It was not until individuals or groups of individuals de- liberately set out to explore the unknown that great and rapid progress was made. Columbus, against great discouragements, set out to find new ocean routes and gave to the world a new continent. The founders of our nation deliberate- ly turned away from the known and tried forms of government and gave to humanity the ideals of personal and political liberty and equal opportunity for all. Dr. Jesse W. Lazear and Dr. James Carroll along with others offered them- selves as sacrifices in order that the cause of and the means of combatting the dread disease of yellow fever might be discovered. Through them and others like them the ills which humanity has suffered have been greatly reduced. This progress did not come accidentally. If we, as individuals, wish to make any worthwhile progress in life we must have definite goals and faithfully work toward these goals. Individuals, like the race as a whole, do not make progress accidentally. J. M. CAMPBELL. Faculty FRUITSPUR

A Graduating Class9s lldyssey AMES make 11ews, even as names from '37 class books have made history. The seniors will have left only bodily, for each personality will leave something of its individuality to echo through the halls of Selah High-so1neone's jaunty comebacks, someone 's laugh, someone's gayety. Irradiated, these inimitable traits have added something to our school which will remain forever. Freshmen activities were directed by Bud Burgner, tallied by Marian Englund, paid for through Peggy Ames. Bill Longmire transmitted freshmen ideas to the B. O. C. The next year, Jeanne Brown beguiled the majority of presidential votes. Lucille Engman kept notes and Glenn Phillips sowed the seeds of later economic achievement, while Peggy Ames looked out for sophomore interests at B. O. C. meetings. ln that same year, the class of '37 was first swept into political prominence when, through S. A. A. vice-president Jack McNamara, S. A. A. treasurer Bud Burgner, basketball manager Bob Milne, representative Peggy Ames, they captured four out of the thirteen B. O. C. seats. Girls looked toward Leona Tyrrell and Marian Englund as leaders whose efficiency benefited the Girls' Club through their respective offices of vice-president and secretary. As juniors, class meetings, more serious in motive than former gatherings, were made progres- sive by Al Kloster's energetic leadership. Star slugger Curdele Lloyd stood ready to step into Al's shoes, Phyllis Longmire concentrated her daintiest chirography on the minutes, and Glenn Phillips doled out junior earnings for junior activities. Curdele occupied the seat in the B. O. C. reserved for junior representative. e Jack and Bud exchanged S. A. A. offices that year, Bob Milne continued to manage basketball affairs, and Jeanne Brown registered B. O. C. actions. Phyllis Longmire became mistress of finance for the Girls' Club, Louis Tyrrell the chancellor of the exchequer for the Boys' Club. The Junior-Senior banquet, nautical in motive and entertaining in program was an achievement of effort and ingenuity on the part of the class of '37, Liberal-minded Ralph Seibly presided over senior class meetings. Bill Longmire shouldered the job of vice-prexy, and Joyce Johnston kept the official pencil moving. Senior class treasurer became a side-line for Glenn Phillips, who signed away S. A. A. funds at the direction of the B. O. C. The class of '37 retained its B. O. C. prestige through Glenn, Jack, as Fruitspur editor, Louis Tyrrell, who was elected S. A. A. president, Bob Milne, as basketball manager, Evelyn Relyea, as S. A. A. secretary, and Peggy Ames, who saw that the student body was well entertained every Friday. Al Kloster perspired through a year of Boys' Club presidency, Peggy Ames led Girls' Club ac- tivities, and Jack McNamara re-animated the Honor Society in his presidential administration. Bob Burgner directed Boys' Club work through Lettermen 's Club presidency. Selah High basketball was kept going through the prowess of long-armed Louis Tyrrell, fast- stepping Ralph Seibly, Bud Burgner, Al Kloster and Curdele Lloyd. Leona Tyrrell, Lucille Engman, Tom Ward, and Bob Milne, were responsible for many a victory for Selah on the tennis courts. Outstanding in politics, dramatics, athletics, music, the seniors, although departing, are leav- ing through their own personal efforts, honor and achievement to Selah High.
