lHllllllVl5 7irAt SemeAte1- I The Beverly Hills High School is 'a wonderful place to be-a place where fine spirit, clean sportsmanship, sincere friendliness, and mutual respect abound. We must guard iealously these attributes and work constructively if we are to hold that indefinable something that has made Beverly more than iust another school. No institution ever stands still-it either goes forward or slides back. Nor are we as individuals exempt from the responsibility that this entails. Individually, we must act so that Beverly will be proud to acknowledge us as her representatives. Collectively, we will deserve then to share that all pervasive something too fine to analyze and too subtle to understand, but which is responsible for the real Beverly, and which makes it peculiarly our own.

R. G. MITCHELL Principal MARJORIE HAWTHORNE ISABELLE WADSWORTH HARRY M. ALTER Second Semeslter I There are many factors which determine the success or failure of an individual. The student who has the ability to apply the knowledge he receives in the classroom to the practical problems of life will find that such an ability is one of the primary factors of success. Education should be of lasting value and the principles involved in daily lessons must be retained for future application. There are other values that you should receive from your high school. Your student body has provided you with opportunities for service which have cultivated your powers of leadership, ability to co-operate with your associates in worthwhile enterprises, and assisted you in the development of good citizenship. As the school year comes to a close, I am sure you can look back upon your accomplishments and feel that your past year at Beverly Hills High School has been worth all the etfort and energy that you have put into it. You are to be congratulated upon your fine spirit, and I wish each one of you a pleasant vacation and I hope that your coming years will continue and be filled with worthwhile activities and accomplishments. R. G. MITCHELL.
