' We as seniors are often inclined to believe that we shall have completed our edu- cation when we are graduated. However, when we undertake the responsibilities of life after graduation we realize the truth of the words of Roosevelt. We learn that our school Work has merely shown us the way to acquire an education by our own efforts. So, as we separate and each takes his own particular path in life, we come to the realization that we are just entering a great universitydthe University of Experience. Those of us who are about to be graduated from the Santa Barbara High School scarcely know whether we will be glad or sorrowful when we leave our school. We are glad that we have completed our high school work and have attained our am- bition of being high school graduatesg we are congratulating ourselves upon our achievement. Yet when we remember the friendships and associations, the clubs and parties, and all the other activities which comprise school life, we feel sorry that we must leave them all now, for we know that after graduation each one of us will set his own sails and be blown over a separate course in life. So it is a mixed emotion which possesses us nowg it is a feeling of delight and sorrow combined. Each year the senior class has traditions to observe, high ideals to attain, and a united spirit to maintain. Each senior class endeavors to outrival the preceding classes in achievement. Each class attempts to produce a better senior play than ever before. The class of nineteen twenty-six has gladly taken its place as a link in the endless chain of senior classes, and has faithfully maintained the traditions of the school. Now as our time is coming to a close, we who have borne the torch of leadership through- out the year are passing it on to the seniors of nineteen twenty-seven, confident that they will keep it burning brightly.

ll ' ' lm ' 'm'' 'n V E at G V L. U E .IlltlllllllllllllllllIllllllllItllllllllllllltlllllllllllllKI The administration of school affairs has this year been more nearly ideal than ever before. The associated student body, under the leadership of capable officers, has been successful in all its undertakings. The cafeteria and co-operative store have both proven great assets to the student bodyg they have been of service both to the individual students and to the organization as a whole. The merit system has been most successful this year, due to judicial management by the welfare committee. All branches of athletics have shown marked improvement this year. With three new coaches giving their best to build up successful teams, every team won high honors for the school. THE SENIOR PLAY The Senior Play in the Santa Barbara High School has always been a very high class production. Under the guidance of Mrs. Byrd, who established the Senior Play in the high school, and who directed it for many years, a very high standard was in- stituted, one which has never been lowered. The type of productions in this school is well above that of most high schools. We believe that Jeanne D'Arc this year has maintained the high standard established in previous years. Under the capable direction of Bliss Gertrude A. Urton, this year's play attained well-deserved praise and recognition as a leader among high school productions. Miss Urton is to be congratulated for her achievement in the directing of Jeanne D'Arc , her second Senior Play. PRIZES This year has been an exceptional year for the Santa Barbara High School in the attainment of high honors. Many individuals have honored themselves as well as their school by receiving prizes for their work. lklany essays written by our students have won recognition in state-wide con- tests. Franklin Anderson won a University of California plaque for his essay, Who should go to College . Powell Smith received second prize in a state essay con- test on the subject of Good Citizenship. ln the state essay contest of the American Chemical Society, Wendell Fletcher won first place and Albert Butler received second place. Several students received recognition for their oratorical work. Albert Eaves won the championship of two counties in the oratorical contest on the Constitution of the United States. ln the annual Shakespearean Festival at Ber- keley, Edmund Kelly won first place in class B, and Helen Cooley placed in the semi-finals. The Forge this year received an All-American rating from the Central lnter- scholastic Press Association, and also won second place in a Southern California contest. Many other prizes have been won by other students. Among these are numerous athletic awards. Such honors as these, even though awarded to individuals, reflect credit upon the entire school. Therefore, it may well be said that Santa Barbara High School ranks high among the schools of the state. ,dnlnf mm -M 'A ID Wlllll ll ll I lm l . L . . , - ,. . x rs' ' f gw tgffm , - .txt?x xxx!
