5. t , Q Imaginative Writing by an enthusiastic staff of some thirty student journalists combined with conscientious organization by Editor Carol Dill and Co-Editor Bunny Griffith to make this year's Quaker Quill, our high school newspaper, more Widely read and more successful than ever. Posting assignment sheets, collecting and rewriting articles, and assembling each Quill issue for The Herald kept Carol and Bunny quite busy every week. Their diligent staff cooperated to the fullest degree to create a highly original, readable, enjoyable Weekly. Among this year's most popular regular features were Dear Quincy, the perennial problem- solver, and Can You Imagine? Miss Harlan served again as the Quill's faculty guiding light.

With over seventy members the World Affairs Club was once again one of the most popu- lar activities at Quaker Valley. This year, with Mr. Simpson as sponsor, the club engaged in a diversity of activities to help its members better understand other peoples and nations. Representing the United States, Nicaragua, Colombia, Yemen, and Niger, about one-third of the members participated in the january and March sessions of the annual Student United Nations in Pittsburgh. In addition, the club sponsored two Local United Nations assem- blies. In December it invited students from Sacred Heart to a mock ECOSOC assembly. In February Quaker Valley hosted delegates from Ambridge, Coraopolis, Moon, and Montour for a General Assembly L.U.N. But not all the World Affairs Club's activities involved the U.N. The members aided the annual A.F.S. musical in a variety of Ways. In the spring they held their annual A.F.S. Day, on which foreign exchange students from other local schools visited Q.V.H.S. and spoke about their native countries. At regular meetings the club undertook several special projects, including the redivision of the globe into new political units. WORLD AFFAIRS CLUB EXECUTIVE BOARD: R. Ramsey, A.F.S.g N.
