Fre§id©et 9 § M©§§aie Radio has been chosen as the theme of the S ' 37 Semi-Annual because it is one of the paramount influences in the range of the ears of the world today. So rapidly has it become a power in modern life that it reminds us of Minerva. Roman .goddess of wis- dom, who sprang full grown from the head of Jupiter, clad in shining armor and singing of triumph. The song of triumph is not always uppermost in radio. We are too -close to its beginnings and development. But we feel a sense of wonder at the daily occurrence of instantaneous communication between widely separated com- munities, ciiies. and nations, the expression, and the outgrowth of a very old desire. Radio remains for us the eternal miracle While radio is daily making many worthwhile contributions to civilization, it is also exercising an Influence that can be of no benefit to us. As intelligent students, we must choose between the worst and the best of these programs that come to us over the air. Kven better than the mere choosing, we may visualize L. A. High as a great radio station with the obligation to broadcast through our characters and every- day accomplishments, deeds that in some way may help our fellow men And now as I sign off from three of the happiest years of my life. I wish to thank you for the wonderful spirit and cooperation that you have shown. Serving you dur- ing the past term has been an honor and a worth while pleasure. Sincerelv. L. B. HARBOUR, president of Student Body

YOUTH — A new station is on the air! May your script be beautiful and the con- tact faultless. In signing off, I extend a personal good wish to everyone; and may you receive guidance always. Sincerely, BETTE LOU HOGG, president of Girls ' Division Radio is one of the greatest single influences in the development of education and religion today. Within a few years, I believe special programs of English, science, and languages will be broadcast in the class rooms for the students. Now in ending these three short years at Los Angeles High, I want to thank all of you for what you have done for me this past term. Sincerely, BILL MARSHALL, president of Boys ' Division To make a program a complete success, every one, whether playing a major or minor part, must co-operate freely. The success of our program this term was due largely to your co-operation, and I am deeply grateful to you for giving me the opportuni- ty to play a part. Sincerely, KI T HAMBLY, president of Girls ' Senior Board What is a more valuable contribution to the promotion of a common understanding among all peoples though they may differ in race, color, and creed than radio? We. the graduating and advancing students, should be comparable to the radio in our capacity as exponents of high ideals we have developed at Los Angeles High. Sincerely, ED JONES, president of Boys ' Senior Board
