One of the largest Hi-Y clubs in the school’s history turned out at the beginning of the year 1938. Officers had been elected the previous year anti were to take up their respect- ive duties when the new school year began. The officers were as follows: President, Jack Pethtel; Vice-President, Charlie Brotzman; Secretary, Richard Miller; Treasurer, Jack Kuhn. The first meeting of the year was for the purpose of getting organized and discussing what the club might do in its Monday morning meetings throughout the yera. It was decided that each week two members of the club were responsible for leading a discussion or talking on some educational and interesting subject. Th e members were very fortunate to have such an excellent advisor as Mr. Tidd. He led several of the meetings and did all he could to help the progress of the club. The Hi-Y was not as active this year as in previous years because of the school situation. Two roller-skating parties were sponsored and both of them turned out to be successful. An ice-skating party attracted many of the school’s best ice-skaters. Everyone in the Hi-Y will agree that one of the best meetings was Miss Kelly s talk on fur farming. She told how they raised, fed, and killed the fox for the valuable fur. A discussion which will always be remembered was that talk led by Mr. Tidd on the subject of WORK. The G. R.-Hi-Y Dance was attended 100 and a fine time was had by all. The Hi-Y then gave a dance for the Girl Reserves which climaxed a successful year. Our activities are at an end, and we wish the following Hi-Y’s the best of luck in M. M. H. S. [18]

The Girl Reserves started this year’s program by welcoming their new members with a weiner roast. However, their real membership didn’t come about until after our Recognition Service and Tea given for the mothers and members of the Fortnightly Club. These new members will not soon forget their initiation, which forced each girl to wear about her neck a string of safety pins centered with an onion. Also each wore a ribbon around her head and carried her books in a basket. All these hardships were soothed by events that followed. First, we gave our annual Christmas party for neighborhood children. Santa Claus pre- sented gifts to each and refreshments served to make the event even more enjoyable. Valentine’s Day didn’t slip by until we had a party to celebrate, and the following months the Girl Reserves in collaboration with the Hi-Y’s made their annual dance unique in that it was a Victory Dance because of the school’s success in basketball. I am unable to relate the facts concerning events yet to come, although I will tell you what they will be. The Mother and Daughter Banquet, Hi-Y - G. R. Party, and the Senior Farewell. We leave the further execution of the Girl Reserve slogan and purpose to the future Girl Reserves. Officers: President, Norma Bond; Vice-Pres., Evelyn Kless; Treasurer, Rita Lazarony; Secretary, Ruth Johnson; Marion Bailey present secretary [17]

Plans are progressing to give a concert which will be composed of selections from the opera “Faust,” March 30. It has been difficult to progress rapidly, as the greater percentage of our members arc new and inexperienced. However, they have done well and everyone entertains hope that it will be possible to enter the district contest at Kent this year. Still more far reaching are the thoughts of competing 111 the state contest, if we should receive a sufficiently high rating in the district contest. The success of preceding years surely ought to cheer us on to victory. Officers: President, Norma Bond; Secretary, Mildred McCormick; Treas., Bud Reigert. [191
