5 D I ' ' ' ' ' ' 0 . IQ LA DALMA 55 WELFARE COUNCIL -By EDITH POWELL HE Welfare Council of Citrus Union High School, one of the first to be organized, consisted of the masculine sex only-Mr. Hayden and the four class presidents. Later the Student Body officers were added. As the Girls' League progressed, it was thought profitable to have its officers as members of the Council. In order to have more girl representatives, one girl member-at-large was chosen from each class. Since then, five teachers have been invited to join. The Welfare Council tries to solve any problem which affects the general welfare of the school. Such problems as those concerning school spirit and the upkeep of the grounds are solved by the Council. Smaller organizations may take these problems in their hands when they are capable of doing so. There are no regular meetings sched- uled. All meetings are called when a new problem presents itself. The aim of the Welfare Council, ac- cording to its constitution, is to pro- mote the highest type of relationship between different student organizations and the faculty, to foster a desire for the best school order, to develop a loy- alty to Citrus and to all her activities, and to promote the general welfare of the school. CITRUS STUDENT BODY ' -By EDITH Powau. ITRUS Union High School exist- ed about twenty years before Mr. Hayden became principal. With the coming of Mr. Hayden, things began to happen in the student body. One of the first events after his arrival was the drawing up of a definite constitu- tion. This constitution has been chang- ed and added to as necessity has de- manded. In the old Citrus, all meetings had to be held after school. Not even Student Body meetings could be held during school time. Now Citrus students have assembly meetings, noon meetings, and meetings before school. For instance, the Girls' League and the Associated Boys are allowed one meeting a month during the assembly hour. As Citrus progressed, a great many more activities were added. Athletics, debating, music, and dramatics are ex- amples of these added activities. youflrrn Every student of Citrus has the right to vote on all Student Body questions, even though he pays no dues. Student Body tickets are one form of dues which are used to carry on the work of the school. The aims of the Student Body are very specific-more specific even than those of the Welfare Council. The ob- ject of the Student Body as taken from the constitution is to form the various students into one body which shall do everything possible to make the name of Citrus Union High School stand for honesty and fairness in all things, to create among all students a working interest in all things pertaining to or sanctioned by Citrus Union High School, and to eliminate all things which tend to cause an enmity between the different classes and organizations of the school.

D D g l . l I Q ' O - IQ LA DALMA 55 AUTUMN ACTIVITIES THE Assocmren Boats -By David W. Sturges N order to create a finer bond of fellowship among the boys of Cit- rus, such as would make for a better understanding of each other and of the school's needs in general, the Associ- ated Boys was organized two years ago. This year has witnessed a considerable growth both in the interest taken by the fellows and in the contributions made by the boys to the healthy prog- ress of Citrus. The activities of certain committees show the services the boys hope to ren- der to the school. The Publicity Com- mittee endeavors to keep the student body and the community informed con- cerning the activities of Citrus. The Athletic Committee boosts sports and aids in securing money for the Athletic Injury Fund. This money helps to pay for the boys who have received injuries while indulging in sports, and it is raised by the sale of Student Body tickets. The Boys' Welfare Committee is pledged to aid in the problems of school trafHc and problems of conduct peculiar to boys. School traffic includes trafiic after games, in the halls, and after school in the drive ways. Once a month all the boys meet to- gether at a divided assembly, at which time a special message is brought, either by a member of the faculty or by an outside speaker. Early in the year two prominent Citrus alumni gave inspir- ing talks on Citrus Spirit and what the alumni and community expect of the high school boy. In November, the Reverend Mr. Stewart from Monrovia fConlinued on page 185 I THE GIRLS' LEAGUE -By Ethel B. Sheldon LTHOUGH only one little chapter among sixty, Citrus Girls' League nevertheless feels itself one of the busiest and most active. First of all, the local chapter tries to maintain a unity and harmony among all of the girls by doing several things for the whole league. Since September 12, the league has made approximately one hundred new girls feel very much at home by the Big Sister movement, by three assemblies, and by Hi-Iinx. The week before school began, Wilda Young, our energetic president, en- listed the services of twelve junior girls to be on the job registration day and the two weeks following in order to help' timid new comers find lockers, class rooms, and new friends. The as- semblies introduced our constitution and by-laws to those unfamiliar with themg gave several excellent examples of what the existing girls clubs could dog and organized three new clubs, thereby swelling the number of Girls' League groups to ten. The climax of united girls' activities took the form of the Melting Pot Hi-Iinx on Novem- ber 19, on which occasion not only the different groups but the different na- tionalities enthusiastically cooperated in producing a vaudeville program and a dance. Every nationality from the awkward Swede to the suave Oriental rubbed elbows. For the good of the entire league, also, two delegates and the club adviser attended the two-day convention at Eagle Rock, from which these representatives brought home the fContinucd on page 185
