ANCIENT RECORDS OF COURTLAND UNEARTHED1 Old Relics of Senior Class of 1954 of C.U.H.S. Discovered. V Sacramento--Startling news has just been received from Archeologist Halley, who has been for the past year in the Delta Region of the Sacramento Valley searching for the Ancient city of Courtland. A week ago while ex- ploring, Halley uncovered some ruins which he found to be the old Courtland High School. After unearthing much old tin which resembles the parts of several aged models of Fords, Halley at first believed he had un- ' covered the remains of a garage, but on digging deeper, he came across a small steel box in which were many re- cords of the students of that ancient school. Mr. Halley was especially interested in this box and its V contents as his great great grandfather was once a teacher and principal of the school. , Among these unusual records is the UWILL OF THE CLASS OF l934W, including twenty-eight individual wills. So interesting is this document that Mr. Hal- ley thinks it very worth-while to publish it. Below is a list of the unique and ancient wills made by stu- dents who lived more than one thousand years ago. WWQ, the Class of 1954 of the Courtland High School, will and hereby beqeath, to the Juniors,'our faithful and ever-friendly service to our school, to the Sophomores, our undaunted spirit and attention dur- ing class recitation, and to the Freshmen, our dili- gence in study. To the Faculty, we give our sincere regard and heartfelt gratitude for their cooperation and work in our interest. Individually, we leave: Clara Blaylock--my yell-leading to whoever has the Uperplll ' Howard Chan--my goal-shooting ability to Joe Green. Walter Chew--my long stride to Albert Serpa. ' Opal Crowell--Ucutsu from school to Muriel Bogle. Louis Fallman--my extra year in high school to Tom y Dunnigan. CContinuedl H i V Y V, , M nl, ,Q , ,,, ,.--.-......-----4

We were well re- , presented both in scholastic and athletic affairs. W Two of our members took part in the Senior Play, nLittle Womenn, which was a great success. The girls' were inter-class basketball champions, and they were awarded silver basketballs. We were mighty proud of our boys who helped to bring victories in football 1 and basketball to the Ugreen and gold.W The players , surely deserve a lot of credit for bringing us that honor. The Junior Prom given in May carried out the farm theme which was very appropriate for this part T of the country. This social affair was enjoyed by .everyone who came. n At last our final year arrived, and we were T called Whigh and mightyn Seniors. This year we were more settled and more studious Cas shown by the Honor Roll column.b We showed the best that was in us try- ing to set a good example for the lower classes. Q Our boys continued their good work in athletics and brought another championship to our school in both football and basketball. The football stars were: , Captain Ralston, Hall, and Chew. They were awarded sweaters by the Student Body. The basketball heroes ' were: Captain Hall, Ralston, Chew, and Chan of the Varsity team. Three cheers for our boys! Cn March 22, the Senior Play, HThe Charm Schooln, directed by our teacher, Mrs. John Quinn, was given. It was a big Uhitu and met with great success. At length, the great day arrived and we were W awarded our hard-earned diplomas. There was a little sadness mixed with our happiness at the thought of leaving, nevertheless, we departed with the feeling we had accomplished our work in.a creditable manner . and NFight Hard and Winn will always be our motto.
