SENIOR GIRI, RESERVES “As a Girl Reserve I will try to face life squarely, to find and give the best is the pledge taken by members of this organization. Girl Reserves is a branch of the Y. W. C. A. for younger girls, whose purpose is to build a fellowship of women and girls. The Senior G. R., sponsored by Miss Falk, was guided for this year by the follow- ing officers: Velva Oxford, president; Maryellen Webster, vice-president: Ellen White, treasurer; Ada Mae Sorensen, social chairman; Betty Wilson, program chairman; Ellen Berry, service chairman; and Margaret Johnson, student representative. During the year in order to raise money to send three or four girls to the G. R. camp at Camp Lookout, the girls made and sold little yarn men in Brush colors and also gave a successful food sale. Social activ- ities included a picnic for all Freshman girls, a boy-friend party, and a progressive dinner. In addition, the girls tried to serve their com- munity by preparing a basket for the poor at Christmas time and by knitting squares for blankets for the Red Cross. £ 21 ]

They also pledged to learn more of the art of writing news stories, feature articles, and editorials, so that the school might enjoy the benefits.

Throughout the year they sent contributions to the local papers for publication.

JUNIOR GIRL RESERVES The Junior Girl Reserves came into being as a separate organization only this year owing to the fact that G. R. had increased to ninety'Seven members and had thus become too large to function as one group. After the division was made, with only Freshmen and Sophomores comprising the Junior G. R. and with Miss Cameron remaining as sponsor, the new group elected the following officers: Corinne Gray, president; Miriam White, secretary'treasurer; Jean MacNeill, program chairman; and Jeanne Anne Webster, social chairman. The activities of the new group included a boyTriend party, a skating party, and a kid party. In addition the Junior G. R. gave two food sales in order to raise funds to send one of their own members to summer camp. In several other activities such as charitable work, both groups of the G. R. functioned as a unit.
