The assembling of one hundred and sixteen girls dressed in their navy blue skirts and sweaters and white V-neck blouses, made the northwest corner an eye-catching spectacle. Comments have come to us from neighboring towns as to the impression the uniformly-clad organization has made upon the visitors to the Pana gym. So impressive was this that other towns, too, are trying to organize similar groups. ln fact, the club is proud to have an organization styled after it in Kemrnerer, Wyoming, PA THER CLUB The key to the success ot the organization is student government. When a member does not live up to the requirements, she is suspended from the club. The requirements are simple, but they apply to alleuniforms must be worn at all basketball games and only three unexcused absences are allowed. Two tardy arrivals count as an absence. The head Panthers were: Marilyn Maulding, President, Carolyn Byan, Vice-President, Ruth Anne Bond, Secretary, Barbara Christner, Treasurer, and Mrs. Prater, Sponsor, The Panther Club has two aimsetirst and foremost, good sportsmanship at all times, one of the intangibles on which all sports are justified in the educational system.

DIVERSIFIED OCCUPATIONS This program, sponsored by the State Department of Education, began its second year at Pana with nineteen boys, four returning from last year. To be able to participate in this program, a boy must be at least a junior and sixteen years of age. The fact that these boys work at different places of industry does not mean that they do not attend school. Their schedule is different, however, for they attend school in the morning and work in the afternoon. Subjects included in their schedule are two required ones and another, D. O. Related, pertaining to the specific job at which they Work. The purpose of this group is to learn a trade and to earn money While attending school. Occupations represented are: florist, meat cutter, presser and cleaner, farm machinery maintenance, printer, heating and Ventilating, and automotive machinist. Under the guidance of Mr. Yonker, Pana is one of twenty-six schools in Illinois having this program. This year he inaugurated a D. O. Savings Club in which all boys are encouraged to save systematically. The local group is the only one in the state having such a club. First Row: Mr. Yonker, B. Musser, B. Klee, W. Hish, A.
