FEATU RES As hats and automobiles are streamlined, the feature section of the 1937 Bruin uses this design, being modernistic, up-to-date, and following the latest line of fashion. Seven girls were elected to be school favorites. Betty McLure receiving the highest number of votes cast by the whole school is NCampus Queen? The six favorites are Betty Bruner, Vivian Pierce, Doris Pierce, Mary Beth Scott, Marthe Scott, and Elaine Jones. This year not only their beauty but popu- larity, and the place they hold in school life as well, was taken into consideration. The Senior girls elected to represent their group were: Betty McLure, Best All-Round and Most Popular, Dorothy Proctor, Nlost Intelligent, and Betty llles- tayer, Best Dressed. The Senior boys were Steve Levee, Best Looking and Best Dressed, Claude Connally, lllost Popular and Best All-Round, and Norman Dowty, Most lntelligent. The underclassmen elected as the Hhlost Popular persons of their various classes, T. .l. Price, Junior, Mary Littell, Sophomore, and Judd Stafford, Freshman. The Carnival of Casa Manana, being the theme of tomorrow, is similar to the annual. Demure and petite Queen Betty of the House of lllcLure, and King Steve of the House of Levee, ruled lavishly over their court, consisting of Prin- cess Virginia of the House of Byram, and Prince Donald of the House of Siple, Lady Betty Mestayer and Lord Charles Puckett, Lady Josephine Ayres and Lord George Pearce, Lady Hope Ferrell and Lord Steve Lymberis. The carnivals of yester-years were well represented by the dancing of the Russian peasants, the Spanish subjects, the ball-room steppers, and the Chinese babies. The theme was further carried out by the effectively executed modern- istic da11ce. And, a new chapter is added to the book of progress for our Bruin. Snapshots liven up any annual. This year, in adding to the chapters of progress, the snapshots are better than ever. A new idea of combining class life and campus fun was instituted. Thus the last idea of newness closes the last page of the feature section. 4165

FAREWELL, SEN IORS Y The Spirit of Bolton to the Class of 1937: You came to me four years ago, round-eyed and eager children. Since the11 you have learned to choose the values of life, to discard its irrelevancies, until now you are ready to make your way through the complexities confronting you, as a lnodern streamlined 111otor car threads its way through the intricacies of busy streets, direct and sure, swift and graceful, beautiful and strong. You are about to leave me, perhaps to forget meg yet will I go with you through all the years, llly hand in yours, to guide through sunny ways and rocky roads, to the heights of achievement. For I, who nurtured you, watched you grow, must always be a part of you, in failure or success, in joy or sorrow. And so-with proud delight in your past, with hope and confidence in your future-Ave atque Vale! MARY L. THORNTON. To Our Seniors: Now the time has come when you realize how much you love your high school. Many are the times when your thoughts will tur11 to your experiences here, and you will say, wllhose were the happy days.

As a parting word, let me ask that you always remember we are interested in you and what you are doing for yourselves Elllll the world. JOSEPH D. SMITH. 4 I5 D
