HIGH SCHOOL LI-FE THE WRECKING CREW After the flu ban was lifted and we returned to school a certain group of fellows came back so full of pep that extraordinary precautions had to be taken, for alone they were dangerous, but united formed a very efficient machine, called The Wrecking Crew. The 'machine consisted of fifteen members of the boys at school who had an extra amount of pep. They were organized and Eugene Dyke was chosen to lead the Crew as Presidentg Edgar Holcomb, secretary and treasurer. The crew needed no introduction after their first appearance in the gym, to play girls' basketball in feminine attire. The game turned out to be a farce football game and several embarrassing scenes took place due to lack of knowledge of feminine dress. Two words, Mark and Wright, suggest the championship boxing match in which Kid Wright laid the big boy low and Warren triumphed over Salem. Then came the first Wrecking Crew dance at the Opera house. Shisler's orchestra furnished the music and it turned out a most enjoyable time for all in spite of bad weather: The crew have planned a big farewell dance, and carrying things at their scale, it surely will be a success. Other than furnishing all sorts of fun for the student body, they car- ried out a second step of their organization, to promote and help school activities. And the Crew have had charge of nearly all financial prob- lems of the school and have succeeded in doing fine work for every school organization along this line. They put two tag days over the top and their sale of tickets in every event has broken all previous records. The crew ably assisted the track, tennis, basketball teams and never failed to accomplish what they started out to do. ' As the crew consisted mainly of Seniors it will be necessary for new members and officers to be elected and plan for next year. We all join in hearty acknowledgement of what fine work these fel- lows have done for the school and the school wishes their future success Enid may the Crew continue its good work next year in Warren High c oo . , raft! iff 'fa J-rj: x ,lqfgwtg , ,I . ll xl PA- 9 AA QW' IL! ...55..

HIGH SCHOOL LIFE THE COMMERCIAL CLUB In October, 1918, a club was formed by the Commercial students and all interested in commercial work in Warren High. The object of this club was to develop a better knowledge of parliamentary law and essen- tials in business life. Meetings were held every second Tuesday evening in the High School Auditorium. The officers elected for the first sem- ester were: President, John Armourg Vice-President, John Mahannag Sec- retary, Dorothy Poulsong Treasurer, Mary Allen. Meetings were discon- tinued during the enforced vacation and not much progress was made until the beginning of the new semester. At that time new officers were elected as follows: President, Margaret Farrell, Vice-President, Edwin Lerchg Secretary, Mary Hayesg Treasurer, Mildred Cordell. Many social af- fairs were given by the commercial club this year. Among these were a Khaki and Blue Recruiting party, a dance for the benefit of High School Life, a picnic for the club and another dance is to be given before the close of the school year. The Club has been a success this year financially, socially and educationally. We all hope the Commercial students will or- ganize again next year and have the Club a permanent organization in Warren High. Much credit is due the faculty advisors, Miss Flood and Miss Beatty, for their untiring efforts in helping the Club. 4. if K A I .fe ..57...
