Miss Annabel Hall, language teacher, had the pleasure of guiding the activities of the group during the year. The first jaunt took in a conference at Fresno on April 13, while on the twenty-sixth and twenty-seventh of that same month, the longer and apparently more enjoyable trip was made. ‘That convention was held at Hayward Union High School, Hayward. During the fall semester, the enterprising organization began building its fifty-dollar scholarship fund. This award is given to one of the ten ranking Seniors who have achieved scholarship honors during the four years in high school. The seal bearers of the class of “35 were guests of honor at a banquet held on Friday evening, May 31, at the Hotel Aragon, Those honored were: Dick Hardin, Beth Clark, Margaret Fahey, Sylvia Mun- ter, Betty O’Neal, Virginia Rowe, and Nadine Upton. Perhaps it was with the idea of comparing the leadership of a fellow and a girl that the group elected Bill Saunders for the fall term and Betty O'Neal for the spring semester. ‘The comparison must have satisfied the most exacting as the whole year was rated a highly successful one.
