We’ve grown to the ardent faith Of a Trojan from head to feet. We’re strong for being the winner But cheer when a loser too. It takes courage to keep up the fight. But that’s what the Trojans do. We’d like to leave that spirt With the Trojans who are to follow, To hold and guard our ethics, And be Trojans of tomorrow. —Maxine E. Ramsay. May, 1QS2 Page Nineteen

Helen McGrath .Elizabeth Hubbard James Higinbotham ....Elizabeth Smith ......Ernest Sweet .......Opal Moran THE BRAT”, a three act comedy was presented by the senior class in the high school auditorium on March 16. The play was attended by a large crowd, and was very well received. It was directed by Miss Gertrude Kirtland. supervisor of English. A luxurious setting and exquisite costumes added much to the excellent acting of the cast. Opal Moran, who carried the lead of the “Brat , was exceptionally good. She made the gauche little slum girl the outstanding topic of conversation for several weeks. James Higinbotham was very handsome and very much at ease as Steve Forrester, who of course won the fair lady’s hand in the end. Boyd Finney played the part of the famous author with suitable dignity. The play was a lively story of a noted author who scoured the slums in search of a. model for his new book. When he at last found her, he took her to his home—a proceeding which greatly displeased his society mother and friends. Being such an eminent person, all three eligible young ladies, Angela, Jane, and the Brat tried to impress MacMillan with their charms. This controversy was enlivened by Jane’s acid humor and the Brat’s spontaneous friendliness. Angela, the fashionable debutante, wfas at last successful in the contest. When the book was finished. Mrs. Forrester convinced MacMillan that the Brat should be sent back to the slums from which she came. As she started to leave. Steve bounded into the family circle, announced his ideas, and departed for his western ranch, taking the Brat with him as his bride. Page Twenty May, 1932
