POETS ' WORKSHOP Members of the Poets ' Workshop, the Willard Poetry Club, have been doing most interesting work under the sponsorship of Mrs. Shulgin. Al- though it has been a busy semester, we have enjoyed the fellowship that comes in an organization where there are common interests and aspira- tions. Most enjoyable have been our original poem days, our celebrations of special days, our verse writing games, and the compiling of our club ' s book of original verse. The frontispiece for this book of original verse was designed by Paula Joy. The officers are Patty Hardy (president) , Paula Joy (vice-president) , Diana Farnham (secretary), Helen Louise Evans (librarian), Quentin Griffiths (recorder), Ruth Meads (sergeant-at-arms) , Marthel Greves (editor-in-chief), Sylvia Kiosterud (assistant editor). The following are members: Peter Allen, David Alter, Eva Blanchard, Marie Brown, Paula Bruen, Carmen Coy Burr, Janice Cardwell, Bill Cantrell, Happy Coyle, Elinor Crocker, Adrienne De Journette, Mary Anne Delmore, Heidi De Witt, Nancy De Witt, Carolyn Dobbs, John Fairchild, Mary Dozier Finley, Jean Follette, Martha Ford, Kathleen Fox, Margaret Frylink, Jack Gill, Eugene Harter, Janet Hay, Alice Hemmings, Ruth Higginbotham, Marilyn Holmes, Thelma Hume, Mary Kobayashi, James Keilty, Tania La Garde, David Locke, Ann Maslin, Louise Miller, Jane Ellen Newman, Maxine Phillips, Margaret Poston, Billy Proctor, Mary June Schendel, Elynor Schwab, Lorraine Sharp, Sasha Shulgin, Marjorie Silva, Mary Stevens, Anita Turner, Betty Wallace, Janice Wick- line. The Sword (From the Workshop) When the seas roll back on a lifeless land, When the earth is a dying spark, When the nights and days of our life today, Have lengthened into dark, When the world has become a speck of dust And is washed away by the rain, When Time has collected his toll at last, Something will remain: A sword that is sheathed in a million hearts And wrapped in eternal fire, A sword that is life and is truth and is love And happiness and desire. Diana Farnham. 31

String Quartette The Willard String Quartette has enrolled Peggy Lee Erdman, Dawn Ginchardt, Sherman Hay, and John Shea. They played at our Citizen- ship Party, at Odd Fellows ' Hall, and wherever a call has come. Cello Quartette The Cello Quartette has a membership including Mr. Salisbury, Mary Bennett, Sherman Hay, and Oliver Turpen. Thev were heard on the Ex- change Club Program of April twenty-fourth and at the Masonic Temple on May eighth. They have contributed generously to the pleasure of many this season. Dance Orchestra The Willard Dance Orchestra is our newest musical organization, sponsored and directed by Mr. Salisbury. They played for the physical education demonstration on Spring Day and they play regularly for our Friday Dances. The members are Joe Ambrose, Louis Bennett, Virginia Carleton, Pete Lowe, Anita Magneson, Lloyd Minear, Jerome Richard- son, John Shea, Bill Shuey, Harold Wolf, and Bertram Zalkind. It ' s every Friday afternoon from three-thirty to four-thirty that we have the dances. Since the gymnasium has been condemned, we have been holding them in the cafeteria, which has served the purpose very well. They provide a happy conclusion to the week ' s schedule of events and add a great deal to the social activity of Willard. The admission is five cents. This money has financed the school emblems, the shuffleboard sets, and some of the Target cuts. Willard Girl Reserves The Low Eighth Girl Reserve Club, Las Amigas, meets every Tues- day in the cement cottage at the close of the ninth period. The members are Betty Jane Chubb (president), Betty Eames (vice-president), Mar- garet Doane (se cretary), Sylvia Scott (treasurer), Marthel Greves and Sue Richardson (song leaders), Mary McManus (inter-club council rep- resentative) , Barbara Bush, Barbara Germain, Peggy Irwin, Bethene Mor- ton, Kay Pearce, Betty Rose, Betty Thompson, and Patsy Whitby. Our sponsor is Mrs. Allen. This term we have had a skating party at Rollerland, a supper-hike at John Garber Park, a swimming party, and a party for some of the younger clubs. Some of the girls have been interested in the crafts, dramatics, and dancing at the Y. W. C. A. on Saturday mornings. On June first there was a Recognition Service at the Y. M. C. A., when some of the girls were Recognized , and others received pins. 30
