j P t t UHEL BS ART CLUB The Art Club, under the sponsorship of Miss Ethel Guda, has devoted its time toward com- pleting many Red Cross projects. The members were happy to contribute their talent to the war effort. Five hundred tally booklets, numerous menu covers, and table favors were designed for use in the various servicemen's centers and hospitals. The officers were: Lenore Vtfarwick, President, Guyla Templeman, Vice-President, Gwen Hills, Secretary, and Lillian jones, Treasurer. MOVIES Our school now possesses two sound ma- chines, one silent machine, two slide machines, and one film-strip machine. Each week Miss Bernice Austrheim posts a schedule in the office and one in the movie rooms, to inform teachers in advance when a picture is scheduled for them. Mr. Samuel Barth has trained thirty-six boy oper- ators, all volunteers, who work in squads of four under a chief operator. They project a great variety of films each period in the classrooms. STUDENT LIBRARY ASSISTANTS Our student library helpers greatly aid the functioning of our library, Their organization is honorary, for students are accepted only on recommendations from two teachers. The service the students give to the school is: taking attend- ance, shelving books, answering reference gues- tions, issuing magazines, charging and discharge ing books, watching the library lockers. The effi- cient system, by which books are always on the shelves waiting to be used for reference or home reading, is largely due to the student library assistants. THE KELVYN ROLLERS lf you remember the last Talent Show, surely you will also remember the small roller skating act which we gave. There were eight students who participated: William Fiedler, Grace Ruthen- beck, Lester Stoltenberg, Lillian Wevik, George Esau, Lorraine O'Brien, Vtfilliam LaVey, and lrene Cory. W'e've been skating together for quite some time, enjoying it more every time. CHESS CLUB For centuries the game of chess has been played throughout the entire civilized world. lts origin is lost in obscurity. No wonder, then, that it has been called The Game of the Ages. Even though chess is old, this chess club is new, The members will participate in a tournament to determine the champion of Kelvyn Park. Every chess game is different and fascinating with an 28 endless number of plays. 1 t

E YUU Coming to K-elvyn with high hopes for four years of social gaiety, we found instead the hard facts of war. We took them as everybody did. And this is howl A special drive for War Victory Queen, Won by Annette Alexander, brought a total of Sl,5UU in stamps alone. The pennies tossed into the bucket and nickles you paid to see the Red Cross Show added to a neat S5l,602.80. Besides this, the paper drives: the 20 pounds of paper brought for the faculty game, for a Paper Queen won by Virginia Frank, and other drives, totaled to a heavy H5369 pounds. The V-Mail letters we wrote probably made some G.l.'s pulse throb, too. Then over l,4UU Kelvynites groaned with aching muscles in spring, 27 BEAT VW which were results of weeding their Victory Cfar- dens. Next year they can run a l5U-acre farm with ease fprobably. Cookies, via Kelvyns cook- ing class, left for the Service lVlen's Center last Christmas filled with vim, vigor, and vitamins. Look what those goodies did to our Marinese lwo lima. Does that prove something or doesn't it! Every War stamp We have bought since frosh days totaled to the round figure of Sl24,9U5.65, placing on the battle front one Army pursuit plane, SNI scout trainer, LSC landing craft, nine jeeps, three flying ieeps, seven amphibious ducks and two field ambulances. This is what WE have done in our four yearsrware you satisfied? -SYLVIA MALINA
