For several years the G.A.A. has gone to other schools to participate in the only social event with other schools. It would have been Portola's and Greenville's time to come to Quincy this year, but due to the war it was impossible for them to come. The G.A.A. put on their annual dance this year. They decided to have a Sadie Hawkins Day the day of the Party. It was the first one during the entire history of Quincy High. Some of the girls dressed up like Daisy Mae. $■ $.
