Due to the large number of books lining the library’s walls (about 13,000) Miss Howat needs able workers, which she finds in her 23 assistants who help to fill in cards, check books, and maintain order in the library. The club’s constitution states that The object of this club shall be to make its members more familiar with good usage in library procedure, and to give them an opportunity to practice it to a certain extent.” An annual undertaking of the Library Club is the Book Week Program, which takes place in November. This year, brief scenes from important and interesting books were dramatized by the club. Previously Miss Howat had arranged a weekly display table which would aid you in finding appealing reading material. However, this year, that responsibility was shifted to the club members themselves. It would seem that this club is largely a beneficial organization. That is, of course, true. Nevertheless, they have had several social activities among which was a skating party, a Christmas party and a tea dance. JUNIOR GIRL RESERVES The Junior Girl Reserves, a group made up of Freshman and Sophomores, has spent much of this year in accomplishing their aim. Under the leadership of Miss Daly, they have been learning how to grow up and act like young ladies should. When they come in contact with others, they put into practice the things they have learned at their meetings. The members of the junior group have been guests of the senior group at their dances and parties throughout the year. They met with the senior group when special guests and lecturers spoke.

HONORS IN PUBLIC SPEAKING Honors in Forensic activities for 1939-40 went to George Gray and Jack Hofcn who participated in both the State and National Forensic League Contests. George Gray won Allegheny County Sectional Championship in Shakespearian Reading in the Pennsylvania State Forensic League and participated in the State finals in the National League. Jack Hofen won the sectional, county, and district championships in declamation in the Pennsylvania State League, and he also participated in the State finals of the National League. These places of honor were won by both boys after competing with many of the leading high schools of the County and the State. PUBLIC SPEAKING CLUB To enable students to express thoughts clearly and in a convincing manner and to speak before the public is the principal value of the Public Speaking Club, one of the most active groups in the extra-curricular fields of the present year. The club, under the able direction of Mr. Elkins and Miss Rush, has completed one of its most successful years. The club is a member of the Forensic League, and has matched wits with McKeesport, Glassport, Elizabeth, and Wil-merding. In a new activity, the Student Congress, which was held at California State Teachers’ College, several members of the club took part. Even though the club will lose its seniors, namely: Jack Hofcn, Ann Lcbedda, Doris Klein, Ray Mulligan, Tom Perkins, and M. Louise Siedlarz, Mr. Elkins is looking forward to another successful year of debating. The officers of the club are Ann Lcbedda, Jack Hofen, and Doris Klein. HOME ECONOMICS CLUB To help keep the sewing and cooking classes together is the primary purpose of the Home Economics Club. In the way of help and service, the organization offers to the students different ways and means of modeling, making their own clothes, and cooking foods. During the school year various parties were held for the different holidays of the seasons and proved to be very successful. Many times the meetings were mainly of a social nature. Other activities of the club consisted of very interesting talks presented by the members, relative to home economics in other parts of the world. This year, under the capable supervision of Miss Newell and Miss Cox, the Home F'conomics Club has made rapid progress, in all the activities mentioned. Officers of the club arc Mary Jane Willis, Gertrude Satala, Ann Kondis, and Marion Krcll. PUBLIC SPEAKING CLUB Front Row: Left to Right. M. Harvey, L. A. Laird, S. Glick, F. Stahlberg, A.
