Skokie Music Club Assumes Charge of School Programs A new experiment in the way of pu- pils' clubs is being tried out at the Skokie school. Separate clubs in the various activities have been organized by the pupils themselves. One of these, the Music club, has assumed re- sponsibility for all musical programs given by the school, all assembly sing- ing, and all public announcements that concern musical activities. The club meets once a week and is presided over by the elected officers. Four committees are appointed each year, publicity, assembly, constitution and program; each group governing the jurisdiction.

Ayers Boal, Jr., Freezes Feet on Mountain Climb A story carried in last Tuesday's issue of The Dartmouth, Dartmouth University students' publication, car ries the account of a thrilling experi ence in which Ayres Boal, Jr. son of Mr. and Mrs. Ayres Boal, 701 Sheri dan road, Winnetka, sustained severely frozen feet, causing him to be con fined to the university hospital for medical attention. According to the report, Mr. Boal. who is a sophomore at Dartmouth, and a friend, F. Gulden, started from Han over, N. H, to climb to the peak of Smarts mountain, 3,200 feet above sea level. In attempting to take a short cut to the peak they became somewhat confused and eventually found them- selves at the top of an adjoining and smaller peak. Disappointed they start ed to return to Hanover but when they chanced to recross the regular trail to Smarts mountain they decided to push on to the summit. By the time they had gone about half way to the summit, however, a fierce gale and sub-zero weather had nearly exhausted their strength and throwing away food supplies and call- ing upon every ounce of strength they fought their way on to the top. Here they found the door to the cabin frozen shut and they were forced to crawl through a window. Efforts to start a fire resulted in a back-draft caused by the gale and their being driven from the cabin by the smoke. Realizing the futility of fire under such circumstances they returned and wrapped up in their blankets to keep warm. The blankets, however, were damp and Mr. Boal was unable to warm his frosted feet. After a miser- able and sleepless nicht they returned to Hanover and to the hospital.
