mn Y Cc NNN W IN Al! Wi Uli GIRL RESERVES UnpDER THE GUIDANCE of Helen Hinshaw, president, the Girl Reserves spent most of this semester reorganizing their club and building up its membership. “ Because of the feeling of cooperation that existed between the Cabinet and the members, this accomplishment was possible. The girls held meetings twice a month and entertainment was provided by the members. One of the objectives of the club this semester was to develop social accomplishments, and after the meeting, dancing, singing, and informal games were enjoyed. Recognition services were held March 14 and many new members were welcomed. In April Miss McLaurin accompanied the girls of the Cabinet to a Girl Re- serve Round Table Convention at the Y. W. C. A. Cottage in Berkeley. Several other schools sent delegates, and the group discussed Girl Reserve objectives. After the meeting a delightful dinner was served. The Girl Reserves, togethed with members of the G. A. A., went on an over- night hike to “Laffalot,” a cottage at Stinson Beach, during the week-end of May 12-13. Members of the Cabinet for this semester were Helen Hinshaw, president; Peggy Horner, vice president; Jean Williams, secretary: Edna Wickersheim, treasurer; and Marie Markus, program chairman. Miss Clara McLaurin is the counselor. PHYSIOLOGY CLUB To INCREASE KNOWLEDGE through the individual study of health and hygiene, the Physiology club was founded on August 30, 1928. Since that time it has be- come an outstanding school organization. This semester a series of lectures on Infant Care were given by Mrs. Aileen Bronsdon and Miss Helen Parker, the faculty advisers of the club. One of the chief events on the program this term was a trip to the Richmond hospital on May 3. There the girls were shown through the hospital, and were able to see the doctors and nurses at work. At the last meeting, May 31, a party was given to end the achievement of this year. Members of the club include: Leila McLennan, Harriet Pedrotti, Thelma Fracisco, Lois Berry, Carol Hunt, Edith Higgins, Laverne Kingsley, Alice Mc- 4 Greagh, Alice Shaw, Joan Mathews, Eiliene Harvin, Jeanette Hunt,, Anna Bel- legarde, Margaret Casey, Leona Carr, Ruth Moitoza, June Gillan, Virginia Hull, Anna May Connors, Dorothy Ciopponi, Evelyn Alpegene, and Doris’ ; Stephens. HOSPITAL GIRLS THE HOSPITAL GIRLS is one of the oldest organizations in our school; yet it is not really an organization at all. These girls, nineteen in number this semester, are chosen for their citizenship and scholarship by the Dean of Girls. Their duties center around the hospital room, study, and office of the girls’ gym- nasium. This term the girls who served in this capacity were: Ruth Barrett, Phyllis Parr, Mary Fraitas, Anita Gebhardt, Eleanor Brensel, Edna Wickersheim, Marie Markus, Dorothy Bergen, Rose Bartolo, Anita McDonald, Bertha Ped- rotti, Jean Williams, Ina Corrigan, Opal Gillham, Winifred Renfree, Zola Har- desty, Helen Oehne, Charlotte Wood, and Esther Rhodes.
