H. XV. ADAMS H. S. PARKER ,superintendenfs efbftessage The Spartans were warriors. They were taught from earliest childhood to fight and to love fighting. All of thein powers were trained to this end of military preparedness. To conquer in war was their ideal of service. No sacrifice, not even loss of life itself, was too great to endure in order to attain victory for Sparta. The present-day Spartan must also be willing to fight and sacrifice for the general good of mankind. A different kind of fight, in- deed, but requiring better training, more intelligence and just as great pri- vation and sacrifice. This fight is the fight against disease, against war, against political chicanery, against economic and social injustice and a fight to pro- tect the rights of a free people. He must also learn to like this sort of fight- ing even though it isolates him from those he would call friends. This is the challenge to all who adopt the name Spartan.', -H. W. Adams. 'Principal'5 Gybftessagef We, the Spartans of Corvallis High School, may well keep in mind the ideals of old Sparta. The main purpose in training the youth of ancient Greece was the development of self-control and obedience, the hardening and streng- thening of the body and the cultivation of the ability to live in moderation and sobriety. Athletic events were considered important in the education of young men because of their value in physical development and in discipline. Every Spartan was trained to be a good soldier. Today men are trained to be good citizens, but is the end so very different? May we not say that health, physical and mental development, self-control and self-discipline and moderation in all the ways of life are the foundations which constitute the real citizen of today? At their best, the ideals of old Sparta and the ideals of modern America have many things in common. -H. S. Parker. I fr 1

llerman Fenner Kemp Mitchell Ruzek 'I' urge XV' ' 'ington XVI 't ll w H ISSI' Parker Student Govmcil In ancient Sparta one ruler was supreme, but through the ages countries have found it far better to place the responsibilities of government upon a group of eminent citizens rather than upon one individual. Corvallis High School, following their lead, chose the Student Council to act as the ruling body. The sale of business men's booster tickets was one of many new plans that proved very successful during the year. These tickets entitled the holder to attend all high school athletic events. They sold at 31.50 each, bringing in approximately four hundred dollars. At the beginning of the year the Council appointed a noon-hour-program committee which planned suitable entertainment each noon for those who brought their lunches and for those who returned to school early. Ping pong, boxing, volley ball, basketball, wrestling and dancing were included in the programs. Heretofore the teachers on noon duty had been in charge of en- tertainment, but the new plan relieved them of this responsibility. The revision ofthe constitution was another important work of the Coun- cil. Several changes were necessary to bring the document up to date, as it had not been revised for several years. The book exchange, which operated for the second year, handled 423 books. The student body fund was aided by a percentage received from these sales. The Student Council was composed of the student body president, the vice-president, the secretary and the treasurer, senior, junior and sophomore class presidentsg and the president of the Girls' League. Mr. Harry S. Parker, principal, was adviser of the group. -Lucile Maris. Illl
