NUNC DIMITTIS CLUBS BY PAT MICHAEL NDER the leadership of their respective presidents, the French, Latin, Thespians, and Student Guide Clubs have rounded up another year with a fine record. The French Club under the leadership of Barbara Heath put on several very interesting pro- grams. Vice-President and Secretary of the club was Martha Scott. Henry Adams, the president, made the Thespians a thoroughly interesting proposition. With the inauguration of luncheon meetings, members were able to attend meetings regularly and to discuss and present skits informally. They also gave three assembly pro- grams: Wurzel Flummery , a series of humorous skits, and scenes from famous plays. Christine Gesell was Secretary this year. The Latin Club also instituted a new plan for meetings. They chose eleven o'clock on the first Friday of every month, and only Latin students attended. Ruth Mary Schorling was the president, and the other oiiicers were: Ted Bragg, Vice-President, and Stan Moore, Secretary. Several plays were presented, and out-side speakers were brought in. Barbara Heath was also in charge of the Student Guides. Beth O'Roke was the Vice- President, and Frances Orr the Secretary. The much-discussed pins were finally purchased and presented to the guides, Gold for the people who had been guides for six semesters, and silver for the others. The guides also had a dinner in the cafeteria this year, and be- sides that have been doing the usual, but very necessary, work in the office. The G.A.A. has also had a very active year under Barbara Kanouse. Mary Wheat was the Vice-President. Intramural games were held under the auspices of the G.A.A. all year, and a picnic was held in the spring. A swimming club and a badminton club were instituted this year for the first time. SPRING SPORTS BY GREY NELSON PRING SPORTS this year netted a pretty good average, considering everything. An exceptional tennis season, a fair golf season, and a mediocre track record were gained. The golf team, captained by jack Dobson, had six victories and three defeats, and also won the Regional Golf Tournament. Besides jack, the team was composed of Bill Huntington, Myron Sarnes, Stan Moore, Frank Heike, and Bill Wood, In the State Tourn- ament, held at the University Course, the boys placed fourth. Mr. East's track team didn't fare as well as the other two teams. Captain George Hoar's team was composed of Berry Ratliif, Paul Sample, jay Osborne, joe Hewett, Dana Dob- son, Fitch Tillotsen, Ted Treadway, Fred Guthe, Jack Sharman, Phil Gordy, Ed Green, and Henry Adams. The tracksters beat Roosevelt, and had several losses, taking fifth place in the Huron League, and netting only five points in the Regional Meet. Coach Johnston's tennis team had a very good season with seven victories and only two defeats. The members of the squad were: Bob Grafton, Grey Nelson, Phil Newman, Frank Shull, Al Lee, Bud Dana, Louis Hopkins, Noisy Carr, Jack Weller, Dan Wheeler, Bob Mitchell, Dwight Adams, john Brunner, Arthur Hopkins, David Sherwin, Ben Boehm, and Ted Bragg. In the Huron League Tournament, the boys tied with Roosevelt for first place. In the Regional Tournament the team placed third in a field of seven, Carr and Hopkins of U. High winning the doubles title. In the State Tournament at Grand Rapids, Carr and Hopkins reached the finals, where they were defeated by a strong St. Clair team, However, they were runners-up for the state doubles championship.
