G. A. A. Girls interested in sports made up the GIRLS’ Athletic Association. They not only at- tended and supported the boys’ games, but also were active among themselves in basketball, volleyball, baseball, bowling, riding, ping pong and other such activities. At their annual ban- quet the qualified girls were presented with letters. They also held a three-day camping trip under the direction of Miss Kuhlenkamp. SERVICE CLUB This year, as in the past, the SERVICE CLUB has been under the direction of Miss Robbins. Students were stationed at various points throughout the halls where they had supervision over between-class traffic and also assisted visit- ors in any way possible. In addition, they aided the Student Council in carrying out experi- mental hall plans for before school and at noon.

VARSITY BAND The P. H. H. S. Varsity Band, consisting of approximately eighty members, appeared a t many outside functions in addition to their regular appearances at basketball and football games, and the weekly assemblies. Among these activities were the Armistice Day and Edison Day parades; their annual Concert held Decem- ber 10: the St. Clair County Teachers’ Insti- tute; the Michigan State Fair, where they won a trophy, and at the St. Clair County Music Festival. CADET BAND Thirty-two members made up this year’s CADET Band. None of the pupils who enrolled in this band in September, 1939, were able to play but they have made quite rapid advance- ment and have finished enough material so that the more advanced of them will be used in the Varsity Band to replace some of the Varsity members who graduated. Mr. E. E. Straffon instructed and directed the group.

RADIO GUILD Not to be confused with the Radio Club is the Radio Guild of P. H. H. S., which was under the sponsorship of Miss Warren. This organization was formed to learn more about radio scripts and the presentation of them. RIFLE CLUB The Rifle Club was divided into two groups of boys. Once a week each group met in the Armory to practice the correct handling and firing of rifles under different conditions. Mr. Ohmer and Lieut. Robinson were the boys’ advisers. TRAFFIC CLUB These boys in the TRAFFIC CLUB were in charge of controlling traffic for the convenience of the students going to and from the weekly assemblies in the gym. The club was under the direction of Mr. Montgomery. CHEERLEADERS The CHEERLEADERS this year were made up of six members, three boys and three girls. They met every Tuesday in the P. H. room at the gym where they practiced new cheers which they presented at the games and assemblies.
