The constitu- tion was revised. The racks for bicycles which were begun the preceding spring were completed and installed, greatly improving the appearance of the grounds at the rear of the building. Friday afternoon dancing classes were con- ducted for the fourth successive year with many students taking advantage of instruction for a small fee. In April a dance was held to pay for printing Handbooks for Freshmen which are to be dis- tributed next year. Mimeographed booklets of rules were given to Freshmen this year. The extra-curricular limitations program was drawn up and will be put into effect next year. This will make possible a better distribution of offices and activities over a larger number of students. The Red Cross drive netted 3542.15 and the In- fantile Paralysis drive netted 34315. Girls from the Council also solicited in the factories for the Kiwanis Club Milk Fund.

To these friendships we hold so dear. But now we must turn from these carefree days But now that this moment at last has come, Before us new tasks unfold We will part with a sad goodbye We will strive to uphold all the standards high To the happiest days that we ever knew- As we firmly seek our goal. Days we spent in Whitman High.
