Acme Girls are elected to this honorary society for excellence in character, leadership, scholarship and service to the school. New members are unanimously elected by the group with the approval of the faculty. Before fall quarter began all the girls of the school were guests of Acme. Each new student had a big sister who introduced her to the other girls. Then the whole party cheered their team at the first football game. Acmeans have done dishes at P.T.A. meetings this year. Junior members served as ushers at the senior class play, commencement and Baccalaureate. The St. Paul Athletic Club was the scene of the spring initiation. It was a formal dinner at which seniors Elaine Greenstien, Elizabeth Burn. Margaret Hanson, and juniors Helen Buchta. Joyce Tankenoff. and Joanna Schmalhorst were initiated.

Pan-American League With the aim of gaining greater understanding of Latin-American countries the Pan-American League has completed an active season. Rating first among the year's activities was the Christmas celebration. After parties in all Spanish classes, came the observance of an old Mexican custom, when the pinata was suspended from the ceiling, full of presents. A blindfolded member whacked it with a cane, and the members reaped the profits. At the initiation ceremony last fall, new members wore red sashes and mantillas. The secret oath of the Pan-American League was administered at the following meeting. Spanish Club usually holds its elections in the early fall. This club leaves behind it traditions and happy memories. PAN AMERICAN CLUB—TOP ROW: Hoetgef. Yoder. Myeti. Arncton, R. Harm. C. Johnson, Zictlow, M. Smith. E. Bum. 0. Pearton. 2nd ROW: P.

Its main project was to purchase a gift for the school in the name of Miss Marlowe, U. High's late Latin teacher. This memorial fund was headed by Nory Boberg. A box was placed in the library for a week during winter quarter. Anyone who wished to contribute was urged to do so. The constitution committee was ably headed by Imo-gene Boberg while Jacqueline Clark headed a committee to plan program meetings. The major objective of the meetings was to further the interest of the members in Roman culture, clothes, and customs. The officers for the year were Carol Macey. Mary Amberg, Beverly Miller, and Barry Prichard. 25
