Girls’ League Members Follow the Traditional Activity Pattern The many Girls’ League mem- bers followed the usual pattern this year. Most of them sold pro- grams and cokes at all the home football games and brought in a lot of change for their president Carla Walden to count. The All Girls’ Party was held for Hallo- ween. There were many unusual costumes and many good things to eat. “Natural High” was the theme for the formal dance held in late November. The gym was decorated in dark and light blue. In the spring, a bus loaded with luggage and packed with giggling girls who had the most service points, went on the annual trip to Phoenix to attend a special dinner and a current stage production. SUPERVISING THE GIRLS' LEAGUE coke sales are Carla Walden and Mrs. Gale. 27

At the beginning of the school year, organizing was the first thing scheduled by the Debating Society. Officers were elected and plans were made for regular programs at the Tuesday meetings. Debates, impromptu speeches, and pantomimes were among the group activities. The topics that were chosen covered many recent and interesting subjects. The debates gave members an oppor- tunity to gain poise in public speaking and to become more informed on current happenings. As the holiday season neared, a party was held by the members.
