HI-Y It is Tuesday night and the clan is gathering. A little horse-play in one corner, and a bull session in another slow down and come to a halt as the last ones come in. Then the meeting begins. Gentlemen, we have tonight as guest speaker Mr. ootssosso os..s..,o.,ss - Thus it is that President Steve Erwin conducts a typical I-li-Y meeting at the Quincy Y.M.C.A. Or, perhaps there is no guest speaker: in this case, there might be a group dis- cussion among the boys concerning one of the topics sug- gested by the sponsoring institution. Then. sometimes, these Junior and Senior boys from North meet jointly with a similar group from a neighboring high school. And just think-no girls allowed! What? You think the boys might miss the girls? Well, I guess they do a little, for along with the rights, privileges. and obvious advantages of being a stag club, the boys have found a way to eliminate the disadvantages. Occasional joint meetings with North's Tri-Hi-Y are looked forward to, of course, like summer vacations. Even better, though. are the annual dances. A TRI-HI-Y Early last September, if you saw a group of girls wander- ing around school with thoughtful. perplexed expressions on their faces, you could probably tell that those girls were thinking up various stunts for the initiation of the poor new Tri-Hi-Y members. The initiation, however, wasn't so bad as it sounded, and it surely started off a memorable year of good times for the girls. The purpose of this organization is to establish a better soul, mind, and body in each girl: consequently, all the girls' activities and fun are based on this triangle. That fun can be mixed with education the girls found out through listening to Shirley Cain's exciting talk on her unique visit to Paris, and seeing timely movies at almost every meeting. For pure fun, these lucky girls arranged most enjoyable record hops with the Hi-Y's of both high schools. a splash party which, though held in early, cold March, held plenty of fun for everyone, and an Alumni meeting which gave the past Tri-Hi-Y members a chance to see how this younger generation was carrying on for them. Away from home, six of the forty-five loyal members tramped to the Reading Convention for Tri-Hi-Y's. But. from the remarks that were heard, the trip was well worth it, because nothing could touch the fun they all had there. Largely responsible for this entertaining years are these: Advisor, Mary Sherriff Sponsor, Miss Sawitsky President, Rita Marocco Vice-President, Peggy Ann Butler Secretary, Elsie Hannon Treasurer, Patricia Holler J V ,tv
