The motto of the club is Cada cual es hi jo de sus obras” (Each one is the son of his works); its flower is the madreselva (honeysuckle); its flag and coat-of-arms are those of Uruguay. Games and social activities such as parties are held at regular monthly meetings. Two technicolor movies were shown. The primary purpose of La Alianza Espanola is to supplement classroom work so as to increase the students’ interest in the subject and to provide various materials which promote efficiency in the language and add general knowledge of educational value. Typing Club The Typing Club, under the direction of Miss Bierman, is composed of students who wish to learn to type but are unable to fit typing into their regular schedules.

We learn the fundamentals of librarianship, help the librarian in taking care of the library and encourage our fellow students to use books more efficiently. One accomplishment this year has been the assuming of responsibility for the library for two periods each day. We entertained the faculty at Christmas time. We ourselves have had several pleasant social events. The success of the library is due, in large part, to the conscientiousness of each club member. Press Club Under the guidance of Miss Jensen and Miss Bierman the students in the Press Club assemble the school news which appears in The Washington Stai each week. They collect and submit news of club activities and articles to publicize social events of the school such as dances, parties, and money-raising campaigns. These students have gained valuable journalistic experience through the Left to Right: Dorothy Fowler, Miss Bierman, Jean Walsh, Joyce writing of their weekly articles.

Topics discussed this year were mathematical puzzles and recreations, short cuts in arithmetic, and lives and contributions of famous mathematicians. Officers: x-Ray DeBoer; y-Waltcr Bolmer; z-Grace Godfrey; Significant figure, Miss Weller.
