This year the party was held at the tire barn. Qui Vive and Pilots were combined in the Spring ot l946, and the new organization was named Quo Vadis. An election is held each term by the l2A's, and those elected must be trom the IZB grade with a C average. They hold their meetings every other Wednesday betore school. The ad- visers tor this club are Miss Nelson and Mr. Votsberger. This club talces part in many activities, but their main objective is service to the school.

At the end ot this course, it he has proved himselt capable, he is chosen to be on the statt. The statt meets daily the tourth period in Room 325. Two or three days betore the paper is printed the room is a scene ot hum- ming activity. l-ley, Judd, how do you spell intelligent? Anybody seen the story on the gym team? These are the trantic cries ot the statt as they hurry to get their articles in betore the deadline. This year the Standard again held its Rap- in-Wax contest. The results were as success- tul as ever. The money taken in is used to buy pictures tor the paper. The Sagamore Statt wishes every one to know that we are on the triendliest terms pos- sible with the Standard statt and our little, shall we say, teud has not caused injuries to either side.
