LOCKSMITH Quote for this Issue:
The secret of winning football games is working more as a team, less as individuals. I play not my eleven best but my best eleven. - Knute Rockne Newsletter Date October 20, 2000
The Weekly Newsletter of Stuyvesant H.S. Key Club ! Hope all the seniors survived the past weekend’s SAT I/II. Freshpersons, sophomores and juniors who will be taking the PSAT tomorrow, do your best! The money collected from the ten members who handed their boxes in last week amounted to $212.06. That’s roughly twenty dollars per box—not bad for a little box. Word of wisdom: Tape the boxes so money doesn’t fall out! Remember that you can also trade in your old Unicef box for a new one. It can help if you tell people that the money that goes into the little boxes is for the Iodine Deficiency Foundation. Despite the fact that iodine deficiency disorder is scarce in America, there are many people who lack iodine and suffer from goiter in third world countries. A little goes a long way. The results were great and we hope they continue to be so. The boxes, empty or full, will be collected in the first week of November. When that’s done, we’ll tally up the coins and see which Key Clubber has the most! For all the money raised, the top members will get … their name published in the Locksmith! (woo…) ——————————————————————————————————————

There will be an installation ceremony tonight for the Chinatown Kiwanis, our sponsoring Kiwanis. Guess what? We’ll be doing a little ditty of the New York District Key Club Song. It goes a little something like this: I'm a New Yorker born and a New Yorker bred And when I die I'll be a New Yorker dead Rah Rah! New York, New Yorker Rah Rah! New York, New Yorker Rah Rah New York District Go Wild WHOOOOOOO!!!
Be Proud as a Key Club Member:
The satisfaction of realizing the capability to “give back” to the community.
A great gathering to meet new friends and to work with one another (~ especially underclassmen ~).
The fulfillment of the unwritten service requirement for admission to college is also a great asset. (Helping counts!)
~Humiliations and details next week~
* Dues are Still Due *
Please pay your club dues as your pass by Arthur, our treasurer, after the meeting. If you do not pay your dues, you are technically not in the club. It is not that we are mercenary—since of course we are a nonprofit service club; the dues are required for the administration and will not be anyone’s profit. You can hand them in today or after any other future meeting.
