X .Leaf 1 ' Class 'fl-listorg g XVith ll5 people bent upon reaching the same goal, our Freshman class came into existance. .Ns a live bunch of Freshmen we elected the following officers to guide us through the first chapter of our high school career: Robert Myers, pres- ident: Dixie Anthony, vice-president: Helen Halaam, secretary: Harrison Huck- aby, treasurer: and Clifford VVhitney. class representative. VVe chose as our motto Always Faithful. Miss Furness was selected as our class adviser. During our Freshman year we were well represented in all athletic events and in the Honor society. The popularity contest proved our class to have as one of its members the most popular boy in school, Vincent Dungan. The following September the class of '28 again met to select our executives for the year. We again chose Miss Furness as class adviser. XVe elected Rob- ert Alexander, president: lrene Brown, vice-president: Vance Venables, secretary- treasurer: and Madgel Wlilson, class representative. VVith our motto Always Faithful before us the year of '26 proved very successful. Our one great event of the year, the Sophomore-Senirir picnic at Terminus, finished the year. Ho! XVe find ourselves the jolly juniors, all ready for a good time as ''upper-elassmenf' XVe elected Vincent llungan, president: Oliver Nichols, vice-president: Vance Venables, secretary-treasurer: Robert Myers. business manager: liugenia Van Cleve, class representative: and Miss Furness, class adviser. In order to make the last chapters of our high school career outstand- ing we contributed 19 boys and girls to athletics and 16 members to the Scholar- ship society. Our outstanding ability was in dramatics which was displayed in 'Seventeenn and Once in a lilue Moon. All these events led up to the grand success of the main event of our Junior year-the junior-Senior banquet. lintering on the last chapter of our high school career as the largest Senior class in the history of our school. we elected Miss lfurness, class adviser: Vincent Dungan, president: lidwin Martin, vice-president: Madgel XVilson, secretary- treasurer: and Charles Smith, class representative. The social year started with a cord dance given in the gym. The next great event which had been looked forward to for four long years was Senior ditch day, which was enjoyed by all. Now the last chapter is gone and we feel that we have, by holding to our motto ,fXlwavs Faithful. reached the goal we were striving for-graduation.

But look! XVhat were those two dark shapes that stole silently to the high school lawn and crouched against the flagpole? lVas the school to be robbed? Gosh! let's hope not. Quickly a car came spinning' down Pine street and stopped with a squeak against the curb. Out slid a hunch of boyseno, wait. they weren't all boys, some were girls in knickers. More mystery! XVhat could it have been? Ah l, I know, it must have been Senior Ditch Day. So it was. for the Seniors were off on the truck before the roosters started crowing for daylight. VVhen the truck left the high school. it was loaded: when it reached Merryman, it was packed: and when it reached Lemon Cove, it was sardined and a few extra poor fish were riding on the cab. After enduring' cold feet and chilly ears and then riding along on the truck in the warm sun light for several hoursfhot stuff-the Seniors arrived at Giant Forest and proceeded to empty their lunch baskets and fill their bread baskets. Then they all got skis and toboggans and went up to the slides. Many thrilling spills were witnessed in the first few minutes but this didn't satisfy the Seniors. They wanted fun, so they built a mound of snow in the slide and set about to see who could land the hardest on the other side with the skis or toboggans. Sh! Don't tell any one, but this is why some of the Seniors re- cited while standing up the next day, At last, the joy-bubbling Seniors piled on the truck and started for home, where they arrived sometime after dark. Senior Dress Up Dag Can you picture a dignified Senior dressed up as a hobo? If you don't believe it, you should have been here on Senior Dress Up Day. lt was certainly a howling success this year. Even the Juniors. Sophomores, and Freshmen will have to admit it. Some of the Seniors galloped up on their dashing black steeds, others came in carriages. and still others preferred walking. It would be difficult to describe each Senior's dress in detail, or to even mention it: but cowboys, lramps, '49'ers, old-fashioned ladies, and hula hula girls were all well represented. This day ended too soon for everyone, but it left a little doubt in each person's mind as to whether or not beautiful ladies of long ago, who wore hoop-skirts and satins, were quite as undignified as some of the Seniors portrayed them. XN'ell. perhaps it fum' being done those days! ,Xa .4.,,,. ..,. - -. --,- 1-1-1-1 CW' X f We - l-J 1 ,jp-.-- ' Q ' gfr-M ' Junior Class In September the class of 29 entered the E. U. H. S. as jolly juniors and accepted their places as upper classmen. At their first meeting they selected as their officers for the year, john Blaylock, president, Max VVay, vice-president: Pearl Smith, secretary-treasurer, William Linnell, student council representative, .md Miss Evadne VVill as class adviser. They were well represented in football by Francis Madsen, John Blaylock, Emery Campbell, Merlin Swearingen, Melvin Swearingen, Dale VVilcox, Perry Acuff, Paul King, Gordon Shepherd, Louis Vasquez, and William Linnell. The Juniors can also boast that Louis Vasquez and Morris Dunkin fcaptainj were star players on the Tulare county championship C class basketball team. Gordon Shepherd was also another member from this class. Merlin and Melvin Swearingen played on the B class team while john Blaylock, Perry Acuff, and Ellsworth Heinhorn played on the A class team. Morris Dunkin, John Blaylock, Louis Vasquez, Ellsworth Beinhorn and Merlin Swearingen were the members of the class on the track team. Those of the class who faithfully represented the Juniors in the California Scholarship Federation were Cora Lee Terrill. Leah Dunkin, Leah Runciman, Vfinnie Jones, Edith VVilsey, and Helen Dungan. Ethel Gates, Morris Dunkin, and Raphael Pinedo still retain their places in the orchestra. On Kid Day the Juniors showed the school that although they are going to be Dignified Seniors next year, they can still remember their kid days. Another event of the year was the l'Snow Party. Everybody had a great time although it was necessary to walk almost all day. Those who were for- tunate to get to the park were so sore that they could hardly move next day. The Junior-Senior banquet was the climax of the year. The Juniors cast aside their childish ways and were just as dignified as the Seniors for once. They disregarded their class prejudices and endeavored to make it a success. Their efforts were justified and the banquet was a huge success. If il-...Q xv, V, , 'qi I 3 : . X Lzzifi' ' ' Sophomore Class VVhen we, the Sophomore class, came back to E. lf. H. S. this year to resume our studies, we were willingly moved up a few notches to make room for the Freshies. From our new height we can look down upon the Freshies and watch over them. lVe elected our class officers, who are Howard XYay, president: Lance Gin- ner, vice president: Neal Campbell, secretary-treasureri Olive Mixter, student council representative: Howard Link, yell leader: and Miss .-Xllen, class adviser. We also have standing committees to watch over the Sophomore affairs. The Finance committee is composed of Naomi Hurst, chairman: Arnold Steelman. Almond Miller, Charlie Fitch, Forrest Heckman, and the class officers. Many of our class represent us in athletics. In football we have Arnold Steelman Qlightweight captainl, Charlie Fitch, Galen Jordan, Jesse Stilliens, and Clair Firebaugh. ln basketball :Xrnold Steelman, Charlie Fitch. Howard XYay, XYilliam Harvey, Galen jordan, and Jesse Stilliens were the honored ones. XVe also have plenty of music in our class. lf you have ever heard the orchestra you will know that Howard XVay, Sol Fox, Charlie Fitch, and Howard Link play in it. XYe captured good parts in the operetta. The members on the Scholarship society this year or at least one semester, were Louise .-Xrnold. XYilliam Harvey, Naomi Hurst. Howard XYay, Mary Galan. Olive Mixter, and Tokiko Yukawa. Besides all these different merits we have a lot of fun. Our first party, a circus, was enjoyed by all who attended. The circus was something new and quite sensational. The second party was also a success. XVe, the Sophomores, ended our second year in high school with the crowning event of the season, the Sophomore-Senior picnic. Like all other Sophomore affairs. because we all worked hard, it was a grand success. XYe are ready to finish the remainder of our high school career with just as much glory as we have this year. l X n . ,, 1. : ff -....... freshman Class On the second Monday morning of September. E. U. H. S. opened. A bunch of wild-eyed, backward Freshies looking for teachers, rooms, friends, other teachers, other rooms, other friends and keeping out of the way of the Soph- omores as much as possible was very noticeable. The Freshman class was not slow, however, and it was not long before it felt very much at home. The officers installed were as follows: Stephen Fisher, president, Elwin Curry, vice-presidentg Viola Daly, secretary-treasurerg joel Brown, student council representative, Marvin Jordan, yell leaderg Mr. Howard M. Vtfoodside, class adviser. - In athletics the Freshmen were well represented. ln football there were Joel Brown, Lee Maloy, Vernon Sims, Sam Dunkin, Lewis Jewell, Ernest Patterson, and Howard Bass who won their letters. Those who were not stars always helped Bob Murphy yell. ln basketball Joel Brown, Lee Maloy, Floyd Terry, Earl XVhite, Theodore LaMunyon, and Ernest Patterson represented the class. ln interclass the Freshies were last but they put up a hard fight and accounted for themselves very well considering the practice the upper classes had had in previous years. An amusing sport this year between the Freshmen and Sophomores was the Sand Bag Rush. There were seven bags on the field, but it was not long be- fore the Freshies captured all of them. They felt rather vain-glorious but under the circumstances they may be forgiven. Miss Leedy was over-joyed at the large number of Freshmen in the Glee clubs and Orchestra. At the operetta several well known Freshman faces were seen on the stage and although they were a little frightened they conducted themselves very creditably. The orchestra made more noise than usual this year and you can guess why. It was because Berwyn Foster, Floyd Terry, Robert Cash, Virgil Haye, and Theodore LaMunyon were members. The Freshmen had one representative on the honor roll. The California Scholarship Federation, Exeter chapter, was very glad to have Jewell Eidson as Il member. This has been a good beginning for the Freshman class. ug... .Q an-.Q-1. gn ng- -. N. -1 A bvbu .... I W, in ,, -..-.

Any student or faculty member may join by paying the dues of two dollars a year. The student body card that if given in receipt of the dues en- titles one to attend all student body affairs and to vote on anything pertaining to the student body. This year, the student body put on an Ext: 'm in place of the 'AFuniest of last year. lt was composed of seven peppy vaudeville acts and six curtain raisers. Everyone was well pleased with it because it was one of the most varied programs ever put on in the auditorium. The school play was a success financially and was well received by the audience. The annual student body dance was again held this year and it was enjoyed by all who were present, This year the student body sponsored a sand bag rush between the Soph- oinores and Freshmen in order to let these two classes come to a settlement as to which had the strongest man-power. Owing to their superior number CPD, the Freshmen won the day. The student body also sponsors two debating teams that compete with the debating teams of other schools in the county. About the biggest thing that the student body sponsors is the publication of the . Xcta. This book reviews the organizations, tells of the activities of the school, and contains a special section for the graduating class that is about to leave the school. The Acta is sold to the students for less than the publication costs so that they may have something in the years to come that will awaken memories of the happy days spent in good old li. lf. H. S.

Every activity that is to be sponsored by the student body is first put into the hands of the student council, and if this organization finds it worth- while, it is then given over to the student body for consideration. ln this way the student body does not waste its time in considering unimportant things or things that are not constitutional. The student council meets during the first and second periods of every Tuesday to consider the business that is to be brought up at the next student body meeting. The council is composed of a faculty member, Mr. Sidney D. l-aw: vice-president of the student body, who acts as president of the council, Oliver Nichols: president of the student body, Vance Venables: secretary of the student body, Inez Brown: commissioner of entertainment, Iithel Cook: commissioner of advertising, Clarence Steele: athletic manager, John Blaylock: and the following representatives of each of the four classes: Charles Smith, Senior: XVillia1n l.in- nell, Junior: Olive Mixter, Sophomore: and joel Brown, Freshman. This year. the council has functioned very efficiently and given much good advice to the student body. In fact, it would be hard for the student body to work so smoothly without the aid of the council. ,-Xlthough this is Mr, l.aw's first year with the council, he has proved him- self very helpful and has always been ready to otfer a word of advice or help cut in any situation. -ug, Xu- E-1, .v,V.. 4.3.-.',3, 3.g15 ,-,. - i - V -' l , , ' X ':-,E-F29 -' f Girl fReserves The purpose of this organization is To find and give the best. This year the members have faithfully tried to promote the purpose of the organization and to live up to all that has been expected of them as members of the Girl Reserves. Miss Partridge was chosen Girl Reserve leader. and the cabinet members are: Inez Brown, presidentg VVinnifred Sims, vice-president, Flora jones, secre- aryg and Doris Enlow, treasurer. The committee chairmen are: Mary Fisher, socialg Doris Enlow, finance: Georgia VX7ood. program: lilenore Archer, service: N'N'innifred Sims, membershipg and Edith XYilsey was chairman of the committee which took charge of all things pertaining to the G. R. rings. The new system of wearing the rings, which is uniform throughout the county, was adopted by the girls this year. l'rior to this year. the girls have earned their rings by living up to the Girl Reserve code to the best of their ability. Some of the outstanding social events of the year were the Hi-.links party. the Stagette, the Halloween party, the gym party and the out-of-doors affairs. The Hi-Jinks is an event to which the girls look forward from year to year. llhe Halloween party, the first G. R. party of the year, was an enjoyable affair. At the Stagette, just introduced this year. the girls were gentlemen for the evening. The gym party was an original one, because the girls dressed in their gym attire and behaved as they would in a gym class. Edna Dahlem acted as a teacher. The Mother and Daughter banquet was given in May. The Girl Reserves have entered into the spirit of the club this year and, be- cause of their fine spirit of cooperation, they have made a success of all their undertakings. 3-1: ,. ng-rs. C--..

The officers elected were: Otis Nichols, president: Joel Hedgpeth. vice- presidentg and Edwin Martin, secretary-treasurer. This club of about forty members was represented at the Northern Boys, Conference at Berkeley by over fifteen members. Early in the year, Exeter entertained delegates from schools in the county. At this meeting, after an inter- esting talk by Mr. A, Robbins. a candle-lighting service, was held, in which the president of every club was represented. This year the club raised its quota for the XYorld Brotherhood fund and thus helped to obtain the large fund offered by john D. Rockefeller for the Y. Bl. C. A. of America. ln order to interest younger boys an open night was held in February. which gave the visiting boys an idea of what the Hi-Y is accomplishing. i At several Student Body assemblies. usually before football or basketball games. the Hi-Y put on pep rallies to get the students peppy for the games. After attending one of these rallies, one, although he were already enthusiastic, could not help becoming more so. Two of the biggest event of the year for the Hi-Y were the lllother and Son banquet. and the Father and Son banquet, .Xt both of these affairs, excel- lent speakers were secured and everyone went away with the feeling that he had gained something worth while. During the year, many interesting as well as beneficial speakers talked to the boys about the worth while things in life, and drew their attention towm-115 the ideals of the Y. Bl. C. A. 5? --...

The club has been exceedingly fortunate in having well-balanced parts. ln the beginning, they elected officers for the year, Oliver Nichols was chosen president, and Maurice Tyler, vice-president. Every six weeks a janitor is elected who distributes and collects the books. Miss Erma Leedy, head of the music department, is in charge of the club: and it was under her splendid guidance and noteworthy patience, for patience was needed, that the club became much in demand and was invited to sing at many community programs. In March, the boys cooperated with the girls in producing an excellent operetta, The Belle of Barcelonaf' This year the cast and chorus were chosen from the whole school, while in previous years they have been taken from just the Glee clubs. the public speaking classes, and the gym classes. According to the boys, the most pleasant forty-five minutes of the day was spent in Glee club. Tn fact, few will ever forget the comradrship they enjoyed during good old fourth period. P The members of this group are: Lacy Arnold, john Blaylock, joel Brown, Ralph Cates, Neal Clark, Robert Colburn, Stephen Fisher, Elmo Hirni, George Griswold, Howard Link, Francis Madsen, Lawrence McGee, Oliver Nichols, Otis Nichols, Roy Riggs, Weldon Schmidt, Melvin Swearingen, Maurice Tyler, Ralph- Vllard, and Max VVay.

Nearly all of the voices are new this year, as few of the old members are back. lt is larger than last year and what it has gained in quantity, it has equally gained in quality. Miss Leedy is the capable leader of this group, and the officers are Mary Fisher, president, .Xda Yoast, secretary-treasurer. The librarian is elected every six weeks. The clubs and organizations of the town before whom the girls have sung appreciate greatly the programs they gave. ln March, they were very successful in giving The Belle of liarcelonaf' the school operetta, with the Boys' Glee club and other students of the school. The proceeds from the operetta were spent on a spotlight for the auditorium. As a culmination of the years' work, the girls, with the lioys' Cilee club, gave a very enjoyable recital in the high school auditorium. The members of this club are: Minnie Cook, Mary Fisher, Julia Hurwitz, Rachel Jane Harper, Sarah Emily Hedgpeth, Naomi Hurst, Anna Marjorie List. Pauline Miles, Gwendolyn Owen, Dolly l.ee Phillips, liuphemie Sellars, Zahealia VValker, Florence XYarnes, Lois XYineman, Ada Yoast, and Helen Balaam. Eff 'rv-.X V vs... W i -. ,.,. , van-1. jf. Q. Club The purpose of this club is to form a connecting link between the home and the school. and to promote an interest in the study of the home from the stand- point of health, art. economics. use of time, conduct and manners. ln the fall of the year, the club gave a very successful tea for the mothers of all the girls of the home economics department, with the idea of acquainting them with the work of the department, which is best carried on with home cooperation. The club gave a very enjoyable luncheon for the Student Body to raise money for the Welfare of the club. In March, it had its annual birthday party, at which the girls planned and cooked their own dinner. The program for the year included such topics as the selection of household lmen, furnishing the small home, the Christmas dinner, the efficient kitchen. an afternoon tea, selecting household equipment, budgeting, and removing stains. .Under the leadership of Miss l-lamilton, the club is taking a big step in In'inffin0' the mothers into closer association with its work. 6 b The officers for the year are: President .,,,,,,,...,.,,,,,.....,,,, ,.,...

Some of its members have turned their surplus energy toward helping other students gain entrance to the society. The first Tuesday of every month the members have a luncheon and discuss the affairs of the society. The faculty adviser is Miss Lorentzen, and the officers for the first semes- ter were ,lulia Hurwiti, president: Cora Lee Terrill, vice-president, Leah Runci- man, secretary-treasurer. For the second semester. Cora Lee Terrill was pres- ident, and Olive Mixter, secretary-treasurer. The membership of the society represents the four classes in the high school. :Xctive members for the first semester were Dixie Anthony, lilenore Archer, Louise i-Nrnold, Thomas Campbell. Helen Dungan, Leah Dunken, Mary Fisher, Sadie Greenwood, Naomi Hurst. Beatrice Johnson, Ida Mae Johnston, XYinnie jones, Arlene Kirkman, Olive Mixter, Anna Murata, Mildred Thornbury, Vance Venables, Howard XYay, Melba XVest, Georgia VVood, and Edith XYilsey.

Cora Lee Terrill, Vance Venables, Howard VVay, Tokiko Yukawa. In the early part of April, the Scholarship society gave a skit before the student body for the purpose of raising' money to send members to the California Scholarship Federation convention. lYith the money from the skit and a small sum from the student body, the society was able to send Thomas, Campbell and Vance Venables to Sacramento to represent Iixeter Chapter 99 of the California Scholarship Federation. The Seniors who will receive pins for being in the Scholarship society for six semesters or more are Thomas Campbell and Ida Mae Johnston. l sv t t ata J at Latin Club The Latin club is a study organization. lts purpose is to promote interest in things pertaining to Roman life. There are many new members this year. who are taking active parts in the club. Many Seniors and Juniors, although they have already completed the two year course in Latin, still find time to be active members. The club usually meets in the Latin room every third Monday evening. However, it sometimes meets at the homes of some of its members. These meet- ings are very interesting as well as beneficial. .Xfter the business is transacted, the meeting is turned over to the program chairman, and a program of stories, speeches, and songs pertaining to Roman life is enjoyed. Sometimes outside talent is secured which proves itself exceptionally worthwhile. The members attended Ben Hur, an excellent picture which deals with things the club is studying. The manners, costumes and dress of the people por- trayed, helped greatly in planning for the Roman banquet, an animal and out- standing affair. lt is hardly necessary to mention the work of Miss lXllen, for the whole student body knows what an excellent leader she has been.

The question, Resolved, That the Prison System of the United States Should be Revised so as to be Largely Reformatory Rather Than l'unitive, was very interesting and our debaters were able to find much material for both the negative and affirmative sides, because the above is a question which is stirring' up much interest in the country today. The debates were held in lixeter and Strathmore. For the first debate, XVoodlake sent her negative to lixeter and our negative went to Strathmore. For the second debate, Orosi sent her affirmative to lixeter and our affirmative went to Strathmore. The members of the team had never had experience in debating before, but they showed their ability when they were able to knock every point that their opponents wished to stress. The debaters were lnez lirown and Neal Clark on the affirmative, and johnny Blaylock and Oliver Nichols on the negative. Elenore .Xrclier acted as alternate. ,.V.. - 1 M--.. iv AHIA I in ' ,Y A .1 C'...,.. Q' 'i - '-' '1 'Q' ' V 'J-hgh School Orchestra The High School orchestra, composed of musically inclined members of the student body, is larger this year than it has been in previous years. The school this year purchased a string bass, a cello, and a set of drums. The purpose of the organization is to appear at school and community functions when orchestral music is desired. lt has played at such affairs as the EXeum,', the school play, Chamber of Commerce banquet, and the operetta. The members of this organization are constantly striving for individual improvement as well as better ensemble playing. Because of the capable direction of Miss Leedy, the orchestra has shown much improvement throughout the year. The musicians are : Violins: Howard VVay, Lois VVineman. Berwyn Foster. lithel Cates, Law- rence McGee, Sol Fox, Raphael Pinedo, Kenneth Baird. Clarinets: Thomas Campbell, Giroux Sellars. Horn: Virgil Haye. Trombone: Charles Fitch. Trumpets: Morris Dunkin, Lacy Arnold, Theodore T,2'I.iXT.1llyOF1. Saxophones: Maurice Tyler, Clarence Steele. Tubas: Robert Cash, Floyd Terry. Drums: Howard Link. Piano: Vincent Dungan. .4 X W 5- ,, ,,,,.,-1 Junior Double Six Last year, the class of '29 tried a new scheme of committee working that functioned well and aided the class in carrying on its business. This year the Double Six plan was brought into use again and has operated successfully. This shows that the juniors deserve to be praised for their class cooperation, for no other class in school has such an organization. The Double Six acts upon Junior class affairs in much the same way that the student council handles the work of the student body. The Double Six is composed of the six officers and the six chairmen of the six different committees of the class. It meets at regular intervals to discuss the affairs of the class and to decide on what measures to bring before the class. The committee membership is as follows: Citizenship: Max NN'ay, Helen Dungan, limery Campbell. Finance: .Iewell XYall. Elizabeth Longley. Naomi Stone, Louis Vasquez. Social: Nourhalma Springer, Merlin Swearingen, lnez Brown, Pearl Smith. Scholarship: Leah Runciman. Cora l,ee Terrill, Ruth XVhepley. john Blaylock. Athletics: Morris Dunkin, john Anderson, .Xlberta XYabbel. lidith XVilsey, lVilliam Linnell. Publicity: Francis Madsen. Gwendolyn Owen, Pauline Miles, Melvin Swearingen. Program: Beatrice johnson. Helen jones, Alta Coffelt, Ellsworth lieinhorn. Surlister Martin. Che 'Block 'E Societg This term the Block E enjoyed a splendid year, both financially and socially. The purpose of the Block E in the school is to promote fellowship and clean sports. It offers a chance for the fellows who play on the teams together to mingle socially and work as an organization. The membership in the society is restricted to A class lettermen of any year, and Sophomore, Junior and Senior Bw class lettermen. This method of- fers all the boys, who have letters, a chance to become members at some time of their high school career. The most important annual function of the year is the athletic carnival. This year it was a great success. The boxing and tumbling were well accepted by the enthusiastic audience, and the battle royal was a grand finale to the evening's entertainment. Five boys nearly the same size were in the ring and the result showed the survival of the fittest. The success of the Block li is largely due to the adviser, Mr. Howard VVoodside. The officers of the cluh this year were: Francis Madsen. presidentg Wfilliam Linnell, secretary-treasurer: and John Hlaylofk, athletic representative to the student council. - .QNI '- -l I QUIET X When business sleepsflnd dolly cares Gre gone, lln dance or socldl Qcihering we cheer Uwe evening on. fi. nv ci iii fp , f f V ii' il ,V SENIOR PARTY CGingham and Cordj The students of the lower classes wondered why so many Senior boys were floating around school with dirty cords, not that some of them don't always wear dirty cords, but these were particularly dirty. Finally the mystery leaked out. The Seniors were to wear their dirtiest cords and the girls their gingham dresses, at the party, and there was to be a prize for the boy with the dirtiest cords. Joel Hedgpeth carried off the necktie, and believe me, that boy deserved it-no foolin'. Any way the Seniors had a hilarious time, and the rest of the students, and especially the faculty, were very much relieved when the Senior boys ap- peared in clean cords the following Monday. JUNIOR LEAP YEAR PARTY Those poor junior boys didn't realize how popular they could be until the girls decided to have a leap year party. CI wonder why they did?j Anyway, the girls didn't stop at just inviting the boys, but called for them in their twin six Fordsg took them to chow mein at the Tea Garden in Visalia afterwardsg and showed that they knew the art of sheiking as well as the boys did. For this reason, the boys all wished that the Juniors could make all their parties leap year affairs. SOPHOMORE PARTY The Sophs decided that the 'tBig Top would be an ideal setting for their first party. They were right, for if any uninformed person had suddenly stepped into the party's midst, he would have had the guilty feeling that he had sneaked into the circus without getting a ticket, for there was certainly a motley collection of elephants, clowns, monkeys Csome of which didn't need much disguisej and other foolish animals of the Big Top. Needless to say, the Sophomores all had a grand and glorious time and, well, you know the rest. FRESHMAN PARTY .-Xt last those poor little Frosh got to have a party. ,Xnd what a party it turned out to bel Those Freshmen surely made up for lost time. All of the Sophomores, junior, and Senior boys who were present will vouch for that! After the party, the Freshies made a wild dash for liberty, but some of them ran into telephone poles and burned up a lot of gasoline before they finally reached their homes instead of having to walk home from Blue Ridge as they feared. About the only real harm done was that some of the Freshman boys were de- prived of the pleasure of taking their girls home. SCHOOL D5XNLTli Of all the wonderful times! XYell. that isn't the half of it. livervthing was decorated very attractively in Japanese style. Japanese parasols were ex- tended on wires from the ceiling, and then punch was served by girls dressed in Japanese costumes. The boys all swore that if there were any more like them in japan, they were leaving for the Orient ''i-m-m-e-d-i-a-t-e-l-y. ll notice that none of them have gone yet, though fl. .Xnyway, to go on with the dance, it came up to everyone's expectations and believe me, it ended entirely too soon? 55' . v 'WLS T l .,-, - . 4' L , , '-1 V5 .-..,., if ii if C..- ..

For further information, reverently turn over to the Senior's section. FOOTBALL BANQUET Food! Food! Food! But I guess those boys deserved it. after all those exciting games they pulled for us last fall. The boys will surely testify to the good service at this banquet provided that they were able to take their eyes off the waitresses and notice the service. However. this is rather doubtful for the waitresses were none other than six Senior beauties. Really, boys. it's great to uphold the athletic end of the school, isu't it? JU NIC DR SNONY TRIP The juniors were the first students to brave the snow-capped Sierra this year. They didn't regret it. though, for the time they had was splendiferous gnothing less! In fact. they were all for going back the next dayg but of course, that was one of the impossibles. However, next year they will be able to satisfy their longings for another snow trip. . GLEE CLUB PARTY Rain! Rain! Rain! That was the reason why the Glee clubs' picnic at 1Iooney's Grove didn't materialize. Neither did it come to pass in the Gym, for a basketball game was in progress there. :Xnyway the cafeteria was empty so it was immediately turned into a dance hall by the jolly company. Some of the girls served the eats after the dancing was over and they certainly were delicious KI mean the eatsI. In other words. a wonderful time was enjoyed by all. IUNIOR KID PARTY Of all the little children, wagons, Toni Sawyers. and such who came to school that day! The juniors surely got the spirit of the thing, and even the teachers couldn't hold them down Cnot even with demeritsij. XYhen the day was over, the juniors were all tired. Anyway, they all agreed that there could never be another day like it: and the rest of the school agreed with the-md-as far as mis- behavior and childish actions were concerned. jUN1oR mcxic Rocky Hill was the setting for the junior picnic. and they had a picnic. too!

V 'Belle of 'Barcelonav The 'KBelle of Barcelona, a musical comedy by Charles-Ross Chaney, was presented by the Glee clubs on March 2, 1928. The success of the play was due to the untiring efforts of Miss Leedy, the instructor. Margarita de Montero and Lieutenant Harold XVright were secretly engaged, and Patrick Malone and Miss Matilda Ayers were thinking it over when the sad news reached them that Margarita's ambitious parents had betrothed her to a wealthynobleman, Senor Francisco de la Vega. g I The lieutenant suspected the nobleman of being responsible for certain con- ditions existing at the custom house: so with the aid of Emilio, the Hflying torea- dor, he discovered and revealed the true character of the nobleman, came in time to shatter the greatest ambitions of the Senora, and to become the best man at his own wedding. The cast was as follows: Louis de Montero, Neal Clark: Gloria de Montero, julia Hurwitz, Margarita, Rachel Jane Harper: Mercedes, Anna Marjorie List: Francisco de la Vega, Maurice Tyler: Pedro, Lawrence McGee: Emilio, Oliver Nichols fdue to the illness of Stephen Fisher, who was chosen for the partjg Don Juan, Berwin Foster, Don Jose, Joel Brown, Dona Marcela, Gwendolyn Oweng Dona Anita, Euphemie Sellarsg Martha Matilda Ayers, Minnie Cook, Lieutenant Harold Wlright, Charles Smith, Patrick fPatj Malone, Henry Olineg Captain Colton, Ernest Patterson, chorus of students, Spanish dancers, and marines. 51: -A, w Rui i l -YL 413- 'f'Bab January 20, 1928, was the sensational date of this year, for it was then that Bab,U the school play for this year, was presented. lt is a play of four acts from Mary Roberts Rinehart's book. Through the faithful coaching of Miss Newman it was a success. Beatrice johnson, as Bab, was the clever young daughter of the fXrchibald family, Vance Venables, as Carter Brooks, was the quiet, self-possessed hero. Mary Fisher, as Leila Archibald, was Bab's oldest sister. Virgil Hicks, as Mr. Beresford, was the devoted servant of Leila. He was a true Englishman. Mildred Thornbury and Neal Clark were Bab's worried and harried parents. Berwyn Foster, as Eddie Perkins, was the foolish lad of sixteen, who con- sidered himself very grown up. Rachel .lane Harper, as Jane Raleigh, was llab's girl friend. . Dale Campbell, as Ciuy Grosvenor, the actor, was very much struck by Bab's charms. Cora Lee Terrill and Roy Riggs, as Hannah and l.Villiam, were the elderly family servants. Bab came home from school to find her sister, Leila. very much interested in the Englishman. Mr. Beresford. They became engaged a short time after, due to an unfortunate actident, Leila was led to believe that Bah loved Beresford. ' Of course, the engajement was broken.

Despite the delay, the play was well received by the audience. V In the plot of Stray Cats it happened that the wealthy aunt of the Skinner boys, Tom, Dick, and Harry, had died and left a large estate, about four million dollars. This sum was to go to provide a home for stray cats if none of the three boys were married on November fifteenth, following her death. On the last day allowed, each of the boys rushed around in a frantic attempt to be the first one married. Consequently, there was a merry mix-up and a scramble over the different prospects in sight. The re-arranged cast follows, herewith. Qtis Nichols, as a young photo- grapher, was the dashing hero. He knew he would be heir to the fortune if someone would marry him. De Esta Cook was the clever and intelligent office girl who loved her boss. Yance Venables was Tom, the small town lawyer, and Dicks closest rival for the estate. Mildred Thornbury, as Jennie Long, was the frivolous widow. Bender Higgings. as Harry, was the hick farmer. Mary Fisher, as Leona. was the flippant flapper. Julia Hurwitz, as XVanda, was the pretty, vain model. Thoinas Campbell, as Billy jones, was the 'fThat's just what I was going to do janitor.

Gliders ceased in their reckless flights and chewing gum and gossip were forgotten. l glanced toward the stage and found myself in a doll shop. Real live dolls. too. There were all kinds-big, little, foreigners. and native. And could they dance! Some said it was because Max wound them up, but I know they weren't really run down beforehand. And that little pig-tailed nigger! How her blaffk legs flew! The curtain parted. I heard the sound of violins intermingled with whistles, tick-tocks, coo-coos, quails, and what-nots. NVhat an orchestral That little guy leading it sure knew his bandana hanky and it really was music after all! I be- lieve they called it the Toy Symphony, and it sure was some dinger.

The way Hob and Francis did their stuff, and the way one of the Swearingen twins Cwhichever one wasn't the other onej could pick up his brother Cthe other one that wasn't hej and toss him over his shoulder was a wonder. And those biff-bam boxers! They surely looked gory when they got bloody noses! The next was a bunch of knock-out chorus girls that left us gasping. Noth- ing equal to the way they kicked and sang, and smiled at me! No wonder I saw some of the boys sit up straight! Say, if I lose my silk hat like that young gent did, I'd sure wear a derby next time, or else borrow one of the cunning things the dunces sport. Anyway, I know everybody got a boot out of this act, and I sure was smitten by Bobs adorable tie. Also Dreamy I-Iawaii, the swish of grass skirts mid palm trees, and bare legs! Those almost Hawaiians sure strutted their stuff strong. .-Xnd the VVell, did you eversu and I declares that floated around were enough to make those natives proud.

H.-XNFORD Our heavyweights started the season by winning a practice game from Han- ford, at Exeter, 19-13. The Hanford team was outplayed from the first whistle. Exeter's defense, being comparatively poor, allowed the visitors two touchdowns. One of these was due to an Exeter fumble that was recovered by a Hanford player, who ran 60 yards through a clear field to a touchdown. This error did not discourage the Exeter team, but caused it to fight harder and keep Hanford from scoring. Captain Clements, the mainstay of the for- ward wall, said that this tussle was one of the season's roughest. LIGHTWEIGHTS The Exeter lightweight team was defeated by the more experienced Hanford eleven. Our boys were unable to combine individual effort into scoring points. The Exeter players, many of whom were under fire for the first time, gained valuable knowledge, which aided them the following week to hold Visalia to a tie. Score 6-0. EXETER VS. VISALIA Our first league game was played at Visalia, October 8. A very dusty field enabled the Visalia eleven to work many trick plays for long gains. Our team lacked the fight which it had shown in its previous game. XVithin five minutes after the kick-off, Visalia had crossed the goal for the first touchdown. The Exeter heavies rallied, completing a long pass, and a short lateral, only to lose the ball on Visalia's 3-yard line. This was Exeter's only real threat during the game. The Visalia team gained through the line and around end on reverses, with Exeter unable to stop its march. Otis Nichols played a consistent game at left end. Score 19-0. favor of Visalia. l,1oHTw121oH'rs The Exeter bantam team made up for its previous defeat, holding the crack Visalia squad to a tie. From the kick-off the game was a hard battle, see-sawing back and forth. NVeenis smashed the line time after time for good gains. Exeter was unable to penetrate Visalia's defense for a score. Steelman played a more scientific game .at the quarter post than in the Hanford game. The game ended 0-0. lt was decided to play off the tie. The ball was put in play in mid-field. The extra period ended with Visalia in possession of the ball in our territory. making the score Q2-0 in her favor. ,.7 EXETER VS. DINUHA October 15. our heavyweight team won its first home game, 30-0. The Exeter eleven featured some of the best interference seen in the county league. The eleven Exeter men worked as one. not as individuals. Blaylock and Smith smashed the line for gains. while Firebaugh traveled around end. Huckaby quartered the game in good style and made some long punts. Dinuba was never within scoring distance, making only one first down to Exeter's twenty. The following week Visalia defeated llinuba only 6-0.

LIGHTWEIGHTS Dinuba's 110 team was outplayed throughout the game. The hard-hitting Exeter line, backed by a fast backfield, kept the ball almost continually in the enemy's territory. In the second quarter, Jewell dashed to a touchdown after recovering a blocked Dinuba punt. Our lightweight team redeemed itself for its earlier defeats by playing good, hard football. Score 25-O. EXETER LIGHTWEIGHTS VS. TAFT After journeying 120 miles to Taft for a practice game, our lightweights met defeat 40-O. The Taft team was fresh at all times for there was a reserve of 60 players to draw on, while our squad was tired from its long bus ride. The U. H. S. team gained some valuable knowledge from this game. EXETER VS. WOODLAKE This game was so one-sided that the Exeter heavies worked in some un- tried trick plays for practice. Exeter gained, either through the line or around end, with difficulty. Clark, intercepting a Woodlake pass, scored on a specta- cular run. . In the third quarter, the NVoodlake coach pulled his team, declaring that Exeter men clipped from the rear without being penalized. The referees, well- known San Joaquin valley officials, had not been able to detect this illegal play- ing. At withdrawal, the score was 36-O in our favor. As XVoodlake had only one team, there was no lightweight game. EXETER YS. OROSI On Saturday, November 5, the E. U. H. S. teams emerged victors from a double-header at Orosi. The class game developed into a real battle. making it difficult to detect the better team. Orosi smashed down the field to within scoring distance, only to lose the ball, because it lacked the final punch necessary to score. NYith Blaylock, Smith, and Firebaugh toting the ball on end excursions, and line bucks behind the hard-charging line, the Exeter heavies crossed the goal four times, converting once and making the score 25-O. Nichols and Huckaby played consistent games at the quarter position and in running back punts. LIGHTWEIGIITS The Exeter class C team showed itself far superior to the Orosi eleven, scoring 33-O. From the gun, the game was ours. XVith Steelman, Brown, and Martin carrying the brunt of the attack behind the hard-fighting forward wall. We found a combination able to score on passes, long runs, plunges, and trick plays. EXETER LIGHTXYEIGHTS YS. TUEXRE This game was the wind-up of the football season for our lightweights. Tulare, coming here for a practice game, prior to its championship game, found itself against a team as good as it. Tulare succeeded in going over for the first touchdown. From that point on, the game was nip and tuck until the third quarter, when Exeter completed a lateral pass on the kick-off for a touchdown, tying the s:ore. An Exeter fumble fm: - J ,. W.. i ,... EHQJSMT., Y 7 RP, .3 .4,-, 5 1.j.j1j.3 . 1 ,- was recovered by Tulare and carried across the goal for the deciding score. Score l3-6. IEXETIZR VS. IJELANO Un November ll, 1927, our heavies played an exhibition game with Delano, at Tulare. ln the first quarter, Exeter lost the ball several times. after the hard drives down the field to Delano's 15- or 20-yard line. Finally Exeter hgot going. Behind a series of bucks, passes. and end plays, our boys went over for the first score. Exeteris passing attack was considered a real threat, for much yardage was gained by passes, and two conversions were made in this manner. Qui' HA class squad romped over Delano by a greater score than any team in the Southern league had made against it. 20-O. INTILRCLASS At last our teams clashed together, not for the school but for their respec- tive classes. The Seniors against juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen. Although the Seniors had almost all of the regular heavweights, each yard gained was hotly contested. Blaylock, hacking up the underclassman line, played an excellent defensive game, while the Seniors' individual star was Clark. who once galloped to a touchdown after recovering an underclass fumble. The Seniors found it hard to maintain their traditional dignity and win for their classg so dignity was forgotten in the ensuing battle, from which the battered Seniors emerged victorious by a 13-O score. This game concluded the best season that the heavyweights have had in ten years. FC iJO'l'BJXLL l ,I NIE-UP l'IEAVYVVEIGH'l'S LIGH'l'VVEIGH'1'S VV. Linnell, Anderson ...., ..... L F. . A...
