Early in the year the club lost a match to Cheyenne Mountain, but the players came back to win a four-way meet between Cheyenne, Was- son, Palmer, and Mitchell. Mitchell again found them- selves on top in an individual meet with Wasson. Membership in the club was three times that of last year, and the students expressed a desire to be more active. A constitution was written and ratified, enabling the club to participate in school activities. Members looked forward to having a booth in the spring carnival. This year the club was under the sponsorship of Mr. Robert King. Officers were Bob Hughs, president: Robb Storm, treasurer, Mike Schmidt, secretary: and Dave Rickard, ICC representative. Members of Chess Club, including Bob Hughs, president, study var ious game situations in preparation for an out-of-school meet.
