DO WE I-IEAR THE FIRST At the beginning of the school term, September 16, 1940, seventy-eight freshmen enrolled in Caruthers Union High School. Everyone was friendly and helpful to us with the possible exception of Ll few sophomores who tried to smear us with War paint. On the third day of school they had their big chance to initiate us at the freshman reception. Although the sophomores won the tug-0'-war and most other games, we made them fight hard for their victories and we were accepted as good sports and full-fledged Caruthers Union High School students. Soon afterwards, we held our first class meeting and elected the following officers: Rayne Motheral, president, joe Cabral, vice presidentg Norma Efird, secretary, and Norene Nielson, treasurer. There are many in our class who are outstanding in music. Patty Peters has been our most noted vocalist, and L nette uist has been willin and lad to 'ive instrumental 8 8 -S B.ick row, left to right: R, Mothernl, presi- dentg Mr. Butzlmeh, adviser, NI.

NOTES OF A NEW SONG solos. Many others have taken their places in the band while three of the majorettes are freshmen-liarbara Cox, -Iosephine Leone, and -Iohnnie Guynes. The girls have contributed to a number of school programs, the Girls' league being the organilation that has given them their best opportunity. ,loe Clahral was the only letterman in football and seemed to be the only well ltnown freshman representative in sports, but the basketball season came along and several more of our number became lsnown as good athletes. llideo Uoi, l.ester Bunn, xlaelt Christensen, l.eo Gomes, Robert Padgett, and Kenneth Kennedy were among the good players. The girls also put up a good fight. XVith the start we have had and all of our talent, you may expert a lot from us in the nest three years. It is our present intention to show you that your expectations are l-ulfilled in those three years.
