Block “O” Society The Block “O Society of the O.U.H.S. is composed of a group of fellows, who have won their letters in competition on the athletic field. It's purpose is the promotion of a closer relationship between scholarship and athletics in our school. Before one can join,however, he must earn his block by playing on a championship team, or by winning at least one point in the N.C.H.S.A.L. track and field meet. He must also pass in at least three units of high school work each semester. His name is then submitted for the approval of the faculty after which he is initiated into lull membership. The greatest achievement of the society was the erection of a gigantic, concrete Block ‘‘O' on the slope of I able Mountain. I his great monument, dedicated to the spirit of Sportsmanship, is a symbol of all that the word “Spartsmanship implies. It is the realization of the dreams of Block “O” men, and we hope that it will serve as an inspiration to all students of O. U. H. S. in the future. Officers of Society President Vice-President Sec. Treas. Fred Lucchesi Lionel Wixom Luverne Linton

Student Body The Associated Student Body of the Oroville Union High School, with Gleeson Powers as president during the fall semester of 1929, and Le Roy Nicholson during the spring semester of 1930, has been very successful. For the first time in several years the school saw two very definite political organizations, the girl students arrayed against the boys in a very heated campaign which was finally settled when the boys polled enough votes to put their candidates in office. 1 he Student Body sponsored many activities, among them an operetta made possible by the Music Department assisted by those of Drama and Art. The Spring Administration introduced the idea of having an entertainment program at each meeting of the students which proved very successful, giving added zest and enthusiasm to the meetings. The Student Body owes a great deal of thanks to Miss Scruggs and her public speaking class for their contributions of time and talent to plays given for the purpose of raising funds for the treasury. 1 st.
