Eddie Eaton later moved away, and Leo Weber was chosen to fill the vacancy. T. H. Coke and Helen Schepman were our faculty advisers. We were represented in interclass debate, basketball, track, tennis, orchestra, and Glee Club. As Juniors we had 1 18 members. We elected Bob Howard as President; Paul Neely, Vice-President; June Rose Tingley, Secretary; Leonard Lewis, Treasurer; Walden Manfull, Student Council Representative; Bruce Brickell, Sergeant-at-arms. Helen Stiles and Constance Baker were chosen as class advisers. Our class play. Polly With a Past, was a big success. We also gave the Washington birthday play, “ I ruth for a Day.” We entertained the Seniors at the annual Junior-Senior barbeque held tire 29th of April in Sams Valley. We welcomed the Freshmen this year with the annual Reception. The Christmas play was given December 23. On April 3 and 6, we presented the play, The Three Graces. Senior Dress-up Day and Table Rock hike were the last activities of the Senior year. Baccalaureate. Class Night. College Club luncheon, P.-T. A. banquet, and Commencement on May 31 were the events that ended our Senior career. Because their grades were so evenly matched for Class Scholarship, it was necessary for Mabel Jones and Vern Green to draw straws to determine Class honors for Commencement. Mabel Jones will be Valedictorian and Vern Green will be Salutatorian. The Three Graces” The Senior play, auditorium April 5 and 6.

During the year the Freshmen have tried to be active and loyal members of the Grants Pass Student Body. The boys built the Rally Night Bonfire, the traditional duty of Freshmen, and took active part in the Serpentine. Our class has been fairly well represented in athletics and other activities. The annual Freshman-Sophomore and Sophomore-Freshman parties were enjoyed by both classes. - The Freshman boys were victims of a “Smokeless Smoker” and the girls were initiated by the Girls’ League at a party. We freshmen have tried, in study as well as activities, to be worthy members of the Student Body. Our officers for this year are as follows: Buster Carter. President: Larry Adams. Vice-President: Virginia King. Secretary: Waldo Gray, Treasurer; and Glen Mitchell. Student Body Representative. Chemistry Contest The annual Chemistry examination given to High School Chemistry students by the Oregon section of the American Chemical Society was held May 4.

Football From a standpoint of games won. the 1933 football season was not altogether successful, but the experience that some of the underclass men gained will be invaluable in forming a nucleus for the 1934 team. The persistent efforts of Coach Dale F. Ginn were constantly dogged by many injuries and the loss of four regulars. Bob I' agan, Joe Hamilton. Bob Hillis. and Vernon Johnson. Although 10 lettermen will be lost this year, the prospects for the next season’s team look very favorable. A summary of scores for this season follows.

The members when selected are representatives of all organizations and classes of the school. They assist at most school functions, including plays, concerts, and all athletic contests. This year the officers were Walden Manfull, President: Billy Bromley, Vice-President; Stanley Bennett. Secretary: Leo Weber, I reasurer; and Dale Ginn. Adviser. They have concentrated their efforts this year, with the cooperation of the Hi-G, upon the building of the G”on Baldy. •Mr. Beer: (at telephone) “Hello: llello! Can you let me talk to my wife?

Coach Ginn Finch Burden Weber Carter Limning Furchncr E. Johnson Basketball I he ( avemen this year had more success in basketball than they did in football. C oach Dale F. Ginn was confronted at the outset, however, with the task of building an entirely new team as only one letterman. Don Burden, was back from the preceding year. The unfortunate loss of Melton Holloway because of an injury early in the season necessitated a complete reorganization of the squad which was really a handicap at the start. Although the team won no conference games, the boys showed up well in them and won most of their non-conference games. Grants Pass will lose only 2 of its 8 lettermen this year in graduation.

The prospects for the 1934 season are not so good with only three lettermen hack, those being Herman Henrikson, Jimmy Orr, and William 1 aylor. This means a great deal of work on the part of the boys to equal the evenly balanced squad of 1933. This year the team has hopes of winning the meets at Grants Pass on May 5 and at Klamath Falls May 12 if Henrikson, Orr, Taylor, Weber, Bromley, and Burden, who was high point man in the interclass meet, and a few of the Freshmen and Sophomores come through as winners.
