An orchestra whose music was fitted to the type of dancing, lent a more enhancing atmosphere to the gymnasium. The S. D. C. was a success due to the excellent guid- ance of Mr. Sheehy, faculty adviser. The Class of '41 hopes that the S. D. C. will continue through- out the years in their Alma Mater, as each forthcoming Senior looks forward to it. -105--

-E- vat ma af TECH HI-Y From the cooperation between two great institutions with like principles, Leavenworth High School and the Central Y.M.C.A., has sprung another great organization, the Hi-Y Club. The Tech Hi-Y started bcak in the year 1938. It consisted of twelve members, but has rapidly increased its membership to twenty-four members. In its infancy, the Tech Hi-Y was very little known to the out- side public. Now it is getting mature and the outside world is learning of its good work. The Tech Hi-Y participates in most all the sports activities held at the Central Y.M.C.A. They won the softball crown of the Hi-Y League in the year of 1940. It was also twice runners-up in volleyball and basketball and once in track. In social activities, the Tech Hi-Y was very successful. It helped the T. C. A. and L. L. A. to put over three dances which were held in 1940 and 1941. These dances were very successful. Officers Sal Coviello ,...,.....,,........,..,.,,... .........., .

The Seniors of Leavenworth responded well to practice on Tuesday nights at the Crosby assembly hall. Including the students from the three high schools, there were approximately sixty to eighty members. From Leavenworth there were 100 mem- bers. This is considered very good in view of the fact that there was not a Glee Club last year. The Leavenworth attendance was as follows: Shirley Weaving Ralph Mehemit Thomas Caisse Arnold Blatherwick William Knightly Paul Lapira John Scott Toddo Manzolli Frank Salvatore A. Mastronunzio -l06-
