January 20, 1933

It is to the 9A's that this issue is presented with the hope that in later years they will turn the pages to chuckle and reminisce.

CLA ONG (Maryland, my Maryland)

You are so dear to ev'ry heart.

Whittier, dear Whittier.

With happy memories we part, Whittier, dear Whittier.

Alas, the time is drawing nigh, When we must ay a sad . good-bye, And leave thee, our dear Junior High , Whittier, dear Whittier.

Three happy years we've spent with you Whittier, dear Whittier, And to the Green and Black been true, Whittier, dear Whittier.

At la t the time has come to go, Although it fills our hearts with woe, For happier times we'll never know , Whittier, dear Whittier.

- Elinor McCullock 222.

THE END OF THE VOYAGE Soon we'll be leaving Whittier, Our pleasant voyage o'er; How we dread putting into port, For what have the days in store?

We have tried to be brave sailors, On the good ship Thirty-three Our task have all been conquered, ow the port at last we see.

Here we part in joy and sadness, For we've been a happy crew; We may sail 'neath other colors, But not again with the Pink and Blue.

Some will leave for Lincoln High School, Three more years of work and fun, Some may choose a different pathway, Wh.en their work at Whittier's done.

Those who sail on ever learning, Fearing not the stormy sea, Are the brave t of all sailors, To them the victory will be.

Teachers, friends, and jolly classmates, A happy time we've all had here, To the good old friends of '33 Hail, farewell, a parting cheer!

- Ruby Campbell 222.

THE WHITTIER JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL This is dedicated to the 9A's of June '33. It is hoped that along with this issue will go the memory of the three happy years spent here. It should bring back recollections of the many amusing incidents which happened and it should recall also the life-time friends and faculty members met at Whittier.

COMMENCEMENT DAY 'Tis our commencement day at Whittier, Old Whittier Junior High, Although we hate to leave you We all must say good-bye.

Our loyal colors green and black, Waving high and low, Will always bring bright mem'rie back Of the time we here did know.

We came to Whittier as freshies.

And could not find our rooms

Now we've reached the end of our task And will be leaving soon.

Some never remembered history Nor civics could we do, Arithmetic was hard for us And music went wrong too.

Even though all these befell us We tried to be true blue, But now we're going to leave you Our dear old Whittier school.

- Margaret Dolezal.

GRADUATION (Tune: Sailing) Good bye, dear school, the hour is near When we must leave these halls so dear, And so across to senior high We 9A's go, dear school, good bye.

But 'ere we part from junior high today A song we'll sing for the green and black so gay, Then, here's to the teachers and here's to the pupils too We will loyal be to all our comrades true.

Chorus: Graduation, going from junior high But many a happy time we've spent In the dear, dear days gone by.

But we're leaving Whittier school, so d~ar, And on we'll go to conquer things More difficult, we hear.

The time has come when we must part We'll give a pledge before we start Our ideals here we'll cherish true Our thoughts will be of you, dear school.

Your standards will our inspiration be To conquer tasks on land or on sea.

Then, as we grow older More trained in wisdom too Part of our sucess we'll give, dear school, to you.
