Better late than never is the motto of the Alpha Tri-Hi-Y. The ALPHA TRI-HI-Y helps Owing to the illness of Miss Bolden the club wasn't organized until build e beffef Wefld and Pm' almost Christmas time, but are they making up for lost time! This club is composed of approximately fifty junior and Senior girls. Since most of these girls are deep in the throes of puppy love, it was their idea to have a Christmas partv and each invite her man of the hour. Did they have fun? Well, most of them are still re- cuperating! The club also had their own private Christmas party for just the members of the club. The Alphas selected two of their number to advise the Gamma Gra-Y, a Tri-Hi-Y club for the sev- enth and eighth grade girls. This year Eloise Englehart and Doro- thea Hilner have the honor. The Alphas have attended church, taken part in the Rockwood Rally, and bought a mirror for the girls' lavatory in the new building.

In December, Dick Bolden and Gus Hartle represented our Hi-Y at an older boys Hi-Y conference at Evensburg Mountain. Dick wowed them with one of his famous speeches. It seems they had a wonderful time, but you must ask them about that. The Hi-Y held a joint-conference with the Tri-Hi-Y at Rock- wood. The boys in our organization claim they went primarily, to see if the other Tri-Hi-Y clubs have as good looking girls as ours. fTake a bow, girlslj The head engineer of this club is Mr. james Livengood and he sees that we're on all four wheels, in high gear, going full speed ahead.

DISSECTION! INVESTIGATION! CREATION I xl EMBRYO - SCIENTISTS ' x 1 . In the Science department of this institution we have for greenies General Science which is just a general study of the wonders of the scientific world. But beware of what is to follow! Next comes the study of worms and stuff-Biology. The chosen few who want to absorb more scientific knowledge continue their course with the study of Physics. Some students who want to continue their Freshman Science course study f?j Senior Science in order to learn the correct number of calo- ries used in the effort to cook one fried egg. Chemistry is for those who are really ready to knuckle down and put their noses to the well-known grindstone. For a few people who have nothing else to do during certain Activities Periods and for those really interested in Science, we have the Science Club. By the way, we have a Photography club in this school, too, the You Take 'Em, We Make 'Em society. The latter organization is a very worthy one and the HI-POINT is very grateful to them for their fine work and cooperation while taking and developing the pictures for this publication. As for the geniuses who innstruct the Embryo-Einsteins in this department we have Mr. Pfrogner and Mr. Livengood. Mr. Livengood is also the advisor for the Science and Photography Clubs. 125T
