Radio Club The Radio Club, one ot the youngest in the school, is comprised oi twelve boys interested in amateur radio. One ot the purposes ot the club is to teach the meni- bers the theory ot radio and the Inter- national Morse code, so that they may pass the Federal Communications exams tor their amateur licenses. ln an ettort to bolster national morale, a program ot Trainee Message handling was success- fully carried out. Two amateur stations, WQIIB, with Merritt Olson, operator, and WQSMP, with George Weible as operator, handled over 250 messages tor the stu- dents and teachers, to their friends in the various army camps throughout the na- tion, including all United States posses- sions and posts. Since the war, however, all communications have been prohibited. At the present time, club members are studying the Morse code, theory, and working out some very interesting experi- ments on high voltages in vacuums.

To the Conservation Club should go the deepest commendation from all lovers ot nature tor the splendid service they performed last summer-that of helping to plant over 27,000 trees in newer parks of Wausau. The club has obtained a piece of land three miles south ot Rilo Mountain from the county on a 99 year lease. This spring in the month ot May, while the rest ot us will be autographing Wahis- cans and taking those horrible tinal exams, all the club members will be busily planting about 25,000 trees and anxiously await- ing summer when they contem- plate on building a Conservation Club cottage on their land. Con- servation is not conversation to them. They do it!

The world's work is never done! As we stand upon life's threshold, oppor- tunity looms greater than ever before. High school graduates will be in demand. Instead of madly scrambling for a few available jobs during depression years, young people of brains, courage, skill, and practical arts such as typing, book- keeping, shorthand, home economics, drafting and mechanics, will be faced with a multitude of opportunities this summer. lt is our duty as future American citi- portunities offered, by preparing and training now, to make this a better coun- 'ry in which to live when peace carries e again Home Economics Club The Way to a Mans Heart Is Through His Stomach But that isnt the main function of the Home Economics Club This industrious organ ization convenes twice a month one a busin ss meeting the other a social festivity with speakers or special entertainment The ice cream bars are supplied by these girls at the football and basketball hops Th proceeds are contributed to the Waugonian council Tasty sandwiches served at teach rs me tings are the products of the club as well Gs the delicious coffee vis P r al . , -1 1 9 I I l . . 9 , 9 .
