J okson A S each girl in the school is a member of the Girls’ League, it is one of t|ie most important organizations in Hoover, its principal function being to promote a greater friendliness among the girls. Each new girl on entering Hoover is taken around by five members of her class and introduced to her classmates; in this way all the girls are made acquainted with one another. Two functions that further promote a friendly feeling are the Stunt Party, a costume affair held in October, and the afternoon party honoring the new girls, which is held in February. Both gatherings were acclaimed huge successes. The Girls’ League did a great deal of philanthropic work this year, such as collecting over a ton of canned goods at Thanksgiving and nine hundred and fifty pounds of candy at Christmas. Last fall Leila Barrie, Marian Welz, and Miss Frances E. Jackson attend- ed the semi-annual Girls’ League convention at Los Angeles High School. 16 T h , S c.rol 1. 11) 3 5

CONN MEYER MOODY PAGLIUSO L. SMITH THOMPSON SEYMOUR A SMITH GORMI.EY HODGE O’NEIL STANFILL WEGER CAMPUS AND CORRIDORS TJOR the fourth consecutive year the Senior Class took over the job of A supervising the halls and grounds, a most important task as efficient study can be accomplished only if disturbances in the corridors are prevented. Unnecessary noise, though inexcusable, at times prevailed, and those on duty undertook a great responsibility in the attempt to preserve order. Student cooperation, which was a little less than it should have been at the end of the year, made the work comparatively hard. Billikens and members of the Lcttcrmcn’s Clubs as usual assisted the regular halls and grounds crew. These organizations were responsible for conditions at the lunch stand during Hoover’s lunch period and helped to keep the campus in order. Mr. Martin Hanson, shop instructor, was the faculty member in charge during both semesters. As has been the custom, the Cabinet chose a general chairman from a group of nominees submitted by the Service Clubs. During the first semester A1 Moody held the position while Bill Conn served in the same capacity during the second. So that a better check could be had on students, all those leaving class during the period were required to sign slips giving their name, room, destination, and teacher’s name. This practice was successfully used during the fourth quarter only. As Hoover had but one lunch period during the last semester, all buildings were open to students at that time with the exception of liberal arts used by Toll. T h ■ 8 c. roll, 1 ) 3 5 15

One outstanding program was featured hv the appearance of Major G. H. Schoof, a world traveler and Canadian Mounted policeman, who had many trophies and souvenirs to show of his thrilling experiences. The annual Stag Party sponsored by the Boys’ League was a great success. Champion parallel-bar men, hand balancers, a troupe of tumblers, and three Olympic weight lifters secured from the Los Angeles Athletic Club were seen on a varied program, which was preceded by a basketball game. In addition a rifle artist, Captain R. L. Harding, displayed some marvelous shooting. Refreshments were served later in the cafeteria. The final track tryouts were staged by the hoys for the exchange assembly with the Girls’ League, as was the case the year before. In return the girls gave a dance after school for the fellows on May 2, for which the Boys’ League extended thanks. Lyman Paine and Jack StanfiM did highly commendable work as wel- fare chairmen, while Gaylord Mercer and Perry Conner piloted the organ- ization through a highly successful year. 7 h S emit.
