It has made a place for the Bonita girls who are interested in sports. Not only these girls but all the girls in the school are invited to join this organization. Twenty-tive points earned by four prac- tices of some sport and twenty-tive cents will admit any girl to this club. The association is using the point sys- tem and trophies are awarded those earn- ing a set number of points. One can earn points by various methods. After school practices, becoming members of All-Bonita teams, acting as squad leader, in a physical education class, hik- ing, and acting as an oiiicer of the G. A. A. are methods of earning points. VVhen a girl has secured 500 points, she receives a B embletn. 1500 points merit a white G. A. A. sweater and em- blem. 'l'o every girl who earns 2000 points is given a gold emblem, a trophy well worth working for. The senior girl who earns the highest number of points throughout her four years at Bonita dons the name, High-point Girl, and her name is engraved on a silver cup which remains with the school. All of these awards are made at an annual G. A. A, Banquet. 'l'his is a social time of fellowship for the association. The Girls' Athletic Association of lio- nita is one of a group of such clubs in the Tri-County League. Several times each year, representatives from each school meet for a Play Day. These Play Days estab- lish a tie of friendship between the girls of the schools in our League. r
