Group lll Club Carnival COLGR! Noise! Excitement! All were a part of the gala affair at Salem high last March 29th. This event was the Group Ill club Carnival of course-that gay entertainment at which everyone had such a good time! Remember how the ballyhoo, the rattle of the cowbells, and smell of the popcorn were all so convincingly carnival-like that no-one could help but get into the spirit of the occasion? The concessions were varied and numerous. At the head of the stairs in front of the library was a noisy, busy corner where all prospective carpenters might try to pound a nail into the board with four strokes. Lets see, this was put on by the Model Making club, wasn't it? One couldn't stay too long, however, because of the shouts in his left ear made by the high-powered speeler of the Photography club. He was making known the fact that one might be photographed right here for only five cents. This unusual concession was really more successful than was expected, as the pictures, despite the dark background, at least showed the subjects. Oh, how popular was that l-louse of Horror in ZF. The Radio club had equipped it with countless terrors and surprises, and its depths were forever ringing with the horrified screams of those who ventured in. The survivors were allowed a slight-very slight-peek at Eugene the Jeep as a reward. The scent of fresh popcorn, though, was sure to lure the funseekers across the hall and into ZL where they would find not only a popcorn stand-but a minia- ture carnival, in which the Knitting club sponsored a fishpond, a fortune teller, and a kissing booth--for boys only. Of course, girls never get such oportunities! A few steps into ZG, and one might be carried into a land of insects and small animals, with the aid of the Small Life club's excellent movies. I-lere several in- teresting filrrs on insectivorous plants, ants, hornets, and chameleons were shown. A little dash around the corner into ZN, and one might be transported into an- other land-this time one of movies and movie stars. Here the Movie club presented a scene during the filming of a Schooldays picture with cameras, a director, and the stars. The third fioor, too, was full of excitement and activity.. At the head of the stairs in 3G the Eta club sponsored a beauty shop where manicures and facials were given. Right next door the 4B Dramatic club presented Little Theater Off All the Time in which one might enjoy a few minutes of clever comedy in the play, Marriages Arranged . Oh, and across the hall was a very popular conces- sion-the hot dog stand, sponsored by the Student-Faculty club committee. What carnival would be complete without one! Remember how the noise got louder as you neared the gym? This was the center of the carnival, but before one could enter, he was usually enticed by the various games sponsored by the Airplane club or by the Cartoon clubs' Crazy I-louse in which a ghost led all victims through the pitch black tomb of a dead professor who insisted upon leaving things in the wrong places. And now the gym! What a lively place it was-seething with activity and burst- ing with color! Over in one corner was the Civics club's Spill the Milk , where countless students attempted to tip over some milk bottles by throwing a base-ball, and in the next corner was a shooting gallery, especially popular with the boys, presented by the Cvun club. Along the back a fortune teller's booth was curtained off, and right next to it the Fishing club had erected a unique fishpond. The Stamp club's Ring the Peg and Book Lovers' club's Break the Balloon covered the South end. The latter gave tickets to the balloon breakers which entitled them to a chance in the drawing at ten o'clock . The prize was I-laliburtons Glorious Adventure. ' ' From here one might go to the balcony to try his skill at archery or around the corner into 3E to the jitney dance presented by the Entertainment club. And for the musical there was the Junior Crescendo's clever Minstrel Show in the as- sembly. 68

Mask and Dagger Dramatic Society THE lX4ask and Dagger, at present one of the many Group lll clubs, has so flourished and grown that it plans to break away from the group next year to form what might be called a beginners Snikpoh Society , with regular club pins and tryouts for membership. The officers chosen for this year were Shirlee McCain, presidentg Margaret Siegmund, vice president, Helen Smith, secretary, while Mr. Ramsdell of Willamette acted as adviser. The meetings are given over to the acquiring of more perfect acting ability. To do this, the members often read aloud selections from plays to develop clearer pronunciation, or practice stage entrance and gestures. At other times certain mem- bers present short entertainments for the group. During the school year the Mask and Dagger gave two small invitational plays and a longer comedy, Eether or Eyetherf' The latter was presented in the as- sembly for a small charge and the club made fifteen dollars proht. A party for the cast will be given on May 22nd. The name, Mask and Dagger, was suggested by Shirlee McCain. Group Ill Clubs Then there is the Travel club given over to the discussion of interesting places one might see when traveling. And speaking of travel, another group of students chose to do it by air and an Airplane club was formed. Along the line of sports are the Fencing and Archery clubs, where interested students may become skilled in the technique of these pastimes. Some preferred fishing as a sport, however, and the Fishing club found its origin. Here prospective anglers discover how to lure a fish, or to dangle a pole with skill. With knitting so popular, of course there would be a Knitting club for the girls. The meetings are largely social, where the girls are given time for their knitting and those who can't knit are able to learn from the others. The energetic organization, the journalism club, has undertaken the task of editing next year's S book. ln the Radio club forms of broadcasts and repair are studied, members of the Booklovers club read and discuss interesting booksg there is a Chess club to sharpen the wits of its members: and a Small Life club in which students can realize the wonders of natureg and finally there are the very popular Etiquette clubs to teach their members the secrets of social grace. 07
