Membership in the club requires that a student must have taken, or is in the process of taking, Spanish for a minimum of one year. Rusiness meetings are held regularly in which there is discus- sions of different topics. Reports are given by members about Spain with a discussion period after each talk. Movies are shown once a month to ac- quaint members with the culture and social views of Spain. The spirit of the club is well expressed in the statement from our constitution that the Spanish Club of Roxbury Memorial Boys High School shall embody the true democratic spirit as expressed in the Declaration of Independence and also in the Constitution of the United States.

Ch oh1953 77 Memorial’s radio club started the Public Schools Radio Shows off this year, as our first forum was taped and broadcast over station WMEX. The speake rs, under the able guidance of our own Mrs. McGrath, spoke on the subject of International Government. When time came for the Girls Scholar- ship Play, it was necessary for us to lend a helping hand to our sister school, and to say the least our boys really outd’d themselves. “Of Thee We Speak’’, a dramatic pro- duction staged by the girls, was made more of a success through the aid of some of our dramatic club members. We confess that we did little, but we can proudly say that the little that we did was done well. Radio and Dramatics Second Row: Mrs. McGrath, Bruce Newman, David Cohen. First Row: Arnold Sher, Robert Ente, Marvin Cantor, Barry Sax, Gerald Faverman.

Yes, these are the commands of the able captains who are training and preparing the boys of Memorial for their big days, Prize Drill and the Schoolboy Parade, under the able direction of Colonel Albert Dunphy.
