GIRLS LEAGUE ' This year under the presidency of Betty Emigh the Girls League has been enthusiastic and active. The projects undertaken have been very successful and have done much to stimulate school spirit among the girls. On November 24, 1934, a Mothers, Tea was given by the League in the Women's Improvement Clubhouse. A number of mothers attended and were given an opportunity to meet the teachers and girls. The annual Girls' Hi Jinx, held in the Women's Improvement Club on February 22, 1935, attracted a large crowd. Each class contributed to the program which was a pro- nounced success. Dancing and refreshments followed. All were of the opinion that it was the best Hi Jinx given in recent years. It has been very gratifying to the officials of the League to have had such Hne co-opera- tion from the girls, the teachers, and the mothers. PAGE 22

SOCIETY ' The First social function of the year was the Freshman Reception given in the high school gym on November Z, 1934, by the sophomores. The gym was decorated in the l'lallowe'en motif with jack-o-lanterns, witches, and weird lights. The dance was well attended, and it was pronounced a success. The ball given by the seniors on December 7, 1934, in the high school gym was the highlight of the schoolls social activities. The gym was beauti- fully decorated with candles and Christmas greens. Many of the towns- people, as well as the students, were present and gave a Ugrown up air to the affair. On lX'l'arch 15, 1935, the freshmen gave their return. They decorated the gym like an old fashioned garden with a picket fence, an arbor and bright spring flowers. The whole school looked forward to the junior Prom which was held on May 3, 1935. The juniors decorated the gym as a feudal castle with bold knights in armor, prancing stecds and fair ladies. VVith such an unusual setting, it was a most enjoyable affair and everyone enjoyed himself. PAGE 24
