Combined Efforts Make an Active Girls' Club Girls' Club Officers Standing, left to right: Cor- inne McCumber (Corres- ponding Secretary), Inga Hodgson (President), Mari- kate Tarbill (Treasurer) ; seated, left to right: Arlene Swanson (Recording Secre- tary), Mary Rice (Vice- President) . Advised by Miss Isabelle Neffeler, and with the cooperation of every Roosevelt girl, the Girls’ Club officers (pictured above at their inauguration) worked through the Administration, Cul- tural, Social, and Service Departments to make this a successful year. Blanche Knickerbocker was chosen as the first Inspirational Chairman, with ten outstanding committee members in her court. Her successors will be selected each semester from the cabinet. The Girls’ Club paper has long been known to us as Highlights. It is Teddy Echo now as a result of a renaming contest in the fall. Featured social events of the year were the Christmas Tea for girls and their mothers, the Father-Daughter Dessert Party— Happy Hearts' Holiday, the Mother-Daughter Banquet — “Carousel, and the Big and Little Sister parties. 16

Eoysf Clui» The Boys' Club was ably staffed by (left to right John Sipherd (treasurer). Mr. Sherry Berthiaume (adviser), Don Farra (vice-pesident), Mike Monroe (secretary), Bob McNamee (president) The 1950-1951 season marked another fine period of accomplishment for the Roosevelt Boys’ Club. Bob McNamee. president, had been moved up by popular vote from the office of treasurer, which he held last year, thus giving the club experi- enced leadership. A highlight of the year was the Father-Son Ban- quet. Nearly four hundred men and boys, all dressed in Levis and plaid shirts to carry out the theme of woodsmen, were served by the Spurs. The dinner was pronounced a complete success, and the enter- tainment— movies of the year's football contests— “tops.” Roosevelt's championship football team, present in full force, was an added attraction of the evening. Reviewing the year's work, it can be said that the combined efforts of the officers and committees made the club a very important organization in school life. 18
