' Uaew PERHAPS SOME of us have wondered who those girls are that we see helping teach- ers in a diversity of jobs. Well, to begin with, they are members of the Beta Club organized at Ponce in the spring of l946. Since it is a national service club, its members are chosen on the basis of de- pendability, service, and an average of at least L'C.'7 Nominees are selected by standing members and the faculty and then submitted for the vote of the club. Have you ever tried to play basketball when you were in doubt as to Who was on your team? Thatis what the girls' freshman basketball team would have done if it had not been for the effort of the Beta Club to provide them with the necessary pinneys. Over two hundred hours have been given by the Beta Club members toward helping the teachers. They've done such jobs as alphabetical arrangement of names, preparation of the grade books, typing, and grading papers. Witll Miss Ethlyn Massey as their spon- sor, the .Beta Club made plans to staff Mrs. Archer's and the finance offices. +MILDRED GARCIA

Along with the hoariness that gradually over- came the members, came the Medalist Rating from Columbia University and the All-American from the University of Minnesota. The Miarrii High Times and the Tribune are the only two high school papers in Florida that have attained both awards. -YIVIILDRED GARCIA Seated above, left to right: Bowers, school life, Marks, girls' sports, Fitzgerald, adver- tising, Business Manager Strausburger: Associate Editor Nay, faculty, Associate Editor Garcia, clubs and organizations, Editor-in-Chief Roesch, introduetoryg Art Co-Editors Bowyer and Woodmanseeg May, advertising, Lesh, advertising, standing: Watkins, art staff, McGee, boys, sportsg Hertz, boys' sports: Allen, art, Bentz, photography, Olson, seniorsg Kingston, advertising, Ramsay, art, Irwin, photo- graphyg Adviser Mrs. Helen Evans, White, girls' sports: Barton, seniors, Bollinger, art, Hardeman, artg Mt-Intyre, art, Douglas, advertisingg Degnan, photographyg Gould, advertising.

'ce HELLO, MOM. CAN I take the car this afternoonfw Haven't you found the telephone which has been installed in the A Building a great benefaction? Thanks to our Hi-Y boys! Here We have a national organization founded at Ponce in 1937. This group is sponsored by Mr. Elmer Day, dean of boys, and Mr. Bob Barrett of the Coral Gables Y.lVl.C.A. To become a member it is necessary to file an applica- tion and be interviewed by the membership committee, the prime requirement is a sincere belief in the principles of the Hi-Y Club--clean spech, clean sports, clean scholar- ship, and clean living. If you're looking for an address, home room, or tele- phone number, youall find the correct one in that help- ful, time-saving Student Directory sold every year by the Hi-Y boys. Another of their major duties is that of the supply store in Mr. Day's office. Here you may purchase any of the supplies needed for school Work. The Hi-Y Club meetings are held the first and third Wvednesdays of every month at the Coral Gables Metho- dist Church. --NIILDRED GARCIA Left to right, first row: Adviser Mr. Elmer Day, Chaplain Tom- linson, Vice-President Pippinger, President Wlilliams, Secretary Shepard, Treasurer Carnphell: seconzl row: Bowers.
