Girls’ Leag Let it not be said that the girls can’t handle situations. Just name it, and they will accommodate. It’s the Girls’ League that decorates the lunchroom on Halloween, Christmas or P.-T. A. If there’s no special occasion to decorate they make one. Not one but all girls are members of the league, so it can’t be said that the word choose exists in its vocabulary. They are strong believers in the slogan, “We Were All Created Equal.” The social calendar is really filled with all the candy sales to help Unesco. And the freshman mixer was really an event. All the food was eaten, the music absorbed and every one had a marvelous time. Some needy family had a good Christmas, thanks to the girls, a big basket was filled with supplies donated by the students. A note of “Thanks” for all the fine services of the league. Boys’ League What the girls can’t do the boys play the part of-Sir Gallant and come to the rescue. However, let it not be said that they are all brawn and no brain. There was brain as well as brawn behind that wonderful Dog Patch Dance. However, let it be said that beauty, brains, and brawn were all put to- gether to come up to this unique affair. It was put to- gether so good that the students even danced! This is the year! Yes, the boys have banded to- gether and are now an organized group. This is the first year for the group. If an organization can be judged for future years as to its strength the first year, never fear. A word of congratulations fellows.

The old pot really boils when the Future Homemakers of America commence on one of its projects. Let it not be said that these fair damsels won’t know how to boil water. They even make full course dinners and serve them to their parents at an annual banquet. But they need not fear, with all the tantalizing odors that escape from the cooking room, many can tell that they go deeper into the cooking situation than boiling water. They take time off from true duty to have a little fun. The party days are taken up with a fall party and a Val- entine party—hearts to all. Stay in your own backyard doesn’t apply to the girls. They sponsor a homemaking group in Italy. Few more lessons from the Italian girls and maybe the local chapter will feel adept in putting on an Italian spaghetti meal. Just an idea.

If it’s information you want or a job to be done just call on Miss Weatherred’s Y-Teens. Do believe they are the most activating club in existence in old Hilhi. At Christmas time they put on a vesper program that stuck in the memories of all. They also had a win- ter formal “White Christmas.” All those attending had a marvelous time dancing to such good music. They also went into Portland and did some caroling. Not only do they have social affairs but they do hard work, too. Every teachers’ meeting will find sev- eral of them staying after school and making coffee to serve. Have to keep the teachrs going. This is clean- up year in the G.R. rcom. New blankets and pictures help to cheer up the place, not that it didn’t need it. Can’t cheer the sick if the blinds are drawn.
