Progress From time immemorial that spirit of progress, that desire to move forward or to increase in pronciency, has dominated men of all ages, forcing them to work out problems of government and science which have made nations great and which have advanced the civilization of the world to its present high standard. Ancient nations through the progressive spirit of their rulers, statesmen and scientists rose from barbaric tribal insignilicance to the acme of governmental and 'scientific proficiency which in some cases surpassed that of the present day. Egypt with her massive pyramids, Greece with her magnihcent produc- tions of art and literature, and Rome with her highly organized laws, are striking examples of such progress. The United States was founded by men who were progressive and desired to see the people as a whole advance and live under a freedom, which could not be found in any of the European nations at that time. 'llhese hardy colon- ists left their homes in Europe, crossed the broad Atantic to that unknown wilderness where they laid the foundation for a government which has pro- gressed in all branches, especially education. The school system especially has grown from an occasional little red Schoolhouse in the colonies to one of the greatest educational systems in the world, free to all classes and giving to those who care to progress the advan- tage of being able to obtain the very highest educational advantages. In our own community the educational facilities have made great progress. Ten years ago the Galt High School was organized and began in the McKenzie building with four teachers and twenty students. A bond issue was voted and the beautiful building we now occupy was erected. Each year has seen an increase in the number of students, until now there are almost one hundred attending the different branches New depart- ments have also been added to the course of study and the number of teachers has been increased to eight. There has been a gradual advance each year since the organization of the school, but the present year has seen more progress than any other. A gen- eral spirit of progress has been shown by the faculty, student body, and trustees. There has been no opposition to any needed improvement. Farm mechanics has been added to the course of study which provides a wider scope to the agricultural department to which it is closely allied. It has aided greatly in securing needed improvement as the boys of the depart- ment have erected a building for a farm shop, installed a solar heating system for the gymnasium which is the pride of all the athletes. 'l'hey have con- structed a new septic tank and are aiding in many other improvements about the grounds. A moving picture machine, delineascope, and camera have been added to the necessary equipment, as well as a neutrodyne radio set, which was secured and installed for the entertainment of the students, faculty and parents. In athletics there has, also, been progress. Football equipment has been purchased for the team which will enter the class B Central 'interscholastic Federation next fall. An athletic field is being prepared south of the high school building which will have a cinder track around the outside, a football gridiron and baseball diamond in the center. The tennis courts are being arranged back of the gymnasium near the grove. journalism has also been added to the regular course of instruction. Each week the student is given a subject to write on and the corrected copy of his story is printed on the high school page of the Galt Herald. The spirit of the progress still prevails and it is hoped that much more will be accomplished in the way of advancement and efficiency and that the years to come will be as progressive as those which have already passed. -james Christian.

CLASS HISTORY Place-Galt High School Time-1920-1924 E Cast-Seniors A CT I The curtain rose on a crowd of bewildered. nervous freshmen, making their brst appearance in high school. How easy life had been in grammar school! Now we had entered a newer, broader field of work. Not until We were duly initiated did the upperclassmen consider us members of the student body. 'ln our hrst year's work we showed as well as we could how capable we were of doing work. Entering in all activities possible we showed what the class of '24 was made of. - ACT ll We entered our second year of school, braver than our first. This year we could smear the freshies with paint and powder as we had been treated the year before. Several of our classmates having moved away, our class was not as large as it had been in our hrst year. ln the athletic field the girls were coming forward. Anna Belle Crump played on the girls' basket ball and baseball teams. Kenneth Taylor played on the boys' basket ball and baseball teams. Anna Belle Crump represented our class on the Buzz Staff. ' ACT lll This year proved more interesting and eventful. We selected our first class jewelry. Class rings! I-low proudly we 'wore them! Our lessons and duties became harder and more difficult, but with determination and good will we managed to conquer every task set before us. We took the seniors on the annual senior picnic and enjoyed a line trip to the Big Trees. VVe also assisted at their graduation. As juniors Anna Belle Crump and Inez Ambrogio played on the girls' basket ball team. Pauline Christesen and Anna Bell Crump on the girls' base- ball team. Kenneth Taylor played on both teams. Anna Belle Crump and Inez Ambrogio represented us on the Buzz Staff. ACT IV Ah! as the curtain goes up on the last scene, sixteen dignified, wise seniors take their places in the last row of the assembly. The class of '24 is well represented in all school activities-school plays, student body officers, Buzz Staff and athletics. On the boys' teams we rind Marvin Dillard, Richard Bates, Kenneth Taylor, james Christian, and Raymond Coupe, all doing their best, working hard for what will soon be their Alma Mater. The girls have worked equally as hard although Cleoniee Christesen, Anna Belle Crump, and lnez Ambrogio Veach were our only representatives on the basket ball team. The climax has passed, the curtain begins to go down. Thanks to our teachers, parents, classmates and friends. VVe have achieved our aim-to be graduated from dear old Galt High!

Margaret Leak and Elwood Tufts had leading roles in A Pair of Sixesf' Helen Small and Irvin Engel also represented ns very creditably, XfVhat would Stop Thief have been but for the substantial cops we furnished? For the beneht of the farm bureau, the juniors put on their regular assem- bly in the evening. VVilliam Fawcett, the president, had charge. Margaret Kelsey, Iris Thomas, and jack Shellcnbarger gave interesting readings. Elwood Tufts played a couple of real jazzy pieces on the clarinet. Helen Small danced a military dance, which she was asked by Mr. Oertel, and Mr. Miller to repeat at a later program. In basket ball we rated very high. The star and captain ol thc team, Albert Calanchini, was a member of our class. Elwood Tufts and lrvine Engel also represented us on the team. Lucille Barquist was the star of the girls' team. Elizabeth lXl'cEnerney and Elsie Daniels have been active on the team, also. The junior class purchased their rings the hrst of the year, and certainly are proud of them. The juniors this year are taking the seniors up above Jackson for a picnic. This, like all of our undertakings, will prove a great success. Next year, as seniors, it will be necessary to put on our dignilied manners and we sincerely hope to keep up our former reputation and if possible, add more to our credit.

Each member sent forth a rallying shout when lVl rs. Raab was appointed sophomore class advisor. A meeting was called in the early part of the term for the purpose of electing officers.

Members of Class After a short preparation, it was presented before assembly on the Friday preceding the Christmas vacation. lmmediately after vacation we put a great deal of concentration and energy into studying in hopes of being successful with our semester examinations. Supposedly, we all were. Our class has always taken a great interest in athletics. Several of our members have played in league basket ball games and some are now playing on the baseball team. During the basket ball season the girls decided to have inter-class games. Each class chose its team and went forth to win the cham- pionship. At first it seemed as though the 'ffreshiesf' sophs and juniors were very evenly matched but the juniors appeared to have lost energy when the season came to a close, The outcome of the games resulted in a tie between the freshies and HSUIll1!4H which was played olT on March 11. The sophomores now hold the championship, having won over the freshmen by a score of 12 to 8.

Page Seventeen --Ov 'nv' N, L1 V Sophomore Class fAboveJ Freshman Class CBe1owJ Page Eighbteen Freshmen August 27, 1923, thirty-eight frightened freshmen abandoned their rattles, their dolls, their tinker-toys and assembled at the high school to meet their fate. About a week after school had started the girls received word that they were wanted in the girls' dressing room. That noon when they walked single tile into assembly with faces painted, and dressed in ridiculous costumes, the boys laughed heartily. ln a day or so it was the girls' turn to laugh, for the boys were being initiated. On September 21, 1923, came the freshman reception, an evening spent in dancing, eating and playing pranks on the freshies. Now they felt that they were really a part of the high school. 'l'he faculty, thinking that they were much in need of careful watching, appointed Mr. Maxwell their advisor. Prompted by his suggestions and under his guidance and that of the class oflicers, llelen Bolton, presidentg Eddy Ambrogio, vice presidentg Grace Dixon, treasurer: George l-lauskin, secretary, they have taken a part in school activities which the other classes with difficulty could equal or excel. , .fks a class they have stood highest in scholarship. More freshman names have been on the honor roll than of any other class. Anna Louise Koontz alone in school has several months attained the honor of having a card on which all the grades were honor grades. 'Ilhey have been active in athleticsg although the girls didn't win the cup in the girls' inter-class basket ball contest, they came within an ace of doing so. 'llhey have resolved to win that cup with honors next year. Aside from playing on the inter-class team I-lilda lioessow and Helen Gerling have played on the lirst team. 'l'he freshman class started something new in a book pound this year. The only dillierence between this and a dog pound is that books are arrested in- stead of dogs. 'llhe price is two cents a day for each book. The assembly given by the freshmen has been said to be the best one. 'l'hey were more successful than the other classes in having the assistance of Mr. Oertel, Mr. Maxwell, and Miss Dickinson. On December 14th the freshman frolic or return reception was given. After a musical program and a dance by Anna Louise Koontz, three freshies, Miss Sorem, Mr. Miller and Mr. Oertel, who had escaped initiation at the freshman reception, were initiated. 'l'heir number attorded much amusement. Refreshments and a program dance added to the enjoyment of the evening. '.l'he freshman class was well represented in both schooliplays. Helen Bolton had a leading role in both Stop Thief and A Pair ot Sixesf' Page Nineteen Page Twenty W l 'lIllllllllllllllIllIIIIIIlW lgl Illlllllllllllll' A ' S At Home Russel Solney ...........,.,... ............,,..,.....,................,... ....,.,,..,..

San Francisco Deceased Alice Brown Pio Lippi Twenty-two Literary THE CODE OF THE WEST 'llhe horizon in the west was etched in gold as the great red sun sank be- hind the stately snow-capped mountains. Deep down in a little valley four men were waiting with bated breaths the ruthless attack of their pursuers. One a lad of scarcely eighteen stood at a small window trying to pierce the fast falling shadows for a sign of the sheri'tI's posse. A heavy hand fell on his shoulder and he turned to see the leader of the most notorious gang of outlaws in VVyoming standing by his side. The man was tall but slightly stooped and his weather-beaten countenance proclaimed him a man of VVest. Here, our race is about run! 'l'hey've got us where we can't get out. Not that l'm kicking at Fortune for I don't give a hang but you, lad, are too young to die by a hang1nan's loop or gun. 'llhe man spoke coolly and his face was expressionless. slim, do you really mean you don't care whether you live or die ? the boy asked, incredulously. 'l'he man shrugged his shoulders and answered, slowly, Herb, I took a great liking to you the first time I saw you, l, admired your gameness. Then, when you got in trouble, 'I' persuaded you to join us. God! Boy, we're trapped here through the treachery of one man whom l always trusted. Herb, I can't let you die the death of an ordinary rustler. I'm responsible for your being here, 'llhe man paused and then went ou. I had a boy once, a merry lad who would have been about your age if he had lived. He was killed by a horse when he could hardly toddle and then Rose, my wife, died and here's where I drifted. The wild daring life was the only thing I have ever cared for since. Some way I can see my son in you and therefore I had figured to get you out of this rotten hole. Look here, jim, l'll take my medicine with the rest of you. You know well as I do l didu't rob that store back home, but I could never have made a jury see it. I'd been in jail a long time ago if it hadn't been for you, the boy answered, calmly. No lad, listen. 'lloniffht about 1'lIlCl-lllffllt you Gotta' slim out and beat it . - ' Y as c. , 2: , , into Mexico. One man can manage where four can t. Dont let Shorty or Sam catch on for they'd double-cross you suref' the man sald as he turned back to his post. Herbert Stanton's glance followed the man admiringly. Outlaw or not he was a type of man that one could not help but admire and respect. In this man breathed the spirit of the VVest, wild and reckless but true to the last. Night closed in and the man urged the boy to flee for his life but the boy refused. Shots were interchanged between the robbers and posse. Shortly before midnight llerb recklessly strode to the window and glanced out. A dull report and the boy fell to the floor. jim Cairn ran to the boy's side and knelt over him feeling swiftly for the wound. The blood indicated it was in his shoulders. Swiftly he secured a rude strip of cloth, he bandaged it and laid the boy on a nearby bunk. Shorty, come here, Cairn called softly and in the gloam a short squat figure of a man appeared. Did they get Sam ? Shorty answered, Yep, shot him through the head. Page Twenty-three Stanton's got his, the boss lied, sinfully. I think we'd better make a break for it. Welre cornered like rats here. VVhat ya' say ? Anything suits me, it's up to you, Shorty replied, willingly. 1 rigi . n aiou an iot r. o Jace 'o vour pos ann ceei a siari All glt I l t l 1 G lalt , n t ll 1 l 1 lookout. Howis your ammunition holding out P Cairn asked. H Almost gone, and the man disappeared, swallowed up in the inky dark- ness. HI-low to save the unconscious boy! was Cairn's thought. At last he hit upon what seemed a feasible plan. ln the darkness he scribbled a note which he pinned on the door and then lifting the unconscious lad he climbed slowly up into the small attic. He descended to the lower room and returned, bringing food, Water and blankets. Again he wrote laboriously and this time he slipped the note into the boy's pocket. Descending he called Shorty and together they slipped noiselessly into the outer darkness. Ten minutes ticked by, broken only by the high wailing cry of a coyote and then sharp reports filled the air. Time slipped by and at daylight two men entered the cabin. Sheriff, what do you suppose became of Sam and the kid, Stanton ? one of the men asked. Here's Sam, dead as a doornailg don't see anything of the boy, the sheriff answered. VVhat's this, the other asked, and the sheriff, examining the note, read: Sheriff: Herb Stanton slipped early last night and by this time he's in Mexico. The boy wasn't in on any of our robberies and he's innocent of the one he is accused of in North Dakota. His pal, Don joiman, pulled it off and stacked the cards against the kid. Jim Cairn. VV'ell, that ends that, the kid's beat it. Lord, Cairn sure was game! It's a shame we had to kill him. Hanged if l don't wish Shorty, the low-down skunk, hadn't preached on him. He's saved his hide by his treachery, darn him, but it'll be jail for him, the sheriff said. Listening intently a white faced boy pressed his ear to a small crack over- head. Hearing the door slam he knew the men were gone and his own liberty practically assured. He dropped his head on his arms and for the first time in years he cried softly. Cairn had been killed, of that there was no doubt and all to save him. He clutched lightly the message Cairn had written him which read: Herb, if you ever get out of this scrape follow the straight path. In our old hiding place you will find live thousand dollars. Take it and use it, for it is mine. Make a man of yourself and be good. jim Cairn. Although Stanton was weak from loss of blood, he had regained conscious- ness shortly before the men had come. No longer did he have any thought for his own safety for he knew he would have no trouble slipping over the border into Mexico. But his thoughts lingered around the man who had gone so gamely to his death a few hours before. -Anna Belle Crump, '24. Page Twenty-four JAKAHAPS OFFERING Jakahai brought his battered Ford to a standstill and lifted the wee lad, John. to the ground. 'llogether they walked towards Benson's, the child eager, the father reluctantly, slowly guided his son along the street. In the store they were met by an idle crowd of loungers. Here comes the Jap! il--lere comes the Jap ! a small boy called. I-lo! l-lo! l---low's big pum'kin face and little pum'kin face today? an- other called. 'llhis was greeted by hearty but mocking laughter which con- tinued all the time Jakahai was in the store. , l-landkerchiefs for the lady, Jakahai was speaking, his mask-like face never changing. John chose a colorful assortment in a pretty box, tucked it under his arm while his father laid the coins on the counter. Look at the funny hobblc of the laps , a youth called, imitating as best he could QIakahai's hasty walk. By this time Iakahai was out of sight of Ben- son's. His face changed, hard angry lines appeared. He walked as if in a trance. John caught the mumbled words, Bah, white men, they are mean. Little John understood not the words but only that his father was angry, horribly angry. But he spoke. Father, father, teacher will be pleased. As he talked he glanced at the package he carried. -lZl.liZ1llZ1l,S face changed as spontaneously when teacher was mentioned. lt softened for a moment, then again the angry lines took their place. Four tiny children and their mother were waiting for them at their humble home. jak, my man, don't let the words of a few people bother you so. I know it's those lazy fellows at Benson's again. Yes, and they'll be sorry some day. VVithout further mention, he went to tend to his small garden. At the evening meal jakahai was even quieter than usual. Finally he said. XVe shall not go to the church tonight. Il-l I if r-t lt -ll f t- -r f '1 dl'ttl h , int. ix an o, anc eac icr wan s us o, xx ai e 1 e Jo n.

She came to speak a few kind words to them. john shyly gave her the package. Oh you little, thoughtful boy, she said, leaving him presently with a hasty kiss. Then the program began. Awed by beauty of words they did not understand and by the sacred quietness, the Japanese family sat in wondering silence. VVhen the presents were distributed, a box of candy was given to each small child. Amid the after rush of examining gifts, merry laughter and cheery words, ,Iakahai skipped unnoticed to the altar. He laid a small offering there. Not money alone was left but greater than that, all -lakahai's hatred for the white men. 'llhe next day Jakahai went again to Benson's. This time he smiled and he was rewarded. 1-le was no longer considered an inferior but an equal to any white person in Orville. -Margaret Kelsey, '25. Page Twenty-five g THE LORD TAKES CARE OF THE IRISH St. Patrick's Day was here and with it the rain. It was a God-send to the country. It came just in time to prevent the whole community from going to ruin, and, like all true Irish people, the 0'Bradys thanked good old St. Patrick who drove the snakes from Ireland for it. 'lfhey had been sent a small jug of wine from a neighbor's and were going to celebrate in the good ol' fashioned way. It was just after a hearty dinner and the whole family were after takin' a sup when a knock came at the door. Like all law-abiding citizens, they did not want anyone to see the little jug, so it was hastily put under the table with three half-filled glasses, and Mrs. O'Brady went to open the door. It was a neighbor with whom the O'Bradys had had trouble a few months before over a cow getting into an alfalfa held. This man, Mr. Ashby, was known over the surrounding country for his small, mean ways. l-le lived alone and was cordially hated by all who knew him. I-Ie came into the warm room and whatever he was going to say was lost as he stood, sniffing the air. Top of the morning to ye, said john O'l3rady, heartily. He knew that the Lord looks after the Irish and was too happy over the rain to bear anger toward his neighbor. Ashby growled something in return and remarked, Somethin' smells mighty good around here. Yes, said John, we have with us a wee bit of drink of youth, and taking the little jug from the table he poured out a drink for Ashby and set the 'ug on the big table again. J IAshby picked it up and smelled the bottle, took a few aimless steps toward the door, and then with a bound, was out and running with all the speed in his rather decrepit legs, toward town, about half a mile from O'Brady's. Sure and I bet he's after having ye arrested, Mrs, O'l3rady said, in an agitated tone. Do you think we will all go to jail P Oh, hush! hush! 'tis he that has the wine, not us, said john, but we may so well be after drinking our little sup. Ashby ran as fast as he could and there was great joy in his heart. To clean up the bootleggers in the state, a reward had been offered to anyone who would give conclusive evidence, and here he had the O'Bradys. '.l'hings were certainly going his way. He was in town now and going toward the district attorney's office when suddenly a hand was laid upon his arm, and he looked up to see a burly oliceman. P Not so fast, me1nan, he said, and just let me have a whih' of your little brown 'uU. ' It ziiiit mine, it's O'l3rady's. You had better go after him, retorted Ashby, trying to shake oHi the hand which was holding tighter. Ah, ha, me lad, that is old stuff. Not yours, indeed. And why were you running the streets with another man's jug F A cold hand of fear seemed to clutch Ashby's heart but he stammered, They had it under the table and I grabbed it and- How did you know it was under the table, the cop asked, impatiently. O'Brady took it up to give me a drink and l took it and run, and Ashby finished, trying to pull away, I am going to see the district attorney. To be sure, and step along, me lad, nice and pretty now, or it's some nice shiny bracelets ye'll be after havin' on yer wrists, said the policeman, giving Ashby a push and falling in beside him. Poor Ashby! Wlieii they arrived at the office he was shaking so that he could hardly stand. The attorney looked up and saw the men and the little brown jug and frowned. Ashby knew he need expect no mercy here and began his explana- tion of how it happened. Page Twenty-six lt's O'Brady's. I got it there, and they are making it. I smelled it and they ought to be arrested-, I-le stopped, and sensing that he was not being believed, stood looking about, miserably wishing he was anywhere else in the world but here. lt is certainly nervy of you to be caught right on the street with liquor and then say it isn't yours, and you certainly picked on a poor man for your bootlegger, because I happen to know john O'l3rady, said the district attorney. You'll have to go to jail until you have your hearing and then most likely you'lI go back. Sure enough, poor old Ashby went back for six weeks and had to pay a large line besides. 'His idea of getting even with the O'I3radys on St. Patrick's Day was a failure, for the Lord looks after the Irish. i -Isabelle McKenzie. 0 TOO OBLIGING l-lello, deacon, won't you sign this petition for poor VVidow I.,arson's son? lVe think if enough people sign they'll let him out on bail. No, there was no relenting in the stern voice of the deacon. And, Charlie Gragg, don't you dishonor your name by supporting a thief. Charlie shrugged his shoulders as the deacon turned away. I guess Billie Larson won't need his name on the petition. Meanwhile the deacon, continuing his way down the street, saw some boys playing keeps, Now, the deacon was a very stern man and very set in the thought that if one strayed from his fthe deacon'sj very strict idea he was very sinful and deserved no sympathy, but must be punished. Mrs. Larson was a very poor woman entirely dependent on Billie for support. The night before Billie had been seen waiting on the corner by the bank. 'Ilhat night the bank had been robbed and llillie, being the only one known to have been at the bank, was accused of the robbery and arrested. For the widow's sake her friends were trying to free her son. 'llhe deacon soundly scolded the boys for playing keeps and after having quoted many Biblical texts to support his lecture and feeling that he had done his duty, he climbed into his car which was near, for though the deacon be- lieved in a very strict life he had found it convenient to indulge in the luxury of a car. He had turned onto the road that led to his home, when a car in front of him dropped a bag. VVhen the deacon came near the spot where the bag had been dropped he stopped and, picking it up, found it was full of money. lie had been quite pleased with the lecture he had given the boys, and with it still in mind he thought to carry out the moral of it. So he jumped into his car, stepped on the as much as a gentleman of his nature could be expected to do and hastened to overtake the car. Stopl Stop ! he yelled as he drew near it. One of its occupants turned around and on seeing him coming after them said something to the driver and the car shot ahead at its fastest speed. The deacon, abandoning all caution, increased speed as he yelled wildly for the other car to stop, liut they had no intention of doing this and without abating the speed of their car, recklessly turned corners until the deacon seemed to be left far behind. He, however, still hopeful of catching them, and wanting a chance to boast to the town people of his honesty, did not give up. Finally the speed of the first car seemed to diminish and at last stopped. It had run out of gas. This gave the deacon a chance to catch up with it. Pardon me, but you dropped this bag. Oh, the driver of the First car seemed plainly relieved, thank you. Page Twenty-seven Don't mention it. The deacon climbed into his car and started for home. As soon as he reached home he started telling his wife of his adventure. You see, Fanny, when I was coming along the road- . A knock at the door interrupted him. Oh, what do you know about it F It was the next door neighbor who came in. They've found a clue to the robbery. That Larson boy wasn't to blame. Some little boys confessed a little while ago that they were round the bank last night and saw a group of men break in and take the money. They came in a big car. The boys say there was something the matter with the car and the men had to push it away, to another street, I guess to fix it. They probably didn't get away till today. Land knows why the boys didn't tell sooner. Fraid of getting in trouble for being around that late at night, I suppose. Having delivered this bit of information she exchanged a few remarks with the deacon's wife and went home. VVhat were you saying when she came in ? asked Fanny. Never mind, Fanny, I-I wasn't saying anything. -Grace Dixon, 'Z7. o THE VOICE OF THE WIND The I-louse of Amor, in striking contrast with the rest of Clerville, shone with brilliant lights. On that evening all activity was centered there, for the Amors were celebrating their anniversary. At 8: 30 all the guests had arrived save one. I wonder why Mary Marquis isn't here tonight? She usually goes to everything. Oh, I think she will come soon, though, you know she has been acting rather peculiar lately. Symptoms of merriment could be heard for blocks. Young and old were enjoying themselves in true old-fashioned manner. Bill Blake, amateur burglar, walked slowly along the darkened streets of Clerville. His figure spoke of a gentleman and although his clothes were much the worse for wear, they had been kept well. Things had not been going well for Bill. His last trick had been a failure. All-of these houses along this street looked like easy picking. Presently he planned to enter one. The slowly rising wind would help to smother his footsteps. After this one trial, he would either leave the city or perhaps would be sent to jail. It was worth trying, nevertheless. Mary Marquis, forlorn and lovely, sat in her favorite morris chair in an attitude of listening and waiting. In the dark parlor she fancied. She saw grotesque Figures, the wind served as the voices of the imaginary people. The wind increased. She thought she heard a footstep. Come right in, she called. Ah! Prince Charming, my dear, you have come at last. For a moment Bill Blake stood undecided, then pulled off his cap, smoothed his hair and said, Yes, my Princess, I have come. I didn't go to Amors'. I was certain you would come. Sit down here on the couch with me. But I must stay only a minute. XfVhat a beautiful ring you have on to- night. Bill eyed the jewel longingly. About all he could see was a sparkle now and then for the lights were very dim. Here, take it, Prince. Indeed, it is very valuable. Father always said that that ring was the reason why I never could have a machine for my own. I have worn it for a long while, planning to give it to you, Prince Charming, when you came. I give it to you now, on condition that you will give it to Princess, on her wedding day. Page Twenty-eight Bill was not listening to her, the wind was subsiding. He imagined he heard a soft voice moaning. Away, away Bill, away. I-Ie stood up. Thank you, my Princess. I hope that I shall see you again very soon. VVith those words Bill slipped quietly out of the house, the ring clutched tightly in his hand. Once out of sight of the house, he examined the ring. Some haul, he murmured, and then as he examined it again. Ah! she has fooled me. A cheap imitation. I'm not leaving Clerville now. l'll make her pay me back, that's what I'll do. 'l'here'll be wedding bells ringing very soon. -Margaret Kelsey, '25. E o HARDSHIPS Marion Dixon stood in the doorway surveying the beautiful sunset. She had come west after the death of her mother and with the aid of her seventeen- year-old brother had taken up a homestead. With the small sum of money their mother had left them they had built their little three-room shack and barn. 'llhey had, also, bought twenty head of cattle and along with a few horses had started a ranch in earnest. As lvlarion watched the glorious sunset a neighbor galloped up on horse- back. She went forward to greet him with true western hospitality. Mr. Marshall had stopped to tell them of the recent cattle rustling on the X-Y ranch. As he was a deputy sheriff he was on his way in search of a clue. Gracious, what if we should lose the few cattle we have? Bob and I would be left without a cent for we put all we had in those bossies, mused Marion. She went in to prepare supper for Bob would soon be through with the chores and would be calling for something to eat. Marion, a tall slender girl of twenty-one, was not much disturbed by the news. For weren't twenty cattle too few for rustlers to bother with? That night she told Bob of the rustling and he laughed at the thought of their cattle being stolen. But the next morning he came in shouting, Marion, Marion, where are you? l can't find those ten milk cows or any of the rest of the cattle. Do you suppose the rustlers took them P Marion sent llob out to take another look and later joined him. But searching for them was like hunting for a needle in a haystack. Bob declared he was going after those cattle if he had to look all over Montana for them. Marion laughingly suggested that they capture the rustlers and secure the 155000 reward. Wlieii she went to call Bob the next morning his bed was empty but think- ing he was probably doing the chores, she began to cook breakfast. VVhen it was ready and she called and called and received no answer she became fright- ened. She ran to the barn where she found his saddle horse gone. I-lis oft- repeated words flashed before her mind and she ran to see if her six-shooter was in its usual place. That, too, was gone. She notified the sheriff by phone and saddled her horse. She ran in the house and quickly got some jerky and a rifle. As a heavy shower had fallen the day before she could see very easily the tracks of Bob's horse which led directly westward toward the high mountains. All day she rode, stopping only to eat some of the jerky. Finally darkness compelled her to stop and spreading her saddle blanket on the ground she tried to get some sleep. By daylight the next morning she was up and off. About noon she struck a well defined trail in' the bottom of a heavily wooded little valley. Eagerly following it, she soon saw it opened into a broader, larger valley. On the farther side of the valley she could see smoke rising from amongst the trees. Page Twenty-nine Thinking it might be the rustlers' stronghold, she began taking the necessary precautions. She abandoned her horse and went on foot, slipping from tree to tree in true Indian fashion. Soon she could see a little opening in the dense foliage and in the midst stood a little shack, farther back a barn and corral. She could see Bob's horse in the corral, and was afraid for the safety of her brother. She hid behind some brush and watched. Soon she saw three men Cshe took them to be rustlersj appear from out of the cabin. But why should they all be walking with their hands behind their backs? Suddenly, who should appear from out of the door but Bob, carefully holding a gun leveled on the rustlers. VVith a shout of joy she ran out to meet Bob, who gave her a cool look and said, lfVell, Marion, I found our cattle and I also took your advice and cap- tured these fellows. Surprised them last night and was forced to wing one of them in the arm before he was willing to tie the other fellows' hands behind their backs. Gee, last night was one long old night but you bet, I didn't close an eye. A short consultation followed between the brother and sister. bob then went to saddle his horse and those of the rustlers, while Marion watched the crest-fallen men. Say, miss, that brother of yours is a peach. We're some fools to be caught by a kid. XNe thought he would get scared and run, one of the men exclaimed. As Bob came up with the horses who should appear but Deputy Marshall. His surprise on beholding Bob and Marion in possession of the rustlers was comical to behold. l-le took the men off the kid's hands and left them free to drive their stock home. Report tomorrow for the reward, were his parting words. -Helen Bolton, '27, J 9225 fa 'o F' Page Thirty ' WHEN THE LIGHT DAWNED Kitty Adair, her blue eyes a little anxious, stood -on the steps of a cozy house, in a little town out iWest. She was waiting for her husband to come home. I-le was unusually late this evening, hence the anxiety. They were a newly married couple and things were not going especially well for them. She hadn't seen any of his family before she became a part of it. Of course, it was not necessary, she thought. She wasn't marrying the family, so why worry about them? lt was the man she was worrying about. Kitty decided that what she supposed was poise and reserve in the man she married, was simply stupidity and lack of ambition and unless she wanted to keep on taking dictation the rest of her life she'd better accept her husband's sugges- tion and go East to his parents. VVhen jack Adair arrived home at last he again suggested the afore-men- tioned trip to the East. So they went back to the environment of the hitherto unconsidered family. Kitty with all her swagger, her independence, her almost practiced disre- gard for traditions of any kind, had something of the effect of a bomb on a table of satsuma, in the atmosphere her husband's mother had created. Everything seemed to snap. 'l'he very air was electrified, because the new datighter-in-law started out with the intention of making everybody and everything over to suit her taste. . XfVhen her mother-in-law had some old furniture, lovely old antique things, brought out of the storage, and sent out to the new apartment, thinking she was doing the wife of the not-too-ambitious husband a favor, Kitty was very scornful. I think she is just doing that to insult and aggravate me, she told her husband, not even considering what the parting with such treasures must have cost. Kitty treated her mother-in-law so spitefully that their calls became less and less frequent and the atmosphere during them more and more frigid. Later when Kitty was trying to get a divorce she said all the fault was her mother-in-law, that she and .lack would have gotten along all right if it hadn't been for the constant interference of Mrs. rixflillf. XVhat she didn't understand just then was that a girl shouldn't expect to go into a family and revolutionize it, and that the most happiness comes to the one who respects the opinions of others, that by, least of all when it comes to those rarer harmonizing qualities-courtesy, taste, and forbearance, 'It wasn't until Kitty Adair learned all of these things that she withdrew her suit for divorce. returned to her husband, put the right valuation on his family and then she found happiness. -Lucille Barquist, '25.

On the evening of November 9th, a three-act comedy, A Fair of Sixers, was presented in the high school auditorium. It was a novel French royalty play, with tense dramatic situations and delightful humor. The members of the cast deserve the highest praise for their cleverness and skill. M nch credit is due Miss Sorem, who by her excellent instructions as coach, made the play a great success. M essrs. Johns and Nettleton were business partners in the Eureka Diges- tive Pill Company. As each one thought himself superior to his partner, they were constantly quarreling. A very clever lawyer friend, Mr. Vanderholt was repeatedly called in to solve their troubles. After much consideration and argument on their part, it was linally decided that one of the gentlemen should act as valet to the other one for a period of one year. But to prevent a scene of You First, My Dear Alfonzof' they played a game of poker to see which would serve the other nrst. The game was played. Johns, having lost by a great change of luck, was forced to serve in the home of Nettleton. As usual, there were many complicated situations but peace was again restored when Mr. Vanderholt was again called in, following a dispute at the Nettleton home. lt was here that Miss Florence Cole, a very clear friend of Mr. Johns', brought the fact to light that a poker game is unconstitutional in settling such affairs.

Spreading The News Spreading The News,', a very clever and amusing play, was next pre- sented by the sophomore class on Friday afternoon, December 21st, before the assembly. The scene was laid at the outskirts of a fair, at a market place in Ireland. I-low gossip spreads and stories grow was shown in the amusing events of the drama. VVhen Jack Smith left the fair, he forgot his pitchfork. Mr. Bartley Fal- lon noticing this picked it up and meant to overtake him, and return the fork to him. VVhen Tim Casey and Mrs. Tarpey heard this they believed that he was surely following him with some harmful intent and that there must have been a quarrel between them. Mrs. Tarpey went at once to tell her friends the news. She was told that Jack Smith's wife was laying out a sheet on the hedge. Being hard of hearing she understood that Mrs. Smith was laying out a sheet for her dead. And thus the story grew until Jack Smith himself returned to disprove it.

It was considered a great success by all. The funny situations in this comedy follow each other so rapidly that the laughs brought forth tread upon the heels of the next. The stage was entirely renovated under the directions of Mr. Miller, to furnish a setting for the wealthy New England home. Here James Cluney and Madge Carr had everything prepared for their wedding. .lack Doogan and his fiancee, Nell, acting as maid, who were employed in the household, stole the wedding gifts, but were unable to leave before the gifts were missed. Mr. Williaiii Carr and James Cluney each believing himself to be a klepto- maniac, carefully protected the thieves. As always is the case, they were discovered at last by the police who came to search the house. As Nell begged forgiveness, promising to never steal again, they were not delivered into the hands of the police and all ended happily in a marriage.

Charles Smith Much of the success of dramatics this year is due to the valuable assistance of Mr. Oertel and lX'l r. Miller who worked with and directed the activities of the stage club. Early in the year they installed new colored lighting effects, electric bells and buzzers. 'llhey did the work of painting, papering and building new panels, assembled and arranged furniture and other stage equipment. They tore out the useless wings on either side of the stage, thus facilitating the movement of stage furniture and making more room on the stage. If plans now being considered for enlarging the stage and auditorium, for making drainatics one of the regular academic subjects are realized patrons of Galt High School will be able to witness more and better productions next y ear. Page Thirty-seven MUSIC Under the leadership of Mr. Oertel, Galt High School has been able to make splendid progress in orchestra and band work. There have not been as many high school students in the organizations as previously owing to the large number of players who were graduated last year. Both organizations have devoted much of their time to dance music, but next year with a special instructor and a period especially set aside for music more stress will be laid on concert and standard music. The orchestra made its first appearance before the public November 9th, when the student body presented the play A Pair of Sixesf' Three numbers, Narcissus by R. Schlepegerellg The Boomerang, a march by Alex Filth- gaw, and Cuibiribin, a waltz by A. Pestalazza, were played. The band played several standard marches as a part of the advertising campaign for the play Stop Thief. They toured the county and adjoining towns winning for themselves favorable comments. VVhen Stop Thief was presented the orchestra assisted by rendering junior League by Maskie Beyer, Noramandy'l by Kienzle, HT,1Tl Going South, Arcady by Al Johnson, Last Night onthe Back Porch, and The Common Wealtl1 by Machie Beyer between acts. Their good work won the admiration of all. Besides playing at high school entertainments the orchestra played for dances at the Legion Hall, also for the freshman and senior receptions. The playing of the band added much spirit to the game played between Sacra- mento and Galt, and the visitors were very much impressed by its good work. The orchestra is now working on some concert and classical music for the b I a commencement exercises. Hearts and Flowers, Hl41CSl7CStI'ZlL11'l'l,U American Patrol, and Orphans, are being practiced and it is believed that they will C C ks v be 'i great success The orchestra personnel is as follows: Violin ............ .........

Page Thirty-eight Elf X :lt 1:9 lf! - sig ri! AA All WW Qin ,- - fat FR , nf..-,, A Radio Club was organized last September in the high school for the henelit of the teachers and students. Mr. Oertel, who started the organiza- tion, llflr. llfliller, our expert operator, james Christian, Sam Christian, Ross Davis, Harry Patton, Ndfilliam Fawcett, Mr. Maxwell, Charley Smith, and llruee l'lradforcl joined as charter members. The students took an interest in the work of the organization and worked hard to put up an aerial for the reception of concerts, lectures and a countless variety of programs broadcast. .I lowcver, the largest part of this work was done by Mr. Miller and Mr. Oertel. With a little persuasion the trustees consented to pay for the outfit which consisted of a standard Kennedy receiver, Western Electric power amplifier and loud-speaker with an attachment to run in on the light circuit, thus elim- inating expensive dry batteries. A few months later the Hazeltine Neutro- dyne receiver was placed on the market. As this was better than the set we were then using and the best on the market, we asked the trustees to exchange the Kennedy which they did. Very good results have been secured with the Neutrodyne. Stations always come in on the same settings so that it is pos- sible to log broadcasters. lllembers ol the club think this type of receiver better than any other. Several have installed Neutrodynes in then' homes and have obtained un- usually good results with them. . M r. Miller has been making these sets for members of the club or most anybody who was interested. On the night of the freshman reception Kimball Upson, from whom our hrst set was purchased, broadcast a special program of dance and organ num- bers. At the end of every piece it was announced over the air that they were broadcascting a special program for the Galt High School. This was good advertising as thousands of people were listening to this station. Other radio programs were enjoyed. Pupils danced by the music during noon hour through the winter months. Concert music was enjoyed by the audience during intermissions of the play A Pair of Sixesf' VVhen the Mutts entertained the jeffs, the students danced to music broadcast by a high powered station in San Francisco. Perhaps more interest was taken in the radio when a San Francisco sta- tion broadcast play by play the games played by the New York Yanks and Giants than at any other time. Students went without lunch or munched it in thc auditorium where the receiver is installed. They crowded around the loud speaker to get the details of the world series games. Many of these fans learned of the score long before a paper could be published. Page Thirty-nine . sf 'GL - SPANISH CLUB The Spanish Club which was formed last year has been very active again this term in furthering an interest in Spanish. The members of the Spanish Club have subscribed to El Eco , a Spanish paper from which articles have been read and discussed at their meetings. The members of the Spanish Club expect to produce a one-act play before the term is ended. This will be the most important feature of the year, as it will show what can be done by the Spanish Club. All A and B students in the iirst year Spanish were initiated into the club January 25, 1924. A part of the initiation ceremonies included the eating of Spanish VVorms, a dish they tasted of with considerable reluctance, before they could be admitted to the club. Then they were asked some personal questions which had to be answered by the truth so we could consider their fitness as members of the club. This was followed by refreshments which all seemed to enjoy very much after the initiation formalities. It is an honor to belong to the Spanish Club as only those students who have done excellent work may be admitted. The following people have been admitted this term: Eddie Ambrogio Helen Gerling Ed Barber Christine Madsen Margaret Kelsey Mary Greeno Raymond Biaggi A Beatrice Harms The officers for this term are: Cleonice Christensen .........,.,,, ......,.. .............,..............

S e eretary and Treasurer Page Forty Page Forty-one Society THE FRESHMAN RECEPTION On Friday, September 21, the freshmen became genuine members of the student body of Galt High. Frightened freshmen girls gathered in the auditorium where they remained until the gallant, bashful freshman boys selected their partners. in couples they marched out to the gym. The parade did not end there, however. The lads and lassies continued to march around in true circus form until just before the main event of the evening. Terrihed freshies awaited their turn. They were happily disappointed though, for their superiors were very considerate in their treatment of the greenest of Galt liligh students. In the excitement, two freshies thankfully escaped a great part of the ceremonies. Wlieii the upper-classmen were satisfied that the freshmen had undoubt- edly been impressed with the position which they, the babes, held in the eyes of their dignified elde1's, they were free to enjoy themselves. Special radio music was broadcast by the Station at Sacramento for the Galt Joint Union High School. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. Dainty refreshments were served. O MUTT AND JEFF CAMPAIGN Mutt and Jeff were prominent figures in Galt I-Iigh in October, 1923. The family of Mutt flviarvin Dillardj challenged jeff f Sammie Christianj in a salesmanship contest. The agreement was that the side selling the most subscriptions to the Galt Herald would be rewarded by a party given by the losing side. Keen competition ensued. ln the end the Mutts entertained at a weiner roast, given in the high school grove, October Sth. The jeifs were given a substantial feed, namely: coffee, buns, weiners and marshmallows. VVhen the craving of the Jeffs had been satished all adjourned to the audito- rium to dance. 0 THE FRESHMAN FROLIC The freshmen return party was in the form of a clever program. Features of the evening were a piano solo by Irma Louise NVllCS, vocal duet by Char- lotte Odette and Helen Bolton, a dance by Anna Louise Koontz, and the initiation of three freshies who escaped before, namely: Miss Sorem, Mr. Miller and Mr. Oertel. Mr. Oertel wrote the directions given by various members of the student body in the mystic symbols while Mr. Miller was expected to execute the orders. l-lowever he didn't swim and he didn't-? Mr. Miller also performed a few tricks. Miss Sorem presented a short, clever play entitled A Gathering of Nuts. A program dance with music furnished by the orchestra and lunch com- pleted the evening's entertainment. 0 DINNER TO CAST In appreciation of their faithful work in producing A Pair of Sixers, the members of the cast were royally entertained in Stockton on Wecliiesclay, November 7. lt has been said that this was, indeed, a hilarious celebration. At dinner in Hotel Stockton, the waiter, by a grave blunder, gave Harry Patton an extra large bowl of soup. That poor, lone bowl of soup has been the cause of many hearty laughs at l'larry's expense. Later they attended the theatre and saw the musical comedy Irene, Page Forty-two CAMPUS DAY Friday, llflareh 21, 1924, was set aside as campus day. Students reported in the auditorium as usual for roll call. NVhite collars and pretty dresses were very much out of place that morn. Groups were put under the super- vision of the teachers. The boys cleaned up the school yard: girls cleaned up the library, sewed on curtains for the teachers' room, and last but not least, those girls in the domestic science classes prepared ther dinner for the hard workers. At 1:00 o'clock the cooks served a hearty meal which consisted of beans, buns, weiners, salad, ice cream, cake and lemonade. By 2:00 o'clock dinner was over and the baseball boys were scrambling into their suits. That afternoon Courtland carried home the honors by defeating the Galt nine. 0 SENIOR SNEAK DAY April first at 9:00 o'cloek not one senior was in sight. The entire class, advisor and eats had snuck away to play a true April fool's joke on the rest of the school. All day they capered about in the snow, near Jackson. Sopping wet duds, shoes that wouldn't go on, cold hands, and the giggles sum up the activities of this grand occasion. The rest of the school was greatly benefited as well, for several classes were not held during the day. 0 OPEN HOUSE On Friday, May 2nd, Open House will be held at the high school. The various classes, clubs and teachers are expected to do their stunts, for the program will start at 1:00 p. m. and will continue until 9:30 p. m. There will be a score of interesting exhibits, a crowded program of entertainments, and many academic and mechanical demonstrations. There will be no ad- mission charge, consequently a full house is expected. 0- - JUNIOR - SENIOR PICNIC The juniors are looking forward to Saturday, April 12, the day on which they hope to take the seniors on the customary junior-senior picnic. The plan at present is to drive to a park near jackson where the picnic will be held. As jackson is not far from Galt, the larger part of the day will not be spent on the road, but at the picnic proper. All the business-like secrecy on the part of the juniors naturally leads the seniors to believe that the juniors are really going to show them the best time possible. Page Forty-three Page Forty-four u:,.....A Boys' Basket Ball Tegm Boys' Athletics BASKET BALL Basket ball has in past years been Galt's weakest point of defense but under the guidance of excellent coaching an almost invincible quintet has been developed, one of the best teams put out by any small school in central California. Most of the boys at the beginning of the season were inexperi- enced players. However, as soon as two squads could be put in shape they were put through stiif drills every day and were kept under rigid training rules. .By adhering to these rules the first team was soon in fine condition. llitherto indifferent players showed surprising ability and speed. Galt was able, through their efforts, not only to win the championship of the Rural League to which they belonged, but to play two games in the California Inter-scholastic Federation which Galt joined this year for the first time. Out of twenty-live games played they won twenty-one, and scored 211 points to their opponents' 51. M r. V. VV-. lrloliiman acted as coach. Those on the team were: A . .

Substitute August 30-Galt, 285 Galt American Legion, 15 The first practice game of the season was played with the Galt American Legion. The game was full of pep,' and enabled Coach-Hoffman to point out the weakness of the team. November 2-Galt, 30g Galt American Legion, 20 Although the Galt boys were outweighed, they were too fast for their opponents. lien Dresser played a good defensive and offensive game.,-' November 9-Galt, 245 Galt American Legion, 16 In the third practice game both teams played a tighter defensive game. Galt featured with long shots. November 16-Galt, 203 Galt American Legion, 11 Again Galt triumphed over their heavier opponents. Taylor played a good game and Coupe did well at center. This game showed Galt had a winning team. . The Galt Seconds lost their first game of the season to St. Agnes College of Stockton, 11-16. November 23-Galt, 39g Courtland, 6 Courtland came to Galt for the first league game. The Galt quintet proved that they had a good shooting combination and an air-tight defense. The game was too one-sided to be very interesting. Galt Seconds won from Courtland Seconds, 29-11. November 30-Galt, 143 Amblers QNumber Zj, 16 This was our first defeat of the season. The game was played at Stockton. Galt took the lead and maintained it until the fourth quarter. Then the Amblers sank a field goal in the last minute of play, thereby winning the game. Page Forty-five December 7-Galt, 34g Elk Grove, 10 Galt went to Elk Grove for the second league game. Our boys could not get started on account of an outside court. 'ffhe first quarter ended 5-4 in our favor. But in the third quarter the game was Gaft's. Richard liatcs starred, sinking eig'ht field goals. Galt's rooting section was well supported. Galt Seconds won from Elk Grove Seconds, l4-ll. December 21-Galt, 315 Amblers CNumber Zj, 13 Stockton Amblers came to Galt. Although the Amblers used first team men and outweighed the local boys, Galt's pass work and shooting was good and they scored an overwhelming victory. Galt Seconds lost to the Phi Chi team of Stockton, 12-18. December 26-Galt, 425 Sego Club, 12 The Sego Club was no match for Galt. The ball was in possession of the Galt team most of the time. The forwards and center had an easy time in sinking field goals. December 28-Galt, 40g Preston School of Industry, 13 Preston School of Industry came to Galt for a practice game. Calt's passing and floor work was good. Galt Seconds earned a hard game from the Athens Club of Stockton, 13-lO. january 4-Galt, 135 Preston School of Industry, 21 Our second defeat of the season was played at Preston. The Galt boys were handicapped' on account of the court, which had a cement floor and cement wall and pillars on the sides. St. Agnes College of Stockton defeated the Galt Seconds 8-38. The boys complained about a bad court. January 9-Galt, 28g Galt American Legion, 22 Galt again broke into the winning column. The defense of the team won this game. Ben Dresser and Coupe did exceptionally good playing. january 111-Galt, 17 3 San juan, 6 Our third league game was played at San juan. The boys were slowed up on the outside court. Richard Bates started the scoring. ln the third quarter Galt had the game pretty much their own way. Galt Seconds came out victorious over San juan Seconds after forty min- utes of slow-bang basket ball, 9-5. January 15-Galt, 19g Ione, 11 This game was a thriller. lt was anybody's game until the fourth quarter when Galt piled up a lead. Richard Bates showed good pivoting and Engei, our star guard, was there every minute of the game. january 18-Galt, 35g San juan, 7 1. San Juan came to Galt for the fourth league game. ft was easily Galt's game from the beginning. Our two stellar guards did good work keeping the score as low as 7. Galt Seconds had an easier time in defeating San juan Seconds this time, 25-7. january 23-Galt, 265 Sutter Creek, 28 This was the third practice game we lost this season. The place in which the team played could hardly be called a basket ball court. The Hoor was very slippery and the ceiling lower than that to which our boys were accustomed. january 25-Galt 379 Elk Grove, 7 Elk Grove came to Galt for the fifth league game. Galt began the scoring and had the game tucked away before Elk Grove started. Elk Grove could not solve Galt's defense. Galt Seconds had a walk-away from Elk Grove Seconds, defeating them 35-2. January 29-Galt, 32g Sutter Creek, 8 Sutter Creek was confident of victory, but the local boys had been practic- Pnge Forty-six ing hard. Sutter Creek threw the first goal and Galt's defense tightened. Coupe threw a ringer and then his teammates got into the scoring column. Sutter C1'eek was lost after that. February 1-Galt, 453 Calaveras, 15 The weak Calaveras team was no match for Galt. Richard Bates and Ben Dresser were the individual stars. Coupe played a good game at center, making his share of points. Galt Seconds ran circles around Calaveras Seconds, defeating them 48-13. February 5-Galt, 17g Lodi, 16 Galt journeyed to Lodi for a practice game. The defensive playing of the guards found Lodi trailing 6-ll at the first half. Both teams featured with long shots. l.odi was creeping up on Galt every minute. But finally the ball went through the hoop for the winning point. i February 6-Galt, 34, Ione 15 This game was played on lone's court. Galt had 110 trouble in penetrating their opponents' defense. Galt scored at will. February 8-Galt, 495 Courtland, 15 This game meant a thousand per cent if we won and the Sacramento Rural League cup was ours. The first half ended in Galt's favor, but there was still doubt about the game. During the third and final quarter the boys came back hard, sinking 19 field goals in rapid succession. Galt Seconds were too much for Courtland Seconds and easily won, 29-13. February 15-Galt, 20g Calaveras, 11 Galt was handicapped on the Calaveras court. The boys could not find the ring until the third quartcrp ln the fourth quarter Calaveras fell too far behind to win back the lead. James Christian starred for Galt's second team. Their fioor work excelled Calaveras, Seconds and won, 30-14. February 22-Galt, 16g Sacramento, 15 This was the first time Galt entered the C. 1. F. in class A. It was a battle royal. Sacramento scored first and led the first quarter, 3-1. ln the second quarter Galt came from behind and rolled up a score of 10-6. In the third quarter Sacramento threatened to pass Galt but Calanchini pulled the team out of danger by sinking two field goals. The final quarter was anybody's game. A pass to llresser sent the ball through the hoop for the final count. This game entitled Galt to play Stockton for the championship of C. 1. F. central section. , February 29-Galt 14 3 Stockton 26 Galt was playing the state champions of last year. The righting Tarzans proved far superior to the Galt live. ln the first and second quarters the game was in doubt. Galt came back in the third quarter and swept the Tar- zans ofii their feet with three field goals. But in the final quarter Galt could not penetrate Stockton's defense. This game Cl11l1ll1E1tCfl Galt from the running for the state championship. Galt is confident of putting out a winning team next year. Kenneth Tay- lor, our star guard, will be lost by graduation, but the rest of the team will be much the same, wiser by another year's experience. O BASEBALL Coach lX'liller's call for baseball candidates found but a few men on the field who knew anything about baseball. Many of Galfs best athletes were still playing basket ball, others who had played on the team previously had been graduated. A scrub team was whipped into shape for Courtland, the first game of the Rural Athletic League, of which Galt is a member. The scrub team surprised itself and Courtland, too, by its good work. Page Fortyaseven Interest is growing steadily, although Galt has not as yet been victorious in any of the games so far, great improvement is being made and Coach llfliller thinks with steady practice, Galt can yet capture some of the prizes. The line-up of the team is as follows: Bottimore ...,...i.,.,...,...i..,........,.,.,.............,.,.....,....... ........,.,. P itcher Engel .................. .,.,...,.,......

' Dillard gathered three hits. one being a home run, and Crump singled twice. March 7-Galt, 45 Elk Grove, 10 Elk Grove came to Galt for the second league game. Galt had the lead 4-0 in the first four innings. But errors enabled Elk Grove to make the score 6-4. Galt had the bases filled several times and then could not score. I March 21-Galt, 6g Courtland, 9 Courtland scored first and then two hits for Galt tied the score. The last half of the eighth inning Galt led 6-5. Courtland tied the score and won the game in the ninth inning. Errors were made constantly by both teams. April 4-Galt, 23 Elk Grove, 8 'l'he Galt boys did not play as well as usual, for the home diamond was being worked and practice was impossible. Dillard did some good work as pitcher during the last half of the game. Page Forty-eight Page Forty-nine Girls' Atheletics Basket ball practice began early this season under the supervision of Miss Dickenson, aided by Mrs. Raab. The girls won all of the eight games played but they worked hard and faithfully and earned this remarkable record. The two Lucilles managed to secure 219 points to their opponents 73 in the eight games. Anna Belle Crump was chosen as captain and Inez Veach manager.

The Galt team, although weakened by the loss of two of its players, won easily by a score of 25-11. Page Fifty San juan, 12g Galt, 23 'llhe second encounter was played with San juan, january llth, in which the flalt girls were easily victorious. Barquist featured by her long shooting ni this game. Ione, 25 Galt, 21 lone came down to Galt, january 15th, but met defeat at the hands of the home team. The guards showed up especially well in the tilt. Elk Grove, 35 Galt, 27 Galt met Elk Grove again on her own court, january 25th, and, although the lulk Grove girls showed much improvement, the Galt girls piled up a much larger score than did their opponents. Calaveras, 12g Galt, Z5 H 'I'he Galt girls' winning streak continued when they defeated Calaveras, liebruary lst, by a large score on their own courts. Barquist again featured with her shooting, ably assisted by Mollring. P. G. 8z E., 43 Galt, 17 The Pacific Gas and Electric girls came to Galt, February 2, and were defeated, 17-4. Although the home team was weakened by the absence of their touch centers and a forward, they managed to replace them and win the hard-fought game. lnez Veach was the outstanding star of this game by her speedy guarding. Y. W. C. A., 165 Galt, 54 February 12 the Galt girls journeyed to Sacramento to play the Young XfVomen's Christian Association team and again they were victorious by the large score of 54-16. llarquist starred by her long shooting and was respon- sible for 43 of the 54 points made. Calaveras, 135 Galt, 22 A return game was given Calaveras, February 15. This proved to be the closest and most exciting game of the season. Although the score shows the Galt girls leading by nine points, the game was exceedingly close until the last quarter. Lucille llflollring featured by putting in most of the badly needed goals. 'l'his was the last game of the season. Although several other games had been arranged, they were canceled by the other teams. The team loses four of its players this year, the two guards, Christensen and Veach, Side Center Crump, and one of its touch centers, P. Christensen. But as there is much good material among the other classes, a winning team is expected next year. ln the inter-class basket ball games played among the girls the sophomores were victorious and won the trophy after a play-oft with the freshman team. 'llhe girls are showing much interest in baseball and lliliss Dickenson ex- pects a good team on the field. Several games have already been scheduled with Elk Grove for the month of April. Tennis hasn't been very important among the girls but when the new tennis court is built it is expected that it will be popular with many who have hitherto shown very little interest in this sport.
