Outlook — Work. Piiiii ' si. iepii Senior v_ylass ilist S isiorij PRINGTIME — June springtime, to be exact, and seniors. There were lots of seniors! Short and tall seniors, fair and dark ones, and they all tread a path across the stage to where a smiling man extended a leather covered parchment. They were graduated! The leaders of the class were Edmond Roberts, president; Pauline Shepard, vice- president; Estelle Ferguson, secretary; and Genevieve Daniels, treasurer. The first problem that confronted them was that of money, and how to earn it in order to publish the Crimson and Gold year book. A senior afternoon dance was given which was a financial success and caused much enthusiasm among the members of the graduating class. The class rings and pins were the next subject of interest to be considered. The seniors finally decided on a ring with a black ground that had a coat of arms. Colton was printed across the top in raised letters. These were ver ' different from those that had been worn by the previous classes and were very good looking. The seniors thought that a class play would be a good way to earn more money so plans were immediately started for this function. Between the two plays, The Reckoning and Station YYYY, the boys put on a very clever act. They were dressed as dainty ballet girls in fluffy dresses. Talent was shown that had never been exhibited before. This went over big and the program as a whole was pronounced a success. The seniors craved excitement and fun so they decided to have a dress- up day. Everyone was to be fined twenty-five cents for not appearing in costume and as consequence they all dressed like children or tramps, and were garbed in ridiculous costumes. In the way of amusements, games w ' ere played such as drop the handkerchief and leap frog. This incident furnished much tun for the student body, as well as the faculty. Graduation clothes was the next topic for discussion. The boys immediately decided on dark suits. The girls, after many heated arguments, decided on pastel crepe-de-ehine dresses. In the way of entertainment a senior barn dance was given. This was quite unusual as it was the first night dance that any graduating class had been allowed to have. The hall was decorated with purple and white irises, the class flower and colors. Bales of hay were around to give the barn effect. Various games were also played. Those who w ' ere invited, besides the seniors, were the faculty and the track men. The events of senior week were the following: June 7 — Junior- Senior dance, Lincoln School Auditorium. Juniors and seniors were invited. June 9 — Baccalaureate Service, High School Auditorium. Sermon by Rev. Robert I. McKee of the Methodist Church. June 11 — Class Night, High School Auditorium. Public cordially invited. June 1 1 — Party at High School. Seniors invited. June 12 — Senior Breakfast, Colton High School Quadrangle. June 1? — Commencement Exercises, High School Auditorium. Speaker, Rev. Cliiford F. Jones. June 14 — Rotary Luncheon, Anderson Hotel. Seniors in ited. — Estelle Ferguson. i ,;fe£j .

H. S. is bringing home The Senior Class tonight. For tour short years our ship has cruised Over the salty brine; But all too soon our course is done, We ' ve come to ' 29. We ' re starting on another voyage, That endless seems to be; But we shall do our best to sail And gain the victory. This voyage is on the Sea of Life, And we the sailors are; We ' ll hoist the sails and man the ropes. Until we see the star. The goal of our ambitions is This star so bright and fair; And when we view its shining rays. We ' ll know at last we ' re there. —Edith Rose, ' 29 I he Junior v l ass As the preliminary step towards organizing a suceessful junior class, the members elected Herbert Bosch to the presidency. Herbert had served in the position of vice-president the previous year, and had proved his ability to conduct class meetings. He was also a student representative on the Associated Student Body Executive Board. In athletics too, Speck showed versatility, strai ght forwardness and fair play. He was a mainstay of the varsity football squad, and helped Colton to win the Tri-County Track and Field Meet. Janalee Watson was chosen vice-president, although she had never before served in an ofiicers capacity. Her natural zeal and enthusiasm, and the desire to put everything over big made her work successful. Watty starred in girls ' baseball and basket-ball, and showed no mean ability along dramatic lines. In order that the minutes of the meetings should be kept accurately, Willa Mae Irwin was selected to be secretary. She also took charge of the financial matters. Willa Mae entered C. U. H. S. in the latter part of her sophomore year, coming from Anaheim High School. Grace Garrett was elected to the position of junior class editor, and represented the class of ' 30 on the annual staif. Grace was a member of the victorious varsity debate team, and also won second place in the interclass essay contest. Other juniors held offices in various organizations of the school. Johnnie Adamson was Colton ' s midget yell leader, and a member of the Associated Student Body Executive Board. All of the debate club officers were juniors, with Johnnie Adamson as president, Grace Garrett as vice-president, Ina Lucy Savage as secretary- treasurer, and Marian Rick, her assistant. Grace Garrett was vice-president of the Scholarship Society, and Ina Lucy Savage was secretary. Grace Robbins was vice- president of the chemistry club, Marian Rice was secretary, and Ina Lucy Savage was the publicity manager. — Grace Garrett, ' 30. Junior ass Herbert Bostn, President Grace Garrett, Junior Editor Janalee Watson. Vice President WiLLA Mae Irwin, Secretary-Treasurer Josephine Atherton, Adviser L_ Junior v_vlass llist isionj ON September 17, I92S, the elass of W) enrolled m C. U. H. 8 , its objeet beinj; to show the rest of the school what pep meant and, incidentally, to obtain education. As a starter, they elected Herbert Bosch president, Janalee Watson vice-president, Willa Mae Irwin secretary-treasurer, and Grace Garrett class editor. The juniors have taken an active part in the daily work of the school as well as in the extra-curricular activities, and have contributed something to every project which has come up. For instance, three of the four varsity debaters, Johnnie Adam- son, Grace Garrett, and Marian Rick, were juniors. In the interclass essay contest, Grace Garrett and Lois Lloyd won second and third places, respectively, with their compositions, Music and Lindbergh. Janalee Watson, Jodie Lugo, Bill Tillman, Paul Tremaine, Louise Logan, and Ralph Bunje were leads in the annual operetta, Peggy and the Pirate, and Virginia Corbit and Louise Logan were characters in the associated student body play, The Rear Car. In the iield of athletics, the boys showed their loyalty to their school by turning out for each event. As a result of hard work and no mean ability, Robert Flynn, Herbert Bosch, Bill Tillman, Paul Tremaine, John Harrah, Herbert Andrews, and Jack Waldron made the varsity football team. Basketball lettermen were Paul Tre- maine, Bill Tillman, Herbert Andrews, and Earl Webster. Arthur Foster, cinder- path captain. Jack Waldron and Herbert Bosch placed in the Tri-County Track and Field Meet, which was held on Jantzen field, March 26. In baseball. Earl Webster, Herbert Bosch, and Bill Tillman won honors. For the purpose of raising funds to fill the junior coffers in preparation for the junior-senior dance, the class staged a Junior Play Nite on February 2 1 , which proved to be a great success. Grandma Pulls the String, a one-act comedy, was first on the program. Grandma ' s hints and insinuations to young Bill Thornton on the art of proposing, and Bill ' s discomfort and obvious anger kept the audience in spasms of laughter. Lois Lloyd, Grace Garrett, Ralph Bunje, Dorothy McKay, Willa Mae Irwin, and Alice Kathryn Irwin were the cast of characters. During the intervals between plays, a group of boys gave a clever and comical rendition of the Ice Cream song. The second play, A Mother ' s Influence, tended a little more towards the serious, and introduced a moral. The cast was composed of Grace Robbins, David Bailey, Ruth Barr, Ray Gough, Sam Allen, Jodie Lugo, and Marie Beers. On November 16, the class held a Junior Hop in the upper hall, and invited as their guests the Colton varsity football squad. As a climax to a successful and prosperous year, the annual junior-senior dance was held in the Lincoln auditorium. The work and ambitions of the juniors, the class of 30, may he summed up in their motto, Forever Forward. — Grace Garrett SO. Page Twenly-ono Ooph pnomoPG Cla ss Eleanor Larsen, President Pauline Hough, Secretary-Treasurer Ed Weiser, Vice President DONALD Mathews, Sophomore Editor Edna C. Battin and D. H. McIntosh, Advisers I he OophomoPG v_vlass THE dignified sophomores entered in September, 1928, to take the place of the green freshmen. They had gained a great deal of experience, and had little trouble in getting settled in their places. Miss Edna Battin was again class adviser. At an early date Eleanor Larsen was elected president; Ed Weiser, vice- president; and Pauline Hough, secretary. Their freshmen colors, green and white, were again chosen to show that they were not ashamed of their frosh experiences. As fall advanced, many sophomores were found taking an important part in football. Ray Gough played on the varsity, and McNair, Rojas, Turner, and Payne played on the reserves. On the championship Class C team were Captain Weiser, West, Crilly, Wear, Shamblin, Mathews, Coe, Logan, Gibbons, and Hansen. Weis- er was easily the most valuable man on the team. Crilly and West also played an important part in the success of the team. On January 25, the sophomore dance was held. This was the first social event of the class and it succeeded beyond expectations. At the beginning of the basketball season, the sophomores had more than their share of representatives on the court. Ray Gough played an important part on the team. Ed McNair and Wallace Payne were mainstays on the near-championship class B team. Captain Crilly, Shamblin, and West played their second year on the class C team. With the arrival of the interclass debates, the sophomores were prepared to take the championship. Patrick Gibbons, Katherine McKay, Ruth McGuire, Dorothy Tanner, Evelyn Mae Corgill, and Mary Louise Savage put up a stiff fight against the seniors and the juniors, and defeated them. But the freshmen brought panic to the sophomore ranks when the sophomore-freshman debate went to the freshmen in a close 2-1 decision. Kenneth Hodge and Ruth Maguire, class representatives of last year, again upheld the class honors in the essay contest. Although they did not place, they put up a good fight. Many members were in the orchestra and the glee club. Patrick Gibbons had a leading part in the operetta. Howard Creason and Arthur Hewitt were in the student body play. Eleanor Larsen was the pride of the school in her tennis ability. She went without a defeat through almost all the season. Irwin Logan also was on the tennis team. Girls who made the required points for a G. A. A. letter were Neeta Yates, Alma Heatley and Marian Miranda. When track season opened, the sophomore hopes were centered on Ed Weiser and Elmer Crunk, Class C stars of last year. Elmer Crunk placed in the League meet. Wallace Payne, new member from Missouri, was the only sophomore to take first in this event. The others who placed were Edward Pearson and Foster Hall. Consistent point winners for the class C team were Doble, Castleberr ' , West, Hansen, Burns and Crilly. Doble showed expert work as a sprinter, and Ed Weiser vaulted in the Southern California finals in the class C division. Sophomores on the varsity baseball team were Lester Hastings, Juan Rojas, Ed Weiser, Ray Gough, Vernon Wear, Frank Lopez, Wallace Payne and Ray Yates. • — Donald Mathews M.

McDonald, Adciser ' iiRe Tttpnty-fcnir I he rreshman L la ss AT the opening of Colton Union High School last September there were enrolled about 130 freshmen, new and bewildered by the strange procedures and sur- roundings of the school. Earl Hough was elected president of the class, Bill Hcndrickson vice-president, Maxme Olsen secretary, and Petrina Lacorte treasurer. With the help of their class adviser, A. C. McDonald, the freshmen became an organized group, ready for the year ' s business. Into all the activities of the school the freshmen plunged, and showed true school spirit. ■The interclass debates, sponsored every year by Coach Gillaspie and Miss Olive E. Clark, were held during the week February 26-March 1, and were won by the freshman class. Those who were on the winning team were Lois Snyder, Maude Alexander, Eleanor Maguire, Oma Belle Pixley, Andy Sargent, and Jack Rairdon. The question debated was Resolved: That modern advertising is more detrimental than beneficial to society. In athletics, the freshmen showed up well. The girls who made their class team were Roberta Templeton, Frances McKenney, Lela Steward, Petrina Lacorte, Edith Crowdcr, Vida McElyea, Leona Chestnut, Juanita Gray, Loraine McCoy, Mary MuHins, Jaunita Taylor, and Delia Olson. Petrina Lacorte made the All Colton team. The frosh girls also had a class track team. Ruth Weiser was chosen captain. The members of this team were Petnna Lacorte, Eleanor Jones, Marie Black, Catherine White, Maude Alexander. Charla Gray, Jaunita Gray, Jaunita Taylor, Leona Simonds, Mary Mullins, Helen McKinsey, Barbara Hicks, Dorothy Doty, and Delia Olson. Not only the girls but also the boys showed up well in athletics. Those who made the pee-wee football team were Earl Hough, Gordon Maltzberger, Burton Clinc, Everett Merryfield, and Don Diess. Those on the lightweight team were Ivan Castle and Raymond Cocking. Many of the frosh boys were on the pee-wee basketball team. They were Bob and Bill Hendrickson, Bud Roach, Don Diess, Earl Hough, Jack Dacre, Burton CHne, Vincent Alexander, and Clarence Bell. Ivan Castle and Johnny Seinturier were on the varsity team. Vincent Alexander, AUard Anderson, Earl Hough, Paul Leeton, Gordon Maltz- berger. Bob Hendrickson, Bud Roach, and Tommy Nines entered in the Class C section of the Tri-County track meet. January 14, 1929, the freshmen had a class party. They held it m the study hall, which was decorated in the class colors, orchid and white. Thirty freshmen attended this event and had a merry time. Those present were divided into three groups, one group called Sap ' s Semi- nary, another Boob ' s College and the third Mutt ' s Academy. In the games that followed the group that scored the most was Sap ' s Seminary. After the games and dances were over, refreshments of cake and ice-cream were served. Many of the mothers were present and had an enjoyable time. The frosh were also represented in the Scholarship Society. While there were only three in it this year, Maude Alexander, Robert Clarke, and Oma Bell Pixley, there are a number of others v ' ho have made such high grades that they were eligible for the coming year. As can be seen, this class has done well, and when next year comes they will truly be full-fledged sophomores. — Ruth Weiser, ' . 2. riiKC Tneiily-livo Al iiiniii EDNA OLSON Secretary, Alumni Association Edii.i C lson lias been secretary of the Alumni Assi)ciation for the last four years.

The OTudGnt DociL) up FRED M. 5MIDER MpesiaGnl IGHT per cent more students are enrolled the Colton Union High School than were here last year, announced Principal F. Stillwell Moore in the first Associated Student Body meeting held this year on September 18, 1928. This organization has promoted and encouraged its members to take part in student affairs. The executive board merely recommends plans to the A. S. B. where they are either adopted or voted down. The executive board this year consists of Fred Snider, Jr., president; Thclma Tuller, vice-president; Frances Cooley, secretary; Darleen Garrett, treasurer; Barbara Ewing, president of the Girls ' League; lone Lee, president of the Girls ' Athletic Association; Frank Yates, boys ' athletic manager; Pauline Shepard, editor of Pepper Bough; Herbert Andrews and Francis Starkey, executive board members; Herbert Bosch, student representative; John Adamson, yell leader; and Miss Olive E. Clark, adviser. These officers have the power to make plans regarding the general policy of the students, finance, and activities. The associated students gave financial aid to some of the organizations of the school who cared to enter any outside competition. It was partly in this way that the Pepper Bough stalf was able to go to this year ' s press conventions. The students voted for the affiliation of the Scholarship Society with the A. S. B. Because this honor society v.-as not allowed to collect dues, and did not have money for their conventions, they needed to be financed by the associated students. Arrangements for the affiliation of the G. A. A. with the A. S. B. has been considered, but has not yet been fully effected. The main thought of the A. S. B. is to back up the students. It gives this support to all events, including games, operetta, class and A. S. B. plays, debates, essay contests, and to all student activities. The selection of assemblies is one very important item for the executive board. This year the assemblies have been very worthwhile. There have not been many pay assemblies, but those that were given were very entertaining. During the year were Dr. Freeman ' s lecture on American Indians, Nick Harris and his singing team of Bob and Monte, the Dixie Jubilee Quartet, Mr. Gummer ' s talk on The Sacrifice Hit, Reverend Parson ' s talk on Morals, and D. P. Young ' s address on Safety First. The other assemblies that were held this year were educational. On November 9 an Armistice Day Program was held when memories of the World War were revived. Later a Lincoln ' s day program was given. Then on March 4, President Hoover ' s inaugural address was heard over the radio. The A. S. B. ' s interest was also shown when they called a special assembly for the interclass essay contest and the oratorical contest. ,w . ' . ► . y,M sr 2 . - ' Ji ■« !S? This year ihc A. S. B. voted in ,t;iVL- ihc winninii JcbdUis jwcdlcrs. The de- baters worked very hard this year, and won every judge ' s decision. Last year for the first time a school seal was adopted by the student body. A small gold pin, a copy of the seal, was presented to Clyde Cooley, last year ' s presi- dent. This year Fred Snider also received this president ' s pin. The financial returns of the games enabled the A. S. B. to purchase sweaters for the track team, for the debaters, and letters for the pee-wee football men. At the beginning of the year it was voted to give Johnnie Adamson, yell leader, a sweater with a yell-lcader s emblem. It was also decided that the class or organization using the make-up kit should either buy or leave money for some new supplies. This year the student body recommended that the glee clubs and orchestra buy sweaters for their departments. A bonfire rally was planned for the night before the Bonita game. However, this plan miscarried and the pile was fired by someone outside of the school before the school was ready to burn it. It can be easily said that with the excellent leadership of Miss Olive E. Clark, adviser, and Fred Snider, president, that the year 1928-1929 has been a very success- ful one.- Pauline Shepard ' 29. P;iKC TwoiHy-piuhl vr7ip| s L GaquG Barbara Ewing Presidoit Ethel Hughes. Vice President Lois Lloyd Secretary Mildred Rebman Treasurer EARNEST IN PURPOSE, LOYAL AND TRUE THOSE words easily express the key-note of the members of the Girls ' League. They are honest in their purpose, and their purpose is to be loyal and true to their school and their League. The first undcrtakmg of the League this year was the party given the mothers of both the boys and girls and the new girls attendmg school. This reception was held on October 26. A very interesting program was presented consisting of mu- sical selections by the orchestra, songs by the Girls ' Glee Club, dance by Louise Logan, The Meaning of the Girls ' League, by Lois Lloyd, a trombone solo by Maxine Olsen, and a solo by Grace Robbins. Pauline Shepard presented the tour officers with their pins, the adviser having received hers the year before. The next item of importance on the Girls ' League calendar was the fall con- vention held in Sweetwater, near San Diego. It is a custom for the president and the adviser to attend the convention with one elected delegate. Lois Lloyd was elected to go. The fall convention of next year will be held in Phoenix, Arisona. Phoenix is the only town outside of Southern California in the League. The girls of Colton are working hard to make money in order to send delegates to that con- vention. The spring convention for 1929 will be held at Claremont. The greatest money making feature of the year is always the bazaar. The girls contribute pieces of fancy work and therefore there is no expense. The League cleared approximately $40.00. The girls helping at the bazaar were Grace Garrett, Grace Robbins, Margaret Ambuehl, Alice Kathryn Irwin, Mary Kathryn King and Barbara Ewing. r.i L ' Twenty-nine ' MCJfi Many popularity contests have been held in school but none before such as was held this year. In an assembly of the girls, six were nominated to run in the popularity contest. Those six were Thclma Tuller, Martha Fryer, Ruth Barr, Virginia Corbit, Dorothy Abler and Alice Kathryn Irwin. Any one in the school could vote for these girls by pennies. The one having the most pennies was Alice Kathryn Irwin, and she was, therefore, Colton High ' s most popular girl. When any outside organization asks the Girls League for help or assistance they are always willing to do the best they can. In the Red Cross drive, they helped the Woman ' s Club by sending girls to solicit for new members. The girls sent were Grace Robbins, Thelma Tuller, Frances Cooley, and Barbara Ewing. At another time the Colton Woman ' s Club asked for usherettes at their play and the girls willingly responded again with Alice Arbaugh, Thelma Hvatt, Mary Kathryn King, Lois Lloyd, Kathryn McKay and Barbara Ewing. There is always a day set aside each year in school as girls ' day. On thi. ' i day the offices of Mr. Moore and Miss Clark are taken by two of the girls, and different girls teach the classes. May 2 was girls ' day this year. On girls ' day they also had a wonderful speaker, Mrs. McDaniels ' sister. Miss Doris Wells, who is a missionary to India. She told them many of her interesting experiences. The Girls ' League turned their last leaf on the year ' s calendar with the cere- monial for the officers. The old officers were praised and the new ones wished success. — Barbara Ewing, ' 29. I he Ocholapship OociGlLj ALTHOUGH the Colton High Scholarship Society was organized the latter part of last year, 1928-29 marks the first active work done by the Colton chapter. Meetings have been held every month with Edith Rose presiding. Grace Garrett is vice-president, Ina Lucy Savage secretary, and Ray Gough treasurer. The three advisers are J. A. Gillaspie, Mrs. Cynthia Reynolds, and Miss Olive Clark. The society had thirty members the first semester and thirty-three the second. By the end of the year, four of the members, Edith Rose, Naida Kenoyer, Fred Snider, and Margaret Stewart had earned gold pins by being eligible to the society six semesters. These were awarded officially at commencement. For the first time Colton has been represented at the meetings of the State Scholarship Federation. Five delegates went to the Polytechnic High School at Los Angeles on December 8, to the Eighth Annual Convention of the California Scholar- ship Federation, Student Branch. At the round table discussions many good plans for the society were discussed. On April 20, four delegates went to San Bernardino to a regional meeting of the California Federation. The Scholarship Society has had two socials this year. The first was a luncheon held November 8 in the dining room of the school. The second was a reception given in honor of the society by the Colton Woman ' s Club. As it is a Scholarship for Service Society, the club, as a service project, sold tickets for the Women ' s Club play, Polly with a Past. This was also done in appreciation for the interest and friendly aid of the club. — Margaret Stewart. ii,c hi-Y IN the last Hi-Y club meeting of the preceding year, Edmond Roberts was elected president of the club for ' 28- ' 29. Herbert Andrews was elected vice-president and Orville Adams, secretary-treasurer. The club started its season by enjoying a bean feed combined with a musical entertainment. A ladies night was held November 9 when the Hi-Y members escorted members of the fairer sex to Sturges Junior High to see the Junior College play, The Patsy. Invitations were received for three members of the club, with their adviser, to attend an Older Boys ' Conference at Whittier, California, November 30 and Decem- ber 1 and 2. Edmond Roberts, Lloyd Baker, and Frank Yates were chosen to attend and to report on the convention. January 22nd, the club went to Forest Home for an overnight stay. Snow was in abundance. The fellows had to get up at 6:.i0 o ' clock Friday morning to be back in time for school. An induction ceremony was held October 2 ' ). when five new members entered the club. A second induction ceremony was held March i, when six more new members were taken in. At Christmas time the Hi-Y had a booth in the hall and many contributions were made. During the basketball season the Hi-Y put on a pep assembly, demonstrating the spelling of words by the use of colored cards. A trip to the Mt. Wilson observatory was enjoyed on March 26. Members of the Hi-Y club this year are Herbert Andrews, John Adamson, Orville Adams, Lloyd Baker, Herbert Bosch, Ralph Bunje, Merlin Caldwell, Bob Flynn, Ray Gough, Bill Hansen. Dick Filanc, John Harrah, Valora Kivett, Edward McNair.

I ' liBC Tliii1 -i«(i Tlic Lett GPmen s CluL In February of this year, a meeting was held in the auditorium for the Varsity lettermen of the school. Plans for organizing a lettermen ' s club were talked over and Fred Snider, Frank Yates, Paul Tremaine and Ray Gough were appointed to secure constitutions of the lettermen ' s clubs of various schools, to be looked over by the club. Constitutions from seven school clubs were obtained. Out of these a form was drawn up. The first regular meeting of the Varsity C club was held on March 18, with Coach Mcintosh and Principal Moore present as honorary members and leaders of the club. Nominations were taken for the various offices. Frank Yates was elected president of the club with Hev;itt Smith as vice-president, and Tuffy Adams, secretarytreasurer. Having been organized so late in the year, not very much has been accomplished by the club, although several projects have been planned. The organization of a lettermen ' s club in the school has been accepted as a long s(3ught ' for accomplishment. Late in May the lettermen will enjoy a fishing trip to one of the favorite beaches. This fishing trip has become an annual affair and this year it will be in the hands of the lettermen ' s club. Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday will be spent on this excursion. A deep sea fishing boat with live bait, will be rented for Saturday. In the last regular meeting of the term the new officers will be elected for next year. Varsity lettermen who are Seniors this year are: Tony Lacorte, Ed. Roberts, Dick Filanc, Tuffy Adams, Frank Yates, Valora Kivett, Fred Snider, Paul Wat- son, Harry Templeton, Almon Worthley, Julian Faas, and Robert Fawcctt.

The Chemistry Club was organized a year ago to further the interest of its members in chemistry. To this end the program of the year included several stunt evenings which gave opportunity for individual experiments not possible in regular class time. Several local scientists were invited to lecture, and trips to nearby schools and industrial plants were encouraged. The members also participated in the American Chemical Society essay contest. The following students qualified to represent the club and school in the essay contest: Barbara Ewing, Marjorie Coomber, Jessie Gregor. Homer Mann, Edith Rose, and Ina Lucy Savage. Vance Howe earned the gratitude of the club members by making some attrac- tive wall charts and honor plaques for them. — Ina Lucy Savage. I ' :it;. ' ThirD-fdiir I he wFchest GSIFQ THE Orchestra has stood out preeminently m its work this year. It has been a pleasure and a satisfaction to those who are proud of their school to have a place in the audience and hear an expression on all sides of praise for their work. A great deal of credit accrues to Miss Martha R. Heminger for her efficient instruction. The individual members of the orchestra have an asset in this training in music that will be a source of pleasure to them at all times. The orchestra has appeared and played for various clubs, organizations, and many times for school activities, of which the most noteworthy are Rotary, Senior and Junior programs, Christmas, Armistice and Memorial Day programs and various other assemblies. The orchestra also played for commencement, which added a great deal to the attractiveness and interest of the evening. In addition to their orchestra work was the formation of a quartette composed of Dorothy Ahler, violin; Edward McNair, trombone; David Bailey, C melody saxo- phone; and Bill Hendrickson, trumpet. This quartette has been a very successful undertaking and has also played at the various clubs and organizations. The members of the orchestra are: Piano — Dorothy Tanner, Jaunita Taylor. Violins — Dorothy Ahler, Dorothy McCoy, George Hives, Everettc Newton, Antonio Rojas and Robert Workman. C Melody Saxophones — David Bailey, Clifford Shamblin, and Kenneth McCoy. E-flat Alto Saxophone — Oscar Lewis, Juan Rojas. Drums — Raymond Fletcher. Clarinet — Lester Malone. B-flat Tenor Saxophone — Charles Webb. Trumpets — Kenneth Rogers, Bill Hendrickson, and Raymond Cocking. Trombones — Edward McNair, Donald Cnlly, Maxine Olsen. Xylophone — Charles Ham. — Frances Cooley. i ' - « r W f- -- - ' -X J I he ( Igg Cylub Thr(!iit, ' h the combined ctiorts of both the boys and the girls glee clubs, this year has proved to be one of marked success. Many delightful programs have been given, under the instruction of Miss Martha Hcmingcr. At every important assembly, such as those held in honor of Thanksgiving, Armistice, Christmas, and Memorial day, the boys and girls have given musical numbers. The cantata, Christmas, by Paul Bliss was a four-part mixed chorus. Uniforms have been adopted by the hoys and girls for the first time. The biggest undertaking of the music department was the presentation of Peggy and the Pirate, an operetta by Geoff ry Morgan. This was given before a full house on March 21. The complete east was as follows: Moonlight Maidens Louise Logan, Marie Beers, Lois Lloyd, Alice Kathryii Irwin, Willa Mae Irwin.

Davis. There are many things to be taken into consideration in the presentation of a play. One of the most important of these is the lighting system. This feature is very necessary in order to bring out the facial expressions of the various characters. This part of the stage work is efficiently taken care of by Howard C. Belt;. The students of George Abler, wood- shop instructor, remodel the scenes for the plays in order to make them an artistic success. The stage craft class, under the super- vision of Mrs. Helen W. McDaniel, paints the scenes and decorates the settings. The willing workers of this class are Vance Howe, Robert Harrah, Daniel Schofield, Robert Davis, Colburn West, Mon- roe Hopper, Raymond Kclley, Raymond Castelbury, Foster Hall, Margaret Corzine, Carol Husser, Stella Gallehue, Ellen Saiiford, Dorothy Simonds, Maxine Shilkett, Janalce Watson and Juanita Gray. Through the unfailing cooperation of the mem- bers of this class two outstanding plays were successfully presented. A custom has been established in the Colton Union High School to have a Christmas program. The main event of this entertainment was the play, The Other Wise Man. It is an impressive Christmas play written by Henry Van Dyke. The characters are robed in Hebrew and Roman garb. The audience is taken back to the Bible time when these three wise men lived. This play is based on a Bible story concerning the coming of the three wise men at the birth of Christ and the fourth one who started but never arrived. The fourth wise man is a pathetic but impressive character and finds success in failure. The most important dramatic production of the year is a my.stcry play, The Rear Car. This three-act play was written by Edward E. Rose and was presented on the evening of May twenty-fourth in the Colton Union High School Auditorium. The play opens in the rear car of a train leaving California for the East. Ruth Carson is on her way to join her father, from whom she has been lost for fifteen years, and to receive a large fortune left by her mother. From the opening curtain until the end of the last act, screams, murder, humor and romance never let the audience ' s attention drift. A substitute cast has been chosen to help out in case of difficulty or misfortune. This cast consists of Jodie Lugo, Sheridan: Jack Fargo, Kirk Alden or Alden Murray: Robert Flynn, John Blake: Frank Yates, Titus; George Waldron, either conductor; Sam Allen, Luke Carson: Janalee Watson, Roxy; Ethel Hughes, Ruth; Doris Mann, Nora. To operate the properties, Raymond Kelly and Foster Hall have been chosen. This is one of the most important features of the whole play and adds much to the interest. — Frances Cooley.

The cast was composed of Thehna Tuller, Julian Faas, Ellis Stone, Pauline Shcpard, Harry Templeton, Mary Warren, Ethel Buckwell, and Almon Worthlcy. A short play, ' The Reckoning, was staged by Frank Yates and Edmond Roberts. Six boys dressed as ballet dancers completed the program. The dancers were Fred Snider, Leonard Sanfacon, Robert Anderson, Tony Lacorte, Jack Fargo, and Hewitt Smith. Ed Roberts and Vaiora Kivett gave several duets. Junior L vcninq February 21 was junior evening. A play, Grandma Pulls The Strings, was presented by Dorothy MeKay, Ralph Bunje, Lois Lloyd, Alice Kathryn Irwin, Willa Mae Irwm and Grace Garrett. A second play, A Mother ' s Influence, was staged by Ruth Barr, Grace Robbins, David Bailey, Jodie Lugo, Ray Gough, Sam Allen and Marie Beers. Ice Cream, a comic musical skit, was given by Jodie Lugo, Ralph Bunje, Paul Tremaine, Bill Tillman, Robert Flynn and Herbert Bosch. Grace Garrett gave several readings. Vapsitij UebafG KEEN interest has been shown in debating this year. The system of debating in the Citrus Belt League has been entirely changed. In the new plan the first affirmative speaker only is allowed a separate rebuttal speech, the others combining their constructive argument and refutation. Only two instead of three debates a year are scheduled. Colton High began the debating season with only one varsity man, Fred Snider, left from last year. This meant that there would be three comparatively new and untried debaters. Credit is due them for their brave and honorable showing, and to J. A. Gillaspie, debate coach. Tryouts were held to determme who would fill the remaining three places. Margaret Stewart, Grace Garrett and Johnnie Adamson, with Marian Rick as substitute, were selected. A triangular debate, with Chaffee and Pomona, was scheduled for January II. ' The question was ' Resolved, that war can be outlawed by peace pacts. The affirma- tive team, Margaret Stewart and Johnnie Adamson, remained at home to debate Chaffee, while the negative, Fred Snider and Grace Garrett, journeyed to Pomona. Both teams brought home the bacon by winning the judge ' s decision. For this debate the plan had been adopted of having only one judge. In the next debate, however, the league reverted to the old way, and again had three judges. The second league debate was held on March 22 with Redlands and Chaffee. Margaret Stewart and Marian Rick upheld the affirmative against Redlands at home, while Grace Garrett and Johnnie Adamson, of the negative, debated Chaffee ' s affirmative team there. Colton was again successful and won both debates by 3 to decisions. Having won all the debates, Colton was declared champion of the league. Colton Union High School has won four times and tied once with Chaffee during the eight years they have competed in the league.— Mildred Rebman. I he Lvcbating Oocietij THE Debating Society was organized in the school with the purpose of creating interest in pubhc speaking and debating and is open to all interested. Its presi- dent is Johnnie Adamson, vice-president Grace Garrett, secretary-treasurer Ina Lucy Savage. Interclass Debates. From February 26 to March 1 the eyes of the school were fastened on this rivalry between classes and the outcome was eagerly awaited. The question used was the same as that decided upon for Colton ' s second league debate, namely, Resolved, That modern advertising is more detrimental than beneficial to society. The results were as follows: First debate: junior affirmative, Ina Lucy Savage and Socorro Arellano; fresh- man negative, Maud Alexander and Eleanor Maguire; won by the freshman by a 3 to decision. Second debate: freshman affirmative, Lois Snyder and Oma Belle Pixley; senior negative, Ethel Hughes and Pauline Shepard; won by the freshman by a 2 to 1 decision. Third debate: sophomore affirmative, Evelyn Mae Corgill and Kathryn McKay; freshman negative, Jack Rairdon and Andy Sargent; won by the freshman by a 2 to 1 decision. Fourth debate: sophomore affirmative, Mary Louise Savage and Dorothy Tanner; junior negative, John Harrah and Marian Rick; won by the sophomores by a 2 to 1 decision. Fifth debate: senior affirmative, Edith Rose and Mildred Rebman; sophomore negative, Ruth Maguire and Patrick Gibbons; won by the sophomores by a 2 to 1 decision. Sixth deba te: senior affirmative, Margaret Stewart and Fred Snider; junior negative, Johnnie Adamson and Grace Garrett; won by the seniors by a 2 to 1 decision. This was the third annual series of interclass debates, and was very successful. The honor of the Clark Trophy was awarded to the freshmen. — Mildred Rebman.

This was the biggest undertaking of the senior class. The staff members were chosen at the end of the 1927-28 school year, in order that they might make their plans during the summer and be pre- pared to start the work early. Those chosen are as follows: Ellis Stone, editor-in-chief; Julian Faas, business manager; Pauline Shepard, associate editor; Estelle Ferguson, classes; Frank Yates, sports; lunc Lcc, girls sports; Edith Rose, literary; Valora Kivett, art; Frances Cooley, activities; Edmond Roberts, jokes; Rachel Andis, typist; Grace Garrett, juniors; Donald Matthews, sophomores; and Ruth Weiser, freshmen. Mrs. Helen I. McDaniel was art adviser, and Mrs. Glenn B. Merryfield was staff adviser.

Two students from each ot the four classes were chosen to memorize and deliver their manuscripts before the student body. The honor of the first place was i iven to Barbara Ewing. Grace Garrett and Lois Lloyd respectively received the honors of second and third place. The winners of the Colton Union High School Oratorical Contest final, were named in an assembly where the contestants gave their essays on the Constitution. George Waldron, who was declared first place winner, was presented with a gold medal from the Daily Courier by Frank Hosfelt, publisher. Pauline Shepard was judged second in the contest and was presented with a silver medal. Mildred Rebman was placed third and was given a bronze medal for her oratorical ability. Another essay contest that required deligent study and thought was won by Ellis Stone. Participating in the Amencan Chemical Society Contest of 1928, Ellis wrote on the sul ject of ' Chemistry in Agriculture, and won one of the six first places in California. He was presented a twenty dollar gold piece and a certificate. For the first time in the history of the school, five students entered the Decla- mation Contest. The contestants were Louise Logan, first place; Edith Rose, second: George Waldron, third: John Adamson and Irwin Logan. Louise Logan as winner of the local finals was entered in the Redlands University Declamation Contest. During the year 1927-28 Colton Union High School joined the California Scholarship Federation, Chapter No. 178. For this year Harry Lee Logan, Rhoda Moore, Fern Joslin, and Ava Klapp were bearers of the gold seal. For the year 1928-29 Edith Rose, Margaret Stewart, Naida Kenoyer, and Fred Snider were seal bearers. The honor of valedictorian has also been bestowed upon Edith Rose.

Ji I Gst I oobs Bu ELLIS STOhE AT her desk in the scienee building, the ehemistry instructor was poring over her class book m her usual sedate manner. Suddenly she was startled cut of her chair by a loud explosion and a blinding flash from the laboratory close by. It worked! came the voice from the lab. Whereupon she knew that Test Toobs, as our hero was dubbed by his classmates, was at work. She settled into her chair again with a sigh, and returned to her book. Had she troubled herself to peer over her spectacles into the room where the reaction had occurred, she might have observed a cloud of blue smoke floating gently to the ceiling, while Test Toobs stood by with his imbecilic grin, tangled red hair, and singed eyebrows, compliment- ing himself upon his success. By much searching m ancient reference books, he had discovered what he considered a beautiful formula for an explosive, and to his entire satisfaction, It worked. Test Toobs well deserved his nickname. He was what might be called a chemistry fiend, of the variety sometimes developed by the worthy instructor whose calm he had so rudely disturbed. His hoopie, an old 1917 model Ford, was often seen in the act of transporting cracked apparatus from the school to the ramshackle shed where Test Toobs conducted most of his scientific research. Great as was his passion for chemistry. Test Toobs had another. He was the leading favorite of the beautiful Lois O ' Dooley, who lived a short distance from the shed. The admiration which she expressed when permitted to view the various chemical exploits of her hero was soul-satisfying. The hoopie frequently added to its cargo of broken apparatus the fair object of his devotions. Now there were in this same school four youths who scoffed at Test Toobs and his science, but each greatly desired the affection which Lois lavished on him. Three of them were open in their animosity. These were known, respectively, as Thomas, Richard and Harry. The fourth, Joe, retained the outward appearance of friendship. It so happened that Test Toobs had a heavy date with this one and only woman for the coming Friday night. Unfortunately, in a moment of unbounded egotism, he divulged this fact to the envious Joe, a few days before the big night. That afternoon, after the regular snooze in English class, Test Toobs was on his way out, when he noticed a second-hand note on Tom ' s desk near the door. A beautiful skull and cross bones on the outside of it attracted his attention, and absent-mindedly reflecting upon the chemical composition of the bit of cellulose, he thrust It into his pocket, where reposed an assortment of corks and short lengths of rubber tubing. When he reached his shed, he rediscovered the note in his pocket. He started to peruse it leisurely, and was petrified with horror. Here is what he read: Tom — Test Toobs has got a heavy date with her for Friday p. m. Meet Harry and Dick and me and we will ketch him on his way and take him to the cave. When he don ' t show up she will shure be sore. We ' ll toss for the one to go and see her. Don ' t fergit. — Joe. Immediately a thousand thoughts began to dart through Test Toobs ' bewildered brain. Did he know a lormula to meet this situation? Well, he had not been thinking out explosions all these years to let this be a dud. The next day Test Toobs sought an interview with Joe. In a most casual manner he approached the subject of his big date. Then he announced that the date was changed to Saturday night. At noon he observed the conspirators whispering excitedly in a corner, but when he approached they seemed to be discussing the weather. So after making a few remarks about the properties of sodium silicate, he slouched off in the general direction of the store, well satisfied with his deductions. Had the early bird not been so busy with his search for a worm on Saturday morning, he might have observed Test Toobs start off, his hoopie filled with an assortment of electrical and chemical apparatus, and an old scarecrow. Had the bird followed, he might have seen the hoopie disappear in the jungles east of town, wherein was situated the cave, a popular rendezvous of the younger generation of the city, especially in summer time. But the bird had no time for trifling, so the trip remained for a time a dead secret. Saturday night arrived, and tour desperate individuals observed the hoopie sputtenng down the road toward a certain girl ' s abode. Their chance had come. So they piled unceremoniously into the hoopie and asked for a lift out to Joe ' s house, several blocks away. But I got a date. I can ' t go! protested Test Toobs. Aw, sure ya can. You got time, said Joe. Still objecting, the victim yielded, dumbly, and they were on their way. Once on the road, it was a simple matter to overpower the victim and proceed to the cave. The Ford was left near the mouth of the cave, and the protesting captive was taken inside, where he seated himself upon a log. He was in a towering rage, but it seemed that fear was about to overcome his anger. The reason for his fear was soon forthcoming. Let m-me g-g-go, I t-tell ya! D-doncha know t-t-that there ' s an escaped c-convict hidin ' out h-here somewhars? Ya must not read t-the Daily Flop. B-but he ' s got w-wepons — he ' s a r-real two-g-gun man, real dangeriss! Better Met me g-go! W-what ' s that? asked Joe. Aw, yer fulla — He was interrupted by a terrible shnek from the victim. Ee-ow-w! W-whut s that over there? Oo-ooh! and he pointed to a place a short distance from the Ford, between some trees. The villains peered horrified in that direction, and espied a human figure in the darkness. They seemed to freeze to the spot. Bang-bang came the sound of guns, and a scene of wild confusion followed in the cave, as the four scrambled for the open spaces. It worked! said Test Toobs, and with his broad grin in action, he climbed into the Ford and was off. Had the bird been in the cave at the time of the excite- ment, he might have seen Test Toobs press a button behind the log, but the bird was not there. Two hours later, four bedraggled figures straggled by the house of a certain girl. They were on their way home. They heard Test Toobs talking inside, for the door was open, so they stepped behind a convenient hush. What they heard made their cup of bitterness indeed full. See, Lois, it was this way. I used a couple dry cells and ran a wire under the log. It was out of sight all the way. Then I had an old Ford coil connected with it, and that made a nice spark to set it off. I guess the lowbrows oughta drag in some time now. They didn ' t spoil our fun for last night, did they? A sound similar to a small explosion followed, and as four figures slunk off into the darkness, they heard our hero remark contentedly, It worked! raw Kiriy a vJh, IrancGs! B,, MARY WARREh WHEN June with its warm days and blooming flowers comes rolling around once again, some young men ' s fancies turn to thoughts of love, others to graduation. Frank was one of these young men. Having been an inmate of Beverly High for the past four years, and by means known only to himself, accumulated the neces- sary credits, Frank was preparing for that day of reckoning — the day of graduation. Now graduation at Beverly was not an occasion of one night. It was a series of celebrations — a week. Here the young sheik and his girl, his partner of the week, merrily wended their way through the different festivities. Now Frank liked Mildred. What would be more natural than for him to choose her for senior week? He had carried her books when he and she were freshmen together. In his sophomore year he had escorted a muddy football through a line of tearing maniacs for her smile. He had glided with her through the intricasies of the junior prom. And yet — he didn ' t ask her for senior week. For here enters the eternal triangle. Soon after the beginning of the second semester came Frances. Just another blonde, but, oh my! Her schoolgirl complexion was not the result of a certain brand of soap, and large blue eyes were never designed for the peace and happiness of any youth. Frank fell — and didn ' t bounce. Frances smiled, and Mildred came to the conclusion that Frances was just another reason why you couldn ' t trust a blonde. Then came the tryouts for the senior play. Amidst the delighted snickers of their beloved classmates certain aspirants for fame painfully recited lines for the good of the cause and wondered if Douglas Fairbanks ever suffered like this for his art? Not so Frank. He rushed in where others feared to tread. To him a little thing like being a hero in a school play was in his own words duck soup, which trans- lated literally meant that he would enjoy giving Richard Barthelmess himself a few tips on acting. Frank was the hero, but here fate also took a part and giggled slyly to himself, for also in the cast were Mildred and Frances. Rehearsals were many and lessons few. What was a little thing like getting one ' s lessons compared with standing on the stage and announcing to an entranced and transfi.xed audience the she is mine even though come what may ? The dress rehearsal came off as well as possible. What mattered it if the lights refused to go on at the proper place and certain serious moments of great dramatic intensity were greeted with delighted grins from the rest of the cast? Then came the night, as nights have a habit of doing. Grease paint was abundant and lines were polished. Perhaps a few silent, but nevertheless fervent Pasc Kifly-niif hopes were concealed. The slajje was set. and the excited property manager fled distracted from one place to another. In other words a good time was being had hyall. Stay, wait a minute! Not all, for a brooding and downcast look was on Mildred ' s features, which slowly changed to determination. Mildred was doing some heavy thinking, and from appearances, getting results. Then came the climax. For every good play must have one. Usually someone gets hurt in them. This is also nccessiiry. The audience expects it. In this case it was to be Frank. A shining pistol in the hands of the misguided Frances was to be the means of his downfall. The stage was quiet. The audience was tense. You could have heard a pin drop, that is, if anyone had wanted to drop one. Frances stood facing her hero, he whom she supposed to be false. It was a great moment. She raised her hand and a shining pistol came into sight. Then the desperate woman fired! A click. An then a small gasp from the harrasscd girl. Someone had unloaded the weapon! Silent she stood for a second. The scene was really becoming dramatic. A snicker was heard from the backstage. This was a time where quick thought was needed and Frances supplied the thought. You have unloaded my gun, you brute! she cried, and snatching a pillow from the nearby sofa, she hurled it at the head of Frank who collapsed in a chair. Frances had saved the play! Later Mildred was seen guiltHy leaving the stage. In her handkerchief were the stolen blanks. Her revenge had failed. It was a wonderful evening. Two figures were seen to meet at the backstage door. Oh, Frances! said Frank. Oh Mountain, awful in your majesty, What are the secrets that you keep from me? Why do you look so stern and stand so high — Your summit almost reaching to the sky? Why won ' t you speak, oh Oracle so wise? Impart to me just how the future lies; I feign would know the path marked out for me. If it be either on the land or sea. Whether in storm or calm or battle fray. Tell me, oh Monarch King, where is the way? Nor here, nor there. Ah, truly, woe is me, How shall I go then if I cannot see? The road? But hark! You speak once more: My child, fear not. A Power is guiding you. To put you where a work is yours to do. Trust It. The Mountain ceased to speak and closed its eyes. And now I know just how the future lies. — Edith Rose. I he IViLjstGrL) ot Tne L)oq Bu ELEAMOR LARSEM DAVID, I can ' t stand this any longer. I know that screaming that we heard was scmeone in distress. Let ' s investigate. Get your wraps. Quick! Oh, I hear it again. Hurry David, hurry! Picture a tall slender girl of sixteen, with lovely deepset grey eyes, which at that moment were flashing excitedly about, a mass of chestnut hair curling about her lovely face and slim young shoulders, and you have a vision of Joan Steele as she hurried about the cozy living room of her home, which, since the mysterious death of her mother was left to herself and her brother, David. Joan, with her brother ' s aid, was managing the affairs. Since the tragic death of their mother, if it had not been for the consolation of David and Nancy, the old colored servant of Mrs. Steele, Joan would have given up in despair, though she was not lacking in pluck. Their home was situated on the edge of the everglades about ten miles from the city of Shampal, Florida. Although in a lonely spot, it was provided with every modern convenience. Joan and David rode in to school every day in the bug, as they had appropriately named their little car. Lately they had been hearing terrible screams coming from the swamp, and added to the death of their mother it was a very severe strain on both. Unable to stand it longer, the two decided to investigate. Ready, sis? questioned David as he entered the living room in a large iur coat. In a jiffy, shouted Joan as she hurried downstairs warmly bundled up in furs. Hurry Joan, we must locate that noise. So the two started out of the house, around through the back gate and over a dangerous path through the swampland. After a fruitless search of almost an hour, during which the cry was heard plainer once, they hurried back out of the cold, realizing that it would be useless to search further that night. By the time they got back in the living room, Joan was almost in tears. As she sat by the fireplace warming her chilled hands, her thoughts went back to the happy time when her mother. Jack, and she had moved to this house. How happy they had been then. How well she remembered that fateful night when, upon returning home from a concert at Shampal, they had found the limp form of her mother lying there, her long hair torn and disheveled, with Nancy leaning over her form moan ' ing and crying for help. At the thought of it all Joan shuddered and her eyes filled with the tears which she bravely tried to hold back. David, she said, tomorrow we must tell Mr. Stillman. I dislike doing it. He has been so kind to us and is working so faithfully to help us find out about mother that I hate to trouble him further. If he would only accept something for it. And, you know, David, I am sure he has some personal trouble of his own bothering him. I have noticed it so often. Yes, you are right, Joan, said David, we will stop in after school and tell him. It would he no use to inform the police. They would only place the respons- ibility on him anyway. The next d.Ty as Joan and David had planned they went to sec Mr. Stillman. They had searched thoroughly in the perilous ho district but not a clue was to be found. Weeks passed, and though the mystery still remained unsolved, Joan and David were both recovering from the strain which they had undergone during the past unhappy winter. One warm sunny morning, Joan, eyes dancing with pleasure, went skipping out into the back yard where David was repairing the bug, and said, David, Alice just phoned and said the violets arc blooming by the thousands on the other side of the bog, and we are going to gather some right away. David immediately showed displeasure. Now Joan, he said, you know I hate to have you go near the swamp. In the first place that trail is dangerous. At this there was great protest from Joan. I have crossed the bog hundreds of times. I am perfectly capable of caring for myself, pleaded Joan. You know I love violets! That It was no use to argue with Joan, David realized, as he admired her sitting perched on a door of the car in her well-fitting hiking outfit. You must see Mr. Stillman this afternoon. Nancy will fi. your dinner and I will be back by at least half-past two this afternoon. Now I may go, mayn ' t I? Well, all right Joan, but please be careful. Joan was off the car in a bound and with a final farewell started after her friend. The girls met as planned, and soon were off. The morning was beautiful and the scenery exquisite, especially in the swampland, as they wound in and out along the narrow shady trail. All along the wayside dainty ferns covered with pearls of dew, were growing. The extreme silence was broken only by the sweet carols of the brightly plumaged birds who seemed to be singing their loveliest welcome to the sun, which, despite the dense foliage of the trees and ferns crept through, casting weird shadows about. At last they came to the lovely meadows which Alice had discovered. Joan shouted with delight as she gazed at thousands of tiny yellow flowers. The girls picked until they were exhausted and decided to rest and then start for home as it was then about one o ' clock. They threw themselves down in the soft grass and flowers and both lay there resting when suddenly Alice exclaimed, Listen! I hear footsteps. Joan listened. Surely enough! The girls hurriedly gathered their flowers and ran over behind a clump of trees from which they could get a clear view. Soon they saw the most lovely little girl they had ever laid eyes on. She was carry- ing a large pail of water, and was clad in a dirty tattered pink apron, barefoot and with a tangled mass of golden curls and deep blue eyes, unhappy eyes for such a girl. Joan, forgetting, cried out, Oh Alice! Isn ' t she adorable? At this the child dropped the bucket and ran off as swiftly as a fawn through the meadows. Joan and Alice determined to follov,-, a task which they soon found difficult to accomplish. In spite of their efforts the child was soon lost to their sight, but Joan and Alice kept on and soon were rewarded, even though they tore their own clothes, getting through the brambles and bushes. Hidden among some tall thickly leaved trees was an old shack. Joan turned pale as she heard screams which she recognized as those she had heard before. Without a thought the girls dashed into the cabin and there a most horrible sight met their eyes. Crouched on the floor lay the little girl, screaming with pain, her little legs covered with wounds from brutal blows, dealt her by a big dark visaged man, who the girls afterward said, reminded them more of a huge, hairy ape. The girls stood by horrified and Joan unable to stand it longer whipped out her revolver, which, Pane Kifly-fnnr thanks to David, she always carried when in the swamp. She fired. The brute dropped to the floor with a curse. Alice grabbed the terrified child and they hurried as fast as they could out of the cabin, through the meadow, over the bog and at last, home. The girls hurried the frightened child to bed, and after having the cuts from the lash dressed the child went to sleep. It was a sleep of exhaustion. Joan ran downstairs, and after giving instructions to Nancy, whose kind old heart went out to the little girl immediately, she said to Alice, We must tell David and Mr. Stillman immediately, so we can get that horrible man. David hasn ' t come back from Mr. Stillman ' s yet. Just at that moment Joan heard the bug drive up. Running to the window she saw David and Mr. Stillman. David ran up the steps and called, Nancy, hasn ' t Joan come back yet? Great Scott! Oh Joan, so you are there? Wait David, wait! interrupted Joan. With this Joan related briefly the after- noon ' s experience. Immediately the two girls, David and Mr. Stillman started for the shack to bring back the man. When they arrived the door was open, and as Joan had feared, their captive had crawled off. Mr. Stillman, upon learning this, wasn ' t discouraged, and soon discovered a trail of blood leading out of the cabin and through the grass. Just as I thought, said Mr. Stillman, I ' ll bet our victim never bothers us again. My only hope of solving this mystery is this little girl. However, they followed the trail of blood until, at the edge of the bog, it was seen no more. They paused in silence. The two girls shuddered as they thought of the horrible death their victim had met. They were silent on the trail homeward. However, Mr. Stillman hurried rapidly along and for some reason was extremely anxious to see the little girl. Upon their arrival he rushed upstairs. Upon seeing each other, the little girl and the burly detective rushed into each other ' s arms. Uncle! she cried. Gloria, Gloria, at last you are safe! Well, you see Joan, explained Mr. Stillman, we thought after my little niece, Gloria Leyman, was kidnaped, we would keep the case quiet because we were afraid if the pohce were notified the kidnaper might harm Gloria. That ' s why you have seen me looking so worried lately. Evidently this maniac planned to keep Gloria and demand a heavy ransom, knowing her parents to be very wealthy. As for your mother, David, he said, turning to the boy, from what Gloria has told me she had discovered the cabin that day. This man, fearing to be discovered, crept to your home that night when you were away, and, well — he said, patting Joan on the shoulder, he accomplished his wicked end. Joan smiled bravely and said, David, isn ' t it lovely of Gloria ' s mother and father to want us to stay with them in their lovely home? I shall be so glad to get away from this horrible place. So will I, said David, but what will become of Nancy? At this point Gloria interrupted, Oh, you needn ' t worry about Nancy, I heard mama say that she should have a room next to yours in our home, Joan. Nancy seemed awfully pleased about it. Oh, it ' s all too good to be true. Even Nancy will be happy from now on, said Joan. ' ' IUjhj . , MM:: TI.e Arctic n error I . MM K I K I I I I IT was May sixth, nineteen hundred and twenty-nine, when John Wood, a young aviator of some distinction, took off from one of the government airports to begin a most perilous journey, of which he could not even guess the outcome. But John was strong and healthy and an excellent aviator. This he knew was some advantage to him in this journey to an unknown destination. He did not have the slightest idea where the place was that he was hunting for. The officials at Washington had written him and explained that he was to try to find what was supposed to be a tropical island off the coast of Greenland at about longitude 60 and latitude 70 degrees. Imagine a tropical island off the coast of Greenland! This certamly made him laugh. What brainle. s creature had hatched up that idea? John had a wonderful government plane, which he knew was in perfect con- dition, and he was supplied with the necessary equipment to last him for at least six days. He had been traveling for about four days. The weather was good, and the ship was running splendidly. He had stopped only once, off the Northern Coast of Canada, to refuel his plane and to see that she was in perfect condition. There he had rested for about twenty-eight hours, so as to refresh himself for the last lap, which he knew would take him to or very near his destination. After he had flown for about twelve hours, dusk began to iall and the air was becoming choppy and so cold that he could hardly keep his hands on the joy stick. The plane was flying quite low, and the pilot scanned the ground for a sign of an island. What he saw in the slowly gathering dusk made his body grow cold and his blood almost freeze. For about a hundred feet underneath his plane there seemed to be a smoke or steam rising from an island. For a moment he looked at the phenomenon, unable to believe his eyes. Then he shut off the motor and glided in the directio n of it. He was only about two hundred feet from the island when he suddenly spotted a tiny plateau surrounded by tropical trees. Oh! it he could only land there! What a perfect landing place it would be! He skillfully piloted his plane in the direction of the little plateau. But in spite of being an excellent aviator, he crashed into one of the jungle trees and the plane suffered a broken wing. He gave little thought that night to the broken wing, but went to sleep in the cockpit of his plane. Awakened by the sunshine and by the chattering of birds, he looked out over the island. Instead of the little shrubby trees he had seen from his aeroplane, he saw that they were immense tropical trees, and he noticed that some b of them bore fruit similar to the banana. It looked very appeti sing and he was very hungry and thirsty. As he climbed from his plane he stopped to e.xamine the wing which he found could be easily repaired if he could find the nght materials. He climbed the tree to secure some of the luscious fruit he had seen. He got a bunch and dropped it to the ground; then climbed higher and looked out over his broad domain which was entirely covered with tropical trees and vegetation as far as he could see, except in the distance where some great cliffs of a red substance gleamed out in the sunlight. He meant to explore the island thoroughly before he left. Just as he was about to descend from the tree, he heard a slight rustle and, quickly turning around, he saw a little monkey, or at least it closely resembled a monkey, going down the tree just as fast as it could. As it reached the ground, it gave one last look at him and bounded off into the undergrowth. What a queer creature, he chuckled. It had a long, slender body which was not covered with hair, but a blue-black skin. Its ears were like a police dog ' s, and its face was like a monkey ' s. The day was very warm and the air was sultry, and he noticed that small drops of moisture were dropping from the trees. He felt so warm that he discarded most of his clothing and then started out to explore the island, and to hunt for some wood with which he could repair his plane. He had not gone very far when he noticed that on the island grew some of the most beautiful tropical flowers he had ever seen. Orchids! How wonderful and magnificent they were, and how much larger than any he had ever seen. As he walked mile after mile he saw many beautiful tropical sights. But before he had gone through many miles of trees and tropical vegetation, he came upon a more wonderful and awe-aspiring sight. As he parted some jungle growth, he saw a sort of a meadow or marsh, from which great quantities of steam were rising. This must have been the sight, which appeared to him as smoke, that he had seen from his aeroplane. Fascinated, he was drawn to the edges. The steam curled, and every curl seemed to draw him nearer the edge. He stumbled on under the spell until he came very near the brink and looked over. There in the tall grass he saw the bones and skeletons of some prehistonc animals. Could there be any more on the island? They must have died many hundred years ago. It was growing dusk and he had many miles to return, so he left the marsh and started out through the trees and vegetation toward the plane. On the way he found some wood which he knew would be suitable for repairing his plane. At last he was almost to the plane and dusk was rapidly falling, when, looking behind him,- he saw a terrible sight, which almost completely left him without the power of motion. Finally, reaching a tree in safety, he looked at it, and was chilled to the marrow. It was about six feet in height, with long arms and very large hands, which could have crushed him at one blow. Its head was very large and the teeth protruded from the jaws, but the worst feature was the large, deeply sunk eyes, terrible and piercing. The orbs appeared to him to be composed of some phosphor- escent substance, shining out like globes of light. The beast stood at the base of the tree for almost half the night. All of a sudden he heard a scream that sounded like that of an animal. The beast at the base of the tree answered in the same voice and presently went lumbering away. About two o ' clock, or at least he judged it was about that time, he heard a number of the animals come lumbering along under the tree. One stopped and sniffed at the tree and let out a scream, and they all went galloping off into the undergrowth. How terrible they looked with their luminuous eyes shining out into the night. It was almost morning and he had been sleeping for about an hour when he awoke. The jungle was wrapped in a blanket of silence. He listened for a while to make sure no animals were lurknii; near and then, clniibinK down from his perch, lie went to repair his plane. The break was not bad and in less than an hour he had repaired the winj;. Then he started out to iji ' ther some tropical fruits (or his breakfast. He located a heavily-laden fruit tree about three hundred yards from his plane, and was prc- pann ; to climb it, when suddenly he heard a clump-clump behind him. and on lookini, ' around he saw one of those terrible animals coming toward him. He started running; in the direction of the plane. The iircia beast was not more than five or SIX yards from him. ileachinii the plane, John climbed in, but in his freniy he pushed in the lever which controlled the eni,Mne, and the plane would not rise. The beast was scarcely a foot from the plane. John j ripped the lever and threw it out, and the plane rose shakily off the plateau. But not a bit too soon, for the beast with one of its i;reat hands ripped the cloth which covered the wing. And as he passed an immense jungle tree, a branch of the tree caught in the rudder of his plane. He flew for many hours, until he reached civilization, and there he told his story. They would not believe him because the only thing he had for proof was the rip in the wing and the branch of a jungle tree. Perhaps the world will never know whether John Wood ever located the island or not, for no one has ever located it since. But I, for one, believe him and always shall. For this is the story, that he told me when he first reached civilization. A R. I tui)k a walk to the woods today Amidst the flowers and trees. The wind a song in the trees did play As I followed the whispering breeze. Far from the turmoil and the strife I roamed most free as a bird While I thought of the many trials of life A sweet clear voice I heard. It was the voice of a mocking bird Singing his merry lay. And as I listened to his word My troubles vanished away. O life is good if you make it so But cheerful you mu.st be And life is bad if you make it so Just try it once and see. If you keep a song in your heart each day Your life will happier be. So whistle or sing a merry lay And see what a difference there ' ll be. As I went roaming on my way My heart felt lighter than air. For the secret of happiness I found that day. Caught from a mocking bird ' s air. --Julc Friderich IVIan to I Ian B4 FORD ALLIMGHAM IF you have ever experienced a cold winter, when the mercury dropped to 25 degrees, you would have some idea of how cold it must be where the mercury drops to 50 and 60 degrees below zero. It was exactly 55 degrees below when Bill McKay, of the Royal Mounted Police, pitched camp for the night under the shelter of some pine trees in the cold North, a little to the east of Lake Athabasca. He had been trailing a desperado who was wanted, dead or alive, for the brutal murder of a woman who had lived in Win- nipeg. The murderer was a huge hulk of a fellow with muscles like steel and a quick hand for his gun. He was a man who knew no mercy, who had often manhandled men of a weaker physique, men who did not know of his tricks of wrestling and boxing; many men had been thrown on their backs with astounding force by the brute. Bill McKay, hovv ' cver, was, no weakling, being about six feet two inches tall, and weighing well over two hundred pounds, with broad shoulders and narrow hips and muscles hardened by years of hard toil in the wilderness. And now, as he cooked his supper over a small fire, he thought of the expedition he had been sent upon. He knew it was a stiif one, and, being almost at its climax, he knew he would have to figure out some means of waylaying his man, in order to truss him up and carry him back to civilisation on his dog train. McKay had reason to believe that his quarry was only about three hours travel ahead, so, with this thought, and a few others combined, he went to sleep with the proceedings of the morrow well fixed in his mind. The next morning he awoke with the dawn, and busied himself about the fires, whistling and humming to himself, as he made his coffee and fried his bacon. His meal was finally ready and he turned from the fire to get his tin plate, when he found himself face to face with a huge revolver, and a gruff voice which said, Stick ' em in the air, kid. Now, McKay was no coward, but he knew that the voice meant business, so up went his hands and he stood looking into the face of Jim Davis, or Bushy, as he was called, the murderer, whom McKay had been sent to capture. Many thoughts flashed through McKay ' s mind in the few second that he stood looking into his adversary ' s face, but these soon fled when Bushy ordered him to lie flat on his face in the snow with his arms stretched out, while he was relieved of his gun and tied with a piece of rawhide. This was by no means comfortable but McKay had a very pleasing thought in his mind, one which caused him to forget his pain, because when disarming him, Bushy had failed to remember that all Mountics wore .1 kmlc 111 their bells .md the t.ict that McKay had been lying on his face when he was disarmed, had hidden the knife from Bushy ' s eyes. Thus the keen blade lay hidden in his belt, a resource for escape when the time came. As soon as his hands were tied, he was ordered to rise and stand with his back to a tree, while Bushy gathered up the cooking utensils and the uneaten meal. After this was done, McKay was ordered to march into the forest, with Bushy walking behind. They trudged through the forest for about a mile, when they came upon a sleigh and a team of dogs. These, of course, belonged to Bushy, and were the ones he used in his getaway. After arranging the packs and examining the dog harness to sec if it was all right, Bushy with his captive set out through the woods. Their destination no one knew but Bushy. That night they pitched camp. All the while McKay was covered with a revolver, especially when his hands were loosened in order that he might eat, after which his hands and feet were securely tied again and he lay down on his bed ot pine boughs to sleep. But he was far from sleepy. He knew that his chance to use his knife, which had lain safely hidden ail day in his belt, had come, and he was going to make good use of it. As soon as he could hear the regular breathing of the murderer on the opposite side of the campfire and he thought he would be asleep, McKay looked down at his knife and wondered how he would get it out of his belt into his hands. As he looked at it with just the top proje cting from his belt, he noticed that there was a little ridge around the top of it. After some strenuous wriggling and trying to make no noise, he managed to get into such a position that he could get this ridge caught in a little crotch in one of the pine boughs of his bed, then he wriggled backwards to see if he could draw the knife out, but try as he might, it would not catch. So he tried a different crotch. This brought better results and he had drawn the blade halfway out, when Bushy, with a loud snore, rolled over. McKay lay quite still for a full five minutes before trying again. This time the knife came out. McKay then turned on his back, and taking hold of the knife, he managed to sever his bonds without cutting himself very severely, then it took but a moment to cut the rope which bound his ankles, and he was free to finish the mission. Bushy was still sound asleep but he had both revolvers in his belt, and it was impossible to get one without waking him into terrible liveliness. Suddenly McKay noticed that his captor was sleeping with both hands quite close together and this made him think of the handcuffs, which he carried in his pockets. Noiselessly he took these out and crept towards his would-be captor. As he passed the campfire, he caught sight of a piece of rawhide. He picked this up, thinking it might come handy. He crept up silently with the open manacles ready, and like a flash, he snapped them on the wrists of the killer, trying to grip the revolver at the same time. He did not get a good grip, however, before his opponent gave a heave, which sent him on his back. Recovering himself, he saw the outlaw looking with astonished dismay at his manacled hands. McKay sprang again and with a terrific effort he pulled out the gun and broke loose from the huge arms which tried to encircle and hold him. With a curt command and i menacing gun, it took but a moment to disarm and tie up his captive. He stood back and said, Well, old man, the tables were turned nicely on this occasion, and now we ' ll pack and start back on the home trail. I rell on fheip battle, as some roarinq stopm Leaps anwn nnd heaves the siccpinq violet sea. .eaps rootball USHERING in the 1928 football season, the Yellowjackets journeyed to River- side where they took a defeat of 2 to 0. In the last quarter Captain Valora Kivett showed his ability at ball packing by carrying the pigskin to the one- yard line where he was downed just as the whistle ended the game. However, in the second season ' s game with Redlands the Colton squad pushed over one touch- down and held the boys in blue to a goose-egg score. In the next game with Puente, the Colton squad took a 14-0 drubbing. The league opener with Chino took place on Jantzen field, and proved to be a very exciting struggle. After four minutes of play Captain Kivett, behind perfect interference, carried the ball over for the first touchdown. This encouraged the locals and a second touchdown was scored by Kivett. Next, with a combination of long runs by Andrews and Roberts, the ball was carried to the ten-yard line and by a line buck was carried over by Roberts. Immediately after the kickofF Andrews scored the fourth touchdown on a reverse play through the line. Chino opened up with a passing attack and succeeded in scoring on a long pass. The Colton boys tried their luck at this and a long pass from Andrews to Crowder scored the final touchdown for the locals, making the score 32-7. Our next week was a bye so a game with the J. C. braves was fought out on the J. C. field. Colton took a laceing, 18-6. The second league tilt, with Claremont, took place on the Pomona College field. During the first quarter Captain Kivett marched down the field twice for as many touchdowns. Bill Tillman made the third touchdown in the second quarter of the tilt. Roberts went in for Kivett and within a few minutes of play plunged through the line for the third touchdown of the second quarter. A pass from Roberts to Seinturier marked the last touchdown of the first half. During the third quarter Bosch received a pass and ran 22 yards for a touchdown. The second squad was put in dunng the last quarter and Colton failed to score. The third league game with Corona at the Corona field started out to be a tight struggle but in the last part of the first quarter Ray Gough, tackle, picked • up a fumble and crossed the goal line for the only score of the quarter. In the second quarter, Ed Roberts, Colton right half, scored the second touchdown on a trick play. Both teams played a hard fought game in the third quarter, neither side scoring. Andrews again made a long run carrying the ball to the 10-yard line. Tremaine packed the ball over. Johnny Seinturier, a freshman, put the ball across for the fifth touchdown. Seinturier intercepted a pass and ran to the three-yard line. Tremaine again romped over the goal line. During the last minutes of play Seinturier snagged another pass for a thirty-yard run. Roberts earned the ball over for the last touchdown. Armistice day the Yellowjackets trimmed River. idc Poly. High 19-0 in a return game on the Riverside field. The decisive battle of the season took place with Bonita on the local Junior College gridiron. Bonita completed two passes in the first quarter and then ran through Colton ' s left wing for the only touchdown of the game. In the third quarter Colton recovered the ball on a fumble and Tremaine carried it for 20 yards on an end run. Kivett was put back in the game in the last quarter and carried the ball over the goal, but an official ruled he had stepped out of bounds. Bonita punted into safe territory and the game ended 6-0 for Bonita. Undaunted by their league defeat, the Yellowjackets went to San Bernardino on Thanksgiving day, for a scrap with the Cardinals. Before a crowd of 2,000 people in the grandstand the two teams waged a bitter battle up and down the field. In the second quarter the Yellowjackets took the ball to within tour yards of the goal. In the last quarter the Cardinals suddenly rallied and succeeded in taking the ball to the one-foot line where they were held until the whistle ended the game, a tie 0-0. — Frank Yates. niahliahts of the o iqniiq eason To Captain Valora Kivett goes much of the honor gained by the team during the season. Captain Kivett made many of the long runs and hit the line like a shot, often making long gains by it. Valora was the fastest man on the team and when out in the open was a very hard man to stop. His fast and shifty running netted many scores for Colton and also proved his worthiness as a real football captaui. During the entire season he was the backbone of the squad and never ceased in his hard fight to help bring his team through victorious. On the right wing this year we had Herbert Speck Bosch, a junior and Captain-elect for next year ' s squad. His ability to break up end runs and to snag fast passes greatly strengthened the team while his speed on getting down under long punts, helped to slow up the running of opponents. Speck was judged one of the best all-around ends in the Tri County League. With most of the same squad again next year, Speck should captain a Tri-County Championship team. Playing right tackle this year we had one of the hardest fighting men that the school has ever turned out. Bob Flynn. His game has always been clean but hard. He was always in the mi. -ups and his size accounted for many a blocked play. Bob is a junior and from all expectations will be the mainstay of the Yellowjacket squad of next year. During the season Bob made more tackles than any other player in the league. For the past four years that Coach Donald H. Mcintosh has been with Colton Union High School, he has put into his work a spirit that has prevailed with all the teams and made them better fitted for championship running. These teams are ones of which we can be proud, and much of the credit must go to our Coach, who knows his stuff. Members of the team who are seniors are Dick Filanc, Tony Lacorte, Leonard Sanfacon, Tuffy Adams, Ed Roberts, Valora Kivett, George Williams, Frank Yates, Fred Snider, Paul Watson, Harry Templeton. and Almon Worthley. Frank Yates. M M-ift r- m: ' ' ■i l iss v rootball C OLTON ' S third (JivisioiWwas for- tunate this year when Kenneth Olsen, a graduate of ' 28, consent ' cd to take over the coaching of the team. Kenneth put lots of hard work into it ;uid with the complete co-operation of the team, soon had rounded into shape a hard fighting gnd machine. Practice games were few, but a game was played with the Victorville varsity that resulted in a victory of 6-0 for the Colton team. The Victorville team was a very light one, and was entered in the Desert League as a lightweight team. In _ the first half ot the game a lightweight team was sent in. This team completely outclassed the Victorville boys and succeeded in scoring a touchdown. In the last half of the game the pee-wee team went into the struggle and succeeded in holding their opponents to a goose-egg score. Eddie Weiser proved himself to be a fast and trusty runner, making one 70-yard gain and many other long runs. The Crimsonites journeyed to Chino, Thursday afternoon, October IS, where, in their opening league tilt, they proved their ability as a hard fighting team. The Colton backficld, led by Captain Eddie Weiser, started some fast shifty running that the Chino boys could not stop, while the line was full of fight and succeeded in opening up many nice holes. This combination of team work doomed the Chino boys and Colton walked ofi with a victory of 12-0. In the second league tilt, with Clarcmont, on Jantzen field, the pee-wees seemed to realize that their hopes of winning the league depended on this victory, so they fought hard and played clean, fast iootball during the whole game. Captain Eddie Weiser, at the fullback position, played a great defensive game and made many long runs to result in touchdowns. Colton took the game by a score of 32-0. Since Corona had no class C team this year, the game was forfeited to Colton This left only one more league game to decide the championship. A game was played on November 7 with the St. Bernardine Catholic School eleven. The Catholic School had a bunch of heavy players, and the locals lost by a 6-0 score. In the la.st part of the game Colton opened up with a passing attack that put the ball on the three-yard line just before the end of he game. For the last game of the season the class C aggregation traveled to Bonita de- termined to bring back the honors to C. U. H. S. and in a way, to make up for the heavyweight defeat. From the very first the boys played a fighting game and com- pletely outclassed the Bonita squad. Captain Eddie Weiser was again the star of the game, making two of the four touchdowns of the tilt. The line, although light in a few places, held like a brick wall .ind the Boiiit.i boys were forced to resort to passing and kicking. Many of the Colton linemen looked promising and several will probably make their berths on the heavyweight squad within the next two years. — Frank Yates. l ' :il!( ' Slxly-fuur a, aniDionsI P hip Lyiass L I P Gam For the second time in the history of C. U. H. S. Colton ' s pee-wee football team has carried the honors awarded by the Tri ' County League for a midget championship eleven. Pee-Wee football is a new addition to high school sports in the Tri-County League, and much interest seems to be taken in this third branch of football. In 1926 it was announced that pee-wee teams would compete in the league. Colton organization a pee-wee team but only one other school in the league put a class C team on the field. This was Corona. The game was an easy one for Colton. A pec-wee team was organized last year but it did not meet any competition in the league. Interest in this third division of football was high this year and every school in the league turned out a team with the exception of Corona. Colton took the league and from all expectations will do so again next year. Fellows who made up the 1 10-pound football team were: Victor Alexander, tackle Donald Deiss, tackle Pat Gibbons, end Donald Matthews, end Bill Hendrickson, center Clarence Howe ll, tackle Donald Crilly, end Burton Cline, tackle Bud Roach, end Clifford Shamblin, center Vernon Weir, guard Bob Hendrickson, guard Jack Dacre, tackle Clarence Bell, tackle George Hansen, fullback Irwin Logan, halfback Earl Hough, quarter Johnny Adamson, quarter Eddie Weiser, fullback Colburn West, halfback Dick Coe, quarter Teddy Schletzer, half — Frank Yates. Page Sixly-five Varsitu Dasketball Granted the use of the S. B. V. U. J. C. tjym. Coach Mcintosh soon had a fast floor working squad Hned up. The big difficulty of the season was the inability of the players to hit the hoop. For this reason Coach Mcintosh centered his effort on the defect, with the result that at the end of the season the team had improved enough to give the hardest opponents some very strong opposition. Practice games were held with Victorville, Redlands University Frosh, Barstow, Hemet, Banning, J. C. five, Redlands High and the Pomona College Frosh. In ail of these games the locals looked good especially on floor work, and they succeeded in winning more than half of these games. The first league game was held with Chino on the Chino sand lot. Colton failed sadly with their shooting ability and took a trimming of 26-4. The second league tilt took place with Claremont and again the locals took defeat. The Claremont five rolled up a large score before the Colton boys started scoring. The game ended H-11. The league tilt with Corona proved to be a very fast one. The Colton five played a hard, fast game but were defeated. The playing of Captain Hewitt Smith, Bill Tillman and Julian Faas was outstanding. The last league game with Bonita, proved to he the hardest struggle of the season. The game was a close one but in the last quarter Bonita raJlu-d hard to beat out the Colton quintet.— -Frank Yates. Lightweight Dasketball The lightweight squad under the coaching of Hohbs Adams, alumnus, started the work in a fast pre-season form. Their style was good, but offensive work seemed to be the weak spot. Victories were taken from Riverside, Banning, Barstow and Victorville, while defeats were taken from Banning, Jaysee Grays, Redlands sophs, and the San Bernardino sophs. The first league game took place at Chino on a very sandy court. The game was a hard fought one but the locals outclassed the Chino boys with their fast floor work. The result was a victory of 16 ' 10 for Colton. The second league tilt took place on the S. B. V. U. J. C. floor where the Colton squads had been practicing from the beginning of the season. This game was an easy one for the Colton lightweights but nevertheless a decidedly interesting one, when the score mounted to Jvl5 for Colton. Captain Adams, Yates and Waldron, playing the front row, seemed to find their shooting and passing ability unlimited. The league game with Corona was a very close one but in the last minute oi play a long shot put the Corona squad ahead by one point. Checking up the scoring record it was found that Colton had won the game by one point instead of losing it. The decisive game of the season was with Bonita. Both squads played a won- derful defensive game. The Bonita defense broke down continually, to allow points for Colton while the Colton squad permitted their opponents to shoot many long shots. Only once during the game did the Bearcats break through for a set-up shot. The game ended with the score in Bonita ' s favor. — Frank Yates. ' ' ' ,.Mu : rt ) L lass v Dasketb a I Hopes for a Pee-Wee Championship in basketball were raised when Everett Ad.iiiis atjrecd to coach the midgets. Everett soon had the hoys drilled into a nifty hail handlint; squad. Donald Crilly was elected captain early in the season. Much credit must be given the pee-wee squad for their handicap in practicing on a dirt court while all of their opponents had the benefit of a gymnasium. Practice games were played with Victorville, Barstow, Banning, Hemet and Sturges Junior High. Victorville, Barstow, Banning, and Hemet were defeated by the locals. The pee-wees journeyed to Chino to stage their first league tilt. The game was held on a sandy court and was a very slow one. The locals couldn ' t break through the Chino defense often enough to forge ahead and the game ended 10-9 for Chino. The league tilt with the Claremont five proved to be a hard fought battle and, although the Colton boys showed up well in their floor work, the abihty to hit the basket was lacking. Claremont won the game by an 8 to i score. In the next league game, with Corona, the pee-wees won by a large margin. Their basketball style was very good and they administered a defeat of 30-4 to the Circle City boys. Hough, Adamson and Captain Crilly played a good game. In the last league game of the season, with Bonita, a real dash of hard fighting was displayed. In the first half the Bonita squad gained a big lead and then held the locals under. In the last half the Coltonites gained back many points but not enough to change the tide of the game. Interest in the class C division of sports during the past three years has been sufficient to make this division a permanent part of the league ' s schedule. Boys of the school who are too small to compete with larger fellows in the class A division may enter into sports while still freshmen and sophomores, and by doing this will gain the necessary development and experience for class A sports. — Frank Yates. P. ' iRe Sixly-eiKlit 1939 Track s Gason FOR the fifth consecutive time the Colton track team brought victory to the school . At the eighth annual Tri-County League track and field meet, held on Jant::en Field, March 29, the Crimson and Gold cindermen defeated Chino, Bonita, Corona, and Claremont. At the beginning of the year Coach Donald H. Mcintosh, mentor of Colton ' s athletic teams, saw a hard job ahead of him. Five of his last year ' s lettermen were gone. Only one first place winner of last year ' s meet was left, Valora Kivett. An- other great loss was in Captain Arthur Foster, who by an attack of influenza and tonsilitis had been left in such a weakened condition that the chances of his making the looked-for showing in the sprints were very slim. As the season progressed, however, the prospects of a championship team lightened. Jack Waldron in the SSO-yard run and Herbert Bosch in the 440 ' yard dash were running very close to the league record. Robert Flynn and Orville Adams looked like third and fourth in the 100-yard dash. Adams seemed to have a showing in the discus and looked like a possible first in the high hurdles. Frank Yates had been making consistent showings in the pole vault with Robert Fawcett only a few inches behind. In the mile Earl Webster, Almon Worthley, and Wallace Payne were all running within a scoring time. Just before the meet Edward Pearson made a good showing by finishing close to Bosch in the 440. Paul Watson also looked like a place in the high hurdles and a bare possibility of placing in the high and broad jump. Less than a week before the meet Valora Kivett, who had been strongly de- pended on for several points, was taken sick with smallpox. At first this seemed a terrific blow at the opportunity for another track victory. However, Francis Stark- ey ' s return to form filled the gap made by Kivctt ' s absence. With these added points, from 10 to 15, Coach Mcintosh again had hopes of defeating the Tn-County rivals. On the day of the meet Colton ' s expectations were carried through. Bonita. C. U. H. S. ' s most feared opponent was decisively defeated by over 30 points. Not only did all the fellows come through and live up to the hopes but a few who had not been counted on placed. Perhaps the most notable of these was Captain Art Foster ' s placing third in the 220. Illness had left him in such a condi- M:- ' ' MJ : Tcip Row — J.

Only by a real fight was Foster able to plaee in the meet. He set a wonder- ful example for the rest of the fellows on the squad. Another surprise was given when Foster Hill, a sophomore, took third in the broad jump. Elmer Crunk also supplied a surprise by winning second in the high jump. A very disagreeable north wind durini; the track meet undoubtedly accounted for the loss of a new record for Colton High. The league record in the 880-yard run was held by Uribe of Bonita v -ith a time of 2 minutes 9 1 5 seconds. Jack Wal- dron had run this race about a week earlier in a little over 2 minutes 7 seconds. However on the day of the meet he ran the half mile in 2 minutes ten seconds. High point man of the meet was Francis Starkey, who won three first places, amounting to 15 points. — Fred Snider.

S. should be very proud of the pee wee aggregation that turned out this year to win the league track and field meet by a close score of 1 5 point. Most of last year ' s squad grew up and was elim- inated from the class C division, so new material had to be worked in. The boys practiced as faithfully as the class A division, and before the end of the season were in their best form. By checking up on the scoring sheet it was found that out of all the firsts taken, only two were copped by Colton men. Doble, of Colton, took first place in the 50-yard dash, and Cline, of Colton, took first in the shot put. Corona succeeded in taking two first places, while Bonita took si.x. Our second, third, and fourth place men were the fellows who won the meet. Colton took eight second places. Elder, of Bonita, was high point man for the pee wees. He succeeded in making fifteen points for Bonita. His three first places were in the bro.id jump, pole vault and low hurdles. Pee wee track, in the tri-county league, has only been in existence during the past three years. It serves as an added attraction for the smaller fellows of the school and also creates school spirit. The experience gained in pee wee track will make better class A teams in the future. The pee wee track championship was won the first year by Corona. The second year, Colton took a victory by a large margin, and this year succeeded again in nosing out their opponents. Next year ' s pee wee track squad will, from all ex- pectations, be one of the best that has been turned out. Second place winners for Colton were Doble. Hansen, Easton, Alexander, Malt;berger, West, Bailey, and Castleberry. Third place winners were Castleberry and Roach. Fourth place winners were Castleberry, Crilly, Burns, Hough, Hendrick- son, Shamblin, and West. Final scores were: Colton, 46 1 1 0 points; Bonita, 45 ) ' in points: Corona, 17 points; Chino, 1 point; Claremont, none. Daseball Baseball difficulty came this year when the nucleus of our championship team left the school. Only four lettermen returned to start the season. Of these four, Captain Paul Watson was out wtth the mumps until after the first league game. However there were plenty of inexperienced men who turned out to complete the team. For two weeks Coach Mcintosh was unable to be with the boys on account of sickness. Hobbs Adams took over the coaching work and rounded into shape a baseball team destined to meet the toughest opposition that the league has ever fur- nished. Coach was able to practice with the boys for two evenings before the league game with Chino took place. This game was played on our own field and was the first game of the season for the locals. Rojas, Wear and Maltzberger operated on the mound. Lack of experience kept the boys rattled and some long hits into the outfield scored eight runs for Chino while Colton finished the game with a single score. In a practice game with Redlands the Colton nine completely outclassed their op ' ponents. Many long hits were made. Colton stood at the best end of the score which was 12-4. Gordon Maltzberger, on the pitcher ' s mound, showed good form as a prospective twirler. A practice game with the Junior College nine showed some improvement for the locals. Twelve hits were made by each side although the J. C. boys took the game by a score of 18 to 8. On April 30 a return game was staged with Redlands High. It proved to be a close struggle but Colton took a victory of 8-3 Watson and Maltzberger worked on the mound. At the present time only four games have been played by the locals. By staging a rally the Colton nine can again be a championship squad. Remaining league games to be played are with Claremont, Corona, and Bonita. The G. A. A. During the year 1928, a most notable event occurred which was to benefit the Crimsonettes of C. U. H. S. The Colton Girls ' Athletic Association was organized with Coach Parkinson as their leader, Edith Rose, president and 84 members. Through this organization the girls are able to win sweaters and letters. Points are given for the different sports and activities and when a girl has earned 350 points she is awarded a Crimson and Gold block C made of chenille. By winning 1000 points she is given a sweater. Those who have received letters are: Neeta Yates, Janalee Watson, Martha Fryer, Ethel Hughes, Edith Rose, lone Lee, Mildred Castle, Ethel Olson, Thelma Tuiler, Christine La Corte, Francis Cole, Marjorie Coomber, Alma Hcatlic, Manan Miranda, Myrtle Parkinson and Helen Starkey. Only a few seniors have earned enough points for sweaters. These sweaters are the first that have been given since 26. Martha Fr ' er, Edith Rose, Ethel Hughes, lone Lee and Thelma Tuiler v. ' ere awarded sweaters at the annual G. A. A banquet. Three G. A. A. plaques now adorn the school ' s trophy case. One, presented by the Colton Women ' s Club, bears the name of the high-point girl each year. Last year Ethel Hughes and Mildred Castle tied for this honor and their names are engraved on the plaque. The Girls ' League gave another one for the high point class in track. The seniors of ' 29 will have their name printed on this one. This year the G. A. A. bought a trophy for its own organization for high-point class in basketball. The seniors also won in this event. The G. A. A. ofl[icers and cabinet for ' 29 were lone Lee, president; Dorothy Simonds, vice-president; Frances Cooley, secretary; Ethel Hughes, lone Lee, Eleanor Larsen, Catherine Hicks and Francis Cole, sport leaders. — lone Lee. I ;iKt ' . ' rv( iily-fnnr vr ipls Opopl P Interclass basketball, volleyball, baseball, track and play day gave the Crimson- ettes of C. U. H. S. a chance to show off. In all these events the seniors carried off the honors by defeating the junior, sophomore and freshman teams. These interclass games not only created enthusiasm among the girls but Coach Parky and her sport leaders were able to pick the All-Colton teams which re- presented Colton at the Girls Play Day which was held on May ' i at Bonita. The following All-Colton teams journeyed to Bonita — Baseball: Hicks, Fryer, Lee, Hughes, Yates, Rose, Watson, Templeton, Lacorte, McKinney, Coomber. Basketball: Fryer, Hughes, Hungerford, Lacorte, Martin, Parkinson, Rose, Starkey, Watson, Yates. Volleyball: Alexander, Cole, Gilbert, Hicks, McKcn:ic, Rose, Stanton. Track: Abler, Black, Castle, Cole, Coomber, Fryer, Hicks, Hughes, Gilbert, Jones, Kalm, Knopsnyder, Lee, Mullins, Rose, Frank, Tuller, Weiser, Winn, Yates. Tennis: Castle, Olson, Larsen, Cooley, TuUer, Jones. The girls were disappointed because they did not win the cup but some of the girls brought home ribbons. E. Jones, Cole, Castle, C. Hicks, Knopsnyder, Black, and Lee comprised the relay team which won second place. Hughes placed fourth in the basketball goal throw, throwing 27 goals in one minute. Lee placed fourth in the baseball throw, slinging the ball 148 feet. Ambuehl, Merryfield in doubles, and Buckwell and Barr in singles tennis, won their matches. ■— lone Lee. Dous I enn OLjS IS This year tennis proved to be the one branch of athletics ui which httlc interest was taken. League tennis was scheduled that the league games came just before the league track meet and during the first three weeks of the baseball season. The en- tire tennis team, with the exception of two members, were participants in track. After the track meet, baseball took the players away from tennis and there was no time for fractice for the remaining league games. A boys ' tournament was announced to determine the best players in the school. A round-robin tournament was held in the league. The Colton players were Frank Yates, first singles: Edmond Roberts, second singles; Irwin Logan and Frank Kicsecker, first doubles: Johnny Adamson and Earl Hough, second doubles. These players were coached by E. C. McKesson of the bookkeeping department. Girls ' T Gnnis By a process of elimination during a series of tennis tournaments, which were held in the girls gymnasium classes, teams were selected to represent Colton in the league tournaments. Eleanor Larsen played first singles, and Charlotte Jones second singles. Ethel Olson and Mildred Castle formed the first doubles team, Frances Cooley and Thelma Tuller were second doubles. In the first league tilt, Eleanor Larsen won her game at first singles. Olson and Castle also won first doubles. The games with Corona and Bonita were unfortunate for the Colton girls. With Chino Eleanor Larsen and Castle and Olson defeated their opponents. Those girls who made the league team could not represent Colton in the Girls ' Play Day at Bonita. Those who did play at the Play Day were Ethel Buckwell, first singles; Ruth Barr, second singles: Mary Warren and Marguente Fields, first doubles; Edna Merryfield and Margaret Ambuehl, second doubles.

With this admonition in mind, the class is requested to consider carefully the case of Tony Lacorte. He was fervently making love to a fair pupil of the class. My darling, will you marry me? She replied, quickly. Yes, Tony! A long deadening silence followed; finally it was broken. ' • - Why don ' t you say something, Tony? I think I say too much already. Over his keyes, the musing organist Beginning doubtfully and far away. Thinks of his love, and from his fingers Comes a heavenly meloda y. Tell me not in mournful numbers, Love is but an empty dream; That it comes but for an hour. Flitting away like a small sunbeam. I know better! My fair lady Doth surpass the fairest flower Of the meadow. She can spend more Than I ' ve got in just an hour. Loves no dream, for if it were, When I wake and count my cash I ' d be rich; but as it is I am most a poor paup-er. Love is not an empty dream. It is on the other hand, an empty pocket-book. Johnnie once inquired of Grace where she had been the last few days. She replied, In the hospital, getting censored. Upon further inquiry, he was told, I had several important parts cut out. Break, break, break On the cold gray stones, O sea! But the parts I lost at the hospital Will never grow back in me. Speaking of love reminds the staff of the possum car. Arthur Foster had taken a charming young lady for a ride over his favorite stretch of lonely road. Suddenly she murmured, This is a regular possum car, isn ' t it? Possum car? What do you mean by that? he asked. Because, sighed Gen, It goes dead in such convenient places. Page Si ' vcrily-soveii N. ),,MMM,l,sU SI, II W I ' l The class will nmv liirn to p.ii:c ! ' • , .md mitc i.irilully the ilkistr.ilioii thereon This IS not, €ts you may suspect, a jjroup of hiyh school students actint; tunny before the camera. It is, on the other hand, a group of students trying to act funny. Thoughtful pupils in the class who may wonder why their pictures d i not appear, are reminded that this page is for ' gumps only. The staff was officially surprised upon learning to what lengths some people will go to have their pictures taken. One freshman hoy was even known to comb his hair and put on a necktie. Also, note the picture in the lower right corner, of the three handsome, deep chested fellows. This is very typical of snap-shot day. Another striking example is the musician right above the latter picture. Some people will .ict like imbeciles; others will pretend to be what they arc not. Doubtless you have scrutinized the upper left corner of page 79. Here we have one D. McKee, snake hunter, in the act of snake hunting. The camera man who got this shot was blown to bits, just as the camera clicked. After the barrage was over, the snake opened his eyes, shook his rattlers, remarked That ' s that, and crawled off to a new adventure, the stor ' of which is graphicalK- told in the picture near the center of the page. I h.ive, said the snake, a lot of adventures, In my various haunts. Artillery don ' t bother me: Women is what I wants. I lo e to grasp them round the waist; To feel their gentle touch Upon my burning forehead — Indeed, I like it much. Oh the taste of beetles is sweet to me, But sweeter far is this — To hold some pretty girlies hand, Or thrill her with a kiss. Freshman pupils in the class who say that this poetry does not rhyme, are reminded that they have a lot to learn. Let us now discuss the upper righthand corner of the photograph. You will distinguish there a young gentleman and a young lady. Note, however, that they are not a young gentleman and a young lady. The picture was used by mistake. Whereupon, with perfect intonation, their voices rising and falling in beautiful cadences, the boys ' glee club will sing an old Scotch hymn, entitled Papa ' s Breeches Papa ' s breeches didn ' t fit. didn ' t fit, didn ' t lit. Papa ' s breeches didn ' t fit My fair Lady — O. The freshman pupils, it is hoped, will concede that the above is very good for a staff unused to poetical accomplishments. An observing senior has called the staff ' s attention to the fact that they are not papa ' s breeches at all. If you will turn to page S. and inspect the lower left corner, you may find where Stelly got them. PiiBe Scvenljr-elght Patje Seventy-nine I tliliM «. C— 1 llini) W III s Certain freshman pupils in the class objected to the staff because the seniors were allowed to have a kid day. Upon inquiry, however, the staff learned t he reason for the complaint, which was that the freshmen are too younjj to be kids. T ' was kid day at the high school; The .■icniors all came dressed In pretty little bonnets. Or, lookin sorta messed. They came, all dirt and ragged. To learn of chem. and math. Some wore their papa ' s trousers — Ail seemed to need a hath. Some curtailed their breeches; And some wore high top-hats. They uttered little screeches — • You ' d think that they were bats. Some got ruff with each other. Some acted coy and shy; While others thought they druther Spit 111 a teacher ' s eye. Let us now turn to a discussion of the illustration on page SI. Many of these pictures tend to remind the staff of a subject which it was discussing a few pages back, from which, however, it got side-tracked. Love is heaven, heaven is love—, so runs the popular ditty. However, by another inquiry the staff was disappointed to learn that this is not the case. How- ever, it has failed to reach an agreement as to just exactly what love is. While the jury is out, the girls chorus will chant in unison, with shrill crescendos and pathetic diminuendos, their favorite number, entitled My Dream Boy, O Where Are You? written by Miss Martha Hcminger. To gullible pupils in the class, the staff wishes to point out that the picture in the upper nght corner tells a lie. Miss Atherton once asked her class to write the names of their favorite hymns. All handed in their papers except Dorothy Abler. Come, Dorothy, said Miss Atherton, give me your paper. ' With downcast eyes and flaming cheeks. Dot handed in a paper beanng the name, Speck Bosch. Scales that are out of order sometimes lie also. Fat Flynn was eagerly watched by two small boys as he stepped on such a scale. He dropped in his penny, but the scale only registered seventy-five pounds. Good night. Bill, gasped one of the youngsters in amazement, he ' s hollow! Note, if you please, (otherwise don ' t), the snap in the lower left corner of page 81. By much sly sneaking around on silent tiptoes, the staff maneuvered to creep up and look over the shoulders of these girls, to discover, if possible, the reason for their intense interest. Much to its disgust, it found that the page showed a picture of Johnnie Sienturier. I ' ;iei ' KiKhly L.lil.us SI, II I ,,,,,,,,1., C II Beyond a doubt you have already observed the picture, on page 8J, of two fair damsels engulfed in some sort of makeshift atfair, and have perceived that this was an emergency. There arc two versions as to the reason for this situation. One, given by the girls, is that they inadvertently seated themselves in chairs, the seats of which were covered with glue. But the more likely story is that they were threatened with loss of merits for not being properly attired, and so took this means of avoidmg it. Note that this cunning device fails to conceal the parenthetical curves, which are still visible, despite the camouflage. In the rustic language of the farmer boy on the horse, these girls couldn ' t corner a pig. But the staff was inclined to forget this slight defect when it looked at the sweet, tender faces of the picture. Indeed, the face, ;ire heart-rending. O beautiful of face and form. Whose eyes of blue and brown Are pools of limpid loveliness — Like many more in town: We know now why they call you ■Heartbreakers of the school. You catch some interloper And make of him a fool. How sad! You are so pretty. As all the world can tell. Yet it ' s possible you may be As bowlegged as, well, Most anything. The stage manager was almost desperate. My dear, I wish you would wear a diflerent gown in the second act. The beautiful actress: But this is the latest style, and I paid two hundred dollars for it. The stage manager: That ma ' bo true, but when your husband says ' Woman, you are hiding something from mc, the audience can ' t figure out what he means. The mysterious disappearance of one R. Bunjay from our midst has caused much sorrow in the ranks of the feminine population of C. U. H. S. The staff was asked to investigate this, and sorrowfully publishes the picture of the roller on the opposite page as the result of the inquiry. Scrutinize the photo of Barbara Ewing, and note the very characteristic pose The identity of the youth is merely incidental. Observe also that her mouth is open; another characteristic of the girl. The fair breeze blew, the white foam flew. The furrow followed free. The annual staff was on its way To a place where all ' s happee. A place of quiet solitude, A place where all can walk In peaceful, blissful quietude — Where you can ' t hear Barbara talk. l ' a!;c EiRlil.v-lliicc I . - ' JM - ' Jnuiriulisls Slill Asliiiij Tin- picture in the lower left corner of p;ij, ' c S? is very exceptional, and it is with ;reat pnde that the staff presents it. Heroic measures were necessary to jet this picture in. It was only hy the mo.st sly maneuvenn).; that the staff was able to slip this in without the knowlcdjjc and subsequent bluc-pcncilini, ' of Mrs. Merry- field. The journalism students will, we are sure, understand what we mean. At the time of writing;, the journalism class suffered a severe disappointment. They knew that Mr. McDonald had gone to Oklahoma, and there seemed to be something mysterious about it. All were in hopes that Mr. McDonald had gonf after a wife, and were in a state of high excitement. The scandal was expected to break at any moment. But Mrs. Merryfield, by a little statement, brought ter- rible groans of disappointment from the class. It seemed that Mr. McDonald had only gone to see his oil well come in and make him rich. The class may now turn back to page 81, and note the triumphant youth just to the right of the center in the photo. This is reminiscent of the staffs first suc- cessful fishing trip, the results of which were three good-sized minnows and nine yellow-jacket stings. Speaking of yellow-jackets brings us back to C. U. H. S. drab. These hallowed precincts, long to memory dear, Smile with fresh welcome, as our feet draw near. We love the merry din within its walls; The trysts of lovers, meeting in its halls. The music room, the shop, the physics lab, And all our friends. School life is far from We wonder why it is that we must leave This place of happiness and cheer. Believe Us when we say ' tis sadly that we go. But it must be, as all too well we know. Our mem ' ries throng about us. We can see Now and then a glimpse of assemblee. Of football and debates and many things; Of operettas, plays, and club meetings. Especially we see the teachers stand. With grins malicious, papers in the hand. Preparing for a test. And many a time. Reluctantly, the tardy slip we ' d sign. Yes, we remember all this tribulation, And gladly herald coming of VACATION! We still are prone To think as did our friend, the ancient poet. Who once raved on, although you may not knowct, And what is so rare as a day in June Then, if ever, come perfect days. But best of all, may it come soon. Is June thirteenth. Hooray! Lditors L ominq I o Vacation, for many of us, will be a time of rest from the arduous task of neglecting our tasks. The staff especially feels what a wonderful change this will be. However, this does not mean that in order to cease neglecting our tasks we must begin to perform them. There is another alternative, though doubtless it has not occurred to you. This means, simply, that we will cease having tasks to perform. So after all, what ' s a vacation or two? Following is an account of another of the staff ' s illuminating inquiries, the occasion being shown on page 79. Staff: Irwin, what kind of a bird is that? Irwin Logan: Sirs, this, I believe, is a cowbird. Staff: And what, Mr. Logan, is a cowbird? Irwin: A cowbird is a bird that acts like a cow. Whereupon the staff very wisely closed its mouth and departed. The silver- voiced tenor, Valora Kivett, will now render a selection entitled, Take Away Your Cowbird; I want My Annual Staff Back. Waitress — Hawaii, gentlemen. You must be Hungary. First Man — Yes, Siam. And we can ' t Romania long, either. Venice lunch ready? Waitress — I ' ll Russia to a table. Will you Havana? F. M. — Nome. You can wait on us. Waitress — Food, Japan the menu yet? The Turkey is Nice. F. M. — Anything at all. But can ' t Jamaica little speed. Waitress — I don ' t think we can Fiji that fast, but Alaska. F. M. — Never mind asking any one. Just put a Cuba sugar in our Java. Waitress — Sweden it yourself. I ' m only here to Servia. F. M. — Denmark our bill and call the Bosphorus. He ' ll probably Kenya. I don ' t Bolivia know who I am. Waitress — No, and I don ' t Carribean. Youse guys sure Armenia. Boss — Samoa your wisecracks, is it? Don ' t Genoa customer is always right? What ' s got India? You think maybe this argueing Alps business? Customer — Canada racket! Spain in the neck. And now, in order to draw this section to a fitting close, the staff presents the following: FARE THEE WELL Fare thee well, my only love, I must leave. Remember, dove, If not on earth, we ' ll meet above. Fare thee well! Fare thee well! Forget not thou How I loved thee, dear. I vow I shall always love, as now. Fare thee well! Fare thee well! You are so sweet, Almost like a sugar beet. Soon .wme other girl I ' ll meet. Fare thee well! In A pprGcialion THE spirit ot Colton Hii h! To some ot our students it moans everything, and to some nothing. The former arc to be envied; the latter pitied. For the pleasure and profit one derives from his high school life can very well be measured in terms of his school spirit Those who have never known the thrill of giving without stint of their time and energy in some line of (school activitity, for the school without compensation, other than the realisation that they are bringing credit to the school- have lost a vital part of their high school life. And it is usually the school spirit of a fellow that marks him either as one who doesn ' t like school or one who enjoys every minute of it. i The spirit of Colton High has always been of the finest; it is this that makes all of her activities successful. Athletics, scholarship, debate, dramatics, jour- nalism — in all these and others, Colton is noted. It is this spirit also, that has made the 1929 Crimson and Gold a reality. To all those who have had a part in the making of this book, the editor wishes to express his sincere appreciation; To Mrs. Glenn B. Merrytield, our staff adviser, for her utmost cooperation and expert advice; To Mrs. Helen W. McDaniel ;uid her art students, whose work in mounting the photographs and making the drawings and timings has made the book a work of art; To A. C. McDonald and his typing students, whose assistance has been invalu- able; To the faculty members, for their ready cooperation at all times; To the journalism class, for its assistance in soliciting advertising and in writing some of the stories; To the Senior class, for its splendid backing; To the members of the Crimson and Gold staff, for the faithfulness they have shown in their work; To all the students of the school, for their contributions in the form of stories and other articles, and for their subscriptions; To our advertisers, who have made the book financially possible, and To C. C. Brinkman, our photographer; Jack Cannicott of the Commercial Arts and Engraving Co.; Deo Paul of the San Bernardino Sun Co., and to the Weber- McCrea Co., for their invaluable assistance in planning the book and in its produc- tion. The work of publishing the Crimson and Gold from year to year, though al- ways sponsored by the senior class, is an activity of the whole school, and must remain so. When such a work becomes a one-man or a one-teacher job, the book ceases to be truly representative of the school. — The Editor. I ' iiBe Eithly-slx Adams, Goodman Allen Bros. Market The T. V.

Dismount, sir, and advance to be recognized. The colonel dismounted and came over to the picket, who presented arms with a snap. Proceed, sir! he said. As he laboriously got back on his horse, the colonel asked: By the way, who posted you there? Oh, nobody, sir, replied the picket. I ' m just practicing. The stout lady got on the street car and put a parcel of sausages beside her. Dick Filanc in plus-fours got in at the next stop and sat down on the edge of the parcel. Turning to him she said: Excuse me, but do you play golf? The young man, somewhat taken aback, said he did. Well, would you mind getting off my links, then? asked the stout lady. Farmer (pridefully) — That there hen laid 21 eggs in 22 days. City Girl (disinterestedly) — Well, is there anything wonderful about that? Farmer (indignantly) — Is there? I ' d like to see you do half as much. Fred Snider — Doctor, I ' m going to die. Doc. — What makes you think so? Fred — My lifetime fountain pen broke.
