Under the leadership of Marcelle Clements, editor, and Miss Galbraith, adviser, the class published eighteen papers this term, among which were several special editions: Language, Lincoln, Valentine, Washington, and April Fool.

LO Es Gk beb One of the largest and most active girls’ clubs in Richmond Union High School is the L. O. L., affiliated with the local and national Girl Reserve organization. The initia- tion of twenty-one new members at the Ceremony of the Lamps, held March 13, brought the membership to seventy-one. On March 19 four delegates from the club attended the Camp Jubilee Conference in San Francisco. The semester trip was an all-day outing to Muir Woods. About thirty-five girls, accompanied by sponsors, went by bus over the San Francisco Bay Bridge, through Golden Gate Park, and over the Golden Gate Bridge to Mill Valley. A banquet, held in honor of the fourteen graduating seniors, climaxed the term’s activities. “The girls have had a most active semester under our fine officers: May Johnson, president; Mildred De Laney, vice-president; Ruth Durbin, secretary; Connie Noonan, social chairman; and Rose Mary Mota, treasurer,” said Miss Parker, sponsor; and Miss Clark and Miss Carlson, co-sponsors, willingly agreed. TRAFFIC COMMITTEE Having successfully concluded its sec- ond year of organization, the Student Traffic Committee is looking forward to the day when perfect law and order will be established in our school. The committee, composed of thirty- five students, was organized to regulate traffic in the halls, thereby preventing accidents which might result from con- eestion. Louie Linville, commissioner of law and order, and Bill Pickering, student judge, were in charge of the activities of the group this term. Mr. Williams, dean of boys, was faculty adviser. OF a.
