fi L.. - MJ yju STUDENT BODY i' Cn the great puppet stage of Excelsior Union High School are various marionettes. Some are endowed with the power to move their hands. and feet, others shake their heads and shoulders, some run and caper about merrily, all dependent upon the number of strings used to sway and influence them. There are two prominent figures in this company, driven by a greater number of the strings of responsibility, who have capably played the part of student body presidents during the past year. They are Ernest Farnum and Claude Everley. Both of the boys were experienced along this line. Claude Everley, who served the first semester, was reelected from last year. Executive ability was also shown by Ernest Farnum as president of the Senior class. Ernest con- ducted his assemblies in a polished and well-poised manner with the help of Vera Hoke, Vice President: Sara Grace Frampton, Secretaryg Robert Mullins, Chief Iusticeg Ed Douglas, Sergeant-at-Arms: Dorothy Pinching, Song Leader: and Rayman De Remer, Yell Leader. Qfficer for the second semester were: Vera I-loke, Vice President: Sara Grace Frampton, Secre- tary: Ed Douglas, Sergeant-at-Arms: Rozella Rouch, Treasurer, Phyllis Cole, Song Leader, and Rayman De Remer, Yell Leader, with Vera Hoke Acting President quarter four. As a whole, the Student Body has shown a keen interest and en- thusiasm during the past year and due credit should be extended to these prominent marionettes and their assistants.

EW Block Cut by Viola Holloway-Designed by Jeanne Foote The greate-st honor which can come to any student is that of hol-ding the coveted position of either valedictoritan or salutatorian of his class. These places are so very desirable because they represent to the conununity all that is finest and idealistic in the class. Scholarship is the highest aim in school. Those seniors making fifteen recom- mended grades during their school years are given the worthy name of Honor Students. From these .are chosen the valedictorian and salutatorian. But scholarship is not the only factor in these selections. The Service of the stude.n'ts to the .school is also of great importance. Then. too, ranking equally with the rest, are the characters of the students themselves-their loyalty, good sportsmanship, high ideals, and the examples that they leave set for others to follow throughout their high school career. Frances Windes, as valedictorian, and Katherine O'dell, as salutatorian, excell in all of these requirements. They represent the best in scholastic Work, talent in activities, ability of self-expression, and individuality in ideas, They are well liked and admired by the rest of the school, and are exceptionally capable of represent- ing to the interested public, the Class of '31, .
