SCIENCE CLUI3 At the beginning of the year, a group of ambitious students called a general meeting of all pupils interested in the establishment of a Science Club. At this meeting a constitution was drawn up, and a motto was adopted. Provisions for the election of officers were explained. The following meeting saw the election of the officers. Michael J. Donohue was chosen presidentg Stan Wi. Bawol, vice presidentg Vivian Collins, secretaryg and Charles Gaffney, treasurer. The plans for a year's progress were drawn up. During the course of the year we have been honored by several speakers. Two assembly pro- grams were presented with great success. A dance was held to raise funds for the treasury. At the close of the season, the Science Club went on expeditions into the country to study nature. To close the season with success the club went to Howe's Cavern where they had a picnic. During the year the club revived a new interest in science in the school and did much to promote its development. Next year the Science Club will continue to prosper and be a light and benefit as well as an honor to our advancing school.

SCHDDL CLUBS During the past year, many new clubs have been formed in our school. These clubs are of great value to the students. They promote the interest of the students in the subjects, therefore the students are more eager to study their lessons. The Science Club was formed under the leadership of Mr. Clark. This club endeavors to investigate the wonderful magic of science. The Science Club has put on two assembly programs. The 4'Major Bozo Program was enjoyed by everyone and a little scientific knowledge was gained from it. The Newspaper Club was formed March 11-, 1936. It is under the guid- ance of Mr. Faville and Mr. Clark. The object of the Newspaper Club is to secure all the news and rumors floating around in the air and print them in the newspaper, 4'Student Printsf, A Model Airplane Club and a Stamp Club were formed by Mr. Pemble- ton. These are of great value to the students, especially the boys. Everybody has some interest in the working and making of an airplane. This club gives the students the opportunity to learn more about this new, scientific method of transportation. The aim of the Stamp Club is to secure new, different and rare stamps. We are all hoping that these stamps will be put on display soon. 'llllese clubs are new projects in Sauquoit Valley Central School. The students are hoping that the old ones will be continued next year and that new ones will be formed. JUST UNE UF THUSE THINGS Just one of those things that we do not appreciate is our lineup of school buses. We do not quite realize their value this time of year, but we would feel their absence during the winter time. Most of us hop from our doorway to a heated bus, thus eliminating plodding through the snow. Should we have been present at all the plays, dances, basketball games and other entertainments that we have enjoyed, if the bus had not called for us and taken us home again afterwards? Let us consider our buses as we would a great luxury, not just one of those things. Lois Keehle: ult's really awfully late, Martin? Martin Roedy: Yes, Lois, I suppose l ought to gof' Mr. Keehle tfrom top of stairst: wfhatis the first sensible thing youive said this evening.
