Wendell Graddy Secretary-Treasurer -- ---Clarence Moore At the start of the 1932 school year Mr. Christian, because of a lack of coopera- tion decided to abandon the idea of a Hi-Y club. Then a number of the boys aided by Miss Griswold pledged their cooperation and Mr. Christian again agreed to lead the club. Their first good-will endeavor was at Thanksgiving when many baskets were filledg this was again done at Christmas. The first social high-light was the Hi-Y banquet, which the members and their fathers attended. A fine speech by 'gDoc', Lewis was the outstanding feature of the evening. The annual Hi-Y party held on March 15th was a huge success with a fine orchestra, good food, and real amusements. Mr. Christianis efforts and good leadership helped the Hi-Y to one of its most successful years. I ' ,l Page I rrvlllv-llzrvr' ll MIN ..l KU KU LL CE KU CQ vx E KU

Much charity work was done by the club: first, the donation of baskets as the annual Thanksgiving offering, and then a similar procedure at Christmas. The girls made pillow slips to give to an orphans' home, and at Easter the girls made toys for the same purpose. An important spring event was the Mothers, and Daughters, banquet given at the Y. W.

-I KTN t IE E 3 CI UU FIT :JU '11 -1 FIN FIT I'- L7 The Glee Clubs The Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs combined this year to present the first musical comedy that has been presented at Wellston High School in four years. ' Oh Doctorln was a fast-moving and highly entertaining piece of work. It concerned an affair which took place at Drinkwater Sanitarium, operated by Dr. Drinkwater, this part was played very successfully by Carl Bewig. Dr. Drinkwater had disowned his only son because he had married an actress. His wife had died, grieving for her son and left her money to his orphaned daughter, Glory, played by Dolores Moore, only on the condition that she spend the last twenty-four hours before her twenty-first birthday with her grandfather, Dr. Drinkwater. Glory, an actress, wishing to obtain her grandmotherls money and at the same time keep an appointment to make a talking picture in South America, conceived the idea of sending her friend Honor, played by Florence Williams, who has a sick mother, to the Sanitarium in her place. Her grandfather had never seen her. When Honor and her mother, whom she introduced as her foster mother, arrived at the Sani- tarium, the fun and troubles began. The hero in this play was a ranger, who fell in love with Glory, this part was portrayed by ,lack Percival. Carl Bewig, Jack Percival, Billy Stillman, and Florence Williams are to be especially complimented on their rendition of the pleasing musical selections. The Glee Clubs also offered several selections at the P. T. A. meetings. During Christmas week, they attended a presentation at Christ Church Cathedral. Miss Marr, our hard-working and cooperative sponsor, is planning to have the Glee Clubs sing over the radio some time in June. She was also instrumental in obtaining Mr. Ernest Kroeger, a famous composer, the Westminster Glee Club, and the Maplewood High School Band for our entertainment. The clubs are now preparing for their participation in the graduating exercises. The officers of the Girls' Glee Club are: President ..,..... ....... .... F l orence Williams Secretary --- ....
