At that time the staff consisted of four members and has, since then, grown to its present day membership of thirty students. Recommendation by the adviser and teachers is the chief requirement of the stu- dent seeking admission into thls group. These pupils serve in a dual capacity: that of serving the school and their fellow stu- dents and that of receiving, by mea s of this elementary course, s n using library re- sourc and a knowledge of li- brary work as a profession. W. ::f 'f' 1412, RED CROSS The Junior Red Cross, an ac- tive organization, is affiliated with the American Red Cross. Some of the local activities spon- sored by the Red Cross are the distribution of Thanksgiving baskets to the needy, the giving of toys at Christmas to children, and the making of contributions to the Carmelite Orphanage. The Red Cross enterprise is of state, national, and inter-national ser- vice. Afternoon dances and candy sales are two of its means of raising funds. Correspond- ence with foreign countries is carried on through scrap-books and portfolios. The Red Cross creates good will and prepared- ness to serve humanity in the event of unforeseenidisaster.

WASHINGTON B ROTH ERS With the idea of fostering an acquaintance between the under- classmen and their school, the Washington Brothers was be- gun. This group of senior and junior boys, supervised by Mr. Walley, has increased not only in prestige and in number but also in service to their fellow students. Every fall, a group of new students enters the high school, a strange and awesome place. The Washington Brothers meet with the boys once a month, informing them, through friendly discussions, about the school. This year, ably led by Donald Brislain as president, the organization has accom- plished many things, Arrrong these is the presef1tation,of a boys' assembly on one Friday morning of every month. GIRL COUNSELLORS The Girl Counsellors, estab- lish in 1927, an outstanding ser- vice organization under the spon- sorship of Miss Bloomquist, has been instrumental in the devel- opment of good character in the Washington High School girl. On unfamiliar grounds and un- certain about the management of our school, the new seventh, eighth, and ninth grade girls are generally somewhat bewildered. A conscientious endeavor of the Girl Counsellors is to acquaint these newcomers better with our school. Members of this organ- ization, chosen for their scholar- ship, leadership, and citizenship, counsel the younger girls once a month. Under the direction of their able president, Marguerite Spaulding, the Senior Girl Coun- sellors present a monthly pro- gram in girls' assembly. ,As sVx i ,s ab' I 1 Y Q.-. if Ask! 1 ta' ' u We A F4 c 5 f f Y, 5 , a , WASHINGTON BROTHERS TOP ROW-Boetel, Banfy, Shite, Chovanec, Baran, Reschan, Bozek, Kelly, Kugar, Swinehart, Gearring Zakula, Samarzia, Mroz.

At that time its staff was comprised of twenty mqmbers, and it was a one page edition. However, it has, since then, graduated into a four page paper, with a staff of sixteen members. What the newspaper is to the general community, the Weekly Anvil is to the community of Washington High School. Both publications are alike in the respect that they are informative, that is, they print stories and news items that are of interest to the student, they influence the mind, and they are educational. A, distinct ad- vantage possessed by the school publication in educational value is the fact that it is the product of its readers: they make and contribute all of the news that goes into each and every edition. Without their aid and support, this publication could not exist. The staff of the Weekly Anvil is comprised, chiefly, of former members of the journalism class, who trained themselves for membership to this organ- ization by contributing news of school activities to their own publication as well as to the local city presses, The Washington High School publication, which has Miss Lucy Swindell and Messers. Kellam and Altenderfer, as its faculty advisers, is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association. This school paper, as well as a majority of others, is set up basically identical to any professional sheet, that is, it has its literary personnel made up of an editor-in-chief, assistant editor, feature editor, literary editor, news editor, a columnist, and several featured columns-boys' sports, girls' sports, exchange editors, and an editorial writer, The business aspect is handled through the medium of a business manager, and the actual printing is under the auspices of two mechanical editors. ln summing it all up, one finds that the purpose of this organization is to help prepare the student for a journalistic career and to aid him and the rest of the student body in becoming more aware of their school life.
