Dramatics Add Luster to Social Activities HE large numbers who came to every try-out, and the enthusiastic audiences at each pro- duction seemed to show that the dramatic art is exceedingly popular in San Mateo High School. Any tendency in that direction has been aided hy the reorganization of the Play- makers' Club, a group that has been in existence in San Mateo High for over ten years. It im- mediately proved its popularity when forty students joined. There are no requirements for membership except an interest in dramatics. Playmakers' Nightf a semi-annual event, held on October 22, was the main activity of the club. The plays presented were: The Romancers, Two Crooks and a Lady and The Boorf' Cast for these productions: t'T11e Romancersi' Pereinet ......... ................

A. G. S., Resumes Vigiiilantt Role HE Associated Girl Students is the organization consisting of all the girls in the San Mateo High School. The governing group of the organization is the girls' Cabinet. The oilicers of the A. G. S., together with the chairmen ot' six departments, constitute the Cabinet. The Board of Representatives also plays an active part in the A. G. S. This Board is made up of girls elected at the beginning ot' each semester to represent their major groups. This body of girls sponsors all the drives of the school. The presiding oflicer of the Representatives is the vice-president of the A.'G. S. The work of the Associated Girl Students has been so successful, that the boys of the school, last semester, formed the Associated Boy Students. This organization is prospering ad- mirably, and the boys are enthusiastic. Last year the Cabinet started a tradition,which the girls hope to carry out every year, namely, that of working on a project each semester. During the fall term of 1929 the girls pre- sented the school with the San Mateo banner. In the spring ot' 1930 the A. G. S. room was fur- nished as a project. This term the Cabinet has agreed to help furnish the Little Theater by getting screens for the stage. The officers of the A. G. S. this year are: Betty Bennett, President, Eva Riordan, Vice- President, Jane Mulcahy, Secretary, Vivian Hauge, Treasurer. The departments of the A. G.
