This building was the first in
Washington to be offered for
use in holding interracial
meetings.
Democratic in organization
as well as Christian in spirit,
the Y Is governed by its
community Of women. Its
members elect their president
and board of directors and by
their requests, influence the
organizations program. To-
day, golf, fishing and several
types Of dancing are included
in a broad health program
because members asked for
them. The same Is true Of
courses in such things as
painting, languages and
household mechanics In the
educational program.
Though best known as the
working girls friend, the Y
has been particularly con-
cerned In recent years with
the problems Of young moth
ers. It was to give mothers
who said they needed time
for relaxation or shopping,
but had no one to leave the
children with, that the "Pent-
house Playpen' was set up on
the seventh floor Of the Y
building. While mother takes
a swim, attends a class or goes
shopping, baby Is watched by
a professional staff.
Last year, the suburban
housewife who could not get
to the Y found the Y coming
to her. The "YWCA on
Wheels - q trained worker and
a station wagon which take
classes to homes, served 2.749
women In It's first year Of

the organization into new
space at $50 e street NV.
and a new, faster type Of
lunch service. That same
year, the Y, introducing the
first informal education pro-
gram In Washington, offered
classes in millinery, dressmak-
ing, sewing and English liter
ature. Before World War I,
the Y had scored three more
''f1rstS" in Washington: It had
set up the first housing bu-
reau, opened the first swim
ming pool for women and
employed the first woman
elevator operator,
The "firstS" that followed
World War / were designed
to serve women blazing new
trails In fields long occupied
only by men. For better or
worse, the world and women
were changing, and the Y,
dedicated to upholding a
Christian ideal of fellow
ship" was determined to do
whatever might help both to
change for better. There were
Washington representatives
at the Y's 1922 national con-
vention, which became famous
as the first women's group to
urge that the United States
enter the League Of Nations.
At a time, too, when such
opinion was unpopular, the Y
urged the United States to
participate In the Permanent
Court Of Justice.
Locally, the Y outgrew sew
eral buildings before a loan
was secured In 1925 and the
present administration build
ing at Seventeenth and K.
streets NV. was finished.

Juniors To
Present Play
Friday Evening

A full evenings entertainment
running the full scale of emo
tional appreciation is planned for
April /, at 800 p. M, the date of
the junior class plays to be pre-
sented at the Sidney high school
auditorium. The junior class voted
an overwhelming majority to pre-
sent three one-act plays as their
annual junior play. Keen interest
was shown by the class since ap-
proximately 75% attendance of
all juniors showed interest by at
tending the first play meeting.
This percentage is considerably
higher than any past class has
shown.
Submerged" "Sparkin," and
"Antic Spring" are three plays
chosen and will be presented in
this order: Submerged" is a dra-
matically emotional play depict
ing six men who are trapped on
the ocean floor in a sunken sub
marine. Their fears and their plan
Tor attempted rescue makes up a
tight tense plot that has no COM
edy and requires none. A quick
shift is made in "Sparkin" to
light, hillbilly comedy. A young
mountain lad comes to call on
his hillbilly gal but according to
Granny, he is "a young teller too
slow to do business" thus Gran
ny speeds up the pace, helping to
make this dialectical play humor-
ously entertaining. The final play
of the evening will be "Antic
Spring" a fast moving play full OF
witty dialogue showing the antics
of six lively t~een-agers and their
picnic escapades. Outstanding
feature Of this play is that it is
highly imaginative and uses nc
scenery.
