SCULLEN The purpose of organizing the Arena Club was to give the boys of the High School a literary training. To accomplish this, the programs of the meetings have consisted of debates, recitations, prepared speeches, extemporaneous speeches, etc. Last fall the Club conducted a mock trial, which proved to be very amusing, as well as instructive. At hrst debate took the leading part in each program, but they became rather monotonous and greater emphasis is now placed upon current events and reports. Besides literary work, thetclub has managed most of the boys athletics, and is the sole supporter of track work. Last spring the Hypatian Club challenged the Arena Club to a declamation contest. Practically all the boys in the club took part in the tryout for this event. The following boys were chosen to compete with the girls: Willie Permian, Herbert Thom, and Ejner Hentze. The Hypatian was represented by Thelma Hughs, Katie Strome, and Mable Gadke. This contest was held on the evening of june 2, 1911. The discision was given in favor of the boys.
