Model Airplane Club 1 lie Model Airplane Club has just passed its third year at Mount Vernon. Charlie Wilson was the first president, while Dick Ransopher has served as president for the last two years. Mr. Hatch is the sponsor. We have had flights on every clear club day here at school and in- teresting meetings when the weather is bad. Flying combat was thrilling to watch as well as to take part in. This experience has given us fewer crack-ups. We have purchased several trainers for the less experienced members to practice flying with, as well as other supplies. Meetings on Saturdays and after school drew good participation. The club year was climaxed by a business meeting and a picnic.
