The College Club, under the leadership of Miss George, our guidance counselor, has com- pleted its fourth year at Union High School. The members, of the club, are composed of seniors interested in furthering their education. The main purpose of the club is to answer all questions the members may have about col- lege requirements and the life of a college stu- dent. Since the group doesn’t hold regular month- ly meetings, there is no need for officers. The faculty adviser, however, sees that they meet when there is a problem to be discussed. Many times during the course of the year the members of the club could be found in Miss George’s room seeking help in filling in appli- cations or applying for scholarships. The Nurses Club, sponsored by Miss George, is devoted to girls interested in the nursing pro- fession. This year the club consists of thirty-five jun- ior and senior girls interested in becoming fa- miliar with local hospitals and training oppor- tunities. In order to establish interest and famil- iarity in nursing as a career, the members take hospital tours. Some hospitals visited were Mercy, Washington, and Presbyterian. They have heard guest speakers and discussed the profession at their meetings. On November 4, the club saw a movie and heard a guest speaker, Mrs. Frank, who is on the teaching staff at Washington Hospital. She outlined the important information that must be considered essential to those selecting a nurses- training school. The members were familiarized with areas in the profession which are available.

The Future Teachers of America, under the expert guidance of Miss George, our guid- ance counselor, accomplished many things this year. The purpose of the club is to study and identify the qualities, traits, and aptitudes which are essential for successful teaching. Different teaching fields are studied. To be a member of the club one has to have an interest in the teach- ing profession. The following members were chosen to serve the club as officers: Helene Horovitz, President; Donna Schiavo, Vice President; Jo Ann Fratini, Secretary. The club raised money this year by selling book covers and sweaters to the student body. Club meetings were held, during lunch hour, on one Wednesday of each month at which time various problems about teaching were dis- cussed. Often during the year senior members were seen walking about the halls looking very neat and well-dressed. This happened on the days when the members were given opportunities to teach in the elementary schools. A great deal of practical experience was gained by members who did substitute teaching during the year. 23
