HANDICRAFT CLUB The Handicraft Club was organized in September, 1955 to give the girls of Junior and Senior High the opportunity to en- joy themselves socially while making attractive and useful art- icles for their mothers, friends, homes, or for themselves.

Each girl is taught to make val- uable use of leisure time by crocheting, knitting, tatting, embroidering, m king favors, or any other form of handiwork in which she may be especially interested. The girls have had several social functions. Many of the holidays have been celebrated by them at home room parties. They visited the Quilt Show at the Naval Armory, and have plgne for many social activities in the future. The officers of the club are as follows: President - Claudine Peasley Vice-President - Bernadine Chase Treasurer A Secretary - lary Ann Daniels The talented home-maker and sponsor of this group is Irs. Gescho. THE TBLEGRAPHIC CLUB The Telegraphic Club sponsored by lr. Eman, is rapidly in- creasing in membership. Although there are only six members at present, more and more student interest in the club is being aroused. Ur. Eman's main object in organizing such a club was to teach the students of this school how to send and receive messages in code by the telegraph. This subject is both educational and interesting.
