LATIN CLUB STUDENT COUNCIL The STUULNT COUNCIL was made up of three me m bees from each class. They worked together to bring about improvements in the school. This year’s major problem has been to find a suitable solution for the hall situation caused by irregular class periods. DRAMATICS CLUB Under the direction of Mr. Frederick Dens- more, the members of the DRAMATICS CLUB presented skits and plays for the amusement of the student body. They also assisted in the preparation and presentation of the senior plays. The purpose of the LATIN CLUB is to help make Latin more interesting to the students. But they also enjoyed themselves, as is shown by the Christmas Party which they planned in 1939. Miss Eichhorn is club adviser. BIOLOGY CLUB This year the BIOLOGY CLUB under Miss Rowe ' s direction has carried on a very interest- ing program. A few of their many activities included biological projects of all types: such as. microbe projectors, ant palaces and the collection of specimens.

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.
