 Student Days in Heidelberg The purpose of the German Club is to foster a feeling of fellowship among the students enrolled in German. This year the German Club met under the direction of Fraulien Birkmaier. Each fall new members are taken into the club and have to pledge for one day. The Germans cemented relations with other language clubs at a party given November 27. President Jim McMillan, vice president Don Levinius, and secretary, Joan Hunter, supervised all club activities this past year. The German Club has been one of the most active and lively clubs in U. High. The German Club was one of the main participants in the all-school language clubs’ picnic on May 16. South America, Take It Away Pan-American League took its new members in on November 1st after a day of pledging. They were rewarded with an initiation party at which they sang, danced and enjoyed refreshments. This club was a very important participant in the language party held on November 27th. They took part in the program and added chocolate and dulce to the other delicious food served. Christmas was celebrated with parties and pinatas. The Spanish room was decorated with evergreen boughs, red bows, and an ever-disappearing sprig of mistletoe. GERMAN CLUB—TOP ROW: B. Swenton. 0. Sell. Setter, Wolff, M. Carlton, Fincgan, Ammerman, E.

 My Belle Amie Parlez-vous francos?' If you do, you probably belong to the French Club which had a very interesting and active program during the year. Inspired by Mademoiselle Noviant who came from Paris early in the school year, the programs, including talks about life in France, French songs and games, were both educational and entertaining. Under the leadership of president Barbara Merrill, the club sponsored a highly successful fortune telling concession at the Carnival. They also took part in a modern language party during the fall quarter. Officers of the French club for the past year were Barbara Merrill, president: Betty Jean Marsh, secretary: Peggy Paterson. treasurer. Roman in the Gloomin' One of the time-honored clubs of U. High, the Latin Club, was started to present to the students phases of the language and of Roman life that were not included in the classwork. Ten people were taken into Latin Club this year. They wore laurel wreaths on their heads and had to pledge for one day. At the end of the day. an initiation party was held. Refreshments were served and the club members sang Latin songs and played Latin games. The major objective of the meetings was to increase the members knowledge of Roman culture and customs. Officers Norrie Boberg. president. Chandler Pauling vice president, Ann Jarvis, secretary, and Mary Am-berg, treasurer, guided the activities of the club this year. FRENCH CLUB—TOP ROW: J. Nelson, I.

 Don't Put Your Daughter On the Stage! The big project for the senior high Dramatic Club this year was to furnish our new stage in room 209 with a curtain, flats, and lighting equipment. Means were obtained through the cabaret they sponsored at the Carnival. It was by far the most outstanding concession. The Gay 90 s floor show included a melodrama, a chorus doing the cancan, and vaudeville singers. The all-school play was one of the most beautiful and unusual plays ever presented at U. High. Its lovely, authentic Chinese costumes and strange traditions of the ancient Chinese theater made it a most interesting play to watch. Everyone will always remember the performance of Sally Bay-liss. The Dramatic Club is open to all interested in dramatics and it is under the supervision of Lauren Brink. Make Believe The Junior High Dramatic Club consists of all the pupils in the seventh, eighth and ninth grades who are interested in dramatics. The dub contributed in no small way to the success of the combined Dramatic Clubs' cabaret at the U. High Winter Carnival. The girls and boys in the club acted as waitresses and waiters and took tickets. During the meetings several members of the club gave plays for the benefit of the other members and played records of readings by many of the great contemporary actresses. In spring quarter a club party was held. A short skit was presented and all later enjoyed refreshments. Officers of the club this past year were: pres., Barbara Levine: vice-pres.. Ann Jarvis; sec., Toni Krick; and treas., Nora Schmalhorst. SENIOR HIGH DRAMATIC CLUB. TOP ROW. C Johmon, Zeitlow, Homer. Don Johnson, Dcringer. McMillen, Arncion, Marvin, WardweM. Fincgan, Koch.
