Hi-Y Serves School And Community Every other Wednesday night the Hi-Y met at the central YMCA. At each meeting the members were both entertained and informed by programs satisfying widely varied interests. Some of these included discussions on the new community hospital, the history of Roanoke, and the circus. ln addition the boys were allowed to use YMCA recreational facilities such as the swimming pool, gymnasium equip- ment, and weight sets. The Hi-Y being primarily a serv- ice organization, assisted both the school and community in all en- deavors. Parking cars at Victory Stadium before each home foot- ball game was the first order of service for this year's Hi-Y'ers. Next the members entertained many under-privileged children at a Thanksgiving dinner. During the Christmas season the boys acted as clowns in the city Christmas Parade and delivered Christmas baskets which were prepared by each Patrick Henry homeroom. A rummage sale was conducted later in the year and all proceeds were donated to the Patrick Henry Field House Fund. The Hi-Y was also in charge of Easter Services as well as the blessing for each lunch period. ln concluding the year, i963-64 officers were elected and installed at a picnic in Fishburn Park.

Before Christmas the Choir filled the halls with carols and participated in the Christmas assembly. Other performances during the season included programs for Roanoke Memorial Rehabilitation Center, Kiwanis Club, Rotary Club, Cross- roads Mall, and television shows on WDBJ and WSLS. A clinic was held at Northside High School on March 30th. Mr. Gilbert Schroff, the critic, gave helpful suggestions and complimented the Choir on its performance. At Easter the Choir participated in an exchange of concerts with Addison High. For the sunrise service at Natural Bridge, the combined choirs of Jefferson, William Fleming and Patrick Henry performed for thousands of worshippers.
