GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB— BOYS ' GLEE CLUB— HIGH NINE CHORAL Odds and Ends I ' ve tried my hand at poems, I ' ve tried to climb a tree, I ' ve tried to do just everything, But they just don ' t suit me, So now that I am growing old, I cease to think of that And spend my time at checkerboards, Declaring, Oh, my hat! Ronald Naess. Everybody Can Everybody can smile Either at work or play, Smile to shorten each mile, Each task along the way. Betty Fankhauser. 17

TUMBLING CLUB — TENNIS PLAYERS The Tumbling Club The oldest club in Willard? That ' s us, the Willard Tumblers, now under the spon- sorship of Coach Luther. Although young in years, we are experts, a :d you can ' t upset our pyramids with the muscle control and coordination we have developed. We ' re tum- bling for a gym, too. Happy landings! Tumblers: Armando De Mingo, Stuart Duncan, Dan Elkins, Bill Gracey, Bud Hansen, Teddy Merrill, Henry Schaub, Lester Scully, Werlie Gleason, Pat Stripp, Donald Vance, Bob White. The Chess Club Your move, check! How often these words are spoken as the Chess Club gets together. Every week the chessmen come out of their boxes, and the members endeavor to learn the fine points of this brains-taking game. The competition is keen, but oh, what fun it is to be coached by Mr. Harrison when he is a kibitzer. One of the real values of chess is the practice in concentration it gives to the player. Chess players may well be called the power behind the throne for they have the will that moves kings and queens. Membership: Mr. Harrison (sponsor), Park Abbott, Bob Dable, John De Martini, Stuart Duncan (president), Neil Falconer (vice-president), Werlie Gleason, Hisashi Higashi, Malcolm Magruder, William McDonald, Conon Molody, Arthur Morgan, Toshiko Sagimori, Helen Schauppner, Dave Sherwin, Richard Siler, Russell Smith, Pat Stripp, Bill Thompson, Paul Trometter, Bill Weston, Gerald Whipple (secretary), Ilene Wilkinson, Stanley Willett, Walter Williamson, Stanley Wilson, Peter Wolff. 16

CLtf CLM6CRS The Girls ' Glee Club The Girls ' Glee Club, under the direction of Mrs. Allen, has just concluded a imst interesting and enjoyable term. The High Nine Members of the club sang two songs at the Girls ' League Mother-Daughter Tea on April 23. At a meeting of the teachers of the Berkeley Junior and Senior High Schools, the club rendered two r umbers. The mothers of the Girls ' and Boys ' Glee Clubs gave these two organizations a party on May 26. Mrs. Allen and Mrs. Kellogg were presented with corsages. Both Glee Clubs sang, refreshments were served, and a dance was enjoyed by all. As the climax to their term ' s work, an operetta, The Ni-ty Shop, was presented at the P.T.A. Program on June 3. This was a delightful one-act musical comedy, in which a chorus modeled the latest spring fashions. The cast included Marilyn Gordon (Madame Lazare), Betty Henderson (Olga), Patricia Packard (Mrs. Goldore), Barbara Kindt (Bess Goldore), Lois Hiester (Jackie Goldore), Carolyn Dobbs (Rosemary), Adrienne De Journette (Janet), and a chorus of Models.

The Boys ' Glee C lub All Willard ' s music organizations are able to contribute to the pleasure of an audience at any time, and the Boys ' Glee Club is no exception. Throughout the term they have been doing their part in the activities of Willard. They have performed for the P.T.A. , on our program of entertainment for the faculties of the secondary schools of Berkeley, and on the evening of the same date they put on a program for the Willard Dads ' Club in answer to a request made by that organization. The semester may well be termed a total success from every standpoint, the personal benefit derived from the excellent train- ing received, the fine contacts made, and the joy of sharing the results of that excellent training with those who have been privileged to hear them.
