GIRLS’ ASSOCIATION Leslie Yee President Ericia Meyers Vice-President This has been a semester of change for the Girls ' Association. In the past, there has always been a problem concerning the lack of communi- cation and enthusiasm among the elected home- room representatives. In efforts to solve this problem, the G.A. decided to open the council to any interested girls who turned in petitions for membership. The council diminished to thirty- eight members, but has come to function smooth- ly and with a greater amount of enthusiasm. Our goal has been to act as a service organiza- tion: to provide the student body with at least one successful social activity and to combine the proceeds thereof with those from two bake sales and our concession to give a scholarship to a senior girl. Due to the support and co-operation of Mrs. Ulry and the student body, my adminis- tration has worked hard to reach our goal. Karen Hopson Secretary Adele Hunter T reasurer Deborah Stephens Social Secretary

The Sex Education Committee distributed its important report on the need of family life courses in the Berkeley schools. The success of this committee has shown that it is possible for students to have effe ct upon curriculum planning. The C urriculum Committee has examined the broad range of course structure and con- tent, and has made constructive criticism in this area. The Assembly Committee, working with the Faculty Assembly Committee, has worked to make assemblies thought-stimulating as well as entertaining. The Publicity Committee has worked to strengthen school pride and acquaint students with the numbers of activities and events go- ing on at Berkeley High. It has brought to- gether students of different backgrounds to work for the welfare of our school. Assembly

RALLY COMMITTEE Dave Birch Co-Chairman Jon Korchin Co-Chairman The effectiveness of a service organization is measured in terms of the willingness of its members to assist the school. That is why we feel this semester ' s Rally Committee has been one of the best ever here at Berkeley High. The Tournament of Champions was an excit- ing end to an outstanding basketball season; we as Rally Committee members were proud in backing the team and representing our school. The quality of the Rally Committee is a quality which complements the greatness of both Berkeley High and its student body. From the money we raised this semester, we hope to give a scholarship to a deserving member of the senior class. This semester ' s unique Co-Chairmanship has given both of us the privilege and honor of serving the Rally Committee. We thank Mr. Wilson for his devoted guidance, all members for their fine efforts, and the school for allowing us to serve in such a fine organ- ization.
