.. . , -..1afE5,f-ziifffff:fffffiij S C I E N C E C LU B CHARLES CONDON-HARRY FULLER Hello, folks! The Science Club greets you again. You needn't look for our pic- tures this time, for We were politely told by readers that when we appeared before we ooked like theological graduates. We are willing to admit that We look like graduates but before we appear again, we intend to wait until our study of science makes us look more scientific and less pious. Our club is not large, not because we are selfish, for we really would like to share our benefits and pleasures and fun with others, but we can't lasso people and make them sign the roll if they don't care for what we enjoy. We take this opportunity to announce that our policy has changed and that we are now convinced that girls are as scien- tific as boys and we would be glad to have their help in our researches. Come on, girls get in on the fun! We study he various sciences, photo- gaphy, Zoology, bacteriololgy, first aid and botany. On Saturdays, if the weather per- mits, we take a hike. To let you know what fun we have on these hikes, here is an account of a hike to Meremac Highlands: We started about half past seven and af- tera period of misery on the Manchester car, we arrived. We were quite adven- turous and descended a quarry wall with results disastrous to our clothes. One of the members heard a whistle and thought he had discovered a new kind of bird, but Miss McGinnis said it was a train whistle! Then we discovered a cave and started in, but broken bottles and snake holes halted us. However, since we have be- come somewhat more familiar with the out- doors and snakes, we feel more friendly toward them. We crossed a brookg several of the members falling in, and began ex- plorations. After collecting specimens of leaves and watching birds, we ate lunch. It was pretty good except for a few ashes which had adhered to the food. Now then, everyone come out and join and get in on this fun. 3 Page Eighly-Six

ff .- QW 4 ' . fir! +J',, ., ' ., ,,,.,.,, ...X YEATM AN GYM C LU B FRED JANSSEN The Yeatman Gym Club is an organiza- tion composed of Yeatman boys whose ob- ject is to build strong bodies and good char- acters, to train the boys to be able to help in the gym classes, and to give opportun- ity for advanced work. These objects may be realized through persistent effort and companionship with the instructor and fel- low members. New members were taken this term if they had had previous experience in gym- nastic work in addition to the qualifica- tions mentioned. In the first week of February an election was held and the following officers were elected: President ............,.,. Oscar Schlebe Vice President ............

The beautiful tableau was especially praised. Dr. Wolfner of the school board, and other well known speakers were present. In our instructor, Hans G. Lehrman, we have a man whose spirit of success has so fired the members of the club that his name will not be forgotten in Yeatman history. He is a bundle of nerves and pep. As Mr. Rathman, the Assistant Superintendent of Schools once said, People like Mr. Lehr- man and myself walk off below what we put on, on top. I take the opportnuty here to thank Dr. Gaueb in behalf of the club for his time, service, and helpful suggestions when we most needed them. Boys, come into the Gym Club!
