l GIRLS' LEAGUE President - IRI-:NE W1LsoN Vice President - DOROTHEA PEAK Secretary-Treasurer ROSIE UNRUH Chairman ---- REBA EVANS The Girls' League, which is an organization made up of all the girls in the school, has been very active this year. Our monthly meetings are made more interesting by a program presented by different members after the business meeting. The league gave a Christmas party for all the members of the student body, probably the most successful party of the year. They held several pie sales and also a rummage sale, from the latter of which they received about thirty-five dollars. They used some of this money for a cover for the couch in the gym, and with part of the remainder they sent three of their members to the Girls' League convention at Visalia. They also contributed money to the Red Cross fund. The Girls' League, under the advisership of Miss Goode, feels that the group has accomplished much this year and hopes that the League next year will carry on. PAGE TWENTY-EIGHT

The club has endeavored to create and maintain throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian char- acter. The members have enjoyed the opportunity to promote a general feeling of friendship among the students of the school and have in various ways been of service to the students and the student body. The club meetings are held every Tuesday night, at which they dis- cuss or listen to talks on definite topics. The club started its activities by uniting with the Sequoia Hi-Y for a snow trip to Greenhorn. Several of the members also attended the Hi-Y conference at Whittier. They again united with the Sequoia Hi-Y and emerged second in the county Hi-Y basket ball tournament for the second consecutive year. They held a special meeting early in the spring at which they received new members, whom they feted at a banquet. Many of the new and old members journeyed to Hanford for the Older Boys Conference. Over Easter vacation they held a social at the river. The club wishes to express its thanks and appreciation to Mr. Wilson for his efforts to make this a bigger and better year for the Senior Hi-Y.
