The directors and officers of the Center express themselves as well pleased with the progress made to date and feel that with the conâ€" tinued cooperation of the community it cannot fail in its purpose of givâ€" ing Highland Park a Communty Center second to none. One of the viceâ€"presidents is slated to be in charge of organization and extension, another will head recreaâ€" tional activities and the third will be in charge of the club‘s social program. Members will be charged for dues on the basis of fifty cents for the first year and one dollar for each year thereafter. After considerable discussion it was decided to limit membership to residents of Highland Park only. A junior membership for boys from 16 to 18 years of age was set up allowâ€" ing them all the privileges of the organization with the exception of the power to vote. Meetings of the organization are to be held once a month, preferably on Monday evenings. The executive board is to meet quarterly. Before adjourning for the afternoon the group agreed to hold its next meetâ€" ing at the Center on March 3 at 3 p.m. Every young man interested in the club and its activities is strongly urged to attend this meetâ€" ing.

Last Sunday afternoon‘s meeting was conducted by Dr. Baker M. Hamilton, chairman of the club‘s temporary organization committee. George Bowden acted as secretary. In his preliminary remarks, Dr. Hamilton outlined the purposes of the club stressing its nonâ€"political and nonâ€"sectarian policies. He also presented for the groups approval a suggested framework of organizaâ€" tion. This suggested form of orâ€" ganization calls for a president, three viceâ€"presidents, a secretary, a treasurer and a board of three trusâ€" tees, one of which is to be elected for one year, one for two years and one for three years.
