HI-Y
CLUB

The Hi-Y Club
is "a group of older high school boys who are seeking for themselves and
their fellow students the highest standards of life and conduct."
The term "Hi-Y" was made to suggest the mutual relationships of the boys
to the High School and the Y.M.C.A.
The club has
always been very active and this year it aided in the formation of the
Tri-Y. Basketball and bowling teams were formed.
The basketball team won all the games it played. The bowling team
was not as successful, but it beat the women teachers by ninety-two pins.
A more than
satisfactory profit was gained from a minstrel show given by the Hi-Y and
Tri-Y. Some of this money has been used to purchase ping-pong
tables. The boys gave a Christmas party with the Tri-Y in attendance,
and a buffet supper was held for the basketball team.

Treasurer
-- Roberta Minor
The Tri-Y Club
was started in November, 1936 as the girls' equivalent to the boys' Hi-Y.
It is an organization that stives for "High standards of Christian Conduct
by clean living, noble thoughts, and a reverent spirit."
As their aim
of the year, the members have chosen a Vocational Guidance program in which
each one writes about the career most interesting to her. At the
end of the year these papers will be compiled and put in the school library
for the use of other students similarly interested.
Some of the
high points in the year's entertainment were the talk about China by Miss
Faye Robinson and the one on costume-designing by Miss Laura Wood.
On other nights the girls had bowling, swimming, and roller-skating parties.
THE
ART CLUB
President
-- Ronald Rood
Vice-President
-- Kathleen Jenkins
Secretary
-- Dorothy Pratt
Treasurer
-- Dorcas Brown
The Art Club
was started in October under the direction of Mr. Dwight Curtiss with the
assistance of Miss Novak. Our first attempt at the art of drawing
was sketching in charcoal. We did several scenes, profiles, and objects
against dark backgrounds, which we exhibited at the Freshman-Sophomore
Reception.
The club held
a dance one Friday afternoon to raise funds for supplies. The attendance
numbered ten and the profits $1.90. The high school orchestra played.
Several times the club has cooperated in making posters for high school
plays and social events.
Meetings were,
however, discontinued when the new schedule went into effect, but the club
hopes to reorganize next year. At that time new members will
be welcomed.
TENNIS
CLUB
President
-- Annette Williams
Secretary
-- Amelia Boglarski
Treasurer
-- Mary Sadoski
The Tennis
Club, a comparatively new organization, is made up of twenty members.
The purpose of the club is to instruct those interested in tennis.
Most of the members are new at the game but it is hoped that they will
learn it readily.
The club is
under the leadership of Miss Kilbride. She is assisted by
Annette
Williams, at whose court the games are played.
ORCHESTRA
Under the able
direction of Mr. Miller the T.H.S. Orchestra has become an attribute to
the extra-curricular activities of the school. The orchestra meets
for practice each Thursday in the school.
The orchestra
consists of two piano players, Shirley Barnes and Elise Taylor;
four violins, Albert Wollenberg, Felix Murawski, Arline
Johnson, and Miriam Boyington; one trumpet, Robert Tolles;
two saxophone, Francis Gibbs and Thomas McDonough; one trombone,
Warren
Reynolds; two clarinets, Wendell Plumb and Frederick Mathes;
and a drummer, Melvin MacBurney.
The orchestra
is a help to those who are still taking lessons as it affords practice
in reading and in keeping time. The members enjoy playing at
banquets, suppers, and other social events of the town.
BASKETBALL
The Terryville High School basketball team completed the season as champions
of the Western Connecticut Interscholastic League with a total of seven
victories out of the eight games played.
Due to their
exceptional playing during this last season, T. Kiejna and E.
Kowalsky were elected by their team mates to be co-captains of next
year's basketball team.

GIRLS'
BASKETBALL
The girls'
team had an unsuccessful season for 1936-37, but we can say that they are
improving--they won one game this year.
The Thomaston
game was the first of the year and although the girls put up a stiff fight
they were defeated by a score of 30-21. In the next game the girls
were rather badly beaten by an Alumnae team made up of Terryville's former
stars such as Betty Lawton, Steffie Letitia, and Lucy Dzielenski.
The Watertown
game, played in the afternoon, was a dreadful setback to the team.
Score 22-6.
Wonder of wonders,
the girls won a game--that with Farmington. No one was more
surprised, than they. The final score after a thrilling game
was 33-26. In the next three games, those with Simsbury, Watertown
and Morse Business College, the score went against the Terryville girls
as usual. The Watertown game, however, was the biggest disappointment
for the Terryville girls were in the lead at the half.
In the second
games with Simsbury and Farmington the girls were defeated by scores which
will not bear repeating. During the Thomaston game the girls put
up a good fight, but were defeated by a score of 35-25.
The season
ended with the game between Terryville, and the American School for the
Deaf. The girls were swamped.
The material
on hand for next year is said to be in the running for a winning team.
