The new Foreign Affairs Club sponsored by Mr. DeTeso, is acquainting the student body with vital world problems by presenting qualified speakers and panel discussions and by attending programs of special interest to social studies students.

Foreign Affairs Club Another new organization, the Debate Club, under the direction of Mr. Frank, provided its members with an opportunity to gain poise through public speaking. At the biweekly meetings students were first briefed on the fundamentals of debat- ing and then given a chance to exercise their knowledge. With such a fine team, it is no wonder that many prizes have been brought to Melrose in competition with its many neighboring opponents. Debate Club First row, left to right: J. Tassinari, P.

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.
