Associated Student Body An active program of events has been carried on by the Associated Student Body this year. One of the outstanding achievements was the Carnival held at the school to pay off the mounting A. S. B. debt. Another innovation was the change from a mim- eographed to a printed Foothill Echoes. This pro- duced new interest and enthusiasm in the school schedule. Advising the Student Body this year was Mr. Harold G. Hughes. Through intensive campaigning under his direction in September, 80 per cent of the students joined the A. S. B., as compared with about 57 per cent last year. The A. S. B. play, Stage Door, was produced by Mr. William De Lannoy of the drama department on May 5. The student group also sponsored Tacky Day on April IZ, followed by the annual A. S. B. dance April 28.

Senior Board Groom Grossmont Grounds has been the slogan of the Senior Board. Several amendments have been made in the Constitution this year to make its pur- pose more effective. The revised method of trial procedure can be followed by future Boards and will assist them in administering justice. The Senior Board has followed last year's method of selecting its members. Nine seniors serve each quarter, rotating so that they are on the Board twice during the year. Continually striving to improve the school, the Senior Board has carried on an extensive program to inform the freshmen about good citizenship. This campaign was carried on in all new classes in Sep- temloer. A definite change has been effected in the school's appearance since the G. G. G. Board began its functions in l935.

D l Girls League The purpose ot the Girls' League this year has been to help the girls ot Grossmont learn more about their school and its activities. This theme was especially stressed tor the Freshmen and new stu- dents at the beginning ot the school year. Some ot the year's highlights have been two Freshman Welcomes, a l-lallowe'en Dance on Gcto- ber 28, a very successtul Christmas Giving cam- paign, the Faculty Tea on February I8, the Dad and Daughter Banquet on March 20, and the Mother and Daughter Banquet on May I. ln addition to these activities, the Girls' League has changed the unitorm regulation, and has tried to improve the unitorm checking system. An un- expected resignation trom the Girls' League Execu- tive Committee made a constitutional amendment necessary, providing tor a special election. Boys Federation One ot the outstanding organizations ot the school has been the Boys' Federation, which includes all boys who are members ot the A. S. B. With an increase in membership, an active program has been carried out this year. The annual Freshman Welcome opened the year's activities, and was tollowed by participation in the Carnival. The Hayseed Hop, February 24, was a unique dance ot the season. Grnitted trom the usual schedule were the Thanksgiving baskets tor the poor, because ot Car- nival preparations. To take the place ot this activity the Federation gave tull .support to the Girls' League Christmas Giving. Complete care ot the parking problem at all the Grossmont games and evening tunctions has been an admirable service ot the Boys' Federation. Thirteen
