Club Keeping the library in good order, taking charge of displays and exhibits, and getting the students of Melrose High School interested in the library was the aim of the Library Club.

As the enrollment of the school expanded, the membership of Hi-Pi, the math club, expanded also. In the beginning, Hi-Pi was composed of freshmen alone; then the membership was opened to freshmen and sophomore college preparatory students. Under the guidance of Mr. Thomas Ganley, the members undertook special outside projects, attended lectures and movies, and took field trips to I.B.M. in Boston, Lincoln Laboratories, and Bell Laboratories in North Andover in order to see firsthand how mathematics can be applied to industry.

The Girls’ Athletic Association, under the guidance of Miss Chase, sponsored all varsity, junior varsity, and intramural activities at Melrose High. G.A.A. was open to all girls in the school who desired to be associated in some way with athletics. Films and speakers on seasonal sports were attended often by the many members of this club. Thus, the importance of intramural activities was stressed in the curriculum for students at M.H.S. G. A. A. The Student Activities Ticket offered an inexpensive plan for students to at- tend several school events. Under the leadership of Mr. Neiman, financial records of student activities and organizations were maintained. Tickets for games, dances, and plays were exchanged for the students. The office also benefited the school by acting as a depository for the various clubs. S. A. T. S.A.T. OFFICE Seated , left to right: D Downs, P. Vaughan, J. MacCormack, M. Stod- dard. Standing: J.

Zink Leaders’ Club Under the direction of Miss Chase, a girls’ physical education club has been started this year at M.H.S. The members gained valuable experience in handling athletic activities in which they were interested. All students benefitted by this club since it allowed for smaller groups in the gym classes to be handled and super- vised by a competent person. Future Teachers of America Under the direction of Miss Eleanor G. Evans, the Directory of Elementary Education, and Mr. Hildreth, this club aims to interest young people in the teaching profession by actual class participation.
