Perhaps the most important and gratifying of these and the one affording us the utmost pleasure was that Grant was able to return the loan which -yve' gratefully received from Benson Polytechnic during Grant's first term. The Executive Council returned this amount and as an added token of our sincere friendship, presented to the student body president of Benson a beautiful picturef Pioneers -to be placed in their library. The annual Cpen House was sponsored by the student body and was even a greater success than that of last year, This is evidence of the constant growth and expansion of our school. The council sent five delegates with an adviser to the Press Conference at Eugene, namely, Walter Heitkemper, Norman Scovill, Leona Moyer, Edmund Hall, Mignon Morgan and Miss Gill. The Drum Corps was officially recognized as a Grant enterprise when the council financed them so that they might have uniforms equal to those of any other school. A nominating committee, consisting of Norman Scovill, Tom Handley, Richard Harper, Leona Moyer, Jack Card and Kenneth Curry, announced the candidates for the Student Body officers for the coming term.

MEMOIRS l Qlass of june, '26 Seniors are necessary in the life of any school. They are the leaders and are looked up to by all lower termers. The Freshies, especially, respect the Seniors, although they do not always show it, and aspire to the time that they will become the dignified leaders of the school. This is the first year that Grant High School has had a senior class. We are the class of June '26 and will be the first class to graduate from Grant. We believe this to be a high honor, which we will be proud of in later years. Early in the term we held a class meeting and elected the following officers: President, Lyle Harrington, Vice-President, Mignon Morgan, Secref tary, Betty Allen, Treasurer, Richard Harper, SergeantfatfArms, William McClung. One of the first things we did was to welcome the Freshies by a party with the cofoperation of the Executive Council. Each Senior escorted three or four of the Frosh to the gymnasium, where the party was held, and saw that each one played in the games, received refreshments, and had a good time. W'e enjoyed the party as much as the Freshies did. At the meeting on December fourth two important committees were appointed. The first, consisting of Florence Wold, Tom Dunham, Margaret Barrett, Stanley Jaloff and Helen Pearson, was appointed to select several kinds of class pins to submit to the class for its choice. The second, consisting of Helen Pearson, Norbert Gleason, Anne Bricknell, LaVeda jones and Irving Greenfield, was to choose several color combinations for the selection of class colors. This class of june '26 hopes to set a high standard for the future gradu- ating classes of Grant High School through their scholarship, activity and organization. BETTY ALLEN. U. S.
