Organized only last year, the Book Club is successfully achieving its principal aims. These are to learn of the enjoyment, knowledge, and satisfaction that reading offers, and to discuss books that are of value in school and in later years. The small but active group meets on the last Thursday of the month at the home of one of the members. A business meeting is followed by an informal discussion of the current book. Under the guidance of Miss Margaret Kinley, faculty adviser, the club sent a contribution to an educational organization supplying books to backward and war-torn areas. Several meetings were devoted to the comparison and discussion of some Shakespearian plays. ... DISCOPHILES The, new Senior Discophiles Club was formed to promote interest in and to further develop knowledge of all music — classical, semi-classical, popular, and western. Programs included listening to and discussing classical and semi-classical records, the showing of films on popular music, and demonstrating the effects drumming has upon music. Mr. Nelson Bragg, a W. C. O. P. disc jockey, spoke to the group and played records revealing the differences among hill-billy, western, and folk songs. The enthusiastic contributions of the tripled membership and of the well-organized program committee made the new Discophiles Club Meetings appealing to all music lovers. First Row: J. Webber, N.

Coach Leavitt and her group of outstanding athletes had little trouble in maintaining a standard of success and sportsmanship. Goalie Janice Martin held the varsity score to only three points against our team during the last two years, and Marcia Polley, playing her third year on the varsity team, did a powerful job at center halfback position. Marcia Polley was chosen captain for the year. Barbara MacDonald, Betty Cross, and Susan Powers added their skill and experience to the defensive line. Mary Ann Pomposo, equally versatile at any offensive position and Nancy Oldford, team’s high scorer, played important parts on the strong forward line. Nancy Harrington was captain of the junior varsity team, which also submitted a good season record. Cynthia Karlson and Irene Kiley managed the field hcckey team with competence and responsibility. In short, everyone con- nected with the team is to be commended for bringing another successful record to the Lexington High School girls’ field hockey squad. peice Pers Q ye epestes gered ; } exington .... | ea . . “ Charge of the light brigade. . .
