SCIENCE CLUB

     Lately Glenridge has been organizing several clubs. Among these are the Science and Math Clubs.
     The Science Club is sponsored by Mr. Alabough of 8-1. It's members are Robie Vestal, president, Bob Sutphen, first vice-president, Bill Hunkapiller, Sandra Martina, Sharon Mitchell, Tommy Holliday, Carrie O'Rork, Herb Hanks, Joe Mozzer, Bill Springs, treasurer, and Lois Rayle, secretary.
      The club meets every second Tuesday in every month at 8:00 to 9:30 PM.
      When the club expands, the group will be divided. Bob Sutphen will be the president of the second group and the vice-president will be elected.
      The club purpose is to go further into science and different subjects of science than is possible in regular science classes. It is also going to try to get more science equipment for the science rooms in school.

MATH CLUB

     The Math Club right now is small but the sponsor, Mr. Sewell, says I'd prefer a small group rather than a large one. It's members are Robbie Robinson, Jack Schmidt, Jimmy McCord, Jerry Meed, David Payne, and Oliver Staley. The club doesn't have any officers.
     They meet in Mr. Sewell's room every Thursday morning from 8:00 to 8:30.
     The club has made an electric scope but as yet it doesn't work because the right materials are not available.
     They are studying atomic energy at present.
     The club might take a trip later this year but Mr. Sewell says, "Later on."

8-6 GOES ST. AUGUSTINE

     St. Augustine is a beautiful place according to my homeroom, 8-6.
     We were the fortunate class that was able to visit St. Augustine on October 29. While in St. Augustine, we saw the old fort where Osceola was held prisoner. We also saw the oldest house, the slave market, Potter's Wax Museum, Ripley's Believe It or Not house, and the oldest school house.
     We all missed the other members of the class who were unable to come.
     Our teacher found a wonderful idea for the naughty children in the oldest school house. It was very small room, just large enough for one person and very dark indeed. When the old school was in use, the teachers used to put the naughty child inside and the child would stay there until the teacher thought he had enough punishment. I don't think our teacher has talked to Mr. Stockard about it yet and I Hope she won't have to. We would like to thank Mrs. Webb, Mrs. Wattles, and Mr. Broyles for being so kind as to transport us and hope they enjoyed the trip as much as we did.
     The people who went were Mrs. Sory, Mrs. Webb, Mrs. Wattles, Mr. Broyles, Jody Smith, Tommy Holliday, Gee Gee Wattles, Chip Emerson, Pat La Croix, Patti Bates, Sandra Sconyers, Carolyn Webb, Michael Fox, Bill Sprig, Kathy Stone, and Judy Broyles.

THE NAMING OF THE SCHOOL PAPER

     A couple of weeks ago the first copy of our School Paper was put out. Since the paper had no name, we here at Glenridge started a campaign to name it. At first this seemed very easy - all you had to do was vote on one of the names sent in by the students. You would cast your vote by dropping pennies into jars labeled with those names sent in by the students. This, however, didn't work out so we voted again. Still this didn't work out. The rooms sent in the name that their rooms had chosen as the best. Three were chosen as best - "The Ticker Tape", "The Glenridge Echo", and "The Glenridge Kilt". We voted once more and the Glenridge Kilt was chosen. Joanne Ross is the girl who sent in the winning name. She was awarded a check for $1.00 in Assembly.
