Soa OCF Re eS TS i Riss ar ote ey DRUSILLA WILSON e DONALD LEWIS Junior-One-Acts “Show Boat”’ Giada Fer ice age lead es ee ad In the fall of 1933, ninety shy boys and girls knocked at the gate of learning and were admitted. Immediately we were dubbed ‘Green Freshies’”” by the Seniors. Becoming Student Body members by initiation was a great feast of laughter, tears, scorn and contempt. We were commanded to do the most embarrassing things and were ridiculed by the upper classmen. The second year, as Sophomores, we lost the Freshies’ love of gayety. The Junior class was prominent in high school life. A series of one-act plays was given under the capable direction of Miss Har- vison. In May a superb banquet at the Desert Inn in Palm Springs honored the Seniors. President Marjorie Koger, as toastmistress, introduced the speakers of the evening. After the dinner, the guests danced under the stars. Then came the Senior year! Senior lords and ladies of B.U.H.S.. under the direction of King Cruncleton, initiated the Freshies and accepted them as subjects. We entertained the student body with a Lincoln’s Day program. Class members played prominent parts in the football and basketball championship teams. Presi- dent Ben Allen presided over all Senior meetings. The highlights of the end of the year were the A.A.U.W. tea for girls, Jr. the Sr. Banquet, The San Gorgonian, Baccaulaureate, and Commencement. HELEN GILMAN ’37 115 ®
