THOSE THAT RULE

OUR CHIEF ADVISOR Undoubtedly you have been told frequently that the happiest years of your life are those during the period of youth. It is certainly true that people of my generation recall high school days most vividly and pleasantly. Friend ships made during this period are normally of the enduring kind. The quality of one's friends, together with the ideals and habits acquired before maturity, are of the greatest importance in the life of any person. Probably next in importance during the high school years is enthusiastic participation in both the regular school work and the extra-curricular activi Ees. Personality development and social adaptability flourish by sharing in worthwhile group progress. In years to come, those who are now students will spend many happy hours looking at the pictures in the annual and reading again of the activities in which they took part I sincerely hope each has enjoyed and profited much from this year's opportunities. To the Class of 1938, may you find satisfaction and success in your worthy ambitions and undertakings! Clear thinking, courage and determination are essential. While the present situation is the most complicated the world has ever known, it also offers the widest opportunities for participation and service. May you carve out for yourselves very desirable careers, and experience sufficient joy in your achievements to stimulate your best efforts. We shall follow your progress with considerable interest. Come back to see us whenever you can. Best wishes always! •Sincerely, Principal.

HIGHER COURT OF APPEALS I

Serving as a clearing house for all types of student problems, the council has accomplished much. Everything from our constitution and letter awards to class scraps and doughnut sales has been discussed by this august group·s bi-weekly meetings held with Mr Thompson to determine the plans of our universe.

The council has taken action on many proposition::;; it has tried to create a workable program of club activities whereby everyone has an opportunity to foliow up some interest; the problem of arousing school spirit was discussed several limes and attempts made through various officers to stimulate the sale of athletic tickets, annuals, and tickets, and lo enforce the ruling requiring the< payment of student body dues by those participating in student body activ: ties and competitive athletics. It was in this connection that the amendment creating a new student body officer, an Advertising Manager, was passed. The Student Council is an important organization and it is hoped tha' students will take advantage of the opportunity for a voice in the policies tha'. it offers.

LESSER COURT OF APPEALS The Junior High Council is the governing body of the lower division of the high school. This past year it has tried to make itself more representative of the group by providing a box where students may leave their comments, suggestions, and criticisms, certain that they will be considered. Many of the problems of the Senior Administration confront them beside., some of their own. They too had lo cope with the difficulty of collecting dues and of keeping the grounds clean, as well as undertaking the job of revisin�J their constitution at the beginning of the year. Besides the annual Red Cross Drive, the Jun;or H:gh Council organized and carried out a plan to secure toys for the proposed branch of a Toy Loan Library in Claremont. They made it their special task and the subsequent lac:: of enthusiasm on the part of the school cannot be attributed to them. So the Junior High has plans and hopes and ideas, just as does the Senio: High, and the Junior Council is the place where these converge to come 0'.. l a complete and useable substance. 1

GIRLS IN THE LIMELIGHT The feminine aggregation of the school has been extremely active this year, sponsoring the annual Football Banquet at the close of the gridiron season as their first responsibility. An important contribution to the success of this occasion was afforded by the guest of honor, Dr. Gil Roberts, well-known as an All-American football man, who was the principal speaker. After tho dinner a dance was held in the library. The Girls' League also gave the annual Formal in March which took the form of a St. Patrick's party and was one of the year's outstanding social events.

The fall convention of the Federation of Girls' Leagues was held at Glendale, California. The theme of the meeting was "Aviation." Claremont High School was represented by Frances Griffith, Mary Bertsch, and Ellen Miller. Miss Willows, the Girls' League advisor, accompanied them. A second convention was held in the spring at which Claremont was again represented.

This year, by giving dances, cake sales, and other means, the girls have tried to raise money to pay for a bed for Casa Colina Home for Crippled Children. This is the second for which they have assumed responsibility, and the girls feel that it is one of the most important tasks which they have undertaken. They also made a gift to the school of two more strings of lights for the tree in front of the building, the lighting of which at Christmas time the League has sponsored for a number of years.

There are no dues in the Girls' League, all girls in the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth grades becoming members automatically. The responsibilities connected with the various activities are divided so as to guarantee that no one takes the whole responsibility, and all have the opportunity to take part. Thus, this organization presents a real opportunity for unselfish and valued service.

AND THEIR YEARS We, the class of Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-Eight, are now to leave ou: classrooms to seek a place in a world that expects and should receive the best that we have obtained in our years of preparation. It may be in an institution of higher learning, or a position in which the best interests of many people are to be served, or it may be a very minor one in which "they also serve who only stand and wait." Our years in Claremont High Scho::il have been fruitful both athletically and scholastically. As seventh graders we entered the high school with anticipation and hope, dimmed somewhat, but not diminished, by the awe-inspiring aspect of those of superior years. But we survived the ordeal of being "little kids" and entered the next year able to look down on a new group of younger classmen. Our Junior year was ushered in by a barn dance. The Junior play in the second semester marked another achievement. In June we said bon-voyage to the departing who were soon to receive their passports. Then at last we were Seniors. We had a finger in everything, social. athletic. or scholastic. A party given the first semester proved very popular, and enthusias• tic plans were laid for the rest of the year. Again Claremont's football team carried home a title, and there were many seniors on the te0m. )3asketball, track, and baseball, all saw seniors in action. The girls, not to be outdone, made one of the largest aggregations for Senior teams in several years. We have scholars in our midst too. Three of our number will have the gold seal of the California Scholarship Federation stamped on their diplomas, signifying life membership in the organization. The anticipation and desires of our early years have not vanished but are enlarged and directed into new channel s by a broader outlook on life. We are still looking forward with the same spiri t to the week in June which will mark the climax of our high school years. "Our fo ot is upon the threshold; soon you shall see us no more." We leave with the hope that we may have left an inspiration -:>r contributed an example for· our fellow students, enabling them to forward th'3 aims of our high school as an institutio n in the ranks of those who make it their duty to perfect the qualities that go to make up good Americans.

INTRODUCINGWith the usual contagious happiness +he school year swung into motion, and with it the group to whom the novelty of being called Juniors had not yet worn off. We had a part in everything, scholastic and otherwise. The center of interest the first few months was, o! course, the annual Junior-Senior mixup. 7he Seniors seemed to be getting the best of the bargain for a while with many a Junior trying to erase a mysterious '38 from his noteÂ book, or elsewhere. Then, of course, there was the incident of tl?,e gunny sacks. And certain of the Juniors remember rather ruefully one particular cold, drizzly morning when they waited in vain under the eaves o! the boys' gym for the rumored arrival of the sweaters. But, proceeding to more academic achievements, we mention those who have distinÂ guished themselves in their scholastic adventures. Anyone knowing the Junior Class can appreciate the fact that each has his own talents, and athletics and club activities have been participated in by classmates. As for the Junior party, a big hit of the first semester

THIS YEAR'S JUNIORS -what with plenty to eat, plenty of games, and plenty of good music-we feel that every ::::.e had a good time. Our contributions to the Operetta and tr.e Orchestra Program are worthy of the pride ,nth which we recall them. The spring would not be complete without the Junior plays, so ::::- a time all our efforts were directed towards giving a good program, which it proved to .::ie. On finding the treasury in need of general repair, those responsible embarked on a series of doughnut sales which were a great asset. When the time finally rolled around for � Junior-Senior reception the Juniors were well prepared. Everyone joined in the gaiety. =id old differences were laughed over or forgotten. Even though we are looking forward to stepping into �heir shoes, we'll miss one swell .cunch of Seniors.

Sophomores! The taint of being "fresh" men had all disappeared with Junior High graduation over. At last we were full-fledged Senior High student,, and the vast possibilities of our new position opened up before us. True, we were again the youngest in the group, had to get our locker keys after every one else, and such minor matters, but we didn't mind that.

II I

But we no longer had to depend upon special invitations to attend big affairs, and we gave several successful parties of our own. The girls became members of the Girls' League and took part in the activities of that group. They also began to assert themselves in the G.A.A. The boys climbed into the higher teams in football, basketball, track, baseball, and tennis, and earned membership in the Lettermen's Club. Scholastically we now had the oppor tunity to join the Scholarship Society. The first semester a number of the class attained associate membership and most of these became full-fledged members in the second semester, more than doubling the number in the organization. We feel that even our brief experience in Senior High School has widene.:I our interests, our activities, both socially and academically.

TOPS IN JUNIOR HIGH In the Junior High the ninth grade class holds a position similar to thcit o: the Seniors in the upper division. It is to them that the group looks fc, :eadership, and they carry much of the responsibility in Junior High affairs. The weather prevented our fall party, but not discouraged, we laid plans for a beach day in the spring. It proved to be a grand party and was enjoyed the more for previous lack of class social activities. However, 03 ;.."?dividuals, the freshmen did not lack entertainment and shared practically a!l the important Senior High activities. Besides future scholars, the class also boasts its athletes. The girls entered l::e Girls' Athletic Association and made a good showing though they dis covered there was more to be learned. The boys figured in basketball and :rack especially, and give promise of future recognition even if they don': rate headlines now. The popular Orchestra Program was another of their 5.elds of activity where they shared honors with the older group.

A class with a not-so-long past, and a great future, of which big thing>.: are expected, and which entertains fond hopes of turning out pretty well, may we present the ninth grade, the Class of 1941? First Semester

A SENIOR REMINISCES I'm going to miss this outfit when I leave; There's something kind of gets me when I think about it all.

When you first come up to High School the whole place seems so big, And you just can't seem to understand it all. You learn about blue slips and excuses and detention; They seem to be so terribly important then, and aren't. Rut in Senior High you come to be a real part of the school, And gosh, it's fun! . .\nd one day, kind of unexpected like, You begin to see why things are as they are, And you know !\:lat lots of things are that way Because you wanted them. And one day you go to Dr. Thompson's office to try lo help, And not to gel a talking to for something you have done. And sometimes you're the one that decides just what it is That should be done about snow day or a program or a dance. There's such a lot of things to be remembering: Skidding into classes late with your hand on the door knob, Killing time in the office or at the library desk, Walking out onto the stage at dress rehearsal-everybody jittery, Assembly-never knowing which seat is yours. Remember the day it rained so hard, And you stood for a long time at the door just looking at the rain And the parking shed? And then you put your head down and ran hard, And didn't miss a single puddle. And the football field as you walked back across it at sunset After the game. (There's the spot you were tackled-not a mark); Or the auditorium with a set up-all alone in the dark. Nights of detention-no one else-with the clock jumping ahead every minute. Coming into the hall at live o'clock With the light still streaming in from the south door And fumbling for the right book in your locker. Or best of all, sitting at sunset on the front steps, Watching the long shadows creep across the lawn With the still, quiet-yet somehow living-building Looming friendly behind you. Tb.ese are the things I'll remember.

LE CERCLE FRANCAIS "La seance est ouvert," and another meeting of the French Club is off to a good start. At the home of one of the members a pleasant evening is under way,

The club meets on alternate Tuesday evenings. The first fifteen minutes of the hour are devoted to gossip and late arrivals, then one half hour in which a fine is incurred for every word of English spoken, and in the last fifteen minutes refresh ments are served to celebrate the return to normalcy. Discus sion, in the interval when only French is spoken, is usually quite orderly, for obvious reasons, but sometimes it becomes involved when planning activities. There is an officer whose duty it is to see that fines are charged and paid, and though arguments concerning this are fairly lucrative as well as voluble no one minds them particularly.

The activities of the club are varied. A large group attended the showing of the French film "Mayerling" in Los Angele;:;, and also saw the film and attended the reception for French clubs at Chaffey Junior College in March.

Membership is recruited from the French classes and attend ance is quite regular. Every meeting finds from fifteen to twenty members present.

EL CIRCULO ESPANOL Conscious of a painful inability to communicate even their own simple ideas in their new language, the members of Miss Escudero's Spanish classes felt that they should have some means of improving their conversational abilities, and so the Spanish Club was organized. It meets on alternate Tuesday evenings for an hour in the home of one of the members. In the first half-hour Spanish alone is spoken, and for every word of English that slips out a penny fine is paid. The second half-hour, which is devoted to refreshments and Spanish games, is more popular.

In the fall a Spanish dinner was given by the club, and in the latter part of the year the club members enjoyed an excursion to the beach with the French Club. Again, in company with the French Club, they attended the Padua Hills Theatre and saw "Mexico, Mi Tierra," a colorful pageant of Mexican life. AnÂ other time their ability to understand Spanish was tested when they attended a comedy presented by the Spanish classes of Pomona College. The club seems to be a very worth while activity which has greatly increased the proficiency of the members in speaking Spanish.

THE WOLF HOWLS Appearing every other week, the Wolf Packet reels off the comedies and tragedies of our "sportsmen, sparkers, scholars, and scamps." It also provides an outlet for our embryonic journalists. This past year under the leadership of Mr. Nettler and Miss Escudero new columns have been added. AmuseÂ ocnt, solace, notoriety, prophecy, and interpretation make up the paper's contribution to Senior High existence. As a source of information concerning our comings and goings in the not too remote past, and what may be expected in the future, it is invaluable. The timely editorials have been an amusing and inspiring commentary on the passing show. Somewhat recently a page for the Junior High was added in order to include as many as possible of the interests of thi5 group. Both of these sections have proved an excellent means of reaching students. The staff has had a good time, and some strenuous labor, in putting out the Wolf Packet. It hereby expresses appreciaÂ tion to everyone in the high school who has helped to make it an interesting paper and wishes it continued success.

BEHIND THE SCENES This year has been a difficult and busy one for the member,; of the stage crew, more especially so because of the lack o: experienced hands, since most of the former crew had graduÂ ated and there was only one who had worked on the stage before. The first project of the year, the Radio Program, deÂ manded some difficult but interesting work in construction and management, requiring the installation of an actual control room and hook-up for the broadcast. Then there wm: opportunity for the construction of two stage sets for the major productions, one the interior of a home for the Student Body Play, and the other of a ship's deck for the Operetta. This latter was built in record time under Mr. Booth's directions and with the very finest cooperation on the part of Mr. Lazarre and all concerned. During the second semester the group provided sets for the Orchestra Program and the Senior and funior plays, and that there be no misunderstanding let us say here and now that they did a good job.

Anyone who sees the performances at the high school must agree that the stage crew does a fine piece of work and few realize how much a finished performance owes to them for helping a show to "go off right."

OUR LITERARY HOPES For those who find a certain strange delight Attempts at prose or poetry to write, and who doubtless nurture a youthful hope that the ideas, the creative work and criticism shared at each other's firesides will help to engender, eventually, something beyond "attempts," Scribblers has proven a valuable as well as an interesting source of inspiration. This, the oldest club in our high school, has reached its tenth anniversary this year. Believing that more satisfactory literary work can be done with a small group, there has never been an effort to increase the size of the original club, so there continues to be but fifteen ScribÂ blers. The organization is informal, without dues, constitution, or minutes, and there are no planned programs. A limited number of Juniors and Seniors, and on special invitation occasionally a Sophomore prodigy, are eligible. Admission is secured by submitting specimens of original literary work which are voted on as anonymous contributions by club members.

THE STUDIOUS ONES For the first semester of the current year the Claremont High School chapter of the California Scholarship Federation was rather limited in size. The offices were divided so that every member of the group held one, after a new one had been created. The situation changed, however. In the second semester the membership increased to a total higher than that for several years. At this lime it was announced that the three seniors in the group, Betty St. Clair, Virginia Pierce, and Judith Page, had earned life memberships. They are entitled to this honor due to belonging to the society for four semesÂ ters, and will receive its gold seal on their diplomas. The annual activities of the organization were planned will: great enthusiasm. These included a day's vacation from schooi work to make a trip to points of interest, and a luncheon held in May in honor of the life members and to which the alumni were invited. The last named is one of the most eagerly anticipated events for the older members of the society because of their interest in discovering what those in very much one's own circumstances, and with the same interests, have accom plished with their opportunities. It is both a hope and a challenge.

WEARERS OF THE "C" The enrollment in the ranks of those who guard the confines of the athletic field increased greatly this year, drawing in men from practically every sport.

I II I

In the Fall the activities of the Lettermen's Club were divided between those engaged in the manly art of carrying the pigskin and those who served also by protecting the field against the intrusion of hopeful "chiselers" at the games. Regular meetings of the club were held in which plans for various activities were discussed, or the time devoted to the current sport.

The older members made plans throughout the year for the annual beach party and as a result it proved lo be a howling success, especially for the new members. The annual LetterÂ men's Carnival. which is always looked forward to, was one of the most enjoyable as well as profitable entertainments of the year.

Four lettermen received the traditional three stripe sweaters awarded to them after having earned a letter in a sport for three years. Those receiving the coveted honor were Raymond Stys, Clark Bradley, Hoyt Landreth, and Leroy Hall.

MORE ATHLETES The Girls' Athletic Association is an organization main tained for the purpose of promoting better sportsmanship. Any girl in the school may participate in its activities, which are basketball, speedball, hockey, baseball, volley ball, and tennis. There are seasons as in boys' sports but they come at differ ent times. The climax of each sport is the Tri-County League Play Day in which all of the schools in the league compete.

This year there has been a change. In addition to a definite season for tennis, it is also played at each play day; but there is no Tri-County League Cup tournament as there has been in former years, and all other matches are invitational.

To be eligible for any team it is required that the girls report for after-school sports every Monday and Wednesday with three days allowed for absence. Upon making a team, a girl has earned one hundred points, and as soon as she has a total of five hundred she is given a letter. The final award is for one thousand points. This is a G.A.A. pin.

The membership and popularity of the association is grow ing each year due to the cooperation of the girls and the able leadership of Mrs. Schafer. It provides relaxation from studies and is a never-failing source of good times.

AMATEUR STUFF The would-be stars of Claremont High School began their second year of existence as The Dramatics Club with a memÂˇ bership consisting largely of girls. By the second semester the "fellows" who had joined, being, shall we say, more retiring in nature, had largely withdrawn to participate in the less conspicuous if more lively projects of the Athletic Club, leaving a still smaller minority. Due to this fact, activities of this year were somewhat limÂ ited. However, the club met regularly and indulged in various forms of dramatic activity, such as play reading, pantomime, impersonations, and play producing. Later, some diverting experience with make-up (of the Max Factor variety) engaged the attention of the group for several meetings. There were talks on this art as well as some demonstration, at which time the club met in the make-up and dressing rooms. Members also assisted with the make-up for the operetta and the Orchestra Program. Meetings were frequently devoted to the reading of plays and sketches in costume and character, and some interesting programs were the result.

OTHER CLUBS SWINGSTERS

"Yeah, let's really kick out and swing!" It was in this mood that the members of the Popular Orchestra held their practices on club days. The sessions were swingy enough but as to the musical quality, we really couldn't say for sure. Anyhow everyone had fun. Our personnel included two really swingy trumpets, who with a bass horn made up the brass section, and together with three saxophones for harmony, completed the horn department. Then there were a couple of violins to take the melody, and with a bass. piano, and drums in the rhythm section, we had a nice sized dance band.

Besides valuable experience, the orchestra provided much relaxation for the members and nearly every noon some hopeful swingster was heard sere nading an empty room to the discomfort of all within range.

TECHNICIANS

The Radio Club is not as new an organization as some of the other clubs now in existence in the high school. It was started three years ago and was given a �mall room adjoining the Chemistry room in which to hold its meetings and where work on its projects was carried on. The second year its member ship jumped from four to about twenty, and the range of its activity corre spondingly increased. The principal projects, as one might expect are the construction of various kinds of radio sets, all wave, short wave, and others, some of which have been used in the Physics department. The boys receive instruction in simple radio theory and then test their knowledge by these constructions. They also make themselves useful around the school.

BUILDERS

For boys whose interests are more largely in making things than in talking about them the Wood Shop Club originated and its members have remained with ii. When asked if they wanted to organize, the reply was, "We'd rather just work." So work they do, on anything they want to make. There was, for a time, a problem in regard to the use of the machinery since both junior and senior high boys joined. Some of the members prefer to work on school projects and so they continue these in club meetings, while others with a brilliant idea of some new construction problem, elect to follow their own devices, figuring out all kinds -of things to make. So a variety of interests is served by the Wood Shop Club.

PHOTOGRAPHERS

The candid camera has caught the fancy of the American public and our own high school has not escaped the spell of this hobby. The Photography Club was formed to provide experience in this line. Early in the year one of the leading manufacturers of photographic supplies furnished slides and lectures explaining the method of taking and making good pictures. Then the club visited a local firm and saw these processes being carried out. From December to· March a contest was held designed to develop an cbility to select artistic and appropriate subjects for snapshots. Forty-five pictures were submitted. The success of the club this year encourages us to hope that next yea.r we will be able to equip a darkroom with apparatus for our craft.

MATHEMATICIANS

"Slide-Rule"-not a very exciting name, we admit, but as a subject a slide rule has its possibilities. Two teams were organized, stimulating a rivalry which kept the club active. Each team member was required to bring in to every meeting a problem based on familiar formulas and equations. The problems of one team were presented to the members of the other to be solved, one point being counted for each correct answer. If the problem was declared impos sible, three of the four members of the team presenting it were required to solve it correctly or lose a point. At the end of the semester the points were totaled and the losing team treated the winners. Mr. Booth served as a very valuable referee for the club.

RACQUETEERS

Besides the clubs which entail mental effort, there are also those which require physical activity. One of these is the Girls' Tennis Club, whose members are from the Junior High School, and while it is formally organized, it is quite informally carried on. lt was organized for girls who are sufficiently interested in playing tennis to want to learn the game, and who are willing to practice. The number of members was comparatively small the first meet ing, but increased until there are now twenty girls participating. Mrs. Schafer, the adviser, teaches the group the rudiments of tennis form, and after practicing awhile, the players try to make use of what they have learned in regular tennis games. Toward the end of the year the more advanced members held a tournament.

READERS

As one of the activities which were initiated this year, the seventh and eighth grade students organized a reading club in which they have an oppor tunity to read what they would choose for themselves. Committees were selected to plan a program for each meeting and these were changed fre quently enough so that everyone had the opportunity to make a selection. Short stories, poems, most of which were old favorites, were chosen, and one play was read. The different parts were assigned to members, and they had so much fun reading this that it is rumored they repeated it. In the first meetings Miss French, who is the adviser, read to the group, but soon everyone was participating. It is a worthwhile project, and, what is more, they really enjoy it.

SONGSTERS

The Chorus Club started its second year with many new members. How ever, in the second semester Chorus Club membership was put on a try-out basis. Those wishing to join were tested for accuracy of ear, feeling for harmony, and knowledge of musical terms. As a result the club was limited to more advanced musical students. Under Miss Baker's direction, members were taught the orchestra instruments in addition to work in harmony and composition. The work of some of the more ambitious members was orches trated and played (with more or less harmony) on the newly mastered instru ments. This demonstrated some of the problems faced in composition. Who knows but that this club may not have seen the initial effort of another George Gershwin, Noble Cain, or Deems Taylor?

ATHLETES

In order to provide a club activity for those felloy,s who interests, the Boys' Athletic Club was organized. To be sure, to join another group was encouraged. It was apparently a sixty-five boys enjoyed the activities a great deal and enthusiasm.

had no special any inclination good idea; the showed much

The first semester they chose teams, each taking the name of a famous college team. There were six: the Bears, the Mustangs, the Trojans, the Lions, the Gophers, and the !ndians. Later a round-robin tournament of touch-tackle football and volleyball was held. The second semester it was decided to let each individual choose the sport in which he wanted to participate, and so baseball, tennis, handball, track, and others were enjoyed.

MUSIC HATH CHARMS Having the largest membership in several years, this year the Senior Orchestra has proved itself most successful in all of its activities. Under the capable direction of Mrs. Howe more advanced work was undertaken and more interest was evidenced than previously. With so many members and some unusual talent (or so we like to think), several smaller groups such as the popular orchestra and the string ensemble were organized. The activities of one were especially conspicuous at the noon hour, and at popular dances. The other played at the Radio Show, at the Los Angeles County Fair, and on other programs.

I I

As in previous years, the orchestra has appeared at almost every Student Body performance, making itself a definite asset. But it took the spotlight when the annual Orchestra Show was given. The entertainment this year was based on a Russian theme and all "went Russian" in a big way, with music, dancing, and plot from the Slavic country. Toward the close of the year, ten upper classmen of the organization had the privilege of playing in the California High School Symphony Orchestra. We feel that this offers valuable opportunities and hope that it will be continued. All in all it has been a happy and successful musical year.

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT Judged by either the amount of energy or the volume of sound produced, to be one of the most active and ambitious of the musical groups, the Junior High Orchestra, during the year, included thirty members. The first part of the school year was given over entirely lo the more important, if less interest足 ing, task of preparation for the second half, and the results of the second semester justified the labor and noise of the first. The latter part of the year they Joined the Senior High Orches足 tra in presenting the Orchestra Program, a popular annual event, which this year took the form of a Russian Festival. They played in the National Music Week Orchestra and accom足 panied the ninth grade into Senior High School at commence足 ment lime.

This year Claremont distinguished itself during the football season by producing a really live band. Perhaps one should say that the Junior High did the producing. In any event, the group provided a thrill to seasoned gridiron fans who had only a vague remembrance of a previous one. This band consisted of four members of the Junior High Orchestra, and was most active during the first part of the year, appearing in special costume at all the home games. Some of its members promise much for future popular orchestras.

WARBLERS WE

The Advanced Chorus consists of the combined would-be songsters of the Senior High. It is a popular class, having as members a large percent of the student body. Its activities are many and varied, ranging from popular hits to vesper services and operettas.

At the first of the year the preparation of an important part in the radio program was undertaken. This was the "Carnival Prince," consisting of solos and choruses. Then followed a period of work on a number of Christmas songs, sung by all the chorus classes of the school.

In February the biggest event of the year came, the annual operetta. "Joan of the Nancy Lee" was the one selected. Very favorable comment on it was made by the composer, Mr. L. W. Curtis, who was present at the evening performance of the colorful musical comedy. It was very well received. Every spring a Tri-County League Music Festival is held, and Claremont had the honor of being host to the visiting schools in 1938. The most spectacular part of the program was the singing of selections from the opera, "Carmen," by the combined group under the leadership of Dr. Blakeslee. It has been a great year for the chorus with loads of good times and wonderful experiences.

CUP AWARDS KIWANIS AWARD

The Kiwanis Club of Claremont annually presents to the senior boy in the Claremont High School who most exemplifies certain ideals of citizenship, schol arship, and sportsmanship a cup, known as the Kiwanis Cup. Since the winner 1s chosen by the vote of his teammates on his sportsmanship, and on his scholastic and citizenship record, it is recognized as the highest award a boy may receive in his high school career, and the Senior Assembly, where the winner is announced by a member of the Kiwanis Club, is always a thrilling occasion. In 1937, the eighth year of the award, the cup was given to Emerson Hiler who attended Claremont only during his junior and senior years, having transferred in 1935 from Corona. He entered into school activities almost immediately, serving in several offices in his class the first year. He was a member of the chorus and will be remembered for his interpretation of the blustering Togo in "Miss Cherry Blos som." In his senior year he attained membership in the Scholarship Society. Also as a senior he won letter awards in five varsity sports: football, basketball, track, baseball, and tennis, and competed in the California Track meet.

GIRLS' TROPHY

For a number of years it has been felt that some recognition should be made of sportsmanship among the girls of the school, but no provision was made for it. This year the Rotary Club of Claremont presented to Claremont High School a trophy to be awarded to a senior girl, the award to be made on the basis of scholarship, athletic participation and sportsmanship. To be eligible the candidate must have thirty scholarship points (such as are counted towards membership in the Scholarship Society) earned during her sopho more, junior, and the first semester of her senior year. She must also have earned her G.A.A. pin and have been on one team in each semester of her senior year. Rankings for sportsmanship and service are to be determined by the letter members of the Girls' Athletic Association on a point basis. However, if for reasons known only lo the superintendent and the girls' director of sports, the girl so selected is not eligible, they may select the second highest for the award. The purpose of the award is to stimulate the girls to maintain high standards in studies, in sports, and in the civic life of the school.

Coach Martin, whose fine spirit and able direction was in no small way responsible k:>r another championship team-with his :ien all the way.

As Manager, Allison did a real job throughout the football season in a diffi cult place to fill. Thanks for the help, Bob.

With Clark at the helm the Pack clicked off plays with well-timed precision and played smart ball. A captain who was a credit to his team on and off the field.

We saw a lot of "Johnny" as he roared around end with the goal line in sight. A broken-field runner who took the hard knocks and lucky breaks alike in his stride.

WOLFPACK MAKES A KILL The football season broke this year with a controversy over League mem• bership. The decision to join the Pomona Valley League for the year was accepted and a most exciting season followed. After some discouragement in opening, Claremont recovered and won the championship in the final game. An unusually large squad reported lo Coach Ly!e C. Martin and Captain Clark Bradley for the Varsity this year. The Lightweight and Varsity teams were consolidated because of the small number of Lightweight candidates. In conse quence this composite team was lighter than in past years, averaging approxi mately 140 pounds. Seven regulars were left from the last year's team. Returning lettermen included Babe Clark, Raymond Stys, Captain Bradley, John Jaqua, Stanton Baum, and Herbert Duddridge. Commenting on the season's record, Coach Martin commended the fine team spirit to which he attributed much of the season's success. This spirit was reflected in the student body which supported the team wholeheartedly. At the conclusion of the season the boys were awarded gold footballs. for their part in winning the championship. Johnny Jaqua was voted the team.'s most valuable man, and Joe MacHarg and Arthur Tracy were elected co-captains for next year.

When Don hit a man he stayed hit. There was no fight for an extra yard or two on the !all. A rock on defense, his play smacked of efficiency and a fine sense oi sportsmanship. One guy who really had the will to win. "Lela" fought to the final gun, disregardÂ ing personal injuries, no matter what the score, winning the respect of teammates and rivals alike.

Bucking up against stiff opposition, "Stan" made his past experience count. He was seldom sucked out of position and freÂ quently he broke through lo stop the runner behind the line. Stepping in al tackle with a lot of zip, and filling a hard place in a big way, Bill proved a good blocker and tackler. He broke up many promising canters.

The Pep Band rallies the bleachers to do their part as the team rests at the quarter, a line little organization. "Claremont our High School, we'll always stand by you."

THE PACK J. Jaqua, D. Garner, D. Mead, F. Knott, R. Stys, S. Johns, A. Tracy, F. Talbott, H. Duddridge, R. Bradley, J. Talbott, W. Johnson, B. Johns, C. Clark, G. Darr.

Frank was one of the steadiest and most dependable players on the team. Cool and unruffled under fire, he was in the right spot at all times to stop the attack quickly and effectively. Here's a boy· who liked it best when the going was toughest. The harder the situ ation, the more he fought. Don's determi nation and spirit is widely recognized.

Alter trying several positions, Sayer finally settled down to play one end in a manner pleasing to all. A converted fullback who spent the afternoon in his old stamping grounds. One of those "fight" guys always found near the bottom of the pile. A good all round wingman and a real bulwark in defense. They didn't run "Ump's" end often.

We expected great things of Raymond; he more than justified our hopes. Immovable on defense, he blasted holes in opponent6' forward walls. A tackle who had what it takes. The girl who led the rooting section de serves a real cheer for her enthusiasm and spirit, whatever the score. Martha Rae, we're with you!

WEBB GAME·

Winning the final game of the season with Webb 20-7 in a battle for the league championship, an Armistice Day game proved the highlight of a great season. The Pack started rolling in the second quarter when Chidlaw recovered a Webb fumble on the latter's IS-yard line. The ball was worked up to the 10-yard line from which point Jaqua tallied. Hall converted. Soon after, a pass from MacHarg to Baughman netted the Pack forty yards, placing the ball Qn the Webb 3-yard line. Claremont was penalized seven yards, but on the fourth down Jaqua scored again. Claremont kicked off and Chidlaw recovered another Webb fumble. Mac Harg passed to Captain Bradley on the 15, Jaqua carried to the 7, from which point MacHarg scored. The kick was good. Special mention should be made of the linemen who did yeomen work throughout the game. Raymond Stys was the best man on the field while Chidlaw and Babe Clark were also outstanding.

JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL The Junior High basketball team, after playing the first games as "D"s, completed their six-game schedule as "E"s, winning two and losing four. Emerson was played three times, first as "D's" and later as "E's." Though beaten in each encounter, a forty-two point margin in the first game was narrowed down to a fifteen point difference in the final. Aside from these games the Junior High team did well in winning from Chino by one point, and by their victory over Voorhis. A close decision to Webb was their only defeat. SCORES:

VARSITY TENNIS The tennis team opened the season this year under the direction of a new coach, Mr. Melvin Wilby. The team was built around lour returning lettermen, Arthur Tracy, Earl Vought, Ted Strehle, and Joe MacHarg. A large number of contestants entered for the remaining openings, which were eventually fille.d by Clifford Gettman, Peter Polk, Morton Johnson, and Gerald Baughman, who showed a great deal of interest and enthusiasm for their new places. Several players divided their time between the courts and the diamond thus making practice difficult, but this handicap was overcome. Mr. Wilby proved a tireless instructor, and realized the fruits of his efforts in the improved play of his proteges. There is promise of a highly satisfactory season. The team was handicapped at the start by the absence of Joe MacHarg, first singles player of last year. His return lo action later in the season should be a big help. The first match with Downey resulted in a victory for the latter by a score of 23-2. Earl Vought played first singles followed by Morton Johnson at second singles and Arthur Tracy and Peter Polk at third and fourth respec tively. First doubles were held down by Gerald Baughman and Ted Strehle, while second doubles were composed of Clifford Gettman and Stanley Barnes.

VARSITY TRACK .I I

On April 2 Claremont completed an undefeated dual meet season with a fourth place finish in the Tri-County League Meet at Downey. By winning all her dual meets, Claremont won the championship of the lower division of the league for the third straight season. Against Downey the Welves took nine first places and five seconds to assure an easy win, while in a triangular meet with Webb and Pomona Frosh, Claremont placed second.

Journeying to Chino, Claremont coasted to a win over the Cowboys. The Pack got the first two places in the 880, low hurdles, 100, 220, and the high jump, scoring a complete shut-out in the 440. Lake's victory in the half mile was impressive as was MacHarg's performance in the hurdles.

In a close battle for top honors, which was decided by the relays, Clare mont defeated Puente in the final meet of the season. Landreth won the shot put and pole vault. Jaqua took both sprints; H. Bradley, the quarter; Mead, the lows; and Sprinkle, the high jump. Hubert Sprinkle brought real glory to the school at the Tri-County Meet by leaping to a new league record of 5 feet 115/a inches in the high jump. Landreth tied for first in the pole vault and Lake lost the 880 by only a small margin, placing second. Jaqua was good for a third in the 220 and Mead came through with a fourth in the lows.

"X" TRACK The lightweight track team opened its 1938 season on March 1, in the annual inter-class meet, and the victorious sophomores formed the nucleus of the team for the entire season. Slow in hitting its stride, the team lost the first dual meets to Downey and Chino, but finished strong with a win over Puente. In the Downey meet Harry Hill set a new school record in the 660, running the distance in 1:34.2 to place second. Other place winners were Kenny Dud dridge in the pole vault and broad jump, Talbott and Wilson in the sprints, and Darr in the high jump. At Chino, Hill took the 660, while Talbott won the 100 in the fast time of 10.6. The latter also placed second in the SO. Places in the 1320, 330, lows, high jump, and broad jump increased the total. In the final test before the Tri-County Meet Claremont broke loose to take seven first places as against four for Puente. Walton, Talbott, and Wilson swept the SO. Walton returned to take the 330 as did Talbott the 100. Darr took the high jump and broad jump and Kilgore the mile. Claremont won the relay. Six points were good for a sixth place finish in the Tri-County. Hayden Walton set a new school record by placing second in the 330, while Talbott ran fourth in the 100. The relay team (Talbott, Wilson, Barnes, and Walton) came home third with a new school record. · TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE MEET, APRIL 2 Bonita 11½, Chino 1, Citrus 41, Claremont 6, Colton 27, Corona 3, Downey 24, Puente 7½.

VARSITY BASEBALL The inducement of a return trip to Catalina Island for the game with Avalon High brought out an eager squad of aspirants for the baseball team this year. Thirteen players made the trip May 7 determined to avenge last year's defeat. The Pack had been victorious in the first game of the season with CaliÂ fornia Junior Republic, 4-3. Behind the lour-hit pitching of Dillard Simmons, the Hillers tallied in the second, fourth, and final innings to insure victory. Simmons helped win his own game with a double in the final canter, making the tying run and sending Ted Strehle to third, from which point he scored later on a wild pitch. Leroy Hall, shortstop, and Gerald Baughman, catcher, led the attack with two hits apiece.

The second practice game with Fremont Junior High resulted in a 13-2 win for the visitors.

Meeting one of the Tri-County's best pitchers in Beauchamp, who pitched a no-hit, no-run game against them, the Pack lost their first league game 'Nith Downey, 9-0.

Remaining games to be played are Puente, Citrus, Colton and Coror->.a.

JUNIOR VARSITY BASEBALL For the first time in two years a Junior Varsity Baseball team appeared when a group reported to Coach Lazare this spring. The members from last year's highly successful Junior High team were available, as well as rein forcements from this year's Junior High, since they had no team.

The Junior Varsity played on Thursdays before the varsity games, and on the invader's field. They worked out often with the varsity who furnished all the competition they needed.

With Raymond Guerrero in the box the pitching prospects seem bright for the Junior Varsity. He has speed combined with a batting punch second only to Leandro Guevara, who is at third. The keystone combination of Tucker Dunn and Kenny Duddridge was fast and sure, producing many double plays, in support of their pitcher.

By April 21 the team had settled down considerably and their initial battle with Downey's Vikings resulted in a 6-3 win for Claremont. The Pack went ahead in the second inning, scoring three runs, and were never threat ened. Guevara paced the attack with two hits, while Guerrero went the route pitching steady ball.

As the Annual goes to press, games remaining to be played are with Citrus, Colton, and Corona.

AND GIRLS TOO HOCKEY I,

No sooner was speedball playday over than the girls turned out for hockey, and armed with sticks and shin-guards proceeded to start their annual arguments over the possession of the little cork ball. After nearly two months of practice the Seniors staged a lively comeback and gave their principal rivals, the juniors, a sound trouncing in the first of the interclass playoffs. ln:-succeeding games they overcame the sophomores and freshmen and captured the honor of winning the interclass games. Hockey playday was held at Claremont on April 20 and Bonita, Puente, end Downey came bringing fine teams. Tennis was also played and a grand time was had by winners and those not so fortunate alike.

BASKETBALL This year, for the first time in the history of girls' sports, the Girls' Athletic Association tried to place its activities within the reach of all of the girls by holding them in the ninth period instead of after school. The result was a considerably larger turnout for the team, although there was less iqterest and enthusiasm than previously. However, the experiment was carried on for the basketball and speedball seasons. In the interclass basketball games the junior team topped the list by winning from each of the other three. Basketball playday this year was held at Colton and everyone had a good time although all came home defeated except the senior team.

SPEEDBALL When Mrs. Schafer returned from a Tri-County League coaches' conferÂ ence she brought, besides the usual quota of new rules, the news that SpeedÂ ball and Hockey seasons were to be reversed. So when the basketball was put away, the soccer balls appeared, and for two months energetic lassies, booting drop-kicks, throwing field goals, and planning kickoffs, were very much in evidence. And because no season passes without its casualties, yards of bandage were used. Again, in the interclass games the juniors bested the rest of the teams, after some close games. Playday at Chino, which closed this season, was a colorful one which ended happily for Claremont, chiefly ,'s'ith victories and ties.

LITERARY INTO THE SUN AND SUNSET Do you remember When your mother left you alone By the school-house door? You were afraid. I took your hand And we ran down a long road Into the sun. The butterflies danced with us, The bees hummed and taught us a tune Of blossoms and buttercups and birds. We found a brook Singing and dancing among the stones. We played all day Until the sun sloped to the horizon, When you took my hand And we ran down the long road Into the sunset. -MARY DUNN

TAPESTRY TREE

Through a window made from Squares of qlass, I see A leaf-bare tree printed on Its surface like an ancient tapestry. And in the lower corner A slender branch is sewn, Green-leafed, dew-adornedÂ Diamonds from heaven thrown. On bright and sunny days The tapestry is gayLovely colors woven through In a simple. delicate way. But when the sky is dark, The brilliant colors fade, And the crystal cloth is Of somber colors made. As I sit among my books And grow tired of studious things, The presence of my window A wealth of tranquility brings. -ELLEN COLBATH

TO POSTERITY

Remember us, Not for our faults, for all of us were young, Not for our foolish strife, Not for our weak and narrow stubborn-standing selves Which marked us but a step departed from the brute; Yet think of us, because we gave you men;

Remember us, We knew our fears because we saw the brave, The men who dared to die Because they rose and saw a vision in the truth, And thus saw you, and proved the everlasting fact That never forth from Eden came the strong. -ERWIN COOPER

IGOROT CANAO

A thrill expectant fills the watchers near; A surge of pleasure, tinged with subtle fear, As grave men march, breast naked to the moon, There falls a silence, hushed as tropic noon. Now burst discordant from the maestro's palm Wild symphonies that shatter the night's calm, Man after man the warrior dancers come, Called forth like shadows by the mystic drum.

With spears half-raised they circle round the head, Most precious trophy from the hated dead. Weird cries grow stronger; heavy feet grow light; Shrill sobs of women urge to the fearful rite.

The drums shrill on; the warriors leap and bound, Crouch lower o'er the ghastly relic's mound, Until the chieftain with triumphant shriek Dashes his spear-point through the foeman's cheek. Quietly then they scatter to their homes. Only an infant's wail or old man's moan Betrays the spot, but now a stage of hate To celebrate a feudal tribesman's fate.

-BOB HAWKINS

POEMS IN THE JAPANESE MANNER The ruby-shadowed west Is paling into blue. A topaz star Burns Iridescently, And the new moon Is only hinted By a silver scimitar. The crystal drops Are violet In the reflected Glory Around them, And the wet leaves Kiss them.

A brown pearl snail Peeks through the grass And puts out a silver feeler To etch the sidewalk.

SKY SIGNS A cloud at sunset-in the east it gleams White as untrespassed snow, but not so cold, Piled against turquoise blue, and brushed with gold. It paints a struggling mankind's wistful dream Of joy, of peace, of deeds as yet undone, Of all things best and greatest that men know, Yet only-strange that it should happenÂˇsoÂ Reflects the greater glory of the sun.

The moon and we, through shadows of the night, Glide shoulder to shoulder; in our rippling wake Small whirlpools that the dipping paddles make Catch and cast back again the silver light. Between the moon and single star at hand A cloud floats, writing in the sky a sign Potent with meaning, for one moment mine To read. Alas, I could not understand. -JUDITH PAGE

THE BIGGEST SPACE It was the third or fourth time I'd seen Old Mike and his dog leave town fer apparently no reason at all but that the boysÂˇhad said he couldn't take it. They couldn't understand anyone that wouldn't go down in a mine to work. So I decided there and then to find out his reason. Mike and I had hit it off pretty good from the first so it wasn't very hard to get him to tell me his story. At first he got kind'a choked up inside, and he turned his head away, but not before I could see a tear runnin' down his cheek.

Well, you see it was this way. Like every other miner, Mike had a pardner -a big fellow named Luke, who looked like he could lick a whole army if he had one to fight with. But-when it came right down to it, he had one of the kindest hearts in the world, and the biggest space in it was reserved for Mike.

Well, on this perticular occasion Luke and Mike were workin' a mine some Mexicans. had given up for lost time, but Luke had a hunch (he was always havin' hunches) that the mine still held something even if the MexiÂ cans didn't think so.

They had a pretty good system of workin' the mine. In the morning they dug out as much as they could, then at noon they ate and slept until Luke's dog came to wake them up. Then Luke would wash out the dirt they'd dug that morning and Mike would put up timber props. One afternoon it was getting pretty late and Mike ran across a faulty timber. But it was the last one and he decided it would hold until the next morning when he'd fix a new one.

Luke went down in the mine early one day to work. He wanted the day to go fast because the next one was Sunday and they always took the whole day off to rest together by the stream under the shade of a tree. He started to whistle. That was one of the few pleasures he had, but his cheer was disturbed by a splitting sound. He turned to see a prop sag and he couldn't keep it from pinning him against the wall. Mike said he heard the noise and yelled to Luke. When Luke looked up he saw the roof cracking, and he knew that it would cave in within a few seconds. He shouted to Mike, "Will you get me another shovel from up in the cabin? I split the handle of mine."

Old Mike started down the grade to the cabin, and the dog dashed out of the mine after him. About half way down Mike heard a noise he had never heard before, but he knew what it was. He knew that God had fixed it so that Luke could spend every day down by the stream in the shade.

Mike never did find Luke, but he looked for a long time. Every day he and the dog went down to dig just as faithfully as if they'd struck it rich. Then one day all of a sudden-like Mike remembered that he had never changed the prop; and he remembered the splitting noise. And all at once he knew it wasn't Luke's shovel but the prop. He, not God, had fixed it so Luke could rest every day.

And so, you see, Mike still walks down the road out of town with Luke's dog by his side. -BARBARA MORRISON

INSPIRATION The deep rose of a mountain, Purple care lines at its base; The bronze green of a tree With yellow branches, Overhead the dark purple sky And wisps of pink clouds. Then the early morning fog Closed in. Through that dark, dreary day, I carried that one brief glimpse, And was happy. -DOROTHY JANE PECK

WE You only saw the sunset, I saw the blue above; You only saw the rainbow, I, all the clouds around; You looked upon the daffodil, I felt the soil beneath; You praised the moon and the Milky Way, I lost them in the blue; You won the man with lofty brow, I found the one who loved; You lived to think of better days, I_ faced the future, gay. -VIRGINIA PIERCE

LADY NIGHT She entered noiselessly-unnoticed by many, But to me, the loveliest of all in her favorite silken gown of â€˘ azure blueStar sapphires in her raven hair. She whispered gently in my ear, Not clearly but with an air of expectant Mystery about her. We talked together for a while, just she and I, Of sacred things which only the two of us would ever know. She kissed my brow and then departed I know not where; But she'll come again, My lovely lady Night. -BETTY REYNOLDS

DISCOVERY Wearily the tall archeologist and his Mexican guide topped the long hill, their feet stirring little clouds of dust with every step. They stopped at the summit and, tethering their burros, dropped down upon the dusty ground. After a few silent moments the white man rose and placed his binoculars to his keen eyes. He focused the glasses upon the huge expanse of barren ground on the west side of the hill. Suddenly, with an exclamation of delight, he dropped to one knee. A few staccato words of imperfect Spanish and the two men strode down the hill with renewed vigor, their goal in sight. An hour later they came in sight of a crumbling adobe wall. Despite their weariness the two men broke into a run at the sight of the ruins. Stopping at the walls they sought a low spot and clambered laboriously over. A score of powdery hovels, arranged in a circle around a larger structure, met their eyes. Unbelievingly the archeologist rubbed his eyes. The find of a lifetime-a Mayan city! As if drawn by an invisible cord the two men walked to the temple in the center and, after a second's hesitation, stepped over the threshold. A king's ransom in gold and information unfolded before their eyes. A huge golden statue stood in the center of the room and around ii untold wealth in the form of ornaments, ingots, and vases. The Mexican ran to the treasure and fondled the smooth-textured gold, his avid eyes gleaming with greed and cupidity. The archeologist strode to the statue and examined more closely the exquisite modeling of the ghastly Mayan god. The Mexican's eyes raised from the gold and narrowed as he stared at the scientist's broad back. Then he picked a knife with a golden haft from the pile of ornaments al his feet. A moment later the Mexican rose from his bloody task. The gold was his, alone. It took him two days to load his mules and prepare for the long trek back to civilization. After taking waler from the ancient well just inside the walls, he led his three mules out through the gale of the Golden City of the Mayas. Meanwhile on the desert, gila, the death lizard, squatted lazily on a little hot rock. His lidless eyes stared coldly ahead as he slept and his squat body soaked up the sun as it poured down in golden rivulets. Manuel hiked along behind his gold-laden mules humming a snatch of an old Spanish ballad in time with the beat of the burro's hoofs upon the baked earth. It would be good to see his home again after these long days of loneliness. Just abreast of the little rock he stumbled a little, put his hand out to save a fall. Then with a cry he lifted it and stared unbelievingly at the two tiny red dots on the palm. Gila, annoyed, waddled away to find another rock to continue his interrupted nap. The sun set on the desert, the coming darkness transforming the harsh figures of the cactus and sage into ghostly, grasping figures, strangely resemÂ bling the statue of the Mayan god. The last ray of the sun laid its finger upon a golden dagger nestling deep in the cooling dust. -BILL RICHARDS

Six,-seven,-eight,-nine,-. No, the ninth was a bit uneven and the tower toppled. The child smiled patiently and began to build up the home made blocks again. Lucy wondered, a little abstractedly, whether the "Small One" would ever get all ten blocks to balance, and then her mind flew back to her husband. Allan had taken their little store of carefully hoarded gold dust to the old prospector who lived back up Red Rock Gulch. For this was the day that their dream was to come true, that the little farm in the valley back in the mountains was to become their very own. Lucy smiled as she thought of the valley with its gray, fragrant sage, and the brown hills at the western end dipping just enough to let the wind-blown peaks of the Sierras be seen. It took no great stretch of the imagination to picture their cattle grazing all over the valley, their horses in the stables, and a low-roofed, rambling house, instead of the cabin they would first build in the cluster of cottonwoods near the spring, and, best of all, their "Small One" playing in the yard.

Five years they had dreamed and planned for this. Long years they had been, full of struggle against poverty in this wild land of golden promise, bitter disillusion. She had fought against its influence, against its people, whom she had immediately distrusted. She wished desperately, as she thought of them, that she had insisted this morning that Allan go alone instead of with Old Jim. Allan was very fond of Old Jim and had even told him their secret. She felt a sudden dread at the thought that that man knew that Allan was carrying money. But Allan had said that she was not to worry so she tried to forget her fears. Swinging the child to her shoulder, she stepped outside into the fading light. But the shadows only stimulated her uneasiness and she found herself wondering how she could face more years of struggle if the money should be stolen. She would do it somehow, she told herself, for Allan's sake. To fear for his safety had not occurred to her, for although she believed Old Jim capabl� of robbing a man, she thought him too much of a coward to kill a man for a bit of dust. Slowly she got supper and fed the "Small One." By and by the moon rose and she decided that Allan was staying over at the old prospector's cabin. She was a little put out that he had not come home; he might have known that she would worry. She lay awake a long time.

Allan Kinkaide and Old Jim were never seen again ciiive. When they were reported missing the searching party began exploring, rather apathet ically to be sure, Red Rock Gulch. They found the bodies far back in the canyon but they could only guess what had happened. They say in the town that the old prospector bought one more keg of whisky that year than had been his wont.

When they told Lucy she wept uncontrollably and they left her, embar rassed by her grief. But if one of them had, later, looked in at the little window in passing, he would have seen Lucy, a faint spark of hope in her eyes, watching the patient efforts of the "Small One" to build a tower ten blocks high. -KATHRINE STORY

CALENDAR

71 � FA/� �-

SE]?TEMBER 13-Dear Diary: School has started again. Morty said "hello" to all the school and I think he included me. Gosh, it sure was swell to see all my friends again. I better go to bed now because getting up at seven in the morning is going to be something new. 16-Dear Diary: I guess I've sort of been neglecting you lately. Yesterday I found out there were two new teachers. They've both got pretty nice smiles. 17-All of us got free tickets to the Fair today and did we have fun!! 21-Something has happened to the football sched ule and the boy friend can hardly talk about it. I finally figured out we were out of the Tri County League for this season. 24-Dear Diary: I went to the fair last night with "him." I didn't get any of my studying done but gosh, I had fun. The first Wolf-Packet came out today and our new editor and staff is pretty good. OCTOBER 1-We played El Segundo and lost 22-0. The boys played swell though, and the paper said we had a good team. 9-I didn't go to the Senior Formal but it was such a big success that no one will talk about it. Maybe that's because there was so much room and no one was left to dance by the middle of the evening. 15-Our football team is just wonderful. We beat Emerson 12-0. "He" played and was marvelous. 23-Football seems to be all I'm interested in right now (maybe it's because of "him"). We played Fremont and beat them 20-0. I read in the Wolf Packet today that the boys thought Dutch treating was pretty good. Why did they have to bring that up at the end of the month when I'm broke? 25-We had clubs last week so this week we had an assembly. Dr. Britt came and talked to us about what we should get out of school. No one fell asleep so I guess he accomplished his purpose.

NOVEMBER 6-Mary and Franny were missed this week end because they had to go to Glendale for a Girls' League convention. Miss Willows, the advisor, was the chaperone and they say she was pretty busy. 10-I went to the Senior Party tonight with "him." I had a lot of fun and so did everyone else. Oh boy! You should have seen them do the Big Apple! 12-Well, finally after indulging in rehearsals and burning the midnight oil a little too long, the radio program was put on. It sure is a relief. If I don't write anything in you tomorrow, diary, please forgive me because I'll probably be in bed. 13-1 went to the football banquet tonight with "him" and had a good time. The speakers were all right and Toe MacHarg and Arthur Tracy are Co-Captains for next year. Tohnny was voted the most important player on the team. 22-The Seniors were pretty clever today. They put on gunny sacks with "39" painted on them. Some things were said by the powers-that-be but fun was had by all (who enjoyed the smell of fertilizer sacks?) 25-I may �ot write in you for quite a while be cause Thanksgiving vacation has started and I'm going out of town and I hardly think I will be able to take you with me. DECEMBER 10-The Goose Hung High at the auditorium tonight when the Student Body Play was given. Some of us can now take time to buy our Christmas presents. 17-Dearest Diary: I start out this way because for two weeks and three days we won't have any more school. It sure is a relief! TANUARY 7-We had our first basketball game tonight. It was a lot of fun and the B team won 31-29. It was awfully exciting and "he" played a won derful game.

â€˘ ---

11-I went to the Spanish play at the college and somehow I couldn't understand it. I can't tell whether my escort or my Spanish was to blame. 12-Tryouts for the operetta started today. I tried out but for some reason I couldn't reach the high notes and my voice seemed sort of tight. 13-We had an assembly today. (We didn't mind not having the movies like we were supposed to, it was just the "principal" of the thing). 14-Dear Diary: We played Chino tonight and the B's won again. They're doing all right, poor A's not so lucky. 15-"Exams" have come and gone, you say? Perhaps. But there'll be another day When lamps will burn 'till near the dawn And all next day you'll sleep and yawn. "It just won't slick," I've heard "Pinky" say, "Don't study," says "Suzie," "it doesn't pay." "Yucca" just laughs and refuses to worry, While "Lela" shrugs his shoulders, "Aw, what's the hurry?" Tessie and Miss "Fixit" say, "Never again," While "Bits" wishes bed lime was 'round about tenThe week is over and we're through our tests. Please, teachers! remember-we've done our best! FEBRUARY 9-Dear Diary: Today the Seniors ditched and went up to the snow. It was awfully hard to see them leave, but they'll have to stay an extra day at the end of the year to make up for the time. That's some consolation. You ought to have seen one of them who lives next door; when he came home tonight I just looked out of the window in time to see him ducking into the house, his trousers in one hand, and the end of the blanket in the other. Some fun! 11-We had a movie today. It was called "Human Adventure." I went with "him" and I never realized, before, how interesting an educational picture could be.

14-This date sounds awfully familiar to me. Maybe it's because it's Valentine's Day. I feel sort of sad tonight. We practiced the operetta all after noon and I'm tired out, and, besides, "he" didn't give me a valentine; maybe he didn't know what day it was. 19-The chorus class went to see Carmen. The heroine looked more like a barrel, and the leading man just couldn't stay on tune. It was fun to see it though, and I think we will profit by their mistakes. 25-The Operetta is over!!! Tonight was the big night, and it went off swell. It was quite a bit of work but it was fun. It's going to seem funny not to have an excuse for not doing any assign ments, but I guess that's what I need. Mr. Curtis, the writer of the operetta was there and he auto graphed my program!!! I had fun after it, too.

MARCH Rain came in big black clouds. It sat looking over darn and stream With menacing eye, And then burst forth. by ME 5-It's still raining, and everything is flooded. Over the radio they said that Claremont was in danger of being washed away, but I guess that isn't true. There was supposed to be a Mardi Gras tonight but it's too wet. 15-The track teams went to Downey today for our first track meet, and they won 73-36. They took eight first places. Gee, I wish I had been there. 18-I had the most perfect time tonight. I went to the Girls' League Formal with "him." He brought me a corsage and said I looked pretty nice. Oh, the world seems just perfect. Thf:! orchestra was swell too, and the four boys who wore tuxes looked so handsome. There was a track meet with Chino today and we won. I think some new records were made. 31-The orchestra program was tonight and it was awfully good. I have stayed up later than I should for a school night so I guess I won't do any of my studying. 3-

APRIL I-April Fool's Day and not one joke played on me. I helped to make other people feel miserable but I guess I looked too innocent. Spring vaca tion begins tomorrow!!! 2-I went to the Tri-County track meet today at Downey. We got third place and Sprinkle broke • a high jump record. I got awfully sunburned watching "him," but I guess he didn't have his mind on what he was doing, 'cause he didn't win anything. 8-Gee, vacation is almost over, and I haven't begun to catch up on any of my studying yet. But heck, what's a vacation for anyway? I went to Cal Tech today and had a wonderful time. We had the handsomest guide and he showed us all around. It was fun!!! 18-Well, vacation has been over for a whole week now, but there are still seven more weeks of school. I wonder what would happen to my studies ii the next three weeks went as last as vacation did? Senior play try-outs were this afternoon and tomorrow are the Junior play try outs. MAY

6-The Tri-County Music Festival came off today and it was held at our school. I had oodles of fun being a hostess. I missed last year's one, but I'm sure going to the one next year. Gee, but I had fun!! 13-1 went to the Senior Plays tonight and found out that the Seniors can act quite nicely without the help of the rest of us. Some new actors and actresses seemed to have been discovered and they certainly ended their dramatic history at C.H.S in a big way. 21-The Lettermen had their annual Carnival to night and gee, it was fun!! Somehow these in formal things are much nicer than having to wear stiff collars or high heels. I went with "him" again. Tqat makes two times in a row.

26-The Junior play and fashion show was today and was a big success as always. Mrs. Hull certainly has a knack for picking out persons who just fit the characters. We made a lot of money too. 29-This week-end most of the classes are having beach day. It's a shame that we all can't decide on going to the same beach. My class is going to Laguna and so is "his," so I guess it won't be so bad after all. I promised mother I wouldn't get sunburned. I wonder if she has ever stayed at the beach all day and kept white. JUNE 4-I went to the Junior-Senior Reception tonight and had just a perfect time. I went with "him,'· and the place where the reception was held was just the right distance away. I feel awfully happy now but when I start thinking that this is just about the last thing in the year and I'll be gone all summer I get sort of sad. I better go to bed now. Gee, I didn't know it was so late. 6-Everything's been coming so fast that I guess I've sort of been neglecting you lately. Today was the Senior Assembly. It was awfully sad. Some moisture seemed to gather in my eyes and the·n fell in big drops, but I don't think anyone saw me. 7-Everyone has to grow up some day and today it was the ninth grade. Their Junior High Com mencement was very impressive and I think everyone is beginning to feel a little older. No more school for them this year, but the rest of us still have a few assignments to do and then vacation!!! 8-Tonight is the big night for the Seniors. They graduate and most likely I will never see some;' of them again. I've been staring and staring out of the window now for quite a while and my eyes seem to feel sort of tear-y. I guess I had better put some more powder on because "he" should be here any minute. I guess this just about ends another school year. So, goodbye diary.

Then silence--absolute silence, which was broken only by the slow dripping of some liquid on the floor. A thin, dark stream crept out from under the closed door. Could ii be blood? The dim half-light of the gloomy hallway made it impossible to see. Warily I dabbed my fingers in ii, and felt a slimy, sticky substance. As I gazed upon ii with mounting terror, the door began slowly to open. I stood rooted to the spot, my fascinated gaze fixed upon the ever-widening crack. What horrid secret lay within that menacing darkness? Inch by inch the interior of the room was revealed to me. At last the door swung open and there, there with staring eyes and set features stood Lizzie, Cl broken bottle in her hand. ''I've dropped my shoe polish all over the floor, darn it all!" she said in a disgusted tone. I turned and dejectedly staggered off. Is there no romance left in life?

I MUST GO DOWN TO THE COURTS AGAIN I must go down to the courts again, to the courts out under the sky, And all I ask is a smooth court and a net stretched not too high; And the strings' ping and the hard serve and the foe's quick pouncing, And a bright sun on a warm day and the white balls bouncing. I must go down to the courts again, for the call of the lime-lined clay Is an old call and a bold call, and I will not say it nay; And all I ask is a fair game and a partner fast and jolly, With a backhand and a forehand and a half-way decent volley. I will go down to the courts again, to the noble outdoor sport, To the long drives and the strong drives, and the "footers" falling short; And all I ask is a racquet right and a four-leaf clover, And a cold drink and a shower bath when the last set's over. t--,._,._,.____ ,,_,,_.,_,,_,,_,._,._,._,.""T I I

TO MY ENGIJSH TEACHER

For hours I've tried to do my work; for hours I've tried in vain, But now I'm in an awful plight for I have gone insane. So when you think my answers queer and when my guess I miss Remember, ma'am, before you scream, that ignorance is bliss. For when I sit and dream away and do not watch in class, Then do not think I'm plainly thick, but just a lazy lass. I only beg of you, don't lose what faith you have in me, For some day soon I shall awake and then how smart I'll be! But until then, have patience, ma'am, for patience is an art And realize I am not so dumb but just a bit unsmart.

IN TRAmc The brakes hadn t held, that was alll The blame couldn't be placed on any special person. They had all done their best to prevent it. Jim seriously doubted if Dave would go to court about it but then there was always a c-hance, and if the blame was placed on any one it would be on Jim. Of course Dave and Jim were very good friends, but then, if they hadn't been it wouldn't have happened in the first place.

This is the way it happened. Dave was rolling merrily along Sycamore Avenue toward Jim's house. He was in a hurry because he had promised Jim to be at his house at twelve o'clock and it was nearly that when he left home. He was whistling a gay little tune perfectly oblivious of his surroundings. So when Jim backed out of his driveway right in front of Dave, he didn't have time to do anything but try to turn away from Jim, which he only partly succeeded in doing. The impact couldn't have been heard very far and no one was seriously injured but the damage to the back wheel and axle of Dave's vehicle was almost beyond repair.

Jim was ignorant of the fury surging in Dave's mind, for Dave had kept his self-control very well so far, but the air was charged with unspoken words. Just then a matronly voice was heard from the house calling, "Jimmie, will you and David come to lunch now? Daddy can fix David's wagon when he comes home from the office tonight."

HERE'S A TICKET

The big boss looked sternly at them as he said, "O.K., men, you know your jobs." With that the three figures hurried out of the door, and walked cautiously down the dimly lighted hall until they came to the stairs that led to the side entrance. As they entered the alley their sedan loomed black in the shadow. The larger man started the engine as the other two climbed into the rear seat and the big car roared as they sped up Fifty-second Street. The driver was a big, tall, two-hundred-pounder, red-faced and chewing nervously on a cigar. He seemed to dominate the other two who were of medium stature, their hats pulled low over their eyes. They were in the residential part of the city now as the big fellow said, "We'll get the next one that comes along, but let those old grandaddies go by." "Not very good pickings today, eh Boss?" came a voice from the rear. "No, but when we do get one I'm going to slap it to him. See that guy up ahead that's doin' about fifty? I'm going to get him. You guys all set? I'll pull alongside and shove him over to the curb and you jump on his running board. That'll hold him." They were on his running board in less time than it takes to tell it. The driver was so startled that he could only answer a feeble "yes" and reach for his wallet, when the question was put to him, "Buy a ticket to the Policeman's Ball?" -JOHN TALBOTT t --•--H-�•---H--
