The Hi-Y has en- deavored to create and maintain throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian character. The members have enjoyed the opportunity to promote a general feeling of friendship among the students of the school, a-nd the club has in various ways been of very definite service to the community. During the year members have ushered at a number of plays as well as taken care of collecting tickets and providing stage help. Members who were not on teams collected admissions at the home games, and in various other ways handled details connected with these games. Meetings were held once a week. At the conclusion of each business meeting the members usually worked at some hobby. The club sponsored a get-together for the boys and their dads. Many of the boys attended the Older Boys' Confer- ence at Bakersfield, while VVoodrow attended the Southern California Y.M.C.A. Conference held at Pasadena. Although seven of the members graduate this year, there will be enough fellows back next fall to start another strong organization.

Alice Danner This is the second year for our Honor Society, and it is now one of the most active organizations in the school. It seems that since the depression more clubs and societies are getting out and helping the needy. At Christmas time, in conjunction with the welfare organi- zation of the high school, the Honor Society did all in its power to get gifts and candy to all the poor children. The results were so satisfying that we hope, with the continued aid of the school, to expand it next year, Another high point in our year was the Honor Society banquet for our parents. During the first semester we sold lunches at noodsiand raised enough money to giye the banquet without levying club assessments. E Everything we did, including a student body assembly and an Honor Roll party, was a source of satisfaction to us. We really expect to do even greater things next year. i B. R.-'35 -30-

BLOCK M SOCIETY joe Roberts ,,A,,, ,A7 .....,..,,A V P resident Maxwell Newby AA , ,.,,, ,,V,,., ,..7,7 ,.,.,,.,,,,,..,........,,....,..,.... ,, ,. . . . lffce-President Membership has increased in the Blork M Society this year until most of the boys in the school belong. During the past years the Block M Society was one of the most active -organizations in school. But this year, due to its increase in size and the numerous other school events, the Block M has assumed a less active role and become an honorary organization. Under the new Student Body Constitution the Block M Society will once again become an active organization, as it will be directly represented on the Executive Board. It is hoped that this will give added prestige to the owner of a Block HM, as well as improve the management of our athletic system. Although a large portion of the Society will be lost through graduation this year, there will be others to take their places. This year many boys received letters for the first time, and we know that these will become very valuable in days to come. E. H.-'33 FOOTBALL Our 1932 football season opened with a bang. VVe had a very good turn- out, especially by the freshmen, who showed plenty of school spirit. Vllith the experience they have obtained this year and the weight they are putting on it looks like McFarland Cougars are going to have a winning team next year. VVe weren't as successful this year as we were last, but a team can't always win, and in order to be good sportsmen you have to be good losers as well as winners. VVe did very well considering the material we had. Our first game of the season was played with Maricopa. We were defeated 13 to 0, but we had a good time playing them. VVe lost both games to Shafter, who is the winner of the Sierra League cup this year, but we think that Shafter is going to have a tough job keeping it next year. The season ended on Armistice Day, when we were beaten by Taft with a score of 24 to 0. The football team had their annual steak bake on Studebaker Hill. The food and the feminine element were furnished by the Hostess Club. At the steak bake joe Roberts was elected captain for the 1932 team. The McFarland football team wants to congratulate the seniors who have worked so earnestly to have a successful football team. These M. H. S. supporters are VVilbur Hylton, Earl Higginbotham, Clarence Robinson, Glenn Crockett, and joe Roberts. l R-'33 -32-
