Tur Scholarship Club is one in which only the students with a high rating can enter. Our Scholarship is known as Chapter 42 of the California Scholarship Federation. In order to attain membership in the Scholarship Society a student must have a semester average of three “A’s” and one “B”, physical education excluded. An “A” is three points and a “B” is one point, making a total of 10 points. If a member remains on the Scholarship for six semesters or more he becomes a life member and seal bearer and is awarded a life time pin. One day a year is allotted to the Scholarship group, and the members may visit some interesting place. The Chapter plan is to go to a well known college every spring. This year the society expects to go to U. C. L. A. Earlier in the year the Scholarship Society visited the San Bernardino Newspaper establishment and was shown the mcst important sections of the newspaper. The organization is sponsored by Miss Mabel Thayer and Mr. Bondoc.

Tf urING the first semester, there was a full program for the purpose of acquainting the new girls with our school. At the end of the first week, the freshman girls were given a welcoming party at which they danced, enjoyed refreshments, and entertaining games. On October 9 the girls were entertained by a few musical numbers by members of the Girls’ League. At Christmas, several baskets were made and given to worthy families in the community. A one-act play was presented at the meeting on January 15, which was enjoyed by all. The first program in the second semester was on March 19; this affair centered around the hobbies of the teachers and girls. The Spinsters’ Dance on April 4 was a great success. The annual fashion show was on April 30. On May 7 the mothers were entertained by their daughters at the Mother’s Day Tea. The last program of the year was the inauguration of the new officers in the beautiful Cand’e Lighting Ceremony. Left to right—Mrs. Varney, M. Johnson, W. Millar, D. Buttles, A. Hill, and Miss Bird.

THe Block “B” is made up of the boys who have made a varsity letter in football, basketball, track, or baseball. The Block “B” was fairly active this year, meeting every Tuesday to discuss any matter that was on hand. They also sponsored a few dances that were successful. The Block “B” is a club that is limited to a few. These few have shown their prowess in athletics and were awarded a letter for their efforts. They then were voted into the club by the previous members. A formal dance is planned for this spring and it should prove to be a real success. An orchestra will be hired and the dance will probably be held in the Woman’s Club. The Block “B” has never attempted anything of this kind, so a chapter will be added to the annals of the Block “B.” The club is sponsored by Coach Roland V. Spraker, who came from Occidental College this year.
