My MM zmzbr Clan' HZJf07jl FLYING UADET- M On September 7, 1925, twenty-three freshmen, eager to enter their flying M M career, enrolled in Melba High School with a determination to reach the M goal, graduation from the Senior Class. We were called a few days later to M elect our cadet captain fpresidenti, and his assistant fvice-presidentl, cadet M M first sergeant fsecretary and treasurerl and squadron supply sergeant fser- M geant-at-armsl. The following were chosen respectively, Lee Moore, Blanche M Johnston, Evelyn Dockins, and Eugene Lewis. Mr. Swayne was chosen as our M M flying instructor Cclass advisor.J With his help we were soon flying along at a good speed. A few failed to clear the fence and naturally gave up the M attempt in trying to be aviators. We were sometimes hindered by initiations. M parties, and baseball games, but still we avoided all stalls, slips, and skids. M M Time flew rapidly and we soon found ourselves enjoying a summer vaca- M M tion, but anxiously awaiting the time when we were to enter our second year M M of aviation. K M HEIDGE HOPPING- M Our second year as aviators began in September, 1926. In this course we were advised by the older cadets to keep our noses on horizon, as this was M more dangerous work than that of the previous year. As our officers this BO: H year, Harold Olsen was chosen as cadet captain, Blanche Johnston retained M her place as assistant cadet captain, Hazel Hunter was chosen as cadet first M sergeant, and Archel Simpson as squadron supply sergeant. We were smaller M M in number this year because some cracked up in landing during the latter M part of our first term. In a few weeks we initiated the flying cadets ffresh- K men! into our flying course. Several had narrow escapes in hedge hopping X M and thought they could clear the fences without difficulty, but our flying K instructor, Miss Pratt, warned us that we would never live to see our third M year in aviation if we didn't keep good flying speed. M l 0R,MA'l'ION FL'YING- 5 With two years of aviation gone by, we, as Juniors, decided to start our M third year on September 5, 1927. Our flying instructor, Miss Keeney, left us M M about Christmas so we were compelled to elect another instructor to take her K M place. Mrs. Synder was chosen for this position. M M With Captain Snyder's help the Junior Class accomplished quite a bit this M semester. On the 10th of February we entertained the Student Body and Fac- xz ulty with a St. Valentine's party, which was thought to be the liveliest party M Boi' given up to that time. On the 9th of March each of the different classes en- 336 tertained the citizens of Melba. and surrounding communities, by displaying M ' stunts. The Juniors won the first prize, which was three dollars. Since then M M we have had three candy sales and are planning for another. We are doing M M this to raise money for the Junior-Senior banquet, which comes in May. M We are now learning to keep better flying speed and so far none of us M M have gotten stuck-in-the-mud. We are trying to do better, so that we will M be better fit for our fourth year of aviation, in which we are all hoping to M M be successful. -LOIS EICHENBERGER. M KMMMK KMMMM MMWMNMNMHMM?
