Poster Club Neil Stievater Just for laughs! Norbert Wrobel Was the original Neanderthal man, when he carved the tlrst crude reindeer out ot the eastern facade of his summer cave, merely trying to keep himself amused? No, he was trying to express himself. And it was probably very similar views that led to the formation of the new Poster Club. Originated by and under the guidance ot Brother B. Joseph, the club has tor its main ob- iective the development ot worthwhile art talent in the student body, especially tor work on both the yearbook and the school paper. Front row: R. Baumann, C.

Historical Society A successor to last years l.R.C., the Historical Society has given its members a varied program of student discussions and lectures by guest speakers. Under the guidance ot Mr. Provenzo, Modera- tor, the members elected John Kane, President, Bert Frederick, Vice-President, James Livingston, Treasurer, Michael Horan, Secretary. Among the more prominent student discussions was the mock UN Assembly meeting, re-enacting the session at which the UN decided what to do on the Korean War issue in l95O. The highlight of the club's activities came on the evening ot December 3, when Father Herbert J. Clancy, S.J., spoke on the Hsneak attack by the Japanese on Pearl Harbor in l94l. His talk was appropriate, since it was iust l2 years to the week that the attack had taken place. April 3 marked the annual high school mock U.N. General Assembly meeting at State Teachers College. The Historical Society, in the name ofthe school, sent delegates Bert Frederick, who acted as chairman, Lawrence Murray, David Reimondo, John Kane and Henry Eberle as representatives of Liberia. 42 Delegates to the Model U.
