FOREWORD The Sagebrusher Yearbook staff presents this book in the sincere hope that it will give a true picture of 1938-39 and bring back pleasant mem¬ ories of work and play at Rock Springs High School. Trouncer, our tiger mascot, is a symbol of our years in high school. He represents our gay and victorious past. Trouncer has led us safely along the paths of knowledge to spread before us new trails into the future. Page 5 DANIEL BROWN 31ass Pres 3, 4; Yell Leader 4; National Thespian Society.

This board strives in every way for the betterment of our school. It performs many traditional duties—such as planning school parties and mixers, awarding the citizensihp trophy, and taking charge of the Lost and Found Department. Each year the board undertakes some new project. This year it has undertaken the making of two flags which are to be placed in the auditorium. One is the school flag, which has the school seal appliqued on it; the other is the athletic flag, which has a tiger on it. Another project of the board for this year has been the making of a gavel to be presented to the incoming president of the Student Association.

Page 36 PEP SQUAD A newly formed organization which has aroused school spirit in our high school is the Pep Club. It has caused a new feeling of sportsmanship in the school, and the effects of it can be seen in all activities. The members of the Pep Club have participated in our assemblies, in the Home¬ coming Parade, and in the sport activities of the school. The girls have sponsored many projects in order to raise money for their brightly colored uniforms. The first two pictures above show the girls of the Pep Squad in formation, mak¬ ing the R, S, and T.
