The purpose of this club is entirely social, and it is famous for its hilarious entertainment. Each class in its turn, some time during the year, plays host to the other classes, and they have full responsif bility for decorations, entertainment, and refreshments.

Really the biggest item on the list of Spanishfl..atin Club activities was the Circus Concession, with Kathlyn McGarrahan as chairman. The money taken in this way is to be spent on something for the SpanishfLatin Def partment.

The members meet and work under the capable direction of Miss Gilbert. They have no officers as yet, but expect to hold an election soon after the next school term begins. The aim of the junior Red Cross is to assist the National Red Cross in every way possible. This year they have done mostly paper work, such as Christmas menu cards for ships at sea, Christmas card booklets for naval hospitals, etc., and they did a very fine job of putting on the annual Junior Red Cross Drive in our school. The boys, under the direction of Mr. Hainline in Vxfoodshop, are makf ing games, bed tables, and other things of Wood. To the junior Red Cross Club we extend a hearty voice of appreciation. oligrariand Our very efficient librarian, Miss Pearl Connell, is assisted by a number of students who voluntarily give their time to helping their classmates find reference material, checking out their books, and keeping books and cards in repair. These librarians receive no reward for their fine work, but give their time URTY I and effort entirely for the good of the school. Sometimes they may feel as though their efforts are not appref ciated, for students often neglect to give them a smile or a thank you, but here's to you student librarians and Miss Connell! To you we extend our heartiest vote of thanks. We're really grateful. .l. Jensen. A, Ruesch. CIfNTlzR Row: C. Noteboom. P. McCormick. D. Hieber. A, Leech. B. Hale. B. Philyaw. FRoNT Row: L. Siwula.

LQ'M9 Crew Ui course, no play would be com' plete without the makefup crew, who do the work behind the scenes. This energetic little group come early to make up the cast. Theirs is the ref sponsibility of seeing that the big bold villain doesn't look as though he's blushing, while the poor little sick girl must look pale and anemic. Do they do a good job? You bet they do! Another group that deserves recognif tion is the stage crew. Bert McCreight, Bill Blonn, jerry Martin, and Bob Wzilters, are the strapping stalwartsn who shift the stage furniture around so easily. And they, too, are the ones responsible for the effective dimming of the lights just at the right time. ramaficd Among the most important events of the school year are the class plays. Every year the junior and Senior classes wage a war of competition trying to outfdo the other in both acting and salesmanship. The Junior Class play, Tomboy, was a real success. Kato Reinier, as the tomboy, had us all in spasms with her sarcastic witticisms about her more ladyflike sisters. The Senior Class play Little Women, was taken from the book of the same name by Louisa May Alcott. roizrv-'nw 1 The originality of this selection was heightened by the acting ability of the cast. Shirley Sabine was perfect as lo, and Betty Sieloff was a bewitching Amy. Billie Scillian, as Beth, died so convincingly that handkerchiefs were wrung out here and there, and people glanced around furtively to see if any' one was looking, dabbed surreptiously at their tears, and looked sheepish if anyone caught them at it. That is, they looked sheepish until they saw that trace of a tear in the other person's eye, too. The class of '45 scored a hit!
