Lettermans - GAA


The Black and Gold 1977


Tiger athletes foster competition

 Promoting friendship and unity among athletes, the Letterman's Club gave members a sense of pride in McKinley. The club, guided by Mr. Neal Takamori, included only those who were selected for membership.


 There were various social and community projects for members. Among them were working at the New Products and Food Show at the Neal S. Blaisdell Center in November, picnicking at Ala Moana Park in February, and working in the chilidog booth at the McKinley carnival.


 On Tuesdays and Thursdays girls could be seen playing a variety of sports, from swimming to bowling, and table tennis to volleyball. Those who participated in these sports were members of the Girls Athletic Association (GAA).


 Organized about ten years ago by former physical education teacher Mrs. Lois Wright, the GAA's primary purpose is to sponsor the Girls Intramural Program. They provided the officials, set up the schedule of activities, and made awards in proportion to allotments from the carnival. Their adviser now is Mrs. Jane Schroeder.


 Other GAA activities were a Welcome Picnic at Ala Moana Park in October, a Turkey Shoot Service Project before the Thanksgiving vacation, a Red Cross Walk in December, a camp at Mokuleia in January, and selling hamburgers at the February carnival.

Math - NHS

The Black and Gold 1977


National standards guide efforts

 The Math Club continued its efforts of promoting mathematics by sponsoring the McKinley Math Team and arranging a math meet between Central, Kawananakoa and Washington Intermediate schools in March. Under the advisership of Mrs. Reverie Suzuki, they were actively involved with the Math League and the Mathematics Association of America (MAA) Exam. Further activities involved tutoring students at Kaahumanu Elementary School, field trips, service projects, and engaging speakers to talk on career opportunities. In a lighter non-mathematical vein, members of the Math Club joined forces with National Honor Society members to compete against other clubs and organizations in the Christmas Song Contest.


 As in previous years, the energetic National Honor Society chapter of McKinley began the year by helping with the fall registration. On October 17, they had an introduction party for all members at adviser Mrs. Yun Soon Jim's home. In December, they entered McKinley's song contest. During Christmas vacation, members, and Mrs. Jim, took a trip to Hilo where they spent three days visiting many sights from Hilo to Kona and back to Hilo. They worked at the Cultural Plaza Health Fair and took part in and helped their adviser, who was chairman, at the Narcissus Festival Cultural Event in February. There were district council get-togethers where members participated in quiz bowls, also.
