THE CARDINAL - 1932 25 Hi-Y Club t Officers of the Hi-Y Club for the past year were elected just before the close of school in the spring of 1931.

R ichard Nichols Secretary .,.,....,,,,... ,......- J ames McGraw Treasurer ........ ....................,.. J ack Smith Sponsor ..................,,,,,,.,..4.....4.,.....................,...........,.... Coach Swearingen The Hi-Y Club is a branch of the Y. M. C. A. in the high school which is made up of the students: Its purpose is: To create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. Along with this is our motto or slogan- Clean living, clean speech, clean athletics, clean scholarship and contagious Christian character. We began the year by printing the Football Schedules, attractive little cards, which were given to any student 'wishing one. Our second large project was to sponsor a school newspaper which should be a permanent feature in our high school. The Club published a small mimeographed paper for a short time and then handed it over to a regular staff. We have watched with great interest its success and believe it to have been well worth our while. Our meetings every Wednesday evening in the school have consisted main- ly of discussion of school problems and their remedies and programs of various games. Every month we held a supper meetingftureen style. Twice during the year we held initiation ceremonies, each time admitting four new members. About Christmas time we entertained the Chautauqua County Boys Forum at the M. E. Church where discussion of the Hi-Y and its relation to school problems followed a dinner. The last meeting was a Weiner roast held several miles up the lake. .There was a general program of games and all the fun which accompanies an evening by a roaring fire. W W. P. '32

24 THE CARDINAL - 1932 Our Band Our Lakewood High School Band began its second year of work early last fall, under the capable leadership of Mr. Arthur R. Goranson. It made two public appearances before Christmas, one at P. T. A. and one at Chapel, besides playing at every home basketball game during the winter. During the Spring it played on the May Day Festival Program and on the P.T.A. Musical Festival Program. B In January, several new members were added, making the total enrollment thirty-two. The new members, as well as the old ones, worked hard on several new selections, and the band was well represented at the Fredonia Festival, April twenty-ninth. The members of the band are at present: Hugh Clark ............................,....... solo trumpet Dorothy Terrill ..............................,...........

Mellophone The encouragement and boosting that everyone has given the band has aided greatly in its success last year and this year, and every member wishes to take this opportunity to thank every student of Lakewood High, parents, friends, and teachers for the kind cooperation given. We sincerely hope that the band shall go forward and climb to far greater heights than it has today, and that many new members will be ready to start work next fall. Band work is one of the most fascinating and interesting outside activities, and we, that are leaving it, leave it with a feeling of deep appreciation and a strong hope that many others will learn to value it as we have. Every band member gladly gives honor where honor is due-to Mr. Ar- thur R. Goranson, for we esteem him not only for his musical appreciation and ability but also as a man. D. T. 732

26 THE CARDINAL - 1952 The Cardinal Notes H OW School Newrpaper In the spring of 1931 the Hi-Y Club resolved when school began again in September to start and sponsor a school newspaper which would be per- manent. We made plans to ublish ourselves the first three or four issues in order to see how the student body would take to it, then it would be handed over to a regular staff. Setember rolled around and everyone in the club helped in gathering news for a mimeographed four-page paper which was issued three times, being given out in Chapel. It seemed to meet with favor. Meanwhile the possibilities of having a printed paper were being looked into. A printed paper would require advertisements which would be especially hard to obtain at a time like this. Since the financial part of a newspaper means its existence, we thought it best to mimeograph the paper thruout the year, hoping that next year a snappy little printed paper could be published. So we handed the paper over to a regular staff which we had appointed. From then on a larger paper, usually eight pages, was put out and three cents a copy charged for it. Almost a hun- dred subscriptions for the year at thirty cents each were acquired in the first drive. The name The Cardinal Notes was chosen for it. None of us who worked on the staff to put out the paper every month had had any experience. We looked upon this year as a starter and did not expect much better results than we received. A number of changes were made with the members on the staff and the following is a list of those who have held positions. Editor-in-Chief ............ ............................................... W inston D. Peake Assistant Editor .......... .......................................................... L illian Peterson Art Editors ..................... .......,.... C onstance Attwood, james McGraw Exchange Editor ................. .............................................. W illiam Ingleson Production Manager ....... ................................................ F red Anderson Circulation Managers ............ ......... E red Anderson, james McGraw Typists ..................................................................... Ruth Pardee, Marjorie Hale Sponsor ..............................................................,.............,. Coach C. E. Swearingen Social Editor .............................. Archie Anderson, William McConnell Sports Editor ......................,................................................................ james Gardner School News Editors ........................... Florence Falldine, Lura Bucklin Humor Editors ..............,....,...................,................,......... Fred Butler, Paul Coe The Staff for next year is yet to be chosen. We hope to have a fine and snappy little printed paper from now on. This year has seen the beginning and the hardest part of publishing a school paper done. The student body is interested in the paper and the staff has a year's experience behind them. All indications favor the steady publication of The Cardinal Notes from now on. W. P. '32
