no LA DALMA 55 DEBATE LTHOUGH Citrus has made notable progress in debate work this year, her victories have not been phenomenal. Our first contest was with Monrovia on the question, Resolved: That Franklin D. Roosevelt Should be Elected the Next President of the United States. Debaters: Margaret Hayden and Hoyt Crabaugh. Citrus won-and so did Franklin D. Roosevelt. The next contest was with Los Angeles on the question, Resolved: That the Direct Election of the President Is Preferable to the Present Electorial Plan. De- baters: Dow Parks and Calvin Bream. This was the first league debate, and Citrus won the decision. Twopractice debates were then held with Los Angeles and South Pasadena on the question, Resolved: That the United States Should Favor the Cancellation of the Inter-Allied War Debts. Grace Wills and Iames Shields lostg Margaret Hayden and Dow Parks won. The second league debate was with Los Angeles on this same fiery question of war debts. Debaters: Margaret Hayden and Dow'Parks. Although she put up a good fight, Citrus was not awarded the decision. The last league debate was with Alhambra on the evening of the earthquake. Debaters: Margaret Hayden and Calvin Bream. Again, Citrus lost. Other practice debates were held during the year. The participants were Mary Vera Richardson, Muriel Young, Beulah Watt, Bob Singleton, and Lambert Whit- comb. Much credit is due to Miss Zellhoefer and Mr. Graffam for splendid coaching this year. SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY HE Scholarship Society is made up of juniors and seniors who have maintained a high standard in scholarship. Activities of the year began with our entertain- ment of the other district chapters at a party given at Mrs. McLeod's home. The club sent three representatives and the adviser to the district convention at Pomona High School. A Scholarship Assembly with Dr. W. H. Cook as speaker was sponsored by the society, and at that time pins were awarded to eligible senior members. On Senior Honor Day the society visited a court trial and the county jail and attended a play. Those seniors receiving pins and seals on their diplomas were Polley Eva Dougherty, Edith Powell, Calvin Bream, Glen Philpot, Lowell Hulbirt, Avard Wat- kins, and Paul Thomson.

Our outstanding social activities were the tea we gave for our mothers, the buffet supper at Miss Dryden's home fwe'll never forget the biscuitslj and our Christmas party. Of course the crowning event of the year was the beach party we had on the week-end of Hshing day. For service, the Big C has cleaned the banners and treated them so that they are moth proof, and it has provided gym suits and padlocks for girls who cannot afford them. We also decorated the room for the senior mothers' tea and the bleach- ers for the football games. The football banquet, given each year, was in charge of the Big C. Also that we have given numerous banquets to members of the faculty. We provided the money necessary for our beach party and other activities by means of rummage sales which were held at Fernanda Contreras's home, and by the sale of sweet peas. So, you see, it has really been a year full of good times and real services, and that is the ambition of all organizations. Officers: Louise Van der Sluis, president, Cathryn Calvert, vice president, Muriel Evans, treasurer, Ianet Schott, mascot, Miss Dryden, adviser. VARSITY LETTER CLUB HE purpose of this club has been to foster good will and clean sportsmanship in all forms of athletics. Only the boys who have earned a varsity letter in one of the five major sports, football, basketball, track, baseball, or tennis are eligible for membership. During the year monthly meetings were held, at which there was usually some prominent speaker. The most interesting of these meetings was a narration of the trip made by the track team of 1912, to Chicago, where they won the national championship. This talk was given by Ashley Hendrick, a member of the team, consisting of the following three boys: Stonewall Iackson, sprinter, Herbert Whit- ted, hurdler and broad jumper, and Ashley Hendrick, weight man. The fellows were accompanied by Coach Boyd Comstock, now coach of L.A.A.C. The club this year attempted something different. A banquet was given to which all athletes earning the C since the beginning of sports at Citrus were invited. It is hoped that this will develop into a tradition. Officers: Edmund Smyth, president, Eugene Timmons, vice president, Roy Drake, secretary-treasurer, Mr. Schott, adviser. fighly-jour
