We all will agree that the Red Cross is a very worthy cause. It is a staff on which the poor and needy can lean. Therefore, this club should be looked up to as one of the most outstanding in the school. The members, with the help of Miss Shires, have done many things for the school. One of the things they have done has been to establish a yearly drive to aid those persons who need glasses and cannot afford to buy them. This club, above all others, deserves all the support we gan give it. Social Science Service Club First Row: Bette Greene, Jessie Bryner, Wanda Emmer, Naomi Giffin, Robert Roth, Mr. Coe.

Yes, as you have gathered, this club serves, and serves righteously, too. For instance, at Christmas time it always sees that the school has a Christmas treeg also, this club usually conducts a campaign for the needy. Last year it sent baskets too, containing food, clothing, and toys. Of course, the club could not possibly have done these things without the able help of Miss Dunham and Mr. Coe, who, with the cooperation of the mem- bers, worked hard to live up to the name of the club.

.SZ l Red Masque Play .lack Selander, Esther Jenkins, llelen Sternbaum, Alice Mathews, Willis Lewis, Robert MeAninr:h, Robert Tobias, Harold Loesch, Vivian Miller, Gran-u Ilonsc. Because of the very excellent material on hand the dramatics instructor, E. L. Heasley, decided to produce a harder and more dramatic play than has been given by the Red Masque for a long time, It was Rebound, a play that has been popular with both amateur and professional players for many seasons. Needless to say, the production turned out to be a great success, after the hard work and cooperation of the players, the produc- tion staff and Mr. Heasley. Players in the dramatic scene above are: Orin CJack Selanderl, the small son of Sadie Jordan QEsther Jenkinsl, now widowedg Ella Jordan CHelen Sternbaumj a maiden dressmakerg Jane 'Crosby fAlice Mathewsj, servant in the Jordan household, almost one of the familyg Ben Jordan, fWillis Lewisj, the youngest son, black sheep of the familyg Dr. Curtis fltobert McAninchJ, the old family physiciang Judge Bradford fRobert Tobiasl, lawyer friend of old Mrs. Jordan, admirer of' Janeg Henry Jordan fHarold Loeschl, the oldest song Emma Jordan QVivian Millerj, his second wifeg Nettie QGrace Honseb, her daughter by a former marriage. Members of the cast not included in the picture were Hannah QI-Ielen Downardj, the family maid of all work, and Jim Jay 1Albert Pothl, deputy sheriff.

Bush, Meredith, Ladd, Siuhl, Moxvry, Underwood. This club represents those pupils taking the Vocational 'Course and, of course, that is where the club gets its name. The president is John Baki and he makes an excellent one. This club, just as all others, has a sponsor, who is no other than Mr. Oberlander. Il' you think back, you will remember that this was the club that gave the Vocational Club dance last fall. When you realize that the club is made up of boys, and boys alone, you will recognize that they deserve a big hand.

Every tall during football season, this organization of girls parades the field in perfect step and order, and all of us seated in the stands thrill with pride to think that such an inspiring sight is an organization of our school. However, 1 wonder if any of us realize how much work and time is spent by these girls fwith the cooperation of Mr. Holcombej to make this organization perfect. Not only do they practice during the season, but all the school year they spend a part of their time in practicing their different formations and the varied rhythms beat out by their sticks. I say we thrill with pride! We should, and we should also give each of the girls in the Drum and Bugle Corps, and also Mr. Holcombe, a good pat on the back. The Girls' Glee Club J.

I clon't believe that the name needs much explaining for it is exactly what it implies. An organization of girls who sing for the pure joy they get out of it. Here again, Mr. Holcombe lends a helping hand and directs the girls in their singing. Go down to the auditorium during the third period on Thursday and you'll find them hard at work, stopping here and there-correcting a mistake or polishing up a passage. Sometimes they come through without any stops feeling a little elated over the fact that- they have gotten the swing of the song, especially in that particularly hard place. Somehow or other you feel like trying a little harder to overcome your own mistakes when you leave such a practice.
