Adviser 4 . . , Mr. Arnold Ladies and gentlemenl You may look upon this class as being one fine example of honesty and loyalty to a fellowman, At t beginning of the year, Eleanor found that for the last year's party they had spent t e money Georgia Lee Gblander had en- trusted to the class treasury, where sh! krfew it would be perfectly safe for next year. Right away within a few monthskthefclass began collecting dues to pay for the debt, and in March of 37 the debt Ui S600 was all paid, Wonderful, wasn't itl The big event of the year for the Juniors of course, was the Junior-Senior ban- quet, The class gave it on June 4 and as is always true of these banquets, the Jun- iors were working hard for a month and a half before hand. After hunting unsuccessfully for a theme to go with the Senior motto, He con- quers who conquers himself, the Juniors decided to carry out the idea of travel in foreign lands, Features of America, Spain, ltaly, Switzerland, and other nations were expressed in the decorations, and Herb Neuman was the genial toastmaster for the occasion, A great deal of credit should be given to Mr, Gates for his help with the menu and decorations, to Miss Schaap for her help in preparing the menu, and to lvlr. White for his coaching of the Junior speeches. Page Fifteen

Invictus Out ot the night that covers me, Black as the Pit trom pole to pole, l thank whatever gods may be For my unconguerable soul. ln the tell clutch ot circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud Under the bludgeonings ot chance lvly head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place ot wrath and tears Looms but the l-lorror ot the shade, And yet the menace ot the years Finds, and shall find, me unafraid. lt matters not how straight the gate, l-low charged with punishments the scroll, l am the master ot my fate: l am the captain ot my soul. -William Ernest l-lenley

Mr. Emrick l-lal l'lal lt's the Juniors' turn to laugh at the Sophomores this timel Last year the present Sophomores pulled the present Juniors through the mud, but this year the Sophomores started the year off with a splash in their own mud hole. The Sophomores were the first really large class to enter Shafter l-ligh School. They have about eighty members, lt is expected that in the following years, the classes will be as large as or even larger than this one, J During the student body drive, 75 percent of the students became members of the Associated Student Body. Their boys have taken an active part in student body activities and athletics, Elmer Unruh won honor for the class by taking first place in the lower-division cross country racer The Sophs had eight of their members in the student body play, Growing Pains. They had two members, James Livers and Amanda Johnson, on the Valley Champion- ship debate squad. Also, Mary Crandall took a very close second place in the popu- larity contest during the middle of the year. Toward the end of the year they worked up a play called Elmer with the help of Mr. Emrick, their adviser, and gave it to the student body as a pay assembly. The class of 39, Shafter's first big class, had a busy year,
