BETTY SCHAUEELEB I am 1201 only witiy in myrelf, B111 the mare ffm! wit if in 0the1'r. Whenever you see a group of girls gathered in the hall chattering and giggling, Betty is sure to be among them. She has a thoroughly ripe sense of humor and a unique way of expressing it. Her membership in Pretenders has been a great advantage to that organization, and we will not soon forget her amusing portrayal of Toby in Ways and Meansf, As a part of the Glee Club she has displayed her ability with eager enthu- siasm. Whenever there is a contest in the school or committee work to be done in the class, Betty is always the first to volun- teer. lf loyalty and cooperative spirit ever had a part in the attainment of an ambition, Betty will certainly be one of the first to accomplish hers. ELIZABETH SCHAUEELEB My hear! If lrlze ar Neel. Geniality is a fortunate quality and as the possessor of it. Tizel should be very proud. Elizabeth is a grand girl to know, for her loyalty and kindness make her the best of friends. We all depend upon Tizel to do this and that, for her reliability never fails and she is always helpful and willing. Elizabeth is the President of Pretenders and she very efficiently carries all the responsibilities that go with this honor. As one of the Glee Club. she accepts her duties unselfishly, for whatever she enters into she does eagerly and with her whole heart. ALICE SEBBEE Be you blillae and fi07Z7Zy.H Al has almost everything that can be found in the all around girl. Her athletic ability is one of her outstanding traits, and under her leadership the basket-ball team was again victorious. Her dramatic talent is unbounded, and the Pretenders were under her guidance during the first semester. She has the determination and will power to make anything a success and has done this with the business end of the Weather-Cock. Al's fiery pep talks set us all on our toes and certainly brought results. Wherever she may be next year or in years to come, Alice will always be in the midst of the best and loved by all as she has been here.

DIANA NUTTER Vilma if bold, and gfl0Lfl?6'.fJ' Newer fearful, Always a student, always a friend, Diana is one who unites beauty with alertness of mind. Although one of the younger members of the group, she has been a part of the Barstow spirit, having a real interest in the affairs of the school and the class. Diana has that rare quality about her of being extremely under- standing. She has a peculiarly sympathetic nature and an honest consideration for her classmates. Witli a sense of humor like Di's and her thoughtfulness towards all, she will go far and make even more friends than she has at Barstow. PATSY PEABODY Tlm.re afmnt her llffllll lm' .rimll read Ike perfec! zmyi' of hU!!UI',H Wfhere solid persistency and straightforwardness will win, Pat will win. She is one who thinks much and talks littleg yet her presence is always felt. Wlietlier in class or while playing. Pat is usually the one to come forth with some subtle pun that puts everyone in gales of laughter. Her sincerity and frankness are certainly admirable qualities and are much respected by the whole class, Her outstanding achievement is art, which she is capable of expressing in many forms. We all hope that you will go on and do something with it, Pat- --you can do grand things. NANCY POTEET 'Vlmf .flue if fair, and, fairer llmu lim! zmnf, Of 1z'n1m'1'r111,i' I'fl'lllC'.f,H Nance is one of those rare persons who leads the class both scholastically and in its many activities. Every time the honor roll is read she heads the list. It seems to be a habit with her. Maybe she studies when we're not looking. Besides scholastic standing, Nance also rates high in athletics for as a forward she was invaluable on the basket-ball team. There seems to be no end ro Nancy's abilities for she also has done a splendid job helping put the Weather-Cock to press this year. Her spirit in all she does will certainly lead her to greater things, but we hope she will never soar out of our sight.

VIRGINIA SIMPSON Full of the mill? of 1911111411 kiml11e.r.r. Witlm her persistent nature and conscientious ways, Simpy is one of the joys of our class. For almost as long as we can remem- ber her name has been on the honor roll. She also has been one of the star forwards on our basket-ball team for she could stand under the goal and literally roll them in for us. Virginia has been one of the best Pretendersg her try-out was one of the few awarded a Magna Cum Laude. I'm sure that we shall never forget her portrayal of Sneak, the private detective, in the presentation of Two Gentlemen of Sohof, Simpy will always be a source of fun to any group she's in, for her love of good times will be appreciated by all those who come in contact with her. BETTY PAYE SMITH Her mice uvzr ezfer mfr, Gentle, and lozzff au excellefzl firing in 1l'0llldlI,H No one has a better appreciation of athletics than Betty Faye. For this reason she has led the Athletic Association through another successful year. Her willing nature and cooperative spirit have always won her the affection of all her classmates, and have made her a favorite with the underclassmen. Betty Faye's ability as a leader and a manager was brought to light this spring when she so capably presided over the Athletic Banquet. As a member of Pretenders, she has proved herself to be an interested and eager worker, Her calm way of doing things and the serenity with which she meets her problems have been admired by all. It seems to be Betty Faye's optimistic attitude and her thoughtful consideration of all that have put her in such good stead with everyone. DEBORAH SMITH The ham! thai hall? made you fair baffa made yon good. Wlien Deb came back to Barstow last fall after an absence of two years, she fitted right into the class again as if she had never been away. Her adaptable easy-going nature is a joy to those around her, for she is always friendly. Deb's voice is a great addition to the Glee Club and she is a worthy member of Pretenders also. She has the wonderful quality of perfect poise, and always seems at ease no matter what the situation. Deb's charm and grace will carry her a long way and we wish her all the luck in the world.
