Oriental Poppy Colors .... Black and Red Motto: fDig. WE SIGHT THE OCEAN Let us pretend that our high-school education is a river and we are the sailboats that sail that river. Maybe in some classes we sail smoothly with the wind, and in others a storm descends causing our sailboat to appear as a blur before the eyes. This calm may in reality be a forerunner of much smoother sailing in the future. We, the members of the junior class, have sailed through storm and calm for three years. At the beginning of our travels our sailboat was last in number, but through constant effort we brought our boat next to the leading one. Even now we can see the leading boat fade into the distance and our sailboat take the place at the head of the procession. When freshmen, our class was ten in number, but it has gradually drifted away until at the beginning of this year there were only four of the original members. During the year Dolly Todd dropped school and was later married. Helen Woods, Who came from Garden City, entered the junior class making the present class consist of four members. It is from the depths of our hearts that we thank the teachers of the past and present, who have guided us toward the ocean which we intend to reach next year. mm - it B. H..S. 1 9 E5
