THE WIN-NEL 1938 GLEE CLUB The Glee Club was organized this year under the supervision ot Miss Swaney. This is the first time in the school's history that the club elected officers. Hilda Wyssbrod was elected president and Vivetta Burkhalter, secretary and treasurer. In September, 1937, the Glee Club members enjoyed a wienei roast but due to the weather they were forced to return to the school house early. At Christmas time the GLEE CLUB invited anyone in school who wished to go, to go Caroling with them. After spreading the Spirit of the Holidays to many, everyone enjoyed themselves eating ham- burgers. The Glee Club participated in the Literary Contest. They sang The Little Brown Bird and Beautiful Dreamers . Many of the members have talented voices, which blended well together. Page Twenty-Seven

THE WIN-NEL 1938 GIRL'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION CHRISTMAS PARTY On December 22, 1937 from 4 to 6 the G.A.A. held their Christmas party. The committee was composed of Neva Schramm, Gertrude Lynch, Audrey Runkle, and Barbara Rayhorn. Games and a musical program were enjoyed by all. The program consisted of numbers given by each class. The most important part of the program was Santa Claus. It kept Margaret Bitz and several others wondering why Santa was so large in Freeport and so small in Winslow. Another reason Santa aroused so much curiosity was that he was speechless! Imagine-he did not say one word although he gave us each a gift. Refreshments followed, being served from a table dressed in Christmas decorations and lighted by large red candles. PLAY DAY AT HANOVER The G. A. A. of Hanover invited us to participate in their fall play- day on November 6. Carol Wells, Barbara Rayhorn, Dorothy Klecklei, Gertrude Lynch, Opal Rakowska, and Hilda Wyssbrod made the trip to Hanover, accompanied by Miss Swaney. Six other high schools at- tended. When the representatives arrived they were divided into different groups on a Treasure Hunt. Later teams competed playing basketball, kittenball, and badmin- ton. After this a fine luncheon was served. MAKE DOLLS The G.A.A. decided it was appropriate to make dolls for the children around town. There were not so many that cooperated in making them because of the busy-rush near Christmas. They were made in forms of camels, dogs, cats, and horses. We sincerely hope that the children who received them enjoy- ed them as much as we enjoyed making them. Selling Stationery We sold stationery to our friends to make extra money. We have sold nearly a hundred boxes and Betty Campbell has been our high salesman. The money taken in as a result of these sales has been used to buy athletic equipment for the girls' gym classes. A ping-pong table was our first purchase, followed by the buying of four badmin- ton rackets and shuttlecocks. Page Twenty-Nine
