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.
