WORTHY ORGANIZATIONS M UNHALL SENIOR-JUNIOR HI-Y The Hi-Y endeavors to serve as one of the mediums through which character may be developed. The club strives to develop within its members such desiwblc traits as morality, ethics and good citizenship. From their experience in the club, the boys learn to accept responsibility. They develop leadership, felllowship, initiative and respect for authority. At Christmas time the Hi-Y decorates the school Christmas tree, and sponsors the All-Club party. In the spring their Easter services are presented by a minister, a priest, and a rabbi, to show that it is tolerant toward religion. Mr. Trimble and Mr. Lacko sponsor the two groups. First Row: T.

The Tops was first organized in the autumn of 1937, to give recognition to those students outstanding in school citizenship, regardless of whether or not they were outstanding in activities. The idea was originated by Miss Brown who selected Mr. Lloyd as sponsor of the ninth and tenth grade members. Since then the group has been divided into two closely related clubs—the Juivor and Senior Tops. In the Senior group there are seventy-five members. New members are selected by committees, each of which is appointed to a certain home room and from it selects the three students it thinks are best qualified. These are approved by the home room teacher and six from each grade are selected by the vote of the students. There are four elections each year, the sophomores electing sophomores and the freshmen electing freshmen. The Senior Tops encourage a feeling of cooperation in the school and make the pupils better citizens. SENIOR GIRL RESERVES To build character and personality is the purpose of the club. It has been so successful in reaching its aim that the membership has increased considerably. The organization met every two weeks and participated in various programs consisting of diversified topics. The outstanding events of the year were a Hallowe’en party, the joint Girl Reserve-Hi-Y dance, and a visit to the Buhl Planetarium. The Senior Girl Reserves were successfully guided through the year under the sponsorship of Miss Daly and the leadership of the officers, Virginia Morgan, Martha Lacko, Lois Humphreys and Martha Lloyd. All of them strived to follow out their motto As a Girl Reserve, I will try to face life squarely and find and give the best”.

The Junior Red Cross Council, is under the supervision of Miss Charleton at Woodlawn and Miss Widdowson of Eleventh Avenue. Each year a drive” is sponsored by the Junior Red Cross in which the pupils of the schools are asked to participate or To Serve” their cause. The money collected is spent on persons most needy of the help in the school district. Although the Junior Red Cross is busy all seasons, Christmas means filling stockings, redressing dolls, repairing toys and distributing them to little boys and girls who may not have had any Christmas if it had not been for the council. Easter requires the making and filling of baskets to be sent to some worthy institution or organization. Another work of the Council is to place small cardboard boxes in each home room into which the students are asked to put some little toy or article destined to some foreign boy or girl across the sea. Discussions are held at meetings of the council on the way to gain money to send representatives to the convention at Washington D. C. Two very gainful means are their concessions at the candy and milk stands each year, and the holding of tea dances. The representative to Washington, is one of the council, and is elected by the members and approved by the faculty. This enables him to go to the convention where speeches are made about foreign and national council work conducted by the Junior Red Cross. Suggestions are made on how to improve the councils and ideas are interchanged to further the work already being carried on. Between meetings of the convention a dance is held and a tour of the most interesting and impressive sites of the city is made. Upon the return of the representative, he tells about the trip, presents the ideas, suggestions, papers and material obtained so that our council will be able to continue its cause To Serve”.
