As every family has its own in- dividual characteristics, so also each home room is distinct- ive and different from any other. The members of each unit are like the members of one large family, and as such, share each others joys' and sorrows. The spirit of brotherly and sisterly love prevails in the home rooms, and When one member of this family is honored the whole room feels the pride that would be felt in the pupil's own home. This book, therefore, is really a home room issue, featur- ing the organizations, activities, and pictures of the differ- ent rooms. We have also endeavored to honor our A9 girls and boys who are leaving McKinley tolcontinue storing up knowledge and improving their intellects for their life work. We trust that they will always carry on , and never weary of the struggle to Seek the Heights . The members of the Trail staff are also worthy of men- tion because of their untiring efforts to make their school paper worth while. They have done consistently good Work on the Trail, and have worked faithfully on the special edi- tions, such as the Wail and the Literary Editions. The same staff also contributes their best efforts to this issue of The Purple and Gold .-Kathryn Ritchie, B9. K 7 1 , 5, ,, .

R55 MIL, G- JE , QC 0 The McKinley Trail Staff The members of the Trail staff have endeavered to live up to The Trail Platform in their management of the McKinley school paper during the past semester. They have aimed each week not only to publish a paper containing news of the school, but also to make that paper the voice of the students, through which the ideals of McKinley might be expressed. The spirit of the Trail staff is not selfish. Those who help to get it out receive no reward except for the joy of their work and the honor of their positions. The highest ambitions of the Trail staff are em- bodied in their platform: To stimulate the Spirit of Brotherhoodg To uige Courtesyg To uplift the Truthg To promote the Love of the Reautifulg To encourage Economy: -and To further School Activites. The motto of McKinley is Seek the Heights , and to uphold that ideal the Trail workers have striven. How well they have succeeded may be judged only by the approval of their readers, whom the mem- bers of the staff hope they have pleased.

We were told to take the elevator, but they have so many 1t's hard to find any che of them. We admit that it would be easier to take the elevator than to walk up to the cactus gar- den, where they serve ice cream. We don't find any of the cheerful service that the A9's advertise in the Trail that they will give us. The student. body, represented by Elvin Brickly, greeted us in the auditorium. They call it and , but we think that is very disrespectful. Mr. Brown, the prin- cipal, gave us a hearty welcome, which cheered us greatly, but as soon as we left the auditorium our spirits fell because the darling A9's called us scrubs again. The Trail is the paper published by McKinley. We have all resolved that when we are A9's we will be editors-in-chief of that wonderful paper. lt's a shame they allow those cynical A9's to run it, when we. the B'7's, could do quite well. When We're A9's we'll show 'em. They have a Board of Control. Wonder what boards they control. Trafiic boys and girls are our natural enemies. If we run up the stairs or go up on the wrong side, they make us walk up nn what they call the right side. Oh. opera chairs for the auditorium! We're real grown up's at las... Our noses are high up in the air, and we have learned to answer right back to thou who call us scrub: they can't get the best of us. We had an aud. call celebrating the new chairs and the new Acme Motion Pic- ture Machine. We think it's the best machine that's made, or that will ever be made. We saw pictures of Theodore Roosevelt given by the student body. Heard the wonderful Jubilee Singers. Oh, my. but we were thrilled! We had an ideal Hall-:Vween party for ten cents. Parties and parties galore! The Penny Drive is here. Many who usually buy suckers are putting their pen- nies into the box. This tcrm's almost over. Hurrah! We're A7's now! We can tease the scrubs! Orutorical contest on United States Constitution held. Valentine parties enjoyed. The Puppet show, Snow White, was given Friday, the 9th of May. The McKinley song books are ready. The new shop is started. It is to cost 5523 400, and will contain perfectly equipped shops for wood work, reed work, home mechanics, electricity, and auto mechanics. Motherfs Day is celebrated, S'hool Mast,er's banquet held Saturday, M-ay 10, 1924. Inferfsting program given. The B8 term is not very interesting, just one day's work after another. but it soon passes, .and now we are A8's. Nothing exciting this term until March 4. when we heard the Presidenifs ln- augural address over radio. It was quitea scnsation. Radios were lent to the school by shops in the vicinity of Mr-Kin'ey. The f'oz-al parade was held, and McKinley had a wonderful float. lt was decorat- ed in Purple and Gofd, and carried those who took part in the play, Joseph, the Interpreter . We likfd the A9 play, Daddy Long Legs , and we are thrilled with the thought of being B9's at last! We are now rivals of the A9's. We're determined to become the best A9 class yet. There were interesting HaIlowe'en and Thanksgiving parties and programs. Each grade presented an entertainment in the auditorium during this term, and every one was he'ter than the one before, alhough the first ones couldn't be beaten. Si'as Marnerf' given by the graduating class was a great success. The acting and costumes made it a play long: to be remembered but even as we watched this pro- duction we said to our nefghbors. Wait ti'l you see US when we give our class play. Well. here we are A9's with all the scars gone that we received in the battle- fields nf scrubdom. How we do delight in teasing the scrubs! We should devote a whole book to the activities of this important term of a most sip...'ificant class. There have been inierestimz programs in the auditorium. a thrilling operetta, May Day festivities. track meets, Field Day exercises, Penrod , the class play-the season's biggest hit. and all sorts of ohev' exciting events. We had everyone curious over the re- sult of the A9 meet'ng. We tc-'d scrubs our colors were black and blue: they believed it. We had our pictures taken for the Purple and Gold, and now we are more than ever interested in that little semi-annual. We have wonderful class officers, b'autiful class colors, and everything befitting such important nersonages as this A9 class contains. When we get to senior high school, we intend to show them what kind of material McKinley 'urns out. We are truly sorry to leave McKinley, our school that has meant so much to us. and Fore so much for us. We hope to repay the teachers for their efforts in our behalf, by making the most of the foundation they have given us. And now, though it grieves us, dear McKinley, we must say adieu.-Margaret Thomas. fVilFi-- Graduation Class of S'Z6 HOME ROOM 10 fCont'd.J Eldon Faussett-Service and attendance certificates, attendance pin, Trail man- ayfer.

L57 Princess Chrysanthemum, Outstanding Semester Event Three splendid performances of the operetta, Princess Chrysanthemum , were met with great approval when they were given on the afternoons of May 5th and 6th, and on the evening of May 7.

Final tests for both studies and foot- ball werc drawing near. Jimmie Adams was one of the best football players on the school team, and he was also good in his studies. In the last few weeks, however, instead of studying he would rush out to join the boys in football practice. In the evenings, he found that a tired body was a great drawback to an active mind. He would try to concentrate on his studies, but his mind refused to respond to his desire to study. Jimmie felt that he was doing wrong to neglect his school work, but he argued that his team could not do without him. Hiis school might lose the final game in the series of games that were to determine the championship! With this thought to justify him, Jimmie continued to give all his time and thought to preparing for the final game. Just two days before the game was to be played, a summons from the oiiice startled Jimmie to the realization that he was failing in his studies. The principal warned him that unless he gave his time to picking up the work he missed he would be unable to gradualte with his class. That night Jimmie went home feeling very despondent. He knew that after all, his studies counted more than the game. As he argued with himself, he recalled the lines his mother had taught him to say: I am master of myself. I have strong will power. I know what is right. I want to do right. I will do right. Repeating this 'to himself had been the means of keeping strong when temptation assailed him on many occasions. Jimmie studied his lessons that evening, and another thing he did was to tell the boys he had decided to drop out. They protested, but he hurried off before he began togweaken in his resolve. Needless to say, Jimmie graduated with high standing in all his studies, and what was of great satisfaqtion to him, his team won the game which made his school the football champions. Jim- mie learned a little lesson from this game. He began to realize that no maftter how important a person may feel himself to be in any organization, there is always some other person who can fill his place. Jimmie's father understood what a sacrifice his boy had made in giving up his place on the team to win out in hiis studies, and because he had done the better thing the father presented him with a shiny new roadster with his initials engraved on the door. This gift delighted the boy, but his greatest joy came from the realization that he had conquered himself by giving up pleasure for duty.-Kathryn. Ritchie, B9. L lVlCKinley's Beautiful Library l ' ff' m7iiUR LIBRARY is not only a useful place for all, but a llli, beautiful and restful retreat. 1 ' r ' - ly 'il What an attractive room! visitors have exclaimed 'elfrglll after looking around and seeing the flowers here and there which brigrhten up the library and make it so inviting, cozy, and beautiful. Books of all descriptions are in the lib1'ary and the visitor, if he stays long enough, will see many pupils come in to obtain them. The students who are so fortunate as to have a study period a1'e usually found in the library. It is quiet and comfortable there, and it is the place where I can best concentrate upon my studies, pupils have sincerely declared. Th ever-ready library assistants are there to help all in pro- curing the books wished, and Miss Domers is alway willing to as- sist also. There are books of all kinds stored upon the shelves:-books on educational subjects and iiction. There are also magazines, pamph- lets, ieference books, encyclopedias, and dictionaries. The McKinley Library is a place to be proud of, and McKinleyites show their appreciation of it by keeping it clean and quiet as possible.-Huslm Ozar, A9.

Doing her bit, as others do Burdened, yet without a sigh She follows along her weary path, Nearing her goal, as time goes by. Near her hovers an angel fair Guarding her from evil away Keeping her wholesome, pure, and sweet, Making her always happy and gay. Trouble, naughty little sprite, Hover not near this pure heart, Making hours sad and dl-ear Making happiness depart. Yet at times the school gil-l's heart Finds its own little trials: Sinks into sadness and despair Thinking of the afterwhilcs. But when some kindly spirit comes To bring glad tidings to her ears, See her brighten up again, See her wipe away her tears? When in need, she izropes her way To some kindly heart, so dear: Willing always to allay Giving comfort, and beaming cheer. In this spirit free from care Onward xzoes the school girl's soul, Happy hearted, yet with care Slowly working out her goal. HOLEE RKJOM .. THIRTY-THREE THE BEE HIVEV Motto: No Drones in This Hive.

Room Seventeen Loves You even more. -Edna Thompson. A .17 HOME ROOM THREE Home Room 3 has a group of boys Who have the right spirit to- ward both their school and their teachers. We are all 'trying to make ours the best room in the school. Day by day we are doing little things that may mean big things later for our group of boys. We try to keep our room neat and clean. When we go to our lockers, we go quietly so we will not disturb anyone. We try to be kind to each other and to Mrs. Youngs, our home room teacher. We want to be good, and we study hard so we can be promoted to higher grades. We are glad to be here and we Want to do our best in every way. When we Hrst came to McKinley this term we did not know each other, nor did we know how to behave in junior high school, but now we are getting better every day and hoping to improve our school. We are all interested in our work and hope to become good Mc- Kinleyites.-Rccleigh Pratt, Edward Levy, and Harolcl Manners. We are building our future, and as the poet Glenn Ward Dresbach has expressed tlte thought so well, We quote from his poem, The Builder : How great will be the thifng that he builds? Not quite so great als his dreams ai-re g-rautg Not quite so high as his hopes are high. A1141 long he must build and wait. But the glory is, if he builds what he cfm, That all the while he -is IJ'll'l:ZlZ'i'I'1g a MAN. -1,-.- HOME ROOM TWELVE B'7's though we are, we cherish the thoughtof beingMcKinleyites, and try in each and every way to be true and loyal to our school. We came to McKinley from many SCDUOIS and were given a hearty greeting by our principal, Mr. Brown, and our new teachers. And with the welcome given us by all the boys and girls, we were not strangers long. We hope to greet the newcomers next term as heartily as we were greeted. We are a happy and enthusiastic group and have developed a surprising amount of school spirit during our brief stay at McKinley. We are nearly one hundred per- cent for the Trail and season tickets. All who are subscribers for the Trail have said it is the best twenty-five cent school paper printed. In ordzr to conduct a better classroom and carry on activities in the school, we decided to have a. class organization, dividing the duties among the officers and committees. A good selection was made by choosing Noel Haynes, president: Anna Owen, vize-president: William Hicks, secretary, and Alberta Anderson, treasurer. They have served us well. Among the various activities we are composing a book called, Character and Conduct. 'Ihnre are twelve virtues we are striving for in order to make us better Mcliinleyites as well as good citizens. We observe one rule each week and try om' best to live up to it. Class Room .12 has already won the reputation of being an industrious group and we hope throughout our three years' stay at McKinley that we can retain this honor and lie an example for other newcomers. .5 HOME ROOM TWENTY-SIX Although Home Room 26 is a B7 class, we have made a pretty fine start in the right direction. We are proud of the fact that our room was 10015, both for the trail and the season tickets. We have decided to use as our motto One Hundred Percent in Everything . It may not be possible at all times to keep our grades up to this standard, but having this as an aim will inspire us to work harder. We can also aim to become 10092, in all school activites, and perhaps we may become 100W American citizens. It is said Not failure, but low aim is crime : hence we are aiming high, and trust we will not fail. Our officers are as follows: president, Alfred Lang vice-president, Isadore Kaplan: secretary, Irving Parker. When we say push , you pull! If you will use this rule, You'lI know just how to fix What's said next of Room 26. Crispus Wright-never wrong. Lawrance Doran-ladies' man. Marie Lyde-always present, never late.

HOME RGOM THIRTY-SEVEN , V The members of Home Room 37 have taken as their example the ever busy and industrious ant, a sage little creature, indeed. The ant toils from the first peep of spring until the close of fall, and from early morning light until the coming of night to prepare for the needs of the future. We do well to follow, this example, and store up knowl- edge while we are in the springtime of life, so we may have something to draw on when school days are over.. The method the ant uses in his work is also worthy of following. He does his work bit by bit, and stores his food crumb by crumb, and there is no loafing on the job. We must make each day count for something accomplished, even though it be only a small task, for in this way we build the ladder by which we rise from the lowly earth to the vaulted skies. We have two members who have already shown that they are the right kind of workers, and they were awarded with A's in all their studies. These successful workers are Tirossie Blanchard and Mary Terada. We are proud of these members of our room, and we all want to try for the same high record. Our room is organized, and the officers are: president, James Jordeng vice-president, Norma McFarland, secretary, Genevieve Mc- Dowell. Our mo-tto is When you do a thing, do it well. We will surely become good McKinleyites if we live up to this motto, and always remember the lesson the busy little ant teaches us. The cmt's life is a lesson, the moral is good, If you live without fzvorlc, you 'must live without food. HOME ROOM FIFTEEN ' V . ' 1, l'l'li.l l ' Q.. Q if wie. , - '7- 6 ' 3' Y- .

The pro- yxrnm will be announced by Mrs. Tornquist, the regular announcer for this station. The first speaker on the program is Od,ssa Garrett, talking on the aims of H. R. 15. We aim to be true Mcliinleyites, to make our room the best in the school, to obey the rules, and to cooperate with our teachers. Miss Ophelialu. Williams is now at the microphone. The BT's of Radio Station H. R. 15 are a happy and cheerful lot. They want to play fair and square in the game of Education, and they hope to be winners, so they may be a credit to their school station, and to the chief announcer, Mr. Brown. Aurclia Daniels will now favor us with zu few remarks. We are trying our best to be loved by all the teachers of McKinley. We are willing to work hard to prove to them that we are the rrost industrious B7's in the whole school. We rank second now in mathematics, and we are hoping soon to rank first. The next number is a monofog by Julian Ellis. When we started this station in February, 1926, we were afraid to move, but we are rapidly overcoming our timidity. We selected as our oflicers the following: president, Eloise Johnson: sec- retary, Thelma Turner: and treasurar, Anna Dunham. This is the first program this station has offered, but we trust it will he but the beginning of many successful ones to be presented during the time we spend at McKinley. The concluding number will be a poem, Give US Girls , selected from an ex- change, and recited by Mary Lee Moore. As this station is composed entirly of girls, the poem is especially npporpriate. Give us girls, Girls whose love is in sport, Fresh, frce and frank- Girls of thought and reading, Girls of power in leading- The nution's welfare spreading, Girls of faith and not fiction, Girls of lofty aim in playing- Give us girls to play the game- Give us GIRLS. Radio HR15, McKinley Junior High School, is now signing off until the next issue of The Purple and Gold. ' HOME ROOM TWENTY-FIVE We're B7's of Room 25 and we came to McKinley only a few months ago. Many of us were strangers to each other then, for we repre- sent a number of the Los Angeles elementary schools. Some of us came from Vernon Avenue, some from Forty-Ninth Street, some of us came from Trinityg others from Wadsworth. We are proud of these schools from which we came, but we are true McKinleyites now. We are glad to mak: one 'more step iorwaid, and uc still look ahead to other up- ward steps. We have not remained strangers. Many of our best friends are numbered among our classmates. Not only did we come from other schools, but many of us are from other states in the Union scattered between Maine and Wash- inton, Texas and North Dakota. We also have three foreign nations represented in our class. Two of our members were born in Toronto, Canada. One of our girls was born in Russia during the war-time days. She does not remember those terrible days, but her parents still tell her stories about them. One boy in our class was born in Ire- land, and came to America with his parents when he was a small boy. We represent a number of nationalities and races, chief among which are English and Jewish, but we are now all Californians and Ameri- cans and we are proud of our opportunity to grow up under the Stars and Stripes. We have two classmates who have already travelled to foreign lands. One boy from our class has spent some time in Mexico, while another has spent six months in Japan. We are all ambitious to travel. We are beginning even now to think about our life work. Some of us already have mede plans, although we may change our minds be- fore we are grown. We have members who want to be musicians. and are practicing long hours on the piano, violin, or clarinet. Others want to be brick-masons, mechanics, engineers, printers, doctors, den- fists, cr teachers. Whatever we become, it is our wish to be useful and helpful. We intend to use our time now so that we may learn how to he gcod citizens of our school, our community, our state, and our nation. HOME ROOM FOURTEEN Since our entrance to McKinley as B7's when we were .told fairy stories of roof gardens and elevators. we have learned much, but we still have much to learn. The pupils of Home Room 14 stand for honesty, loyalty, courtesy, and thrift. We have a pleasant room which we try to keep clean and neat, and we have a home room teacher who is deeply interested in us and willing to help us when we need help. On our blackboard we have a deportment chart on which is kept a record of our conduct. The room is divided into teams, and the team which has the highest record in conduct at the end of the week has its banner hung: up in the front of the room. We get special gold marks if we do a kind or very thoughtful deed: a red mark if we are thrifty and deposit money in our home room bank: and we are given a green mark if we read stories in any of our classes when we should be studying or if we receive library notices for overdue books. Most of the time we are hon- est enough to put these marks after our names ourselves. We like this merit system because it he'ps Lis to improve our conduct. On Monday we study Conduct and Manners, and we have learned how to act in the auditorium, in the street car, and at the table. We sometimes have plays Un Fridays we have our home room meetings, parties, and pleasure reading. We have a reading club in our room and we exchange books of our own. Many of us have hobbies like collecting stamps, coins, minerals, pictures- and studying birds and animals. We have a home room bank, and every day we try to save a little, instead spending our money foolishly on candy. VVe have learned many thrift rhymes and have written some ourselves. Clyde Martin is our president: Anna Weichsl, vice-president, Rudolph Wilson and Bobby Yoakam, our bankers: Lois Mullins, our Trail reporter and William Scanlan, Trail manager. We are loyal to our home room and to our teachers, and we hope we can improve a little each day we are at McKinley.-Milton Klein and James Lu Valle, AT. - HOME ROOM ELEVEN QL! The members of Home Room 11 consider themselves fortunate in having such a pleasant room for their home. It is an art room, and is prettily decorated in gray and orange. The flowers and pictures also add to the attracgiveness of the room, and our teacher, Miss Clapp, does all she can to keep the atmosphere cheerful for us. Our aim is to carry out the art of the hand, the art of the head, and the art of the heart. We believe if our hands are busy, brains active, and our hearts are seeking to do kind deeds, we will be doing our bit towards adding to the McKinley spirit. Our room is organized into a club, the officers of which are as follows: president, Carl Langley, treasurer, Margaret Wert, Trail repcrter, lJoro,hy Meyers. The club exisls for the purpose of entertain- ments, and for the good we can do our fellow students. NVe pay a small amount each week as dues. and the money is used to buy flow- ers for the sick, and to help pay for the parties we give. This year we have enjoyed parties at Christmas time, Hal1owe'en, and on Valentine's Day. We are proud of some of the members of our room who have taken part in school activities. Margaret Wert, a citizen-scholarship ping Edward Sovinski is stag-e manager for the school, and Libero Lavezzi is on the Traffic Squad.

Ultimately,-we feel sure we will graduate as credits to the school and as honors to our class. ' ln spite of our besotting sin, and what was referred to as our chief aim, we are making considerable progress in overcoming our shortcomings. All the members have signed a pledge card, and we are striving to keep our pledge. Some of the ideals in- cluded in the pledge are: not to talk in nor out of the home room unless absolutely necessary: never to criticize a person behind his back: to use no foul language: to tell the truth always: to keep our lockers and our room neat: to refrain from using cosmetics: io concentrate on our studies, and to have no story books near until our work is finished. This pledge was written by a committee selected from the members of the room, and all were willing to sign it, and to try to live up to what it embodies. We have races between the girls and boys in attendance, neatness, speed, spelling, and scholarship. VVe watch our report cards to see who wins. This makes keen com- petition and all arc eager to do their best. Our officers are: Shirley Denos, president: Lois Deinert, vice-president: Joseph Mills, secretary: and Helen Myers, treasurer. Home Room 40 is flying fast- It's running' at a fearful speed: Everyone tries to be on time- Te Work,--To Win, this is our creed.

S ecretary-Treasurer Grace Chapman ....................,...,,.........,...,........ Trail Manager As pupils of Home Room 6 we are proud to say, even though we have been at McKinley only one year, that We have the real McKinley spirit. We are Seeking the Heights, and are sure to find them as we have made a very good start. The record of Room Six is as follows: Last semester, two scholarship certificates, two scholarship pins, and three certificates for school service were awarded, also our room captured the Thrift Banner for almost half the term. Charles Ander- son, former representative of the Board of Control, came from this room. Six girls took part in the operetta, a number of girls were chosen as squad leaders in gymnasium, and one of our boys is on the traffic squad. Among our social times were Hallowe'en and a Valentine party- At Christmas time, ins ead of having a party for ourselves, we joined Room 3 in providing Christmas gifts for 'two needy families. In the spring, we went on a picnic to Griffith Park and those who were pres- ent did not regret their going. We have enjoyed working with Miss Durfy, our class teacher, and with our other teachers who have helped us through difficulties and shared our victories. So here's to Room 6, and may we push on to greater heights next year for the honor of ou1' school.-Sara. Cline. 1,-..

HOME ROOM FORTY-'FOUR This is a home room for A7 boys. The room is organized, with president and other officers. Recently, the organization has under- taken a plan for self-government in which every boy takes part. Under the president, Vernon Rose, are four leaders, chosen for citizenship qualities. Each leader is in charge of one-fourth of the class and checks up on the progress of each boy in his squad for two weeks. After this time, in each squad a new leadier is selected, the former one taking his place again in the same group. The following boys have already given fine service as leaders: Robert Christy, Ellis Crandle, Luke Latine, Alfred Licalsi, Delmas Loupe, Henry Parry, Portland Taylor, and Mack Witherspoon. These boys do what they can to influence the other boys in order that each may prepare himself for future lead- ership. The boys, of course, are interested in athletics and are on teams be- longing to the Bush League. Vernon Rose's team holds first place. In running, Murphy Guidry and Delmas Loupe do good work, the former is one of the best in the entire A7 class. There is some artistic talent in the class. Thomas Fabregat and Victor Bruno, inseparable pals, play in the McKinley Orchestra. Delmas Loupe and Vo1'die Harrison play several musical instruments. Dave Graham is a clever cartoonist, and Robert Christy is interested in clay mod-eling. Recently, when the A7's voted for nominees for new members of the Board of Control, the boys were pleased to note that three of the nominees had at one time been members of Home Room 44, and that one of the boys was finally elected. HOME ROOM TWENTY . ., Home Room 20 is fitted up for a history class room, and we are very much interested in the pictures and maps used in the history classes. Our home room teacher, Mrs. Erickson, teaches history and citi- zenship, and she has helped all the Af7's to make a creed. We met in the auditorium where we had an opportunity to say what our class should have for an aim. Then we studied other creeds, and each A7 home room decided what it wanted. Mrs. Erickson put the ideas together, and then called a meeting of the presidents of all the home rooms. Mr. Brown and the vice-princi- pals met with us, and they approved of the work of the A7 students- First We determined OU1' goal, and all agreed that it should be Succe.ss . Then we decided upon the qualities that make for Success which may be developed in our school life. One of our home room boys, Gail Stimson, suggested that we draw a picture of steps leading to Success, and write on these sqteps the qualities We need in order to climb to our goal. Two other boys in our room, Julius Mitchell and Halaria Ramas, drew the picture. They have ihe doors to Success open, and a light above 'the doors to guide the A7's to their goal. The light sayfs Education , and rays of light shine down to help A7's understand whalt each step really means. The first step is Obedience to Law. This means there are laws governing our body, mind, and spirit. We want to be obedient to the laws of health, train our minds, and become useful citizens. The light of Education will show us the way, and our first step to- ward Success will be to obey the laws. The other steps we are climb ing are Honesty, Cleanliness, Kindness, Courtesy, Fair-Play, Industry, Thrift, Self Control, Trustworthiness, Loyalty, and Service. When we are older We will probably make a still better creed. -Lucille Smith., A 7. - i HOME ROUM THIRTY-FOUR In McKinley's halls, 'neath the sign THREE-FOUR, The Ladder Club has its G. H. Q.

HOME ROOM, THIRTY The Young Americans is the name of the club in Home Room 30. We have had this club ever since we emtered McKinley. We are now B8's and we hope to keep our club until we leave this school. The name means that we all try to be true Americans like the people who fought for our independence in the early colonial, times. To be true Americans we must develop qualities that make for- good citizen- ship. We are striving to grow into manhood and womanhood with all the ideals that are highest and best. Our motto is Play the game fairly and squarely , and We all try to live up to it. The officers for our B7 term were: president, Kermit Walkerg vice-president, Donothy Duggan 3 secretary, Dorothy Wismar. We also had a program committee whose duty it was fto plan programs for the club. The A7 officers were: president, Billy Clauderg vice-president, Dorothy Duggang and secretary, Mildred McQuillan. Our present B8 officers are: president, Harold Jones: vice-pres- ident, Jack Firmg secretary, Eleanor Moran: and we also have a pro- gram committee. We are proud of our two members on the Board of Control, Con- suelo Rivera and Billy Clauder. We hope there will be some one from our room on the Board cf Control as long as we are in McKinley. We also hope to keep our hundred percent record in all school activities. We stand for loyalty, good citizenship, truthfulness, cleanli- ness, and trustworth1ness.- Mildred McQuillfm and Elemzor Mowm. Home Room Thirty is the place Where everyone helps set the pace. VVe always 'ry to do thu: best. And ever aim to beat the rest. We always try to P'ay the Game, And if we lose, we'll try again. HOME ROOM FIFTY-NINE U-,-J At the beginning of February, 1925, We were all scrubs' Our first home was in ihe Boys' Cafeteria. We didn't mind the tables and chairs, but we all agreed that desks When we were A7's we moved to is where we now live and where we We are now B8's. Some of our ones have taken their places.

Here we spent one happy semester. 'n ' ' A . One day after vacation when We were A7's Miss .Hobart, .our Home Room teacher, had a surprise for us. This was that we were to have a room inithe new Science Building. , , Now that we are B8's we are still domiciled in this lovely 1'oo1n, and are proud to say that it is still in fine condition. , Ever sincewe were B7's we have been' an aspiring -class. We have been trying for the Thrift Banner, and now we have itqindefinitely. We have held -first place in spelling and hope 'to keep it. In the English test we ranked third, almost tieing for second place, and in the fu- ture tests we hope to win firstplace. 'In English we have organized a literary club which meets every' Friday. In this club we are privileged to develop our talents for poetry, recitation, and essay writing. -' ' 2 Nor are we lacking in honors. . One of our number, Ramell LaC0uer won a scolarship as an A7, and two others, Seymour Levenburg' and Rose Stone were on the honor roll after ithe first ten weeks as B8's. We' also have an attendance campaign, to maintain our regular at- tendance. The captains of the two sides are Ruby Nelson and Lucille Bergelin. - . 1 Miss Hobart is our science teacher also, and with her help we have organized a club, call-ed The 'Busy Bees. ' 'It meets every other Tuesday. ' ' N u , ' 'In school service and school activities no home room can excel us. Three students work in the attendance office, four in the library, and several boys are printers. ,We are merry, active, and loyal Mcliinleyites, and always hope to be a credit to our SCh0O1.f-Fll7171.fU Symssnr. ' Lx . -- t' Q. HOME ROOM FORTY-ONE One might ihink that the history of Room 41 is the same as that of any other class room in McKinley. Of course, when we came to McKinley in the winter of 1925. we were greeted with sticks and straps as were all other scrubs. We went through that usual experiencejn the auditorium when we were assigned to our home rooms. Then we went wandering around like lost sheep for a day or so. After a year and a half in McKinley, however, we begin to feel ourselves not just an ordinary class room, but one that can really do things in a way all our own. We have organized a club, with the following officers: President, Cecelia Vander- boschg vice-prtsizlent, Joe Domenico: secretary, Charles Jablonslcy: treasurer, Gladys Henderson: Trail reponer, Albert Faulkner. also have a jury that tries any prob.em in had conduct that comes up in the class room. We hold our meetings on Friday of each week, and we always enjoy a good prcgram, games connected with our school work, or something that makes us proud of our club. The imporlant events oi' this year have been a Hallowe'en party, a Christmas party, and a picnic in South Park. All of these parties have been real successes. and have added much io the enjoyment of our school life at McKinley. One of our chief aims is to create in our classroom a spirit of eo-operation with our teachers and of pride lor our school. In order to do this we know that we must keep up our grades to the best of our ability, and must try in every way we can to make ourselves better citizens of McKinley. We admit that we have much room for improvement yet, as is probably true in most class rooms, but we hope by the time we are A9's to leave McKinley with fiying co ors and a standing that will rank us as one of the best rooms in the school.- Gladys Henderssn, Sidney Butow. HOME ROOM THIRTY-TWO THE GOOD SHIP. 32 Life is a sea, and we shift from boat to bout, A good boat, a bad boat, but always afloat. Just now we are workers on the good ship 32, And each sailor strives hard his very best to do. We are bound for a port called Wis- dom, Somewhere in the Knowledge King- dom. Our sailors are called the Go-Get- ters, All workers, and very few fretters. Our motto's a good one, you bet What we go after we get. Bet we are ever Seeking the Heights. The hardest tasks are our best delights. In our crew we've a Literary Club, And on the whole ship you canlt find a Dub. The meetings we hold every Friday A.M. And all can truthfully say they en- joy them. Our Library, it is but small, But a storehouse of knowledge for all. From the books on the shelves We all just help ourselves. In our classes we'll show you, too, There are no failures in the crew of 32. When the going gets rough That's when we show our stuff. Vile have our own Judge and a Jury, Justice is dealt in a hurry, If our department is not of the best, It's detention, and we don't sit and rest. Mrs Bangertcr, our pilot true. Guides safely the good ship 32. We have not run upon any rocks as Yet, But we're on the lookout though, you het.-Virfzinia O'Toole. i....1..---,,..-..l.- HOME ROOM FOR,TeY,.lHREE .,...- . f . ' l- When we first came to McKinley as B7's we were greeted as scrubs VVe didn't mind that, because it is the title given to all new- ,comers and even the mighty seniors were at one time scrubs After being more or less ini-tiated into the school, we found our ,way to the auditorium, where we where introduced to Mrs. Struthers and Mr. Brown. After staying a while in the library, we were conducted to our new home room. It did not take us long to become aquainted with our surroundings, and with our teacher, Miss Brode, who has been with us ever since, and whom we hope to keep as long as we are in McKinley. . - ' , I The motto of our home room is Work to win, to conquer, and to master. Our officers larez Mary Giordano, president: Victoria Rice, vice-presiclentg Angelina Sutera, secretaryg and Rosa Canson, treas- urer. On Fridays we enjoy courtesy plays, thrift programs, or class meetings. ' . ' - ' A We also have a Camp Fire group in connection with our home room. Among our many enjoyable times together, was the hike to Little Griffith Park and Arroyo Seco which will long be remembered. At the first Council fire held at our guardians home, three of our members, Ada Bell Rivers, Grace Hubbard, and Isabel Cordero, received National Honorsf We were all proud of these girls. At the second Council fire meeting held at the home of Victoria Rice, Miss McGee, one of the leading guardians, initiated Onedia Williams into the First Rank. Then at the last meeting which was held at the home of Margaret Jones, Victoria Rice and Ada Bell Rivers received their First ,Rank also. Our organization encourages us to think of others. ,.Wh6H'01f1' members are sick, we send flowers, letters, and various other things to help them pass away the long hours. At Christmas time we dress- ed dolls for the General Hospital. We find much happiness in striv- ing to make others happy.-Mu'rgcm'et Jones. - ' HOME ROOM FIFTY Home Room 50 which has a distinction of being one of the boys' class rooms of McKinley, has made a name for itself in many ways, but it has scored especially high in the track meet. All the boys in the class room who took part carried away some points. Wilbur Triggs tied the school record in 'the '75-yard dash in 8.5 seconds. Willie Mingleton, better known as Ming, of Class Room 50, won the high-jump in the track meet between the B8's and A8's. He jumped 5 feet, 3 inches. He also ran the 50-yard dash in the track meet.

We liked bo romp and madly run As every scrub has always done. But all this happened in the hall Where all the teachers used to call, Come hack and try it over, son! And try to walk instead of run, Arithmetic is an awful' thing Especially when we'd like to sing! 'lfhe day may be long :ind perhnpsphof: But still we boys aresa happy lot. In English, Work jgakes: the pliiie' of O ' fun. T2 We read and write, .till our work is done. 1 The next period is great! Then we may run a race, This makes us warm, and gives color to the face. After this we go to shop Where we hammer, saw, and knock. The next period over, we go to lunch Where we have a chance to sit down with the bunch. Then we have our home room once more Where there's no time to think life a bore. For at our teacher's stern command We use our brains to beat the band. Home room teachers seem so cross But after all they're not. If if weren't for our teachers We'd he an awful lot! -Warren Edmon ds. H OME RO O M FORTY-FIVE We, the pupils of Home Room 45, are proud of all our boys and girls. We have many 'things to tell you, and the first is about our officers. Our president is Fannie Levine, and our other officers are as follows: vice-president, Carl Gallardog secretary, Jean Zippig treasurer, Violet Schaefferg book store representative, Agnes Mc- Laren. We also have a very efiicient pencil monitor, Aaron Isaac. We are A8's now, and hope we can stay wifth our present class- mates until we are lofty A9's. We are sorry that there are a few of our members you can't see in the class picture: Louise Critch- field, Ethel DeCuir, Agnes McLaren, Zailda Palmer, Willis Hunter, Aaron Isaac, and Grant Slater. Our club consists of many jolly pupils, It is named The Sixth Period Jolly Workers . We also have a motto, Citizenship- Our Aim . At present, we have two honor pupils, Sarah Weitz and Mary Hooksg we are hoping to have several more by the end of the term. We are proud that our room supplied two boys for the opcretta, Aaron Isaac and Grant Slater. ,Ever since we came to McKinley as B7's, we have had good times together. This year we have had three parties, One was a New Year's party, another was on Valentine' day, when each pupil received several valentines. On Hallowe'en, Miss Craig' seventh grade class invited our home room with Miss Whitacre's ninth grade class to a party in Room 24. All enjoyed this occasion very much. Our class tries to follow a systematic plan of helping one another during our many sixth periods together, We have shown the McKinley spirit during our two years here, and we hope to keep it up unftil we leave our beloved school, after which time we will endeavor to prove our- selves true McKinleyites. HOME ROOM ONE .iii Home Room 1 is a small class, and all girls. We try to have a nice friendly spirit among' the members of our class, and try to im- prove ourselves with Miss Alvarez's help. Our motto: Act always so the teachers and the other children will respect us. We gain respect by being honest, telling the truth, having lady-like conduct, doing well in our studies, being reliable at all times, being pleasant and happy, and always willing to serve our school. We did not like to study when we first came to McKinley. We did not know how. Now we are interested in our work and can spend the whole sixth period studying on our lessons. One of the aims of our room is to do our work so well that there will be no failures in any subjects. We will be B9's next September and we know that we will have to sit in an A8 room if we fail in even one subject. Miss Alvarez had a dream in which every one of us had to sit in A8 rooms as we all failed in a subject, so she had the only home room in the school wifh no pupils. We do not want her dream to come true so we are studying harder then ever. Our class room oflicers are: president, Violet Phillipsg vice- president, Clara Johnsong treasurer, Mayme Dunng Trail manager, Clara J ohnsong Trail reporter, Regina Cukierska.-Regina Cnlcierskca. . .... ... HOME ROOM FIVE The Sunshine Club was organized by the girls of Home Room 5, and it is all that its name implies. The meetings are conducted by the officers who are elected by the members. 'Ihe programs are varied and have proved both educational and en- iertaining. We have our social and literary programs and again we have devoted the time to an old-time spelling match, or even a test in English, mathematics, or social science. Ordinarily, these tests would lie considered hard work, but in the spirit of rivalry and fun, we have combined work with play and found it sport. Any subjfect beneficial to the students, and pertaining to the school, has been discussed here. This has given us a better conception of our duties and has enabled us to give loyal support to our school. That we are loyal McKinleyites is proved by the fact that nine out of our small class of twenty-five students are doing extra work for our beloved school. For sev-eral months we worked under the disadvantage of having many different substitute teachers, but at our own re- quest Mr. Brown made Us a Christmas present of Mrs. Myrick. We greatly appreciate the fact that we have been allowed to keep her. The days at McKinley are all foo short, but time cannot erase from our memory the happy hours spent there, nor the benefits derived from the Sunshine Club.-Mcwgie Morrin. A9. We smile to the happy, we smile to the sad. We smile to the Hood and we smile to the bad, We smile when the sun shines- we smile when it rains, We smi'e and we smile till we smile away pains. Our mission in life is to bring cheer to all, To drive away sadness, and joy lo install, T ' 'd t th . th 'k cl ih l n give ai o e weary, e sic , an .e ODE. And by brightening their lives. to bring Joy to our own, HOME ROOM FIFTY-ONE We, the pupils of Home Room 51, are very proud of our room in the Science Build- ing, where we have sunshine all day long. Our B7 and A7 terms were spent in the old bungalows, but we have had this pleasant room during the BS and A8 terms. Our teacher, Mr. Moores, brings insects, plants, and animals to our room, and his Science Dllllils also add to the interesting collection all through the term. Every term from the time we were B'Z's to the present, we have chosen officers for the class club. The officers this term are as follows: president, Jack Asaroi secretary, Lucy Denino: treasurer, Alice Spurgeon: Trail manager, Bernice Darms: and Trail reporter. Miriam Haas. Our meetings are held every Tuesday at which time we discuss matters of interest to the class. The chairman of the party com- mittee is Eugene Lockridge, and he chose as members of the committee: Lorina Sanserino, Mary Spencer, Louise Bertolotto, Fred Contreras, and Hyman Sedloif. The class has also chosen captains for the two sides of our attendance contest. The captains are Jack Asaro and Miriam Haas. Miriam's side is so far in the lead that everyone expects them to win. The losing side will have to give the winning side a party at the end of the term. We were 1002, for the term tickets both this term and last, and hope to keep up this record by being 100W for the Trail, the Purple and Gold, and any other publications the school may have while we are here.

When we were B7's, we lost our home room teacher, Mr. Woodrud. Miss Martin has been our teacher since that time, and she has endeav- ored to make our room a class to be proud of containing members who are real McKinleyites. Our first room was 22, from which we moved to 36a, where we showed our true spirit by becoming 100W for the Trail. We moved next to our present home room, where our B8 and A8 terms have been spent. There are twenty-seven pupils in our class, and among these are some fine athletes and school service workers. Helen Schramm and Martha Williams are libra1'y assistants, Evelyn Friedlander is an attendance office assistant, Arthur Moore is a traflic officer, and Morris Sedlof, program captain. We are proud of those who have made records in scholarship from our room. Evelyn Waggener, Martha Williams, and Helen Schramm received scholarship certificates. John Useem and Florida Fishbeck were awarded pins. Many of our members have made perfect attend- ance records, and have received certificates. Our class officers at present are: Evelyn Waggoner, who has been our president for two terms because of her fine ability, Helen Schramm, vice-presidentg Rosalie Schwartz, secretaryg Morris Sedloff. treasurerg Harry Dorskind, Trail manager, and Ruby Wolpers, Trail reporter. We have had many interesting social events, among them was a class hike. We are looking forward to two more successful terms such as those which have already passed.-Rosalie Schwartz. HOME ROOM FOUR In our beloved Home Room Four we are all put on our honor. When any one gets into trouble or does Wrong, we correct him our- selves and do not worry the odice or Mr. Wilson with our problems. In settling our difficulties, we use our organization which has oiiicers as in a court: judge, prosecuting attorney, defender, and bailiif. When a member is found guilty he is barred from the regular activities of the class, and has a special ofiicer to Watch over him until he proves him- self worthy to re-enter the organization. We have many fellows in our room who are doing special school service. Some are ushers in the auditorium, some are traffic boys, and others are stage helpers. One of our boys, Vitalio Avila, took a lead- ing part in the operetta, Princess Chrysanthemum , and we are all very proud of him. We also have some good athletes in our room for We have an indoor team, a basketball team, and several good handball players. We are all very happy in Home Room 4 and we try to improve it continually.-Elmore Taylor, Matthew Mwrmillion, Vitalfia Avila, C ourtesy R eliability.

A8's entered McKinley as B7 s. We think that we enjoy our room more because the enrollment is small, and because there are only girls. We try to keep a high standard for attend- ance. and to be dependable always. Our time in the home room is spent in studying, listening to reports on assigned subjects, and trying to improve ourselves in citizenship qualities. Occasionally we have a social time which is greatly enjoyed. One of these events was a. luncheon we had together, the :rain dish of which was real Italian spaghetti prepared and served by two of our Italian girls. As the result of a contest in our room, those of us who were on the Winning side are looking forward to a party planned by the losers. We are very proud to be members of McKinley Junior High School, and we think cur pride is due pnrtfy to cur home room spirit, which is inspired by our home room tracher, Miss Morrell, and is one of happiness and friendliness. Our class has made a special study of E. M. Brainerd's poem, If for Girls, and it has proved so helpful to us, that we are quoting two verses of it here: If you can be a girl and glory in it, Because it is the place for you to till, If you can be a lady every minute, Yet take all sporting chances with a will: If you can hold your temper when you're ruffled, And force a smile when frowns are hovering near. Or keep the burning tongue of scandal mulfled By never telling anything you hear. If you can dream, yet sit not idly longing, Ur play with case, yet find some work to do, If you can still have faith when doubts are thronging And be the friend you'd have one be to you: 1 If you can love with all the soul that's in you And let the world no selfish motive see, If nothing less than what is best can win you You'll be the girl God meant for you to bel ,11- HOME ROOM FORTY-TWO ff' V ,K N Have you heard of The All Girls Club? Well, if you want to learn something about it, ask any of the girls from Home Room 42. It is a real club, with president, secretary, and treasurer. We have our meetings on Friday, the sixth period. The dues are a penny a week. It's a small amount almost nothing, isn't it? But it grows from pennies to nickles, dimes, and quartersg and when we have a dollar or more, we buy something worth while and make somebody happy. Have you noticed the girls of Home Room 42? Do they use rouge, lipstick, or too much powder? Are they tardy or ab sent unnecessarily? Do you see them chewing gum or making up in public? No. Do you know why? For one thing there's a contest on in their room. Every time a girl from 42 is caught disobeying the rules of the contest, two per- cent is taken off from the one hundred percent she starts with in the beginning. At the end of ten weeks the losing side gives a party in honor of the winners. D0n't you think this is a good way for us to learn to do the things we should do, for our own sake and to be good examples for some- body else, as well as to be true McKinleyites'!-Man-y Vosileff. Loyalty to our own school And courtesy, shall be our rule: Love for McKinley shall e'er be In all our hearts like honesty. -Rosie Medley. HOME ROOM SIXTEEN Give to the world the best that you have and the best will come back to you. This motto of Edward Bokis, the poor Dutch boy, who made good through sheer hard work, is also the motto of the B9's of Home Room 16, who hope to carry it with them through their en- tire school career and out into the world, and there, some day to at- tain success through its application. The members of this home room feel that under the patient guidance of Miss Adler, they have already achieved uccess on a small scale, being represented in the Boys' and Girls' Glee Club, Orchestra, Traffic forces, Book Store and Cafe- teria. Then, too, we are the proud possessors of some of the best scholarship students in the B9 class, among them, Carolyn Farring- ton, who has received citizenship-scholarhip pins three terms out of four. Nothing can succeed without organization, however, so we have formed a club in our home room and have chosen as president, Robert Schreckg as treasurer, Erma Neville, who Because of her ability and competency in that line has held the same office since her entrance to McKinley, and as Trail reporter, Jerry Fries. Through co-operation with our class advisers and our classmates, we hope and work to make our success increase as time goes on and become a loyal, democratic home room with high honors, high ideals, and good scholarship.- Florence Vcmna. - HOME ROOM THIRTY-NINE We, the studenls of Home Room 39 are proud to say that in al- most every activity going on in McKinley, at least one represents our class. We hope that we are not being unreasonably proud when we say that the only two A8 pupils who received scholarship pins last term are in our class. They are Eunice Muller and John Brewer. Those who earned scholarship certificates a1'e Cora Cirino, Harold Lew,s, Josephine Sirianni, and Josephine Poletto. We are also hon- ored by a Board of Control member, William Alvarado. Among our talented pupils we are not lacking in poets. Kathleen Clegg and Eunice Muller are especially gifted in this direciion. Eunice Muller has given many of her beautiful poems over the radio and has many times delighted our Friday Club with her poetry. Those in our class who helped to make the operetta a sglccess are Benito Gimeniz, Jack Gageby, William Alvarado, Evelyn Halbert, Lilly Pilcher, and Eunice Muller. Last but not least we sing praises of the talented song birds in our room who are in the Glee Clubs. They are as follows: Eunice Muller, Lillie Pilcher, Evelyn Halbert, and Jack Gageby. We also have a violinist of much ability who plays in the Orchestra. She is Josephine Sirianni. The1'e are others that we could mention who have contributed something to the credit of our class, but we have not space enough to do them justice. Among other hon- ors we are tied for second place in the Grammar placement test and we are striving to come to 'the op next time. Many of the interesting articles and poems which appear in The Trail have been written by some loyal student in our class. We hope when this is read, we willl be excused for our pride. We are one big family with Miss Green at the head and we all co-operate with one purpose in view, of being good and loyal citizens of McKinley, ever trying to Seek the Heights. -Beatrice G7'DSS77Lf!.71. . . HOME ROOM FORTY-EIGHT THE WILLIAMS FAMILY IN McKINLEY TOWN Walking along the boulevard in McKinley Town, I came upon the beautifu-I home of the Willliams family. They resided at No. 48 Science Bldg., McKinley. This remarkable family proved to be most interesting for the members were organized into a club with Burroughs Coiiin as president: Damon Daniel, vice-president: Adolph Weninger, treasurerg Helen Allan, secretary: and Lillie Cooperman, Trail re- porter. For the purpose of self-improvement the Williams family used a conduct chart. Each member was marked daily, according to his behavior. Some were proud of their record, but some were ashamed to have anyone look at theirs. All in the Williams family are not perfect, but Mrs. Williams is a good mother and hopes to reform them all. Some of the children in this family are very ambitious: there are to be his- tory professors, doctors, nurses, and stenographers galore. The appearance of the Willliams home was an important thing in the life of the Williamites. They had pretty pictures on the walls, and all were instructed to keep the house as neat: as possible. With so many children in the family and so much sewing to do, it was surprising how neat the house was kept. The family is large because there are so many first and second cousins living in this big home. They all live together happily and in harmony, each striving to make the most of himself, and to help the other members of the family. In this way they are bound to be a credit to themselves and to their eomrnuntiy. Just at this point, a bell roused me to the realization that it was time to pass to the next class, and to my astonishment, I found I had been dreaming about Home Room 48.-Dorothy Kinch and Louise Gonzales, .1i HOME ROOM NINTEEN In February, Spring of 1924, a ship called the S S Eversail sailed from the Grammar Schools to the McKinley Junior High School with pupils then known as seekers Among these pupils were the future McKinleyites. They were divided into different groups, but the group of Class Room Nineteen will be taken up. The commander-in-chief of the group was, and still is, Mrs. Bartlett. The captains were as follows: B7 Term ..........,......,..,..,.... Miss Shepherd B8 Term ...............,..................,. Miss Jones A7 Term. ................................... Miss Jones A8 Term ....,... t ...l..........,........ Miss Denton B9 Term ......,,.................,.......,.,.........,........,............... Miss Blanchard Little is known about the B7 term or Scrub Voyage Year of this group. During the second term or Maiden Voyage Year, the pilot was Julian Sparling. Within that year they took an imaginary trip to the Woodlands of California. During the B8 term or Secondary Voyage Year, Antonio Correa Hawaii was pilot, and they were under a good pilot, for not once did they go on the rocks. That year they were first over the top ' for The Trail. During the A8 term or Superstitious Voyage Year, the group was led under the careful guidance of their pilot, Bessie Riley. She was their pilot for only about half a term when she was swept over- board to anothr group. Assistant-pilot, Harriet Robertson, quickly jumped to the vacant wheel. If she had wavered, she too would have been swept overboard as the group began to sway and to decide on a new pilot: but she succeeded. During the B9 term or Self-guidance Voyage Year, they are under the guidance of a very good and successful pilot, Camillo Zippi. They all know that if they keep their good work up, they will, as they go into into the A9 term or Rulers' Voyage Year, have proved them- selves good McKinleyites.-Antonio C. Correa. ' .1t HOME ROOM TWENT,Y-NINE Q.. RJ As members of Home Room 29 we have tried to live up to our school motto, Seek the Heights. We have been successful in many things one of which is co-operation with our school and teachers. In trying to better ourselves, we have chosen as our motto, We ourselves the better serve, by serving others best . We are sure that we shall be able to live up to this, under the helpful guidance of Mrs. Rootham, our home room teacher and adviser. The officers of our class are: Harry Bruce, presidentg Marie Dawson, vice-presidentg Lucille Ritter, secretary and treasurerg Bessie Schvarz, Trail reporterg and Velva Giifins, Trail manager. We have two committees,-one on Thrift and one on Courtesy 5 they give reports every Friday, the sixth period. They show us many ways in which to save, and also point out how courtesy always pays. The chairman of the Courtesy committee is Lucille Ritter, and of the Thrift committee the chairman is Harry Bruce. Other members of these com- mittees are Bessie Schvarz, Velva Giffins, Carl Johnson, Helen May, Oriole Theed, and Morris Cohen. Some of our members are singers. Marie Dawson, Barbara Chapp, Oriole Theed, and Marion Kraft are in the Glee Club. As attendance office assistants, Bessie Schvarz, Merlyn Smith, Marian Kraft, Helen May, Rachel Jeruchemsohn, Etta Dunn, and Velva Giffms serve by collecting absence slips from the rooms in the Academic Building. We hope to become a class of A9's that our school will be proud of. Improvement from day to day is our aim.-Helen May and Lucille Ritter. f'?'i+ ME ROOM THIRTY FI l' 'fist' Perseverance, Service, and Loyalty to you, Dear McKinley , is our motto, to which we hold true Vernon, our president, is a fine athlete, The school record in running he easily beat. Charles is our vice-president, and he never does wrong. Dorline is our secretary, in her work she is strong. Cecelia, Trail reporter, is capable and helpful too. These officers are willing and eager to do. Vivian, is quiet, gracious, and fair, Miriam is shy, with dark eyes and black hair. Evelyn Salmon is witty, she's Irish, you know. Evelyn Garver, so demure, sweet smiles doth bestow. Our Ida is studious, and is loyal to right: And Raymond vxorks Algebra with all his might. Our Joe is quiet, but in the high jump, he's a star. Odessa, her record in courtesy will never mar. Zelma, so ambitious. has won our esteem, Willard studies hard, but smiles and roses can bring. Edward likes to sing better than work: Lester is on the traffic, and no duty will shirk. Dollie is modest, and vmrks hard to wing Katie is full of fun, and tries to make us grin. Richard is dependable, and always on time Sam Schwartz. a traffic officer, is faithful and true Herbert thinks deeply, and in his attitude is fine. Sam Kelly is a friend. of which there are few. Beatrice is full of pep, and works with will, Clara, so friendly, finds it hard to keep still. Fred is steady, and works hard on his books. Sarah, efficient, is learning what makes good cooks. Ellouise, though a newcomer, many friends has made Roberta and Rose have left us for the A9 grade. Donald, the last, to his friends is the best. We put him down here to give Raymond a rest. .I12rfffL.fVo-1 B i HOME ROOM THIRTY-EIGHT gf NFS.. v- S 7,53 79 . J I We, the B9 group of Home Room 38, were quite small upon our arrival at McKinley. How big the buildings looked to us! Older and wiser pupils told us that elevators were used in some of the buildings and we believed them. Now we see how green we 'must have been. Our home room teacher's name used to be St. John unftil she changed it to Sprenkle to avoid confusion in regard to the lock- ers. Pupils didn't know which Mrs. St. John really had charge of the lockers. Our A7 term proved better than our B7 term because we had learned to be better McKinleyites. One thing we did to make our room more cheerful was to bring pictures from magazines, which we made into posters for decorating our walls. Several other rooms followed our example. Every clay in every way we grew better and better in schol- arship and citizenship. Among other things, we formed a Citizenship Club, which has been the means of many helpful suggestions toward our being better citizens. Our room was honored by having Kenneth Cowles as B8 and A8 representative on the Board of Control, and at the present time many of our members are holding positions of trust in different de- partments throughout the school. Now we are on the home-stretch toward our goal at McKinley. Space will not permit me to tell of the wonderful development of the members of our home room as B9's. The only way to find out about us is to take a peep in Room 38 any sixth period. See for yourself how we delve into books after knowledge. Later on, look us over when we are A9's as the finished product of McKinley.-Mercedes Emzngeline Wright.
