SCIENCE CLUB President Neill Bridgestock Vice-president Robert Ackeberg Secretary-treasurer Geneva Presnell Adviser Miss Smith A new club was formed this year by Miss Smith for students with scientific inclinations. It is affiliated with the American Institute of Science and Engineering Clubs, and holds certificate No. 370 of that organization. The purpose of the club is to increase the members' knowl- edge of science, to study the achievements of some of the famous scientists, and to develop an appreciation of sci- ence in our daily lives. Since the time the club was organized, there have been studies made in astronomy, demonstrations about some of the physical phenomena of the world, and some science quiz sessions. This spring the twenty-three members expect to visit some of the local scientific points of interest. GLEE CLUB The glee club, now under the direction of Mr. Olm- stead, is one of the oldest organizations in our school. The purpose of this group is to cultivate a deeper appre- ciation of worthwhile music, and to train members to sing harmony parts. ' There are three divisions of this organization, name- ly, a girls' chorus, a boys' chorus, and a mixed chorus of twenty members. Each of these divisions meets once a week. In former years, the glee club has competed in numer- ous Two-Rivers Conference music contests, comparing very favorably with glee clubs of other high schools in.the conference. This year the singers appeared at both Two- Rivers Conference dramatic and music festivals held at Prophetstown. Their last public appearance of the year will be at the commencement exercises in May. llfikivlvkiklkfklklk Miss Smith: Nwhat insect requires the least nour- ishment?N Neill Bridgestock: WThe moth, because it eats holes.N
