Euclidean The Euclidean Club, under the able guidance of Miss Luccock and Mr. Vvylllilll, has had a very successful year. The officers for the first term were president, Bernice Finleyg vice- president, Ruth Herrmanng secretary, Doris Hicks, student council repre- sentative, Helen Humphrey. For the second term the officers chosen were president, Clarence Alban: vice-president, -lean Hegwoodg secretary, Helen Baldwin: student council representative, Ruth Hermann. The September initiation was placed in the hands of Elizabeth Downie and proved to be a 'fwild and woolly affair. Prospective members were blindfolded and led through the halls. Arriving at their destination they were subjected to every conceivable torture, from eating raw oysters to receiving electric shocks. This mock initiation was followed by a solemn ceremony which included pledging allegiance before a lighted candle, accord- ing to Ye Ancient Euclidean Custom. The Christmas season found the club delivering baskets of food to sev- eral poor families found by Miss Luccock, The members felt well paid for this work, as their efforts were very much appreciated. . The new term saw the club well under way with -plans for a member- ship campaign. Students receiving :X or B in Geometry ill, 1-25, or LKSJ were sent invitations to join, and plans for initiation were forthcoming. Due to the severe illness of Miss Luccock the work of the club was set back for a time but when she returned the wheels were again set in motion and plans were made for the summer initiation, the spring hike, and a checker tournament.
