Grahn. The MATH CLUB provided interested students with an opportunity to investigate mathematical problems not in- cluded in their regular course of study. The knowledge they acquired at club meetings, such as learning to use the slide rule for multiplication and division, was of practical value in class. Among other things, members constructed mathematical models and demonstrated their use. The members of the CERAMICS CLUB assembled each week to learn about the making of pottery and other ceramic forms. Under careful supervision, they experimented with various techniques of making these forms. The different meth- ods that they employed were casting and plaster molds. Their imagination and creative talents were put to use in decorating their finished products in a variety of original ways with designs and decals. YW?

In order to master the fine art of cooking, the members of the BOYS' COOKING CLUB combined their talents to make such delicacies as pies, pancakes, peanut brittle, and pizza. They not only learned the fundamentals of boiling, baking, broiling and frying, but delighted in sampling their accomplishments as well. Because so many upperclassmen were driving, there was a desire on the part of many boys to learn about the mechanics of a car. The AUTOMOTIVE CLUB provided an oppor- tunity for these boys to discuss their problems and pool their knowledge. The members explained and demonstrated, when- ever possible, the various systems of a car and how they operate. The meeting place, the metal shop, enabled them to drive cars into the building and use the facilities to keep their cars in good running condition. x, 'E' we wil: Paws ' I r aj . in . JJWNQ

To build co-ordination and endurance of motion, the mem- bers of the GIRLS' GYMNAS- TICS CLUB were taught vari- ous skills in apparatus work, cal- isthenics, and tumbling. The ability to take orders was ac- quired while performing march- ing routines. As a result of their training, the girls were able to assume po- sitions as leaders in their physi- cal education classes. A new club with a new idea, the LEADERS' CLUB, was in- troduced at the beginning of the school year. The members hoped to become outstanding physical education students by participat- ing in gymnastics and team games during the club period. In the fall the boys took part in such outdoor sports as foot- ball, baseball and speedball. The winter found them on the appar- atus and climbing ropes, with wrestling as an added feature. After the members gained skill in gymnastics, they became lead- ers by helping their classmates during gym periods. Thus they made the physical education course an example of true team- ...,...l,.
