Like most other clubs which hold meetings after school, the Girls' Athletic Association has fallen down in member- ship due mostly to the fact that many students are Working after school. Those who can still play after school derive en- joyment and much-needed exercise from the seasonal sports. Any girl may join the G. A. A. who has a C average or above in her school Work, earns 100 points, and Who is inter- ested in sports. When a girl earns one thousand points, she receives her letter. By earning three hundred additional points, she receives her year numerals. If a girl plays in tvvo-thirds of all games played, she receives her points. Thus, if she plays in six out of nine games of volley ball, she receives fifty points. In the same Way, kickball is Worth fifty points, basketball, one hundred points, and baseball, one hundred points. She may also earn extra points outside of school, through hiking and skating. Hik- ing is Worth one point per mile, and for 245 hours of skating, a girl will earn fifty points. To retain membership in the club each year, each girl must earn 250 or more points. Officers for the past year, Who were elected at the May, 1944, meeting, Were: President, Helen Louise Rinehart, vice- president, Betty Astry, secretary, Helen Cosgareag and treasurer, June Pasco.

Mem- bers of the committee were seniors, Phyl- lis Gross and Mary Louise Mason. A party, held in May, was the main feature of the social season of the club. Planning the programs for each meet- ing of the year was a program committee.

For the second semester the committee was made up of Frances Vaughan and Phyllis Gross, seniors, and Martha Brian, junior. Improvement of spoken French was the main project of the club members.

It was decided by the club to hold meetings every two weeks, instead of every week during the second semester.
