CS3-- The California Scholarship Federation is an organization advocating thorough scholarship and school service. It is one of the outstanding groups in the school. Several activities planned prior to the war were regretfully canceled. Chief among these was the District Convention to be held here. However, all members who had totaled the required number of points were given their scholarship pins. , The system of awarding pins has changed, somewhat, from that of previous I ' years. An A in a half solid now counts three points, equal to the number of [ ' points in a solid; and a B counts one point. This year no points were given for extracurricular activities. This has proved to be a successful year with three members receiving the life membership pin which is their reward for six semesters of membership. The officers for the year were: president, Ernest Machado; vice-president, Charlotte Lewis; secretary, Ebba Rae Benbow; program chairman, Sally Logan; advisers. Miss Collins and Miss Rogers. 7 f 27

3[siaqwi This organization, begun in 1919, is made up of all the girls in school. Its main purpose is to promote understanding and friendship among the girls themselves. This year the Girls League began its many activities by welcoming the fresh¬ man girls at Big Little Sister Day. At Christmas they sponsored an afternoon dance, each person bringing a gift to be sent to our soldiers. The two other suc¬ cessful activities were Cotton Cluster Day and the Mothers ' Day Tea. Together with the Girls ' W ' Club they gave the annual football dinner, especially honor¬ ing the boys going into the service. Two of the former athletic coaches, Mr. Taylor and Mr. Voorhees, now in the service, came back for the dinner. These activities were carried out under the leadership of Eleanor Enos as presi¬ dent; Avis Alberg, vice-president; Shirley Gaunt, secretary; Lorraine Alameda, treasurer; Loretta Lewis, program chairman; Mabel Enos, ways and means; Betty Bettencourt, hospitality chairman; yell leader, Rosaline Daviner; and Miss Leachman, dean of girls.
