SERVICE CLUB Even though the Service Club is just in its second year of existence, it has become one of the school’s major clubs. With Paul Kennedy as its pres- ident, the members have rendered many useful services, such as typing and running errands, for our faculty and student body. LATIN CLUB The Junior Classical League of Westbury, under the direction of Miss Keevil, has made its second year of life quite full of activities, which include the dramatization of a play in Latin, research on Roman banquets, and individual research on debts that our civilization owes to the Roman culture. 12

BAND Lots of credit should be given our band for their great improvement in the past year. Besides play- ing for many assemblies, they also made the inter- missions of the Senior Play quite enjoyable. Mr. Dougherty took over the leadership of the band in December. CHORUS What the chorus lacks in number, it makes up with enthusiasm. By its participation in the en- joyable Christmas assembly, Westbury’s chorus has shown good prospects under the able direction of Miss Meduna.
