Boys' Club One hundred and forty boys addressed Al Kloster as Mr. President , followed him through a maze of in- tramural athletic tournaments, ping pong, Fathers' and Sons' steaks, smokers-a year active, engrossing, satisfy- ing. Biggest money-making project was the presentation of The Cougar , first talking picture to be shown at Selah High. Most pleasurable event was the Fathers' and Sons' banquet, at which some 300 fathers, sons, business men, and teachers feasted, gave impromptu talks, and listened to jokesters. OFFICERS-Advisor Shearingg Treasurer Williamsg President Klosterg Vice-president Stephens: Secretary Johnson. Pop Club A calendar of ticket selling, advertising and odd jobs forced pepsters to give full vent to excess energies before assigned tasks were marked as finished. Special- ized work was the printing of handbills and tickets by Beulah Marshall and Kevin Shepherdg high-pressure Howard Montgomery boosted ticket sales, and basketball crowds answered appeals from Roy Stephens and War- ren Jones with ringing cheers.

For the Honor of the School Constitutional revisions, keynoted with slightly stiffer grade qualifications and startlingly stiffer extra activity qualifications, was the Honor Society's chief ac- complishment this year. Jack McNamara presided over this unusually suc- cessful year-successful from the standpoint of his at- tempts to instill much needed energy into the organiza- tion. FRUITSPUR

Last Year9s Trophy Winner By no means satisfied with a si11gle feather in her cap, Bernice Shepherd swept through activity after activity and added the finishing touch to her long list of successes by being awarded the t'hristian Trophy. Versatile, serious-eyed Bernice will be remembered, too, for her trustworthiness, expertness and ambitiousness. The small engraved name O11 the cup will remain a Sllllllllg' tribute to the most outstanding student ot' the graduating class of '3l6. Unaccustomed As I Am to Speaking in Publien Agile-tongued Bill Brathovde of last year's graduating class, through his superior progress in the Public Speaking course was awarded the Pleasant Hill Goodwill i'lub's prize oi' rF2.5ll. Two-fifty for Two A member of each year's senior class is awarded 345 by the Selah Women's iflnb as the most outstanding English student. The unusual occurred last year when it was discovered that Viola Bas- conib and Marjory Mickleson had exactly the same grades. In all fairness, the prize was divided between them. FRUITSPUR 1',,g.,o

S Men Subsidiary to the Boys' Club, the S men under Bob Burgner, took the detailed work from its mother organization upon its own shoulders and planned the Fathers' and Sons' Banquet, organized boys' intramural activities, and smoothed out difficulties as they arose in the administration of these sports. This work gave good reason for the S-men's lease on existence. First row-Jones, Bergren, Williams, Farley, Baker, Ward. Second row-Cavenaugh, McNamara, Mllne, Eustace, Eli Breeding, Collition. Third row--Kloster, Burgner, Lloyd, Stephens, Seibly, Tyrrell. Girls' Club Little sisters, big sisters, and faculty members frolicked at the Girls' Mixer, a send-off for an active year of club affairs. Parties, a Tri-State Conference. and play days were included in the club's date book. Climaxing the success of the club year was the Mothers' and Daughters' Tea, made financially possible through candy sales and a magic show. Following tradition, the club again bore the brunt of Honor Society pin expenses. Left to right-Day, Watkins, Drake, Ames, Wright, Baker, Johnston, Austin, Herring, Left to right Slieplierd, Purdin, Scherer, Drake, Quall, llrators Four debates-four victories-semi-finals at the Puget Sound Debate Tournament. For these triumphs Virginia Drake argued calculatingly. Helen Shepherd dramatically, Ellen Scherer serenely, Betty Gay Purdin effusively, and all four convincingly. Governmental ownership of public utilities was the point in question: Mr. Quall, the coach. FRUITSPUR First row-Montgomery, Cook, Ausink, Purdin, Haworth. B. McNamara, Drake. Second row-fJahnke, B.

Calyx and Evho Old Calyx column for news . . .new Calyx Echo for names . . . both for enriching student life . . . the latter for an answer to the student body's question. Why shouldn't a school our size have a school paper? Enterprising Virginia Drake prepared the monthly dum- my and saw that weekly news was covered, with Miss Gwin standing by with the red pencil.
