This year new mem- bers underwent the usual initiations and could be distinguished by a small maroon and gold ribbon as they bowed to senior members. They all agreed later that it was worth all the sutlering and torture they went through. The Quo Vadis Club holds its meetings every other Wednesday morning at eight o'clock A.M. Their slogan is: Cooperation, Service, Loyalty, and Friendship. Each one ot these aims is a worthy goal tor all the members of the club. The primary purpose ot the club is to serve as ushers at all school events not already spon- sored by some other club. Some ot these events are the class play and choir concerts. The club's advisers who deserve a great deal ot credit tor the club's success are Miss Bjorklund and Mr. Vogtsberger.

Knight Reporters The Roosevelt Standard, which is published on Thursday, presents a resume ot the week's news to aII students. The new motto adopted by the statt is It the Standard doesn't come out, it isn't Thursday. Roosevelt students should be proud ot their weekly publication as the Standard has won the AII-American rating many times and has also won honors in the International Quill and Scroll. To become a member ot the statf. a student must complete News I and show an ability to write news articles. The statt meets each day the fourth period in room 325. It you happen to go by room 325 on Tuesday, you may won- der whether a complete issue ot the Standard will really come out Thursday morning. Wednes- day is Standard Day down at the printers. That is the day when page editors help set up type tor their respective pages. The Sagamore extends its sympathies to Mr. Nielsen. The statt is looking forward to the day when their sons and daughters will serve as the backbone ot the Standard. Editor's note: For security reasons the name of the author of the preceding paragraph must be withheld. Day Reporters Editors at Work! Hauge, Wullran, Borseth, Meyer, Cotterman, Steinhagen, D.

Alchemists At precisely five minutes after three, Sam flies into room 223 and settles the prospec- tive Einsteins down for an interesting Science Club meeting. This activity takes place every other Tuesday afternoon. l922 was the first yeargfor the Science Club. ln I949, the club has had many extra- ordinary meetings. Many times there have been interesting talks and discussions. Bob Hagerman came over from Hamline Univer- sity to give a lecture on soaps and detergents lsoap flakes to most of usl. At another meet- ing the members made prisms to use for pa- perweights. Names were etched on the prisms with a special glass etching paste. One un- usual day there was a demonstration of some solid fuel rockets, two of which met with un- fortunate fates. Blood testing was the subject of another demonstration. At one meeting there was a lecture on the mysterious subject of astronomical and terrestial telescopes. An- other interesting demonstration was the re- moval of spots and stains. Various pieces of cloth were stained. These spots were removed by certain chemicals.
