“You want to dance ?” Mambo, conga, waltz, fox trot, jitterbug? Just name it and you’ll find the right record in the huge stack that’s always right at your finger- tips. Even if you can’t dance, you can still find an evening of good, clean fun at the Rek. There’s never a dull moment at the Rek as you have your choice of ping-pong, television, cards, or you can even read a book or magazine, knit a pair of argyles or just sit around. Mrs. Harry Frieden, more com- monly known as “Ma,” is always there to whip up a chocolate malt or a ham sandwich in case anyone is hungry. Or you can just get a coke, potato chips, or a candy bar. Not only is the Rek a regular meeting place on Wednesdays, after the game on Fridays, and after the show on Saturday, but on special occasions too, when we en- joyed music by one of the well- known bands in our area and when we had that wonderful Christmas party with a floor show and all. 15

“What makes that go?” was a question often heard last November when the seniors participated in Busi- ness-Industry-Education Day. In previous years, either the teachers visited factories and offices or representa- tives of those organizations visited the schools. This year the students were invited to do the visiting. Businessmen and manufacturers played host to the senior classes of several of the high schools in the area. In Moline, the seniors met at Wharton Field House where they were assigned places in busses or cars which took them to their destinations. After an in- teresting tour through the stores and factories, the seniors were invited to have luncheon with their hosts. Short, informal, explanatory talks were given after the luncheon by the hosts and the students were given a chance to ask questions. 17
