. Judging from the letters of thanks the club receives, We feel certain that their efforts are entirely appreciated. There are two commissioners-a boy, Jack llrlorrison, and a girl, Eileen Brown. There are seven directors: Hayes Hertford, Bob Light. llflargaret Hart, James Greene, Glory Herzog, Dorothy Adkins and Frances Tomlinson. Each home room sends a boy and a girl as reporters to the club, and they alternate on their weekly report concerning the club affairs. E813 'Ki Z.f..z:..
