SHORT STORY CLUB The purpose of the Short Story Club is to create or awaken a love of literature, to foster a respect for the rights of others through proper care of library books, to establish a varied background of reading for the boy which may assist him in his future choice of an occupation, and, finally, to awaken the latent literary talent which is in most people. Members of the club aim to read various types of stories and retell or dramatize parts so that others will want to read them. It also affords an outlet for the irresistable writer,s urge. The club also makes posters and cutouts suggestive of the many short stories they have read. The members prepare lists of books of various types of stories. This club work has resulted in an appreciation on the part of its members of the better types of literature. Miss Williams is the adviser. Mm William: Page Tbirty-one

At present there are thirty-nine members. Our aim has been two-fold: enjoyment and improve- ment. In planning our yearts procedure, we decided to read and present one-act plays, both before the club in room programs and on the stage in the auditorium, and to work toward improvement in enunciation, pronunciation, and expression. To acquire stage presence and to learn stage procedure, we had a series of pro- grams, consisting of monologues, recitations, and dialogues. Short originalsituations 0t sketches were written and dramatized. Our club was divided into five groups, which read many plays. One of these, hMiss Civilization? was presented in the auditorium with the following cast: Lily Ericson, Dor- othy Wieseke, Robert Wolfsohn, Leroy Stenborg, Richard Cutts, and Melvin Cohen. Other members of the club were policemen and hremen. Another play, hDo You Believe in Lucky was given after school at a matinee. The following people took part in it: Rose Galanter, Jessie Steinherg, Dor- othy Burke, Jane Rose, Doris Yampolsky, Howard Lane, Walter Bumiller, Esther Mozofsky, Gerald Cook, Billy Goldberg, Florence Antonier, and Frances Johnson.

PUBLIC SPEAKING CLUB Clear enunciation, good sentence structure, and control of voice and body have been the aims of the Public Speaking Club of 303, which was directed by Miss Eich. In particular, we emphasized the fact that a pleasing voice, full, well-rounded, and modulated would be the primary aim of every speech. In order to accomplish these purposes, the club began by telling fairy tales. The five best stories were retold at the John Hay school. After this work, we used magazine material for talks on current topics. We worked for organization of material that would be pleasing and interesting. Later, a declamatioh contest was held in order to cultivate poise and animation of delivery. This term, we stressed distinct enunciation particularly. Readings were given, keeping this aim in mind. The latter part of the term was devoted to a one-act play, ttThe Man in the Bowler Hat? by A. A. Milne. A double cast was used in order to have more pupil participation. Miss Eicb Page Tbirty-two
