If-Y C1116 New! The members of the Hi-Y Club point with pride to the fact that they have just finished a most successful year. Despite the handicap of having only ten members at the beginning of the year, the society went to work with a will and did much throughout the ensuing term toward keeping aloft XVOodWard's high moral, phy- sical, and spiritual standard.
