A.W.S. San Bernardino Valley Junior College Fall, 1941 Dear Bill, Pat McG.hh President School is getting mofe exciting every day. Don ' t wonder at my observations, Hawkshaw! Anyway, I met Patsy McCobb coming down the hall the other afternoon. (She ' s just as sweet and friendly as ever.) After we exchanged greetings, we began talking about the simply super dance which the Associated Women Students is sponsoring. This group increases good fellowship among the co-eds; and, let me tell you, this is no little task. The seven officers are Rosemary Canaday, Ruth Madden, Ruth Penhale, Martha Lou Keyser, Doris Peters, Lois Reynolds, and Pat. The Women Students ' calendar is filled to the brim with social functions. Every girl in Valley is invited to join, and many do in order to enjoy a fuller life. You will remember my telling you about the fashion show in an early letter. The Vista Del Arroya was the setting for the conference held at Pasadena and attended by a flock of gals. We all danced until we were footsore and starved. Falling, exhausted, into bed, we devoured gobs of candy, cake, cookies, pie, crackers, ice-cream, and hot chocolate while talking about the day ' s activities, clothes, men, and mad moments. My hands are calloused and rough from kniting sweaters for the blue-jackets . Aren ' t you proud of me? I ' m wearing my fingers to the bone and actually loving every moment because 1 know I ' m working for Uncle Sammie — and the Navy! Ginny Ruth Madden ry Canaday

A.M.S. ' 3 1 mm. ' San Bernardino Valley Junior College Fall, 1941 Dear Bob, Jim Lawsun At school today, the men held a Forum Assembly, which consisted of about four of the fellows ' getting up on the platform to lead us all in a discussion of the p ros and cons of situations that confront the male students here at jaysee. The Associated Men Students sponsor assemblies like this one several times during the year. This organization, known on the campus as the A.M.S., is definitely active; all men students are members. We stage the annual pushball contest for the final persecution of the Frosh, and this year we put on the Halloween Dance. Bob Hill was pres ' ident, but he left to join Uncle Sam ' s Navy; so Dick Gardner has been shoved up to head man. Bob Messmger was elected to fill Dick ' s vice-president ' s post, with James Lawson acting as secretary and Bill Dunbar counting our pennies. These officers have made plans for the annual Fathers and Sons ' Banquet and several sports dances; we are to help sponsor the Co-ed Revue, too. We are pretty proud of having ( B donated some of our funds to the Argonaut Blood Bank, g l, Messinger for it ' s not often that we have such a perfect chance for charity work. Well, Bob, that ' s all the news about the guys you know; so I ' ll sign off. Chuck
