Eighteen Years of Service Frisch begonnen; halb gewormen is the motto of the German Club which expresses the thought that a good beginning is half the winning. Any student of German who has a grade of B or better may become a member of the club if he is approved by the cabinet. The meetings are held every second Thursday of the month. Among the social activities, the fall and spring banquets given in honor of the graduating seniors of the German Club are the most outstanding. The initiation ceremonies are also enjoyed because of their comical themes. Each semester, the student who ranks highest in service and scholarship has his name engraved on the trophy of the club. Members of the fall cabinet were Creighton Mauritz, president: Hartley Rudd and Margaret Gorgen. vice-presidents: Helen Schetter, secretary: John Hovelsrud. treasurer: and Millard Stephans, sergeant-at-arms. The spring officers include Millard Stephans, president: Margaret Gorgen and Helen Schetter. vice-presidents: Helen Ahnert, secretary: Marilyn Ak-erson, treasurer: and Owen Nelson, sergeant-at-arms.

Viking Spirit Prevails The Norse Club, organized in 1926 by Mr. Benjamin Eggan. has had a new adviser in Mr. Cole for the spring semester of this year. The only qualification for membership in the Norse Club is that the student must be taking or must have taken Norse. At the meetings held on the first and third Thursday of each month, the student's interest in Norwegian culture is promoted by interesting lectures and films on Norway. The main social events of the Norse Club have been the initiation party, the senior banquet, and the Norse-Swedish basketball game. The Norse trophy is awarded by the Sons of Norway to the boy or girl who has made the greatest progress in scholarship and who has shown real interest in Norwegian culture.

Stepping Stone to the Phi Beta Kappa Quest of the Best is the motto of the Senior Honor Society of Roosevelt High School which is a branch of the National Honor Society. This club is comparable to the Phi Beta Kappa and the Sigma Psi societies at the University of Minnesota. A student must have a 2.3 average in his studies through the tenth and eleventh grades in order to become a member of this society. Scholarship, leadership, service, and character are the requisites for membership. The pin of the club, which is a lighted torch with the letters C.S.L.S., signifies all of these things. The club meetings are held the second Thursday of each month with Mrs. Gerard and Miss Gruber as faculty advisers. The main social functions of the Senior Honor Society are the teas given each term in honor of the I OB students who were members of the honor society in junior high school. These teas are given for the purpose of familiarizing the newcomers with the club so that they will strive toward this goal of honor when they become seniors. The induction ceremonies for the I2B and I2A members are also an important event. During the fall term the president was Mildred Froysland; Edith Ann Burke was vice-president; and Betty Christopherson was the secretary-treasurer. The officers for the spring term were Erling Bligard, president; Dona Peterson, vice-president; and Marian Erickson, secretary-treasurer. C 28 3
