 SSnnater dub m January 1924, the girls of the Union High School, organized a club which they called the “BOOSTER CLUB”. Miss Partridge, the commercial teacher, was chosen the advisor, Doris Busick was elected president, Marcia Phy vice-president and Leona Rosewall, secretary and treasurer. The Booster Club entertained the various visiting Basket Ball teams. At the close of the Basket Ball season they gave a banquet for the football, basketball teams and high school faculty. At the end of the year, every one had decided that the “Booster Club” was a great success and that it should continue in the following years. 1924-25 they began working in January with the following officers: Miss Partridge, advisor; Gracia Haggerty, president; Myrl Mayo, vice-president; and Nellie McClellan, secretary and treasurer. They took up the same kind of work as was done the year before. The “Booster Club” and “Tom Cats” work together for the good of the school. The work will go on the same next year, although we have lost a very faithful advisor. We hope to get one that can fill her place. Q---------0 Camp Jfirr (Stria The Camp Fire Girls organization of the High School renewed activities for 1924 on November 18, with a meeting held for the purpose of electing officers. The officers elected were as follows: Susan Chadwick, president; Myrtle Webster, vice-president; Marie Smith, secretary and treasurer; Areta Titus, reporter. Work was immediately begun on the play “The Camp Fire Girls”, but owing to weather conditions and other unsatisfactory circumstances, it was decided that the play should be dropped until the future. The girls fed and entertained several visiting teams of basketball girls, and conducted candy sales at the various games and plays. The sales were for the purpose of raising Imoney to pay dues, and other fees. After the Christmas vacation, several new girls were initiated into the camp and feeds and ceremonial meetings occupied the camp’s attention. Then came tournament week, and the girls conceived the idea of selling pop corn balls and soda pop at the basket ball games in order to raise the necessary funds for ceremonial gowns. Their efforts considerably increased the amount in the exchequer. So many girls wished to enter the camp that it was decided that two groups be formed, as a camp cannot have more than twenty members. The number of applicants exceeded that number, so the other camp was organized. It is hoped that more work along this line can be done, as the organization is beneficial not only to the girls in it, but to the entire school as well. When the present guardian of Camp No. 1, Miss Partridge, leaves, Mrs. Pitts will take her place. Miss Georgiana Jensen will act as guardian for Camp No. II. The girls are planning a week of camp life at Wallowa Lake this summer. Page Eighteen

The Tom Cats is an organization of most of the boys in Union High School. A. constitution for these Tom Cats was drawn up by Robert Wakefield. Donald Lamb, and Murray Jensen, and from then on they were active and their footprints may be seen in the sand of Union High. The idea of this organization was to make a more organized high school inasmuch as all the Tom Cats were to be staunch supporters of Union High at all times. As an organization they acted as host for some of the feeds after the games. At the end of the eventful year 1924-25 the Tom Cat is yet in his prime, and next year it is hoped they will reorganize. Long live the U-Hi Tom Cats! Page Nineteen
