Page Four Friday, November 29,1940 THE AMPLIFIER CLUB ADVICE Fathers Give Son's Banquet By GLENN CAMPBELL On Tuesday, December 3rd, at 6:30 p. m., the rafters of West Linn high school’s cafeteria will resound to the pleasant sound of men and boys enjoying what is slated to be a gastronomical ex travaganza. I better add in way of explanation that next Tues day is the date set for the Father and Son Banquet. A banquet has been an annual affair here at West Linn and has 'been spon sored by the Boys club, but this year the dads plan to reverse the procedure by first giving the boys a treat and sponsoring a banquet themselves. The father-son sup per sponsored by the boys will be held in the spring as usual. The Dads club under the leadership of Mr. Elliott and Mr. M. I. Gil- ette have sent out invitations to all the dads and all remains in readiness for next Tuesday. As far as your reporter could find out the annual tug of war between the dads and tfye sons will not be held, but the pro gram that is planned to follow the banquet promises to be a really enjoyable entertainment. The boys are urged by the Dads club to get behind the ban quet and their dads so as to be sure they attend, so that this year’s Father and Son banquet can be the most successful in West Linn’s history.

"HOME OF GOOD MEATS" THE By SMOKEY ANDERSON The success of any group, large or small, depends on the attitude taken by the individual person in the group. To establish an at titude that is helpful to all, one must have some part in the group and it is this need that the clubs and. activities of West Linn high are fulfilling. To a freshman the student body is his or her main object, and as the year goes on and he comes into contact with the school, he finds that he has the privilege to enter the student body activities that are the foundation of the demo cratic government. The legisla tures, the court, the cabinet, the police force, and many others are the opportunities, that a student desires. The greatest ambition of any student is to make good in his choosen subject. That desire en ables him under the competent leadership of his advisors to join the club that is sponsored by this subject. For instance a French ® 10.v ma F mëns wear student may join the French club, a German student the German club and a large number of other clubs, sponsored by the subject. Still another group of clubs that a student may join are the honor clubs. Under this group comes the Hi-Y and the Honor society. The greatest boost that a student can have to get in these clubs is the fact that he js a member, taking active part, in as many other clubs as possible. The music department of West Linn offers a grand opportunity for a musical student. The band, heading the group, is just one of the many fields offered by this department. One of the largest and most ac tive clubs in the school is the F. F. A. club. This club spon sored by the Agricultural depart ment is in a nation wide organ ization and the West Linn chap- WESTLINN ter is one of those well known in the state. The two largest clubs in West Linn, are the Boys club and Girls league. The requirements that a student must meet to be a elig ible for membership is that they must attend West Linn and that the school be foremost in their mind. These two clubs are per haps better known than any other in school in as much as their work is carried on directly with parents of all students and it is often remarked that the work done by he Boys club and Girls League, is outstanding, soc ially and educational.
