At last your wish has been fulfilled! Cast your eyes upon the memoirs of the Boys' Federation! This said organization is upheld by a very distinguished group-the Senior High boys. The members so far, have been very fortunate in regard to the type of entertain- ment presented. During the past year the Federation has enjoyed two style shows, given through the courtesy of Harry Coffee to show what the well dressed man will wear. This accounts for the immaculate appearance of our members Cdirty cords and no ties, for instancelj In the early part of March an event took place which will long be remembered- The Boys' Federation Dance, given in honor of our girl friends of the Girls' League. The auditorium was decorated in true spring fashion so as to satisfy that strange feeling that overcomes one during that season of the year. The committees in charge modestly admitted that it was one of the most outstanding social events of the year. Not long afterwards the Federation was invited by the Girls' League to partici- pate in a joint meeting. The speaker of the day being Miss lVlary Yost, dean of women of Stanford University, of course our presence added greatly to the prestige of the meeting as it always has and always will, forever and forever. I thank you! OAKLEY HUNTER. P. S.: I wish to state that this confession was forced from me through the famous third degree of the Nautilus Staff. 'l'w0nty-Seven

Membership in the Scholarship Society is an honor depending upon a high type of school work during the previous semester. A's give three points and B's one, toward the ten points necessary for membership. Two of these may be gained from extra-curricular activities such as athletics, dramatics, and debating. Those pupils who have earned membership for four semesters, one of which must be in the Senior year, become life members of the California Scholarship Federation. Those attaining life membership are given pins by the Student Body. They are also presented with a certificate, on graduation. The Chapter seal is placed on their diplomas and they are given college recommendations. A scholarship for college may also be earned. The activities of our organization have been varied but much of the time has been spent on conferences. The Twentieth District meeting was held here in November with a Reedley student acting as president, and Viola Toler as secretary. The business meeting and discussions of the morning were followed by a luncheon and program. ln the afternoon a dance was featured. ln lldarch the District lVleeting was held at Kerman with Jim Shipe as president. The delegates were impressed by the activities and privileges of the other chapters. The next important event, possibly the most important to all who attended, was the conference of the Central Section held in Santa Cruz on April ninth. Our delegates were entertained at the summer home of Geraldine Rodgers and reported an enjoyable, as well as a profitable, trip. '37 I just lacked one point. Twenty-l'Iig'hl,
