ARCI-IERY CLUB Who is it that I see yonder there with bow and arrow? Pray tell, is it William Tell or Robin Hood? No, it's just a member of Pulaski's Archery Club sponsored by Coach Weilgosz. The club meets eighth hour once a week. and because of the large enrollment, Wednesday evenings. It's open to both boys and girls. When the weather permits, they set up their targets be- hind school and practice there. During the year the club went to Madison to compete against other enthusiasts. In the future Pulaski expects to have an official archery team. With this thought in mind Coach Wielgosz cordially invites anyone who has the interest and necessary equipment to join the club next semester. AUDIO VISUAL CLUB The Audio Visual Club is made up of boys working with the P.A. system and the movie projectors. When a boy joins either the P.A. or Projection crew, he automatically becomes a member of the club. The object of the club is to ac- quaint the boys with the operation of the different pieces of equipment. This insures eificient operation of all school equipment. The members of this club are always working behind the scenes during morning announcements and noon hour movies. imma tnrnrxaw 5 4 l'4f14:iri'1.az1. fx ii M1

CLUBS AT WORK CAMERA CRAFT Students interested in photography are eligible to join the Camera Craft Club, meeting Thursdays under the direction of Miss Ruth Manion. One Thursday the entire group meets: the next week a small group works in the dark room. The club is designed to instruct the beginner in the fundamentals of pho- tography. In the recent club election Ierome Szymanski was elected president, Iames F. Pasterski vice-president, and Ioy Shanks secretary-treasurer. Members of the club are learning the fundamentals of pic- ture-taking, developing, printing, and enlarging. In the near future plans are being made to enter numerous contests in which members will prepare their own prints up to the final step of mounting. HOME ECONOMICS The main objective of the Home Economics Club, under the direction of Miss Marie Poundstone, is to keep well informed on the newest ideas in Home Economics. During the first semester of the year the club is very busy working on its biggest project - their Christmas Sale. The proceeds of this sale are used to purchase equipment for the department. Some of the other projects which the club has undertaken this year are the annual Mothers' Day Tea and making scrapbooks for the Children's Hospital. The club also engages many well-known speakers who dwell on subjects which are of interest to the members. HOME NURSING The Home Nursing Club is sponsored and paid for by the Red Cross. This club, under the supervision of Mrs. Lewis, meets in two groups. The first group meets on a Tuesday. and the second meets on a Thursday. The semester consists of two courses. The first course is: Home Care of Sick. and the second course is: Mother and Baby Care and Family Health. After completing the two courses each member receives a certificate from each course. The club's main objectives are: 1. Personal Readiness to Meet Every Day Problems : 2. When Sickness Invades the Home : and 3. Understanding Child Growth and Development. Miss Mohr heads this club. LIFE SAVING In order to improve their technique and knowledge of life saving and swimming, the energetic swimmers of the Life Saving Club have been working hard Tuesdays during the eighth hour. Some of the fundamentals learned in this course are breaks. carries, and approaches. All these are necessary to be fit for life guard duty. There are about sixty boys taking this course, most of whom will be life guards this summer. The Life Saving Club was started about four years ago and has helped many a boy get a good job during the summer months. Any boy with a little swimming ability, and who is willing to work, is welcome to join the club. RADIO The Radio Club is a very excellent organization for boys who are interested in it. Students who have spare time and like radio work and code - which is needed in jobs like radio operators for the police department or army - hear radio construction talks and movies on similar activities. You may find that many boys that were members of this Club at Pulaski High are now using this experience in earning a living. Mr. George Winkler is the sponsor of the Radio Club. STAGE CRAFT When the time comes to hand out bouquets, let the unsung heroes behind the scenes - our stage crew - be first in line. It is they. who, in the final analysis. are responsible for a successful production. In their hands rest the failure or success of the Spring Concert, class plays. noon hour entertainments, and special auditorium programs familiar to everyone. On the job all the time. they insure a smooth running, precisely ex- ecuted program. The backstage boys perform their duties silently and efficiently, always eager to please. Such service is always appreciated when time is precious. Take a bow, boys - you really deserve it. STRING QUARTETTE The String Quartette is composed of studengsfgvsrith consider- able musical experience. The purpose of the organization is to familiarize the students with string music for a quartette which is not played in the orchestra. The four who participated are Marilyn Stein, cello: Rita Korpal, viola: Darlene Krause, violin: and Iohn Marsh, violin. The group is directed by Mr. Niefer. These students specialize in the works of Haydn, Mo- zart, and Beethoven. This type of music is a distinct form differ- ing from the orchestral type. It opens a new field and demands exceptional skill from each one respectively on his own part. The group plays for noon hour programs and activities outside of school as well.

BLUE MASK CLUB For those Pulaskians with a feeling for Drama the Blue Mask Club has been or- ganized under the direction of Miss Pearl Richards. Dramatic talent is kept alive by this club for advanced speech students who have proved their dramatic ability and have mastered 12B Speech techniques until they achieve as much perfection as is possible for amateurs. The Blue Mask is one of the oldest or- ganizations at Pulaski having been organ- ized way back in the barrack days where Pulaski dramatic facilities consisted of only the dramatic teachers and the students interested in the stage. From the group many popular and well known amateurs and professional actors have been devel- oped under the professional guidance of Miss Richards. Second Row: Henry Kowaleski, Robert Banach.
