At the request of the Wiatr I inani'ei Division of the United States Treasury, the Will Rogers Student Body pledged itself to sell bonds and stamps to the eX- tent of 375,000 'Iihis sum un- derwrote a Mustang Fighter. A plaque will be inserted in the cabin of this airplane stating that the machine was made possible through the efforts of the student body. By April. 905 of this amount had been raised. and the success of the eainpaign assured. Numerous activities, including an auction sale, pep rally and sev- eral talent shows were sponsored to further this objective. ' In Nlareh a request for salvage newsprint developed a week's campaign, which netted approxi- mately eight tons of paper. The funds thus raised enabled the stu- dent body to purchase four new vlassroom pictures. A committee appointed to draw up a new set ol by-laws to be adopted by the school has been at work during, tliv second semester.

It has played at a number of school functions such as P.-T. A. meetings, and is now meeting, and surpassing, many of the high standards set for it by its own performance in prexious years.

They have sponsored many activities toy promote the sale of war bonds and stamps. Talent shows were given by the 9A-101,s, 9A-2l 0's, 9A-20975, and 9A-109's. The 9A-101 home-room sponsored the War Bond Auction. The 9A dance which was given at the Barn required the admission price in war stamps. Also there was the 'Second Childhood Dayw given by ninth graders to boost the sale of war bonds and stamps. This year our ninth-grade boys upheld the school record at the All-City Trackmeet by capturing first hon- ors. The ninth graders have served as deputies, library and office clerks and gym helpers. A group from Home-Room 206 presented a panel discussion at the P.-TA. during Puhlic Schools week. They were promi- nent participants in the Orchestra and Clee Club and in conducting a survey on how the pupils of the school spend their leisure time.

The Red Cross came through with 35393.16 which was contributed to the drive in March. Many articles were made and given to the Naval Hospital and sent to the Red Cross. Hot water bottle holders, holiday cards, bed socks, U.S.O. serapbooks and ash trays were contributed. Twenty Scrapbooks are already finished and 12 more are being made to be sent to the Red Cross for distri- bution to hospitals and recreation centers. Rond sales have been a great success. A total of 376,694.00 was invested in war bonds and stamps from the beginning of the school year up to April 25th. The Auction in which oxer 95000.00 worth of bonds were sold was one of the main attractions of tht- year. Articles brought by c-o-op- erating students were auctioned to raise the money. Approximately 50 packages containing such items as shaving l 0 t i on. toothpaste. 1-ribbage boards, stationery and razor blades were constructed for Christmas.

LEADERS C0llPS TUDENT leaders in the Physical Education classes, are organized to carry on class activities with the mini- mum of teacher guidance. The chief color captains, elected following try-outs, are in charge of roll call, posture line up and the open- ing and closing exercises. Squad leaders, selected by the students in their line, record attendance and skill test results, and are in charge of squad sports activities on the field. Assisting in the building are the service leaders, appointed by the teachers from volunteers. The chief show- er and locker checker is responsible for good order in the dressing room. Helping are the six alley checkers and four towel checkers. Equipment cage monitors from each class are on duty at the beginning and close of each period checking out and in the athletic equipment. Points for athletic emblems are awarded to those leaders and helpers who do their job regularly for an en tire quarter or semester. L4 ll0UND UP NSTINTED service on the part of many individuals and organizations has characterized the making of this year's Roundup. Pictures were contributed by Dick Bent, Dick Buxton, Ronald Dean, Jean France, Helen Mc- Dowell, and ,lean Nicol. Articles were prepared by Marvin Tincher, Don McNeely, Priscilla Harder, Ray Haile, Ardie Boyd, and Dick Bent. Sincere appreciation goes to Mrs. Seely for her skill and patience in doing a large part of the photog- raphy. Assisting her, Pollyanna Seely, Ray Fielding, Ronald Dean, and Lawrence Bryce did a fine job. To Miss Burkee and her corps of typists--Maxine Cohn, Ronald Cytron, Pat Nielsen, Sheila Smith, and Sheila Wilson-goes the credit for typing and revising copy. With her direction, too, the ninth grade managed all sales activities. The Long Beach Engraving Company and the Royal Press should receive special credit for material aid. Mr. Leffingwell and his faculty assistants extend grateful thanks to those people mentioned above and to the many others who contributed to the success of the Roundup. ufogfzap .:. 4 I L 4-rf X , - 'T ufogfzaplzs
