PRESIDENT RALPH Smith spoke many times before the student body, introducing speakers, giving sage advice about school spirit, cmd such. But he is most famous for these words: Dismissed for lunch! What shall we remember most about the school year we have just completed? Will it be the football season, with its pent-up excitement, the new cheers, that new pep song, There They Go, and the touchdown plays that made us yell our heads off? Or will we best remember the school dances, those Grade A dates, and the swing assemblies! We may even recall, with a degree of fondness, a number of classes . . . that time We solved a math problem that seemed to stump everybody What Shall e else, including the teacher, that debate on whether the U. S. should observe strict neutrality or not: the part we had in the class play, or the operetta, or the Masque of the Yellow Moon. Whatever our memories of 1940-1941, we'll never forget the homeroom gang we sat with in assembly nor the million and one occasions on which friendly expressions of trust and comrade- ship from students and teachers made us feel that we were a part of a mighty fine school and a student body than which there was none than Whicher! Best Remember? C337

Phoenix Girls Aren't lackin In leadership Cogwheel oi the Girls' League is the Central Council, consisting of students from every class, who empha- size the spirit ot good-fellowship in their relation toward each other. These girls look forward to that exciting annual trip to the Rosemary Lodge where they spend a week- end with exhilarating entertainment, Campfires, hiking and comfortable rooms. They help to put over the Every Girls' Dinner, the theme of which was open this year and permitted the homerooms to use every resource at their command. ln addition, the girls go to visit other schools and meet the same kind of girls who come here to meet in the Girls' League and share views and exchange points ot interest by which every- one may benefit. The Co-Ed Dance! Was that fun! That's our annual dance the Girls' League puts on to prove to the mas- culine part ot this school that they aren't the only ones who can have fun going stag on parties. The theme of the hop this year was a Barn Dance with the girls coming in calico, gingham, and denim, with cider, bales of hay and regular square dances to add that iinal touch. ' Miss Ethel Rosenberry comes in for a big share oi credit. She spends all her time working, planning and trying to help make all these various activities run as smoothly as clock work. Dean Rosen- berry, always ready and able to lend a helping hand to those who need it, is especially adept in boosting the girls over the bumps in bringing Les Folies to the public. Les Folies is the biggest single event in the lite of the Central Council, which opens the doors to all the talent of the school. DEAN ROSENBERRY married adven- ture when she took over sponsor- ship ot the League! At right is the Central Council - tseatedb Gilley, Eager, Farmer, Dong, Butler, Tower, Brewster, Best, Iameson, Carr, Felch, Parker, tstandingl Shill, Rosenberry, Butler, Hardwick, Amster, Gibbons, Crawley, Vinson, Harris. gf ,If it rf' fl ff' 1353
