The Royal Masque. however, goes on, We started the first of the year by electing officers for the fall term. Bill Peake has been a very active and efficient program chairman ln the programs we have had boys in short plays and have found that Noel Thurman, George Drescher, and Tom Har- grove have displayed considerable acting ability. There have been few Royal Masque meetings during the time the senior play was being rehearsed, as several of our members were in the cast, namelyg john Fels, Tom l-largrove, George Drescher, lim Moss, Dick Raymond, Gilbert Ades, and Edwin Barnes. Mr. Gardner was naturally with them during practice. Immediately after Christmas we will begin to study and cast the Royale Masque play of this year. The date will be sometime in late lVlarch.

C raig Alford The Athenaeum is bringing to a close the fall term of its seventy-eighth year in school. ln this year we feel that we have worked hard for the school through the Athenaeum, The Athenaeum has grown from a debating society to a literary and social organization and has developed in influence and prestige chiefly through the hard work of its members. The traditions formed during these many years are cultivated and cherished, one of these traditions is to give annually a Christmas dance, which is the social high spot of the holidays for younger Louisvillians. We believe we have ac- complished t ' by presenting to Louisville an excellent orchestra in the beautiful Crys al Ballroom of the Brown l-lotel. Because of the pledges that we have inducted, we have had less time than usual for outside speakers. However, we did hear some fine talks from Messrs. Bradbury, Tapp, and Koerber among the faculty. The Athenaeum is pleased to have presented the school with a trophy case for the new gymnasium. Also we presented a plaque to Mr. Blandford for his untiring work in getting the gym for us. The Athenaeum wishes the Class of '39lY2 all the luck in the world. ,Q . c .... .,,.,,s- ,,,,5..-,.-if

I l RIFLE TEAIT This year the Rifle Team had the biggest turnout in its history. Over lOO embryo Male Annie Oalcleysn reported to Sgt. Sleeth at the gallery range in the new gymnasium. The new range, it may be safely said, is the best of its kind connected with any R.O.T.C. unit. Although through the process of graduation we lost many of the team, we hope, with the support of the old men who are left, and the boys who are chosen from those who try out, to have one of our most successful seasons. The veterans who are again with the team and their respective offices are as follows: F. C. Schneider, Captain, l.. E. Leonhardt, Recorder, W. C. Caw- thorn, Secretary, C. H. Lund, Range Officer, l-l. C. Dittol I. W. Lewis, K. M. Moore, l. W. l-loppe, N. A. C-eorge, W. B. Fowlks, l. R. Kane. The Coach is Staff Sgt. Sleeth.
