i if The main purpose of the Literary Society is to read and discuss a number of books: classical, fiction, non-fiction and modern selections. The Literary Society has increased its membership fourfold since the '68-'69 school year. Last spring the Literary Society conducted the first Prose and Poetry Writing Contest. The winning entries and a large selection of poetry were published in The lnkslinger's Songbook. This year the members of the Literary Society conducted two contests with a resulting publication for each. The Fall and Winter Edition of the Songbook is published just before Christmas vacation, and another edition comes out in late spring. The winning poetry entry is published in the yearbook. -.--it U. to r.l: Bill l-lighsrnith, Margaret Squires, Susan Bouvier, Kathy Pfaff, Fred Garvey. i r U. to r.j: Ron Dula, Cynthia .4 ' .
