These primitive artisans, with the aid of a few simple tools produced baskets and pot- tery of amazing beauty and perfection. These unspoiled people Wor- shipped the forces of Nature, and lived a life untroubled by the bustle and hurry of the modern world. We, the staff, have enjoyed studying these people and, as we pre- sent this book, We sincerely hope that you will enjoy reading it as much as We have enjoyed compiling it.

Do not fail to do your best, not only on your own account, but on behalf of your High School.

The following officers were sef lected to guide the class through its first year: President, Iohnny Peters, Vice President, Gerald Bowling Secretary, Lois Taylor, Treasurer, Marie Mattie. Advisors were: Miss Smith and Mr. Houston. The bronze plates were a constant source of worry as they always seemed to need scrubbing. During the year we enjoyed two parties, both of which were at Forbes' swimming pool. To begin our Sophomore year on September 14, 1936, was indeed a pleasure, no more plates to scrub and no more orders to obey from up- per classmen. Our class of 97 students chose as officers: President, Gerald Bowlin, Vice President, Marie Mattie, Secretary, Betsy Clary, Treasurer, Harriette Payne. Two more enjoyable swims took place at the Forbes' pool. Now full-fledged juniors, our officers were: President, john MacDon- ald, Vice President, DeAlva I-linkle, Secretary, Lois LaBass, Treasurer, Grace Edith Gibbs. Harriette Payne attained the office of Student Council Representative. The junior Play, Growing Pains, a three act comedy, was given on December 10, 1937, under direction of Mr. Grove. The junior-Senior Banquet was held at the Desert Inn in Palm Springs on April 29. An entertaining program and dancing followed the banquet. A swimming party was held at Eorbesf junior girls ushered at the Commencement Exercises. The happy day came, September 19, 1938, when we threw out our chests, pulled in our chins, and became mighty Seniors. Election returns were: President, Fred Moore, Vice President, Ben Thomas Laflin, Secre- tary, Harriette Payne, Treasurer, Betsy Clary. The majority of the Student Body officers were Seniors, with joe Von Bader as President. . A bright day indeed was that day that heralded the arrival of the Senior sweaters, brilliant red with white insignia. A revival of the bull fighting days seemed at hand. The Annual drive resulted in a 10070 subscription by the Senior Class, followed closely by the Iuniors. The Senior Play, One Mad Night, was given before a packed au- ditorium on the night of April 21. joe Von Bader and Helen Green played the leading parts. The Iunior-Senior Banquet on April 28, at the Desert Inn in Palm Springs was a very successful affair. A gay and entertaining program and dancing followed the dinner. ' An enjoyable evening was enjoyed at the Senior dance at the Indio Legion Hall on May 12. The closing week of school brc ught Baccalaureate and Class Day june 4 and june 5 respectively. Commencement Exercises were held on june 7. Thus we pass on to the next step in life knowing that we take from the school identically what we have put into it. enior . We the Class of 1939, in sixty-three individual and distinct parts, being about to pass out of this sphere of education, in full possession of a crammed mind, well-trained memory, and almost superhuman understanding, do make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises by us at any time heretofore made, or mayhap, carelessly spoken, one to the other, as the thoughtless wish of an idle hour. To the Freshman Class that is to be, we bequeath any over- looked cuds of gum we may have left adhering to the underside of desks, assembly seats, or any likely or unlikely places. We have sometimes had to rid ourselves of these in too much haste to be able to pick and choose the most desirable means of dis- posal. We leave to the Freshmen any stubs of pencils, erasers or scraps of paper that we may inadvertently leave behind us in the excitement and haste of gathering up our cherished treasures for the last time. May they feel free to make use of them, and feel, perhaps, that they may, in some mystic way, impart some of our great knowledge to them. We give and bequeath to the Iunior Class all such boys as were not able to keep pace with such brilliant girls as compose the majority of our class, trusting that the Iunior girls may be able to hold firmly to them and steer them firmly next year through the gates of Commencement, that they may not share in the humilia- tion that has been ours at not being able to hold our men folks -as the women of the world would put it. We leave our manners in class meetings to the Sophomores. And now, before our limbs become too weak and our minds too hazy we do hereby will our separate possessions in the fol- lowing manner: Betty Lou Abernathy wills her place as first on the Senior Class list to lake Young.

Working under the leadersh' Cl ip of sponsors and officers, the lunior ass concentrated its efforts on raising money for the lunior-Senior Banquet, an annual affair to which all students eagerly look forward. Early in the fall we got off to a good start by selling pop, candy, and hot dogs at all the football games. But the first big event of the year was our play, Mamas Baby Boy, a hilarious comedy, given December 23, 1938, and was directed by Mr. Ralph Grove. Candy and hot dog sales at later basketball games and Play Day swelled our coffers. Held at the Women's Club in Indio, the two dances given by the lunior Class for all high school students provided much fun for every- one who attended. April 28 was the date set for the Iunior-Senior Banquet, a dinner- dance, which was held at the Desert lnn in Palm Springs. Using a lit- terbug theme, we laid careful plans and worked hard to make the af- fair a success. The girls of the Iunior Class ushered at the graduation exercises. The class officers are: President, lohn Richards, Vice President, Ned Peebler, Secretary, Barbara Freeman, Treasurer. Naseeb Malouf. The sponsors of the class are Miss Wanda Newell, Mr. Ralph Grove, and Mr. Gail Brumwell. mu Frost Reeder, Whiii1eEgf,CCiEQ-15 1 -,ln .U i, xS2l0A0l'l'l0l'Q C1055 r'-i Znd Row-Bradbury, Perdue, Arce, Pugh, Estel, Weed, Malouf, Berry, Millsap Durning, Martinez, Slay- Little, Millsap. den St n l M R G 1551151 Core' Omefo- 4th Row-Law, Roach, Damien, Barrilleaux Duncan.

Our class ad- visors, Miss Larkin and Coach Davies, have contributed a good deal to this class spirit as have also our class officers. The first record of our doings reveals that Carl Moore was elected president of the Sophomore Class by a majority. Vice President Was Leonard Weed, and Anna Mae Witten was elected secretary. Student Body representative was A. I. Barrilleaux and Annual representative, lean MacDonald. Penrhyn Millsap for the second year was to be treas- urer. Party? Of course We had a party! To be technical, it was a swim- ming party at Dr. Forbes' ranch, with all the good food that quiets a rav- aging appetite. Members of the Sophomore Class have contributed to physical ac- tivities as Well as to scholastic achie vements. ln our midst We have a football hero or two, tennis stars, track, basketball, ping-pong, and everything down to marble champions. lt has been fun being a Sophomore, and We feel that We have held our colors high.

The frosh class of '39 started out on their great adventure under the leadership of Miss McCollum and Mr. Smart, their class advisors. At our first class meeting of the school year, we elected our class officers. Those elected were as follows: lames Gaston, president, Ianet Swingle, secretaryg Ben Wilkin, treasurer. A good recipe for reducing is merely to be a scrub. Most of our noon hours were spent scrubbing bronze plates or running hither and carry- ing trays for upper classmen. Now that the end of our first year in high school is near, many a freshman is looking back to see what he has accomplished during this past year and is thinking rather seriously of what he intends to accom- plish in the years to come. Although this first year has been mainly one of adjustment most of the back looks and out looks are favorable and tend to make a successful go of fu fure high school days. me .f' 1 ,:,,,x.x.

This match provided the necessary experience for the freshmen and also a much needed practice for the team. Our first league match was with Banning on April 2l. The score of these hard-fought matches was l5-9 in Ban- ning's favor, defeating Coachella in all but the first, second and fourth singles.

Those chalking up victories for Coachella High Were: Iohnnie Peters, first singles and first doubles, and Iohn Richards, first doubles. Upon taking both 1-loltville and Laguna Beach 18-7, Coach BrurnWell's boys became fa ' vorites for league honors. C.V. easily Won from Banning 19-6 and whipped Beaumont the following Week 21-4.
