Physics Club Helps Students Gain Extra Scientific Knowledge Perhaps one of the more scientific extra- curricular clubs in our school meets weekly in Mr. Collins room, 417. It is, of course The Physics Club. A committee, rather than officers, governs the meetings. It is com- posed of: Wally Dutkowski, Tom Hilde- brant, Shan Marlette, Carol Hresko and Carolyn Burton. In their weekly sessions- they do special experiments, demonstrate more complex physical laws and just plain have fun. Also, planned field trips take them out of the classroom. Scheduled for the 66-67 school year were trips to U. of M., Ann Arbor; and MSU, East Lansing where they viewed the engineering and physics de- partments. On a trip to Flint ' s Junior Col- lege they again studied physics facilities.

Tradition Through Innovation In the past three years, Northwest- ern Wildcats have started many tra- ditions with their extracurricular clubs and organizations. These groups help tradition grow, while the members acquaint themselves with a career they may like to pursue or simply have a good time. As traditions develop the underclass- men will come to know and follow them. Every year newly organized clubs begin customs that will con- tribute to the cultural atmosphere, the tradition of the school. 125

Lettermen Organize, Begin New Activities Lettermen Bob Rickard, and Larry Rettenmund, right, relax after three hectic lunch periods of selling malts to the student body. The Northwestern Wildcat Lettermen ' s Club made valuable contributions to school activities during the year. The Lettermen turned out in mass numbers to usher home basketball games and check the coats of those attending the games. Mr. James Fowler was successful in orga- nizing and channeling the enthusiasm of the athletes. In March the club sponsored a basket- ball game between the Men ' s faculty and the members of the Lettermen ' s Club. Also involved in play were the Varsity Cheerleaders vs the Women ' s faculty. At halftime a wrestling match and a jazz band provided humorous entertainment. Mr. James Fowler is the director of the Letter- men ' s Club.
