Senior Class 7 A E, THE SENIQR CLASS of Whittier Union High School, have changed our aspect of four years ago to one of more or less intelligence. From our freshman year on we have tried to look worthy of approval in the eyes of our advisers and leadf CYS. We have been everfready supporters of our class and have also taken an active part in the Student Body. Our whole spirit has been in every thing we have attempted, and we are proud to say that cooperation on the part of all of us has never been lacking in our undertakings. Each member of the class may be duly praised for the wholefhearted assistance he has rendered for the benefit of not only the class but the Student Body as a whole. Our scholastic standard has been excellent. Many of the students are graduating with very high honors. The banquet that we sponsored in honor of the class of 1928 was such a success that we feel that we have social as well as scholastic ability. We pride ourselves on being leaders in the athletic department. The boyshave gone out and played with untiring efforts to make this season a glorious success. Like our mighty pioneer fathers, we have struggled on, plodding faithfully and giving the best that was in us to gain our goal. Eureka! We have found it! But it is only a new beginning. Before our forefathers lay a new, strange, incomparable vastness. So it is with us. We are on the brink of a new life, and we enter it with hope and anticipation in our hearts. We feel sure that there is nothing too great for us to overcome. With this courageous outlook on life we shall be enabled to conquer any obstacle that may confront us. TWENTY six
