Their outstanding contribution of the year was the annual May celebration, which this year was in the form of a carnival. Most of the active groups in the school rented booths from the League for five per cent of their profit. The May Queen, Ann Cooney, chosen from the tenth grade girls who had the high- est number of merits, was crowned, as in former years, at this May festival. The sponsors are a group of tenth grade girls whose duty it is to help their sponsettes, the seventh grade girls, to become acquainted with our school. Several parties were held for the girls under the direction of the Hospitality Committee, The Social Service Committee this year sent birthday presents to the children in the County Hospital. lsol

During the winter, thc league presented a gym carnival in which student athletes demonstrated their ability to wrestle, box, and play basketball, The faculty volley ball game was also a big hit. Probably the most interesting event of the evening was an exhibition of Japanese fencing and judo, presented by several boys from Oxnard. Speaking at the various assemblies held were such interesting speakers as Orrin Denny, noted lion hunter, who talked on his exciting adventures in Africa, Highway Patrol Officer Brantley, who told of his daily experiences as an officer of the law, and Sergeant Whitney of the U. S. Marine Corps, who gave a very interesting and entertaining account of his life as a Marine. The Boys' and Girls' Leagues combined to give several assemblies, among which was the annual assembly which one group sponsors and the other follows with a dance. This year the girls had charge of the assembly and the boys gave the dance, which turned out to be a huge success, Perhaps one of the main reasons why the dance was a success was that cider and doughnuts were served to the entire crowd. l32l ,
