The snapshot of this club will be found at the bottom of the following page and is labeled brain-trust The article, by all rights, should have been cut to about 40 words and included with the write-ups of the other clubs that didn't have pic- tures taken, but Marjorie Craney had so cleverly written it that it was placed separately on this page in uncut form.-EDITOR. Math Club MATH Club tryouts, huh? I viewed the collection of individuals in room ZP with dismay. I had hoped for a studious and mathematical looking group but these students actually appeared pleasant. I was about to leave in disgust when it oc- curred to me that I was witnessing a most amazing phenomenon. If my eyes did not deceive me, these fellows were really enjoying the test problems administered by President james Cole. Yea, the adviser, Miss Beryl Holt, and the vice president, Marjorie Craney, were also deriving pleasure from the tortuous quiz. This Math society would indeed bear watching! After that amazing encounter I followed its activities with diligence. Those youngsters certainly got around! They inspected the blue prints for the new high school, visited the City Ice Plant, were entertained by some excellent speakers, and they even indulged in a party. The party was a scavenger hunt. CI-Iere I was almost used to their doings, and they sprang that on me! I-Iowever I rallied to the situati0n.D On Friday night, March oth, I skulked around james 'Cole's house where the scavengers were to gather. just as I was about to go to sleep beneath the porch steps I heard a terrible commotion. Yelling maniacs were coming from all directions dragging loads of trash. I listened to one of the fiends review his list. I,essee, I've got all those things, bureau drawer, frying pan, buggy wheel, etc., but dag nab it, I can't find three dead flies ......... Here I croaked a feeble Ohmygosh and passed quietly out of the picture. 104

HARRIETT CooNs On the job at DON Btmsoeu. Song Leader Corvallis game Yell Leader Song and Yell Leaders HARRIETT CooNs, the ASB. song leader, concentrated her efforts towards retaining the disappearing spirit of the students. I-ler interest in leading the songs was noticeable compared to previous years. She was partly responsible for the over- whelming success of the junior song in the Song and Yell contest. Donald Blaisdell, w'ith the assistance of the former ASB, yell leader, Lester Carter, helped the students put their enthusiasm during the football and basket- ball games into stimulating organized cheering. lil?
