l ZWU HRQH W PROGRESS NOTHER year has been added to Polytechnic history. Polytechnic stands stronger today than it did a year ago We are not over proud that we have advanced, for time without progfess is waste. We are elated, however over the fact that our advancement has been varied over broad lines, and for the good of both student ' I I body .lnii school. The Associated Student Body Organizations of the past two terms have been unusually active ones. They have been thorough and have accomplished much that has been of great benefit. Early in the year the complex task of revising the constitution of every organization in the school was assumed. The new or revised constitutions are sane ones. The memberships of many organizations were reduced in a number of instances to one half the usual number. This made possible better organization, more thorough work, and abler control. But the A. S.

We cannot fail to note the progress and changes that have taken place in athletics. Interscholastic sports have again been carried on after nearly three years of inter-class activities. We ventured from inter-school athletics to better .the sport. The reasons were three fold: to make championships incidental and not the primary factor of com- petition: to place active competition within the reach of the majority of the athletes in the school: and lastly, to get away from the conditions under which a picked team received almost the entire attention of the athletic instructors and coach. We ventured from inter-class athletics to put Polytechnic on a basis with the other high schools of the city. The student body clamored to be put on an equal plane. Our return was simultaneous with the betterment of high school competition throughout the city. Profes-
