c A PAGE FIGHT Principal's Message Many changes at Balboa do not lend themselves to illustration in the pages of the Galleon. Many ot our changes come about through conferences, through elections, or through some word that may be said at assembly or in student council meeting. The develop- ments have taken place and we are during the current year revising the constitution to classify the position of the Board of Directors and its relation to the Student Council, at the same time cutting down the Board of Directors from unwieldy numbers to a more practicable size. The initiations of the Block B clubs is held within closed doors instead of in the front yard as formerly. This change has been generally approved as more effective and im- pressive, making the ceremony convey more meaning to the candidates. Setting up the auditorium patrol for rallies and assemblies has been an effective means of controlling any inattentive attitudes of students. This again cannot very well be pic- tured, but various hands have been at work planning out these important moves. These changes all go with the program and the various student affairs that are regularly pictured in the Galleon features.

Dean of Girls MRS. MARTHA SCHAl.Ll2R As the Galleon sails forth once again, another volume in the history of Balboa's student activities is written. The records in picture and word are merely reminders of the many happy hours spent in work and play, and of the many friendships made while working and playing together. High school years pass quickly, but they leave a perma- nent stamp on the lives and personalities of those who have lived them. The things well done leave a feeling of pride and accomplish- ment and the people with whom we associate during these happy years are often the people who remain friends for life. With the years, too, comes a deeper appreciation of all that Balboa has meant to her many graduates. May this volume too take its place on the book- shelves and in the hearts of all who have co- operated in the many activities here recorded. ax, V 'Nt ...-,,,,,. .,.-,,,..,... W -. --.1 I D e a n of B o y s MR. JAMES MORENA Our school offers tremendous opportunities for growth and development of both mind and body. We should take advantage of these opportunities so that we can enjoy and appre- ciate the things that we encounter each day of our lives. We have a right to expect some- thing out of education, but at the same time we must be ready to give much of our time and our efforts, for after all, the quality of what we get out of school is the same quality as what we put in. We have a responsibility to our parents, our school, and ourselves. Let us band togetherg join our hands, hearts and spirits, and move forward. There is no limit to what a group can accomplish which learned to work together. Let each of us try at all times to be useful and cooperative mem- bers of our school. We are proud of Balboa and the accomplishments of its students. PAGE NINE
