To carry out this purpose they plan to sponsor a Liet Erikson program during the coming year. They are also planning a declamatory contest. During the past year the Norse Club has accomplished many worth while projects, such as selling caps tor Home- coming and sponsoring movies. One ot the important events each year is the Swedish-Norse basketball game. For the past tour years, the Swedes have won: so the Scandinavian dolls, Olat and Martha, have been in the possession ot the Swedish Club. The Norse men have very tirmly resolved, however, not to let this game be won by the Swedes next year. The members ot the club have, like- wise, sold buttons admitting spectators to the tair grounds to see the Crown Prince and the Princess ot Norway, who will be in Minneapolis in June. The otticers ot the club are t-loward Olson, president: Richard Alm, vice- president, l-lazel Niols, secretary: Clar- ice Ekse, treasurer, and Harold Olson, sergeant-at-anns. l-lelseth, Takvarn, Borgen, Lee, D.

Pilots Usher at Premier Performance The organization ot the Pilots was tounded in l927 under the leadership ot Sheldon Ostroot and David Plett. Mr. Schultz has been the adviser ot the club from the beginning. Although it is the wish ot many to become a member ot this time organization, membership in the Pilots is very limited. Six IZA boys and girls, tive l2B boys and girls, tour l lA boys and girls, and three llB boys and girls, making a total ot thirty-six members. Each member must be elec- ted into the organization. Although the club has many enjoy- able social activities, it is primarily in- terested in the service it can render to the school. Betore the prospective members are voted upon, tive detinite pledges are read to them, so that they E263 may lcnow exactly what is expected and required ot them. At the initiation these pledges are signed by the new mem- bers. The initiation parties ot the Pilots have always been regarded as rather unusual. They talce place in the evening and carry over into the next day. The club is now going to try to malce the initiation more signiticant. Signing the tive pledges is one step in this direction. The otiicers tor last tall were Roy Pearson, president: Betty Merritt, vice- president: Shirley l-lolmgren, secretary: Rosemary Jensen, treasurer. The present otiicers are Bob l-lubbard, president: Edward Weidner, vice-president: Mary Lois McGovern, secretary, Mariellen Pranlc, treasurer.
