Sometimes l wonder if any of you say, Oh, l don't mind schoolp its just the principle of the thing. I would like to hear your tale of woe. Maybe we can do something about it. Some one has said, A man's character is the sum total of all that he has overcome. We all have fears to overcome. Know- ledge has helped man to advance by rationally explaining his environment and overcoming his superstitions and fears. Some of us fear physical contacts with others: while some of us fear the loneliness of solitude. The fear of being left out often prompts students to do things that they would not have in anyway considered doing. Many students go wrong because they are afraid that the crowd will leave them out. Use the knowledge and skills that you are developing here, and will continue to develop through life, to overcome your fears, and your character will be molded in granite. Sincerely, Your principle L. W. RICHARDS 5 Qf ?fV I A I Q A 5E,'N fm Q xfx Seninr Qllasf will I, Lorraine Wangberg, will my ability to read fast to Alberta Kill- ingsworth.

PROPHECY FOR THE CLASS GF '39 TEN YEARS FROM NOW As I was passing through my old home town, Biggs, the other day on a freight car I decided to stop to see what my classmates were doing. I first went to the high school where I found Beth As- kew teaching home economics and Elizabeth Wellman teaching algebra. Next I went to the principal's office and to my surprise I found Bill Gray sitting in the principal's chair. We sat and chewed the fat for some time and I found that Doris Brewer was married and raising a family. While we were sitting there, a young woman came in that I thought I should know. I asked Principal Gray about her and I found she was my old friend Doris Nelson, now his secretary. As I roamed around the cam- pus, I ran into Ole Grell who was there to see Mr. Hillman about his pigs that had swede fever. I went into the gym and found Bill Thebeck remodeling the stage. I asked him about Dorothy and he said she had been mar- ried twice and was in Reno at the present time. She was think- ing of a permanent residence there. I walked to the funrace room and found Marvin Lundberg was the janitor of Biggs High. He really wanted to be an electrical engineer. I walked on up town to an old store that used to be Prydes, but Mae Morgan and her husband had bought it and I stopped to chat with Mae. She is now married and busy watching Happy Iunior. We walked across the street to a beauty salon and found Lois Nelson and Lorraine Wangberg doing very good business. In the window of the shop I saw a poster that said 'Tom Kadowaki and his orchestra would be Palm Grove the next Saturday night. I went to the grocery store and saw that iokey, old George Mc- Lean. He had put on much weight. He said that his wife fed him too well. I walked along Main Street and found quite a few new buildings. One was a large brick hospital that a young doctor by the name of Norman Lofgren had established for crippled chil- dren. He married a young nurse whose name used to be Betty Allen and they are having a fine time because they both love children. I walked into the hospital and found .Maxine Teel and Dartha Dreyer who used to be old pals still clinging together. They are both chief nurses there at the the Well-Bones hospital. Also there nursing was Corlyss Peterson, but she doesn't get far be- cause she is too busy with her new husband, Roy Grell who is an electrical engineer. I then went to the basement of the hospital and found Bill Hi- ett feeding the furnace. Being a hobo was hard on his con- science. I talked with him for quite a while because, as usual, he likes to chew the fat. He said that Earnest Evans was a captain on a navy ship and that Bob Reid was cleaning gutters in the Bronx. He said George Lantzberger had joined the navy and was still popular with the girls. I walked into the pool hall named Come and Get It , run by my old classmate, Leslie Hammer. I found Russel Baker and Bob Sizelove playing cards. Russel had had his leg shot off in the war of 1942 and couldn't work. If Russel didn't work, then Bob would- n't. Leslie tells me that Vonnie is a school teacher up in the moun- tains and is still a man-hater. I then went over to the warehouse and saw Tommy Carlson waiting to have his rice tested. He said that his wife, Gertrude Killingsworth who really wanted to be a nurse was now nursing their two children. I walked to the office of the warehouse and saw a woman whom I recognized by her red hair, bending over the books and files. It was Calley Fawns. She said she went to Business College for two years. I went toward Richvale and found a new shop. It was The Smart Iitterbug Shoppe run by Rose Olmstead, and her old pal Edlo White was designing all the clothes. I went on a little further where I found an experiment station. To my surprise I found Kenjiro Kadowaki owned it. He said that the dredger had dug up his garden in Rio Bonito and he was now trying to discover a scientific way to grow vegentables. He told me he had married Annabelle Nakashima after a courtship of two weeks and she was now in the city studying art. I went back to Biggs and I was about to get on the train, I saw Marvin Lundberg there. He said he had quit his job as janitor at the school and was going to hop a freight with me. We stopped in Gridley and found an office named Super- Sleuth , a woman's detective agency. Anna Rya was the G Woman behind the bars - I mean desk. She told me that Evelyn Anderson had married a forest ranger and was drawing mount- ain scenes. I boarded the train again and had an accident somewhere in Los Angeles. I woke up in the hospital with a blonde nurse stand- ing over me that I didn't know. The next day I was in better shape and recognized my nurse as Gladys Switzer. We talked of our classmates of 39 and laughed over the times we skipped classes and put tacks in our dear teachers' chairs. Someday we hope our class will have a reunion.

IUNIOR CLASS SPONSORED MANY ACTIVITIES The Iunior class is the smallest class in the school with 33 mem- bers. It was the first one to have the IOO per cent sales of Student Body Cards and received the cash prize. This class was a very active one and sponsored many activit- ies during the year 1938-39. These are some of the activities: a theatre party for the Seniors, luncheon, movie, The Plainsmanu lunior play, Iunior-Senior banquet and the Iunior Prom. The Iunior Class selected Steve Gomez as a delegate for the Older Boys' Conference at Drobbish Ranch near Bangor on Cc- tober 8th and 9th. Annette Lofgren, Idona Farnworth, Muriel Gotthold, and Harriet Brown were selected as delegates for the Older Girls' Conference at Richadson Springs on Mach 25 and 26 The Iuniors were active enough to Win the championship in inter class basketball and boxing. The Iuniors together with the Seniors, sponsored a magazine sale as a means of raising some money to pay for the electric score board which the classes of '39 and '40 presented to the school.

SOPHOMORES d SECOND LARGEST CLASS OF '39 The Sophomore Class is the second largest in school with 36 members. The class ot '4l were very busy this year and sponsored a great many activities. A tew ol these activities were two movies, 'Rose ot the Rancho' and fOlarence', a luncheon on which they made a favorable profit, and a class skating party. This Sohpomore class also sent a delegate to Older Boys' con- terence which was held at a ranch near Bangor, and two repre- sentatives to Older Girls' Conlerence which held session at Rich- ardson Springs March 25 and 26. Another tactor ot importance to this class was that they won the yell contest at the Freshman re- ception, and the president was presented the trophy on which the name ot the class was engraved. From careful observance ot this class, it is believed that they will make very good leaders in the school during their last two years there, under the leadership of their capable advisors, Miss Rosenberg and Mr. Reynolds.

FRESHMAN ACTIVITIES The Freshman Class started out with the Sophomores scoring a victory over them in the Annual Freshman - Sophomore Brawl. They showed the other classes they were good losers and thru- out the year proved to be good sports in everything that they paticipatecl. During the past school year there were many lunch- eons put on by the Various organizations, but the Freshmen put on one that topped all the others, thus proving that they had great ability in working together. If they continue to go forward as they have during the past year, they should be among 'the finest classes to go through this High School. First Semester Joy Ruf ...........

This left the two other annual dra- matic activities - the lunior Play and the Senior Play. On the evening of April 5, the luniors presented their hilarious comedy, Special Delivery , in the high school gym. The cap- able cast of Betty Persons, Harriet Brown, Patty Beilby, Eileen Sanders, Annette Lofgren, Darwin Dreyer, Bob Conway, Har- vey Chaplin, Norman Miguel, and Elwood Randolph, under the direction of Mr. Evers, made the play a great success. The Seniors chose as their play the rollicking comedy, Spring Fever, which was presented on the evening of May 12. Through out the three acts of fast moving, laugh provoking action, the cast well directed by Mrs. Harry, kept the audience in gales of laughter, making this one of the outstanding plays ever present- ed at the high school. The cast included Marvin Lundberg, Bill Hiett, Boy Grell, Elizabeth Wellman, Dartha Dreyer, Bose Olm- stead, Evelyn Anderson, George Lantsberger, Anna Ryan, Cor- lyss Peterson, Arthur Grell and Norman Lofgren.

Quite a number of club members attended. This year the club sold pennants, hats, and emblems as a means of making money. This new venture turned out quite suc- cessful.

The purpose of the boy' club is to have all the boys get together and bring out the troubles or problems which they have to tace. The club also helps the boys who do not get along so well in school by giving all boys a chance to take part in some activity. The Boys' Kangaroo Court Was organized in l936 and Was ta- ken up again this year. Here the boys bring out their problems and troubles and those suspected or accused ot toul play are put before the court which decides the verdict. The Boys' Club sponsored many different activities: they spon- sored the picture Lives ot a Bengal Lancer, a skating party, rattles at basketball games, and a pie and ice cream sale. The biggest task taken up by the club was the putting on ot the box- ing rnatches, which turned out to be a very big success. .,f' THE PICTURE - 0 Left to right:H. Brown, B. Per sons. D. Nelson, C.

CHAPTER No. 87 The Future Farmers of America is the national organization of farm boys studying vocational agriculture in the public high schools throughout the United States. Six years following the founding of the organization at Kansas City, 47 states, the Terri- tory of Hawaii and Puerto Rico, had formed Associations of Fu- ture Farmers of America, affiliated with the national organiza- tion. The motto of the Future Farmers of America is: Learning to doy Doing to learn: Earning to livep Living to serve. The emblem is made up of five symbols - the owl, the plow, and the rising sun, within the crosssection of an ear of corn which is surmounted by the American Eagle. Upon the face of the em- blem appear also the words, Vocational Agriculture and F.F.A. The owl is symbolic of wisdom and lcnowledaeg the plow is the syrnbol of labor and tillage of the soilg the rising sun is emble- matic of progress and the new dav that will dawn when all farm- ers are the product of vocational agricultural schools, and have learned to co-operateg the cross section of an ear of corn is in- dicative of the national scope of the organization, as is also the American Eagle. The emblem is protected by copyright. OFFICERS First semester Second Semester Elwood Randolph ..,... ......... P resident ,........... ..,.,. E ugene Fillmore Steve Gomez .... .... . . ......
