E. E. Crawford G. A. Strong We, the students of the Napa Union High School, deeply appreciate the untiring efforts of our principal, Earl E. Crawford, and our vice-principal, George A. Strong, to advance education, and to encourage student affairs. Our principal, Mr. Crawford, has been with us two years. To him belongs the credit for the enlargement of the vocational department. the two successful half-hour noon periods, the addition of a ninth period by the enlargement of the program, and the omission of a different period once each week for an associated student body meeting. Mr, Crawford is now working on the merit system and he has always taken great interest in the two honor societies. Principal Crawford has encouraged an all-round development in scholarship, athletics, and social activities, backing every thing which was for the good of our school. In very truth, Mr, Crawford is our unfailing friend, kindly advisor, and wise director. Our vice-principal, Mr. Strong, has been with us one year. He came from the high school in King City where he was vice-principal and head of the department of science. Mr. Strong is a graduate of the University of Montana and has done post graduate work at the Universities of Chicago, and California. Vice Principal Strong has taken an active part in the state scholarship and the national scholarship honor societies. He has organized a boys' glee club, and, furthermore, has given us considerable pleasure by singing for us in our assemblies. He has been generous and we have appreciated that. I-Ie takes an interest in the athletic and social activities of school life. He is a man of energy and many new ideas, thoroughly popular with all the students. We feel that our high school has a bright future with these men at its head. llilevenl

welvel S. Northrop B. Northrop THE ASSOCIATED STUDENT BODY The Associated Student Body of Napa High is organized in order that the students may manage their own business affairs, their athletic and social activities, and their scholastic functions. The student ofbcers are elected by a majority vote of the students having Student Body cards. There are a large number of offices that may be held so that the students having executive ability usually have one or more opportunities to exercise that ability during their four years of high school life. Regular Student Body meetings are held on Wednesday morning of each week. The first part of the assembly is turned over entirely to business affairs. The remainder of the period is given to entertainment of some type. It is only of late that very definite programs have been arranged for each assembly. There is always some form of entertainment featuring either some school talent or outside talent. Often a well known speaker is asked to address the students, and in this way much benefit, as Well as pleasure, is derived from these weekly programs. The executive body of Napa High is composed of all the students holding oflicers, and of some of the faculty members. This executive body meets once a week on Tuesday morning. These meetings are opportunities to discuss very thoroughly topics that may arise before bringing them before the entire student body, if such a thing be necessary. Within the Student Body there are many organizations and clubs such as the Spanish Club, Civics Club, French Club, and others, and these are all fostered by the Student Body. In order that a high school may progress, it must have an organized group of students interested in its various activitiesg and such is Napa High's Associated Student Body.
