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.

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.

She has actually grown up here, and the standards and traditions of Barstow have been im- planted within her. For thorough reliability she has no superior, and because of this fine quality she has been admired and loved by everyone. Her clear voice has made her a great addition to the Glee Club, which under her leadership this spring, presented a most successful operetta. To the Pretenders she has been a worthy member, accepting her responsibilities fairly and willing- ly. Anne will not be around here next year, but the name she has in the school and the remembrance of her fine spirit will always be among us. IEANNE STEVENS A home, 41 lJ0r5e.' Aly kingdom for a home. Although Stevie has been at Barstow only a year, she has made herself known and liked by all. Her quiet dignity and reliability make us proud to call her a Barstow girl. Composure and toler- ance are the two best words to describe Jeanne, for she is almost imperturbable. When we first think of Jeanne we can usually see her in jodhpurs with her horse beside her, for horses are her main love and she rides them to many a victory. Stevie has one ot' the most beautiful voices in the Glee Club, and when she leaves we hope it will be to aim for higher things in the musical world. HELEN TROWER Thom eyer, the break of day, Lightr that do mirlead the morn. Helen's one year as a Barstow Senior has made her one of the best liked girls in the class. She is a fine Glee Club member and keeper of the minutes in that organization and was also one of the much applauded actresses in the operetta. Helen is always full of gaiety and sparkle and she makes a grand classmate, for there is no pomp or glitter about her interest in others. She adds a certain twinkle to the otherwise dull routine of school life.
