Under the able guidance of Mr. Walsh the Chemistry club's purpose of fostering scien- tiie interest among the members has been realized to the fullest. During the year a number of interesting experiments have been run by individuals members of the club, which ordinarily could not have been shown because of the lack of equipment. Another popular activity of this club has been the regular showing of Elms on chem- ical subjects, which have been received with much interest by the members. One of the big things proposed for the club was the visiting of scientific and chem- ical establishments. Although this visiting hasn't been realized to its fullest extent, we are positive that this has been most interest- ing and informative to the great majority. We are sorry that the year isn't longer and that this program must end. However, we know that the Chemistry Club doesn't take a back seat to any club that was or ever will be in Roxbury Memorial.

DeCrtstoloro, Theron VanBrakIe, Martin Bluestetn, Stanley Finer, Robert Rosoff This past year under the very able direc- tion of our genial mentor, Mr. DeCristoforo. an expert on photography, we of The Cam era Club were instructed in the art of tak- ing, developing, printing, and enlarging pic- tures in the school's photography laboratory. The laboratory in our opinion is one of the public school systemls best equipped. We have held a contest to determine who has captured themost interesting picture ol this, our last year at Memorial. The person who is chosen for having shot the best pic- ture will receive a prize consisting of some photography equipment that he needs. For this affair, we hope Doctor Crudden and some of the instructors from the Art De- partment will be available as judges. Melvin Chessler is president: Theron Van Brackle, vice president: Irwin S.

At our first and second meetings we were taught the fundamentals of photography. ,......-- .-f t' .,.t , ,,.. 1 if ,,-, . , , --Q...
