Scrihlnlers' Club The Scribblers' Club, composed of sopho- mores and juniors under the leadership of Miss Pot- ter, promotes an interest in writing. During the monthly meetings held in the regular club periods, various styles of creative work have been studied and then used as models. The club members have written light essays, cinquains, and even verses for greeting cards. They have submitted some of their work to the Unquity Echo and have felt rewarded when their literary efforts have appeared in print. The highlight of the year was the annual contest held in the spring. Prizes were given for the best informal essay. Bdllfl. Milton High School is proud of its band. Directed by Mr. Tatro, these members have re- hearsed every Tuesday and Friday morning before school as well as period three on Thursday.

Latirl-Anlerican Club Under the guidance of Miss Neylan, the Latin-American Club, consisting of junior and senior girls, meets once a month on Tuesday, third period. During these meetings the members watch films on foreign countries, use common Spanish expressions, or put on short musical and dramatic programs based on the Latin-American countries. In this way, they become better acquainted with their southern neigh- bors. The outstanding event of the year was a tea in honor of the exchange teacher from Argentina, Miss Samada.
