No one is barred admission-any girl may ioin. Mrs. Bar- bara Summers sponsors the iunior-senior group and Miss June Beamer the freshman-sophomore group. Purpose of this Christian organization is: To build a fellowship of women and girls devoted to the task of realizing in our common life those ideals of personal and social living to which we are com- mitted by our faith as Christians. In this endeavor we seek to understand Jesus, to share His love for all people and to grow in the knowledge and love of God. Several worthwhile proiects are carried out each year by the Y-Teens. This year at Christmas, all mem- bers collected canned goods and baskets were sent to many needy families in this area. A dance was also sponsored by the club. Each and every group has to have its leaders. President of the iunior-senior group is Lula Wiblin. Other officers are Margie Champe, secretary, Bren- da Young, treasurer, Belle Rader, sergeant-at-arms. President of the freshman-sophomore group is Mary Ann Summers, with Sue Withrow serving as vice-president, Lou Withrow, secretary, Mary Jo Brown, treasurer, Ruth Morris, sergeant-at-arms, and Patricia P'Simer, reporter. -

The Social Committee, com- posed of two members from each of the three upper classes, decides whether we should have a party, dance, or a picnic, or whether we should not. Their iob is to see that each social activity is properly chap- eroned and a responsible clean- up committee is on hand after it is over. Each member must have his name on the activity sheet and the sheet must be in the office at least two days prior to the social affair. The Guidance Council chooses members at the end of their freshman year. Any student is eligible that maintains good grades and 3 good Characler- Carole Keenan, Karen Dotson.

But many people, who have no Christian faith or pro- fession at all, feel something of the same thing. Strictly a boy's organization, the Hi-Y club is concerned with the promotion of Christian fellow- ship. It tries to educate the boys to a better Chris- tian life, to help them be better citizens of their community and country. The Hi-Y strives to create a better and more usual development of the mind, body, and spirit against a solid background for its members. The club does much to promote fellowship among the boys and is similar in purpose to the Y-Teens, which is the Christian club for the girls. The good fellowship among the Hi-Y members helps to build good, successful character and personality, it helps them to know about the cultural, racial, and re- ligious ideas of our society and to understand them better. Sponsor of this group is Dexter Dotson. Officers are Gary Wilson, president, Dyer Herold, vice- presidentg Raymond McCutcheon, secretary-treas- urer, Walter Rogers, chaplain.
