The social life of the club is limited to two or three Vic dances during the year and a picnic at the close of school. Last June it Was held at Kelson's cottage at Sebago Lake. In addition to boating and swimming, a lobster bake was en- joyed. Mr. Jensen supervised the cooking of some eighty lobsters for the twenty members.

Club One look at the trophy case will tell you that in Westbrook our athletes win. Why? you ask. Well, Westbrook High is most fortunate in having a very well rounded athletic program. Basic fundamentals for competitive sports start with our exceptionally good physical education program. It is here that our future stars get their incentive. Why does a small school like Westbrook turn out such excellent athletes? Because we Westbrookians have a sincere desire to win which dates back over the years. Why do boys compete? There are many reasons, but these two stand out: One is that they love the sport, the other is that most of them receive a NW. But winning a letter isn't just getting a sweater with a W on it by any means. It serves as a sort of reward for all the hard work they have put into the game. It signifies their ability to learn teamwork, and quick thinking, and also develops their strong will to win, which will help them in their future professions. It will also help them to become leaders who will represent Westbrook in the best pos- sible way. - Those who have learned all these things by playing are now members of a club called the W Club, which consists of having a membership in the student athletic club. This year's W Club officers are Donald Harriman, president, Priscilla Harvey, secretaryg and Florence Frost, treasurer. l l 1

H. A. Club consists of girls Who have taken Home Economics at least one year While they have been in high school. The members of this club have a chance for advancement by Working over a period of time on a project and re- ceiving degrees for their effort. If you were to drop in on one of the F. H. A. meetings, you would probably find them planning a meeting With an F. H. A. Club from another school. As a result, there Wouldbe a lot of hurrying and scurrying about to prepare a line luncheon for the guests. This meeting pro- vides an opportunity for both schools concerned to exchange ideas. A club is not complete Without a symbol. The symbol of our club is a house supported by a pair of hands, meaning that each member of the club has the responsibility of the home in her hands. These responsibilities include the care of the house itself, the care of the children, and her own personal care. The meetings are called at the discretion of the president. The student leaders in this club are president, Joan Millerg vice-president, Gloria Googinsg secretary, Pat Cousins, treasurer, Shirlee Maleyg and parliamentarian, Dorothy Arey. These girls are guided by Mrs. Fairchild and Mrs. Simonton, both of whom are homemakers in this field as Well as teachers. Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home.
