. HOME ROOM EIGHTEEN Z 1 The history of Home Room 18 includes many interesting events. 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 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.

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.
