CAMERA CLUB The Camera Club came about in a discussion on how to improve our school in Miss Hartmanrrs social studies class. Peter Edel mentioned it as a good extra-curricular activity, and then the class proceeded with the formation of such a club. At the hrst meeting, Peter was elected presidentg Peter Camp, vice president, and Virginia Rossini, secretary. Miss Boland and Miss Hartmann are the Clubs sponsors. The thirty members of the Club are planning a Photography contest. Their greatest hope is to obtain a dark room in some empty corner of the school. HOME ECONOMICS Tuesdays and Thursdays are the regular meeting days for this all sewing, all-girl activity. There is no definitely planned schedule of work for the girls to complete, as Mrs. Nash feels that the girls all know their own needs best. At Christmas time the Home Economic Room was all a flutter with Christmas gaiety, for at that time the gals were very busy making presents, with most of the ideas coming from Mrs. Nash, who seems to have no end of good suggestions up her sleeve. Various accessories from slippers to hats are put together here, and we must admit they are pretty sharp. D. Scott, P. Paris, B. Scott, B Casey, J. McCarthy, E. Waite Carroll, H. Keeler, J.

LIBRARY The group includes student librarians and the Library Service Club. The librarians have charge of stamping books to be taken out, and all the books that are brought back to the library. If a book is overdue, it is the job of the librarian to notify the holder of the book and have it returned. Most books in the library may be taken out for a period of two weeks. The librarians see that returned books are replaced on the shelves. They also keep the magazine rack in order. The Service Club members have one period a week for work, but some energetic students work three and four periods. This group accessions new books, mounts book jackets for display, and makes shelf list. There is a book-binding department which in- cludes sewing, taping, binding, and facing of old books. Under the supervision of Miss Moore and Mr. Zandri, some of the older girls type catalogue cards. ' Since this group was organized, it, and some untiring faculty members, have done a grand job of improving our library. Standing: J. Dioquardi, M. Fischer, N. Tower, J. Zandri, A. Frulla, F.

Sophie Hudiak as the villianess, ex-chorus girl Bess in reality, planted the oil herself, in order to sell her interest in the farm. The audience was given a surprise when a real automobile Ccourtesy of Miss Geraldine Farrarl was driven onto the stage by Bobby Smith, and a few were tempted to join the actors when the inviting smell of cooking hamburgers floated our over the foot- lights. Perhaps the most fun was seeing those campers arrayed in pajamas, dividing their camp site into separate sleeping quarters, then struggling with sleeping bags and bugs. But like such stories these things are only secondaryg a woman's business is not teal estate, and love triumphs.
