This is mighty different from the little red school house l attended in Windy l-lills, where Professor Snoodlepuss laid down the law with a hickory stick and never gave us fellows a chance to do anything on our own. Mr. David Schlosser, the sponsor, believes that through the Boys' Union a better school spirit can be instilled-and l'm sure he's right. This boys' group is a new experiment at Venice, having been organ- ized during the fall semester with Milton Maguire at the head. Once plans are completed, playdays, assemblies, and picture shows will be forthcoming. lt sounds all right to mel ' ASSEMBLIES will be of the type given March ZO when a picture showing the designing and construction of the D.B.-7 was shown by Robert Cilasgow of Douglas Aircraft Company, with C-len C. Burbank acting as narrator. There will also be a different type of assembly in which any boy may take part in good old-fashioned horse play. Of course all these programs will be just for boys. Next year's president and secretary will be elected from among the boys present at an assembly. The Executive Council is composed of leaders of various boys' organizations, the senior class president, and Student Body president. A great future is predicted for this impor- tant boys' organization by Principal Raymond Pollich and Mr. Schlos- ser. 0 OFFICERS of the Union the first term were Milton Maguire, presi- dent, and Riyoso Yamamoto, secretary. Riyoso is holding the secre- tary's job again with Robert Kaub president. l learned that the fol- lowing boys served on the Council one or both semesters: Dave Ward, Morgan Warner, Earl james, john Rosier, Steve jamison, johnny Machado, jack Corcoran, jack Adams, Fred Beyrouty, jim Akoury, Cecil Dingler, Keith Conley, Phil and Mark Kovinick. 27

BARBARA HOMRIGHAUSEN SHAYNE GOLSEN Secretary l2nd Terml Treasurer 12nd Terml ' BOLDLY I walked into the auditorium. Boy, an assembly! I had just found a seat when suddenly I noticed something strange. Then l realized it was the complete absence of boys. It seems I had got into a girls only assembly, sponsored by the Girls' League. I stayed, feeling awfully guilty but mighty curious, and nobody even noticed me crouched down in my chair in the back of the aud. Paula Forbes, serving her second term as president, called the group to order. On the stage sat the officers and the sponsors, Mrs. Mamie Sallee and Miss Gladys I-lathaway. The purpose of the Girls' League, announced Paula, is to stand for ideals of true womanhoodg to further a spirit of good fellowship and democracy, to establish high ideals of service and good-citizen- ship, and to encourage such activities as will promote the interest of the girls and benefit school and community. Our motto is Friendship and Service. 0 I PRIGKED UP my ears as I heard various committees give reports on the big convention which was held right here at our school Satur- day, May 3, and which was attended by girls from schools all over the Southland. They told how lunches, packed as May baskets, were eaten on the front lawn, picnic style. Boy, that must have been funl 'LTI-lE GIRLS' LEAGUE represents IZZ schools and 67,943 girls, l heard Miss I-lathaway announce. Acting for each individual girl are the homeroom delegates, who form the Legislative Council, and the Executive Council. lust then the bell rang and I sneaked out of the auditorium feeling I had learned a great deal about this important girls' group. No won- der my girl friend is always bragging about being a Girls' League representative I 26
