One of the serv- ices it renders is the distribution of toys, food and clothing to needy families. Every girl at Tech is a member of Girls' League so it is the largest girls, organization in the school. Girls in each shop elect one of their group to represent them on the Central Council which is the governing body of the Girls' League. The Central Council meets once a Week under the direction of Mrs. Jinnett Kirk and Mrs. Beatrice Grevenberg to plan the activities of the group. The girls learn the fundamentals of democratic procedure as they Work on committees, report to the membership and conduct campaigns for election of officers. The Girls' League sponsors many activities at Tech. One of the first affairs on the school social calendar is the annual Get- Acquainted Party Where new friendships begin and old ones are rekindled. The girls serve as ushers at the home football games. Members have an opportunity to compete in the Talent Assembly and to participate in the monthly all girls, assembly programs.
