At the end of the football season they elected a football queen. Shirley Thomas was elected and she was presented with a corsage. This elec- tion may become a tradition at Woodlanri High. The Lettermen initiation was held at the home game with LaCenter. To build up the treasury, ice cream slices were sold 'at basketball games. They also sponsored one of the Booster Dances, which was a big success. Girls' Athletic Association Being the only Lettergirl in Senior High this year, Mae Davis was chosen presi- dent of GAA. The GAA's activities were volleyball, basketball, and softball. The volleyball team this year consisted of eight members: Mae Davis, Patsy Clark, june Wills, Donna Robbins, Geraldine Frazier, Gwen Hummels, Lucille 'l'urpin, and Eva Clemens. Substitutes were Phyllis Nevil and Florestine Simonis. The Girls' Athletic Association sponsored the first Booster Dance of the year.

It was an interesting visit and proved helpful in gaining new and better ideas. The hot dog sales at football games were continued this year and they turned out very well. The traditional St. Patrick's day Tolo Dance was held on March 14, and many couples danced to the Winlock High School Band, in the beautifully decorated audi- torium. The last event of the year's activities was the annual Mother-Daughter Tea, at which the girls honored their mothers. The Girls' League made great progress this year in raising the standards of the girls in the school and in helping to clean up the building.

A. traveled to Portland in the fall to the International Livestock Exposition. In the early part of the year, a Work program was planned. A judging team was sent to Ridgefield for a potato judging contest. The F. F. A. boys used the tractor for custom work and garden plow- ing around Woodland. The chapter planned to send judging teams to all the larger judging meets. The Woodland F. F. A. played in the F. F. A. basketball tournament. They were almost sure of winning second place when they had Vancouver tied, but they lost during the third overtime when they dropped back one point. The F. F. A. sponsored a booster dance on February 21. The annual F. F. A. Banquet was held on April 2 at the school. It was an evening of enjoyment for the F. F. A. boys a.nd their parents. The chapter has planned a fishing trip for early summer soon after school is out.
