THE SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY FIRST SEMESTER OFFICERS Marie Hay President Tyler Thompson .... Vice-President Corinne Masterson . . Secretary Eloise Gist Treasurer SECOND SEMESTER . . Madeline Clark Marvin Johnson . . . Marion Hay . . Helen Plymate Advisor — Miss Katherine Stewart embership in the Scholarship Society is indeed a coveted honor, for this or- ganization maintains the highest of standards both in scholarship and in outside activities. When one is a member of the Scholarship Society for two semesters, he is given a pin which he may keep as long as he is in the society. Each year, California Scholarship Federation pins are awarded to those who have belonged to the society for at least six semesters, one of them in the senior year. This is a big honor, and very few receive these pins. Those earning pins this year are Helen Plymate, Pearl Lewis, and Jose Yepez. Many privileges not accorded other students of the school are awarded the members of this group. The society holds one picnic or party each semester, and at the end of the year all those who have belonged for either semester join in one big celebration. The party held during the first semester of this year at the home of Miss Katherine Stewart and the Japanese Doll Show viewed at the Rubidoux Mission Inn are pleasant memories to those privileged to attend.

THE STUDENT BODY President — Helen Plymate Vice-President — Lois Adams Secretary — Allan Haines Treasurer — Jack Cunningham ' I ' HE Student Body, largest of all school organizations, represents every class and A supervises most school activities. To stimulate enthusiasm for the opening of the football season, the entire student body joins in observing Rally Night, each class contributing a stunt. After the pro- gram, the crowd adjourns to rally around a huge bonfire, join in school songs and yells, and devour substantial “eats”. This year’s Rally was doubly exciting because, despite careful guarding, the bonfire was twice prematurely lighted. Thursday of every second week, Student Body assemblies were held. School songs, yells, important announcements, programs, newsreels, educational films, and interesting speakers were enjoyed. Exciting indeed was Freshman Initiation Week, when drastic rules governed frosh conduct. Those who dared to disobey were tried before the official tribunal. Lemonville was successfully combined with the operetta. Among the many speakers who honored Corona High was Mr. Reverdy Harris, whose illustrated talk on Alaska stimulated interest in that too-little-known territory. The University of Redlands Girls’ Glee Club and the Aeolian Quartette of La Verne College delighted the students with programs of music and readings. The efficiency and energy of the Student Body officers certainly have made this year an outstanding one in the school’s history. — Margaret Welch twenty-two

KO-HI-NUR r T ' HE Ko-Hi-Nur, under the capable direction of Miss Waller, has made rapid progress. Editor-in-chief Ruth Turner, in co-operation with Mr. Butcher and the printing classes, has done splendid work and deserves a great deal of credit for working so faithfully and making the publication a success. Thanks to the diligent efforts of our Exchange Editor, Margaret Welch, our exchanges have increased in number from ten to sixty, coming from schools as far away as Alaska and Hawaii. The source of income being larger than in previous years, the staff of the Ko-Hi- Nur has enlarged the paper, which was formerly four pages in length, to six pages. They have also made a change in the joke page, calling it APPLESAUCE instead of CRABAPPLE. The members of the staff are chosen from the journalism class, all of whom were rather inexperienced in the editing of a paper. In November, Miss Waller and Ruth Turner attended a Press Convention in Long Beach, where they spent an enjoyable as well as educational day. The staff of the Ko-Hi-Nur is as follows: Editor — Ruth Turner Boys ' Sport Editor — Ernest Harper News Editors — Lucille Bond Lucille Powers Exchange Editor — Margaret Welch Business Manager — Jose Yepez ]o!(e Editor — Vivian Peeler Advertising Manager — Orville Veach Reporters — Charles Iselin Monte Nutter Mildred Brockman Alma Conlee Faculty Advisor — Alice Waller Printing Instructor — Mr. Butcher — Lucille Powers twenty-four
