Glee Club When strains of music penetrate the eighth period study hall on Monday and Wednesday af- ternoons, it does not take long to realize that the Glee Club is hard at work. Under Miss Stein- dorff's outstanding direction and Ginu Doepke's capable leadership, the Glee Club has done a laudable job this year.

There is one consolation in the start of school after Christmas Vacation--basketball! Brains and brawn are definitely essential for this rough and ttunble sport. Girls with black and blue fingers are not uncommon sights, while the gradual de- terioration of the gym may be noted by observing the splintered floors and falling plaster. By some means or another both the gym and the girls survive to take part in inter-class and outside games. SCHEDULE OF HOCKEY GAMES Senior Team junior Team February 5 . . MDS MUS . . . .
