All had one object, one goal set before them: to obtain the elusive yellow metal, gold. Today, one hundred years after the gold rush, the students at South- west High School are also searching for gold, but to most of them, gold is not something which can be measured in dollars and cents. Through the pages of this book there are pictures of students to whom gold means such things as athletic prowess, social well-being, service, or scholastic excellence. Some of these prospectors will find what they are seeking in high school, others, like many of the forty-niners, will fail in their questj but all of these modern forty-niners, whether successful in their high school search or not, will leave this school looking for heavier and purer nuggets. Again, some will fail in their seeking, while others succeed. However, if the gold involved is worth trying to obtain, and if the seekers are conscientious in their quest, whether they discover the actual treasure or not, they will greatly benefit from having tried to make their lifelong desires a reality.

The friends and relatives of those named flocked to the harbor to wish them Godspeed. Let us sail with a group of these Argonauts on their perilous voyage around Cape Horn. Milling and shouting, the crowds cheered as the ship began to move. Hats and white handkerchiefs waved goodby. From the ship came the sound of singing and last shouted farewells, messages, and assurances. Then the ship gathered speed. The journey began in earnest. The odyssey was a long hard one. During the first week or two, rocking of the ship made many miserably seasick. Aside from that, how- ever, the first weeks on board were the most pleasant of the entire voyage. The voyagers spent the days in singing and dancing, fishing, or just talking. Monotony and discomfort, however, soon outran novelty and interest. Calms, sometimes of a week's duration, violent tropical storms, which forced the passengers to stay below deck for days, and crowded quarters contributed to unrest. Quarrels broke out. Law and order became non-existant. To remedy this situation the voyagers elected a president, organized a police force, laid out the deck of the ship into streets, made and rigidly enforced laws, started a ship's newspaper, encouraged religious services, and practiced military drills. Finally, the travelers reached Cape Horn. Ships had to wait for calm weather before attempting the narrow, treacherous Straits of Magellen. In spite of the danger and difficulty of this passage, not one ship of the fleet that made the attempt failed to get through safely. After rounding the Horn, the sailors felt that they were almost within reach of their goal. Stops at Valparaiso, Callao, or Rio to take on fresh water and food broke the monotony of sailing once or twice during the voyage. As the shortage of fresh vegetables caused scurvy, the voyagers ate many strange fruits during these stops and were often sick when they again put out to sea. The sail up the Pacific Coast was usually slow but uneventful. Eager faces watched as, at last, signs of land began to appear: land birds, fioating branches, a cloud on the horizon that gradually grew and darkened until recognizable as land. As the ship sailed majestically into San Francisco Harbor, cheering passengers crowded her rails. Impatiently they waited to land and dash out in search of gold-their goal, for which they had been striving during the long months of the voyage. Although their goals are different from those of the forty-niners, the administrators of Southwest are making a similar voyage. Theirs is life's journey. During the calms-monotonous, repetitious days-they seem to be making no progress. Then come storms-too many things happen at once. Classes are restless, work piles up, and our Argonauts are tossed from one thing to another without adequate time for anything. Vacations-the brief stops for fresh supplies-give them a chance for recreation or more study and a time in which to replenish their stock of patience, which at times they sorely need. Still they persevere, confident that they will eventually reach their go-als. What are they seeking? Perhaps it is advancement in their field of endeavor, satisfaction of having a share in the education of our youth, or a sense of well being because of a job well done. But, whatever the gold they may be seeking, these voyagers have one goal in common-to make Southwest the best high school in this great land. VVe, the students of Southwest, stand in the harbor cheering them on, hoping they will attain their goal, and perhaps, hoping that some day we, too, will have the opportunity to reach our E1 Dorado.

BLAZING Tl-IE. TRAIL BY BARBARA GENUIT During the spring of 1849 some 50,000 people streamed forth from the carnival-spirited town of Independence, Missouri, not realizing the diflicult obstacles each new hour would bring before they reached their goal- gold. Youth was in the saddle, hope blossomed like the wild flowers of the prairie, green with spring. Each close of day saw the long marching army of wagons change into an unbroken line of flickering campfires from the Missouri River to the Sierra N evadas. Each party soon learned that a successful journey depended upon experienced and competent leadership with the authority to enforce j ustice. The Indian was a constant menace, even though generally the object of his attack was merely the theft of horses. The imminent danger of a genuine massacre, more than any other one thing, helped to unify the trains. As grass became more scarce and precious grain supplies lower, dread cholera broke out, creeping up the valley from the stricken city of New Orleans. Its story was much the same each time: a few hours of violent illness and a hasty mound at the side of the trail, a grave often dug up by wolves after the party had hurried on. Deaths by aggravating scurvy and raging fever, added to those by cholera, brought the total to 5000 in the year '49. But the terrible part of the journey began with the entrance into the great deserts, like those of the Humbolt or Carson Sinks. Cattle weakened and horses failed. Heat and sand tortured dry bodies as maddening mirages of lakes and streams, leading men many miles off the path, tortured minds. When the desert had so sapped their strength, then came the Sinks themselves where rivers withered and vanished into burning sand. In the long white fields of alkali with drifts of ashes across them, so soft, the cattle sank halfway to their bellies, the dust rose chokingly, and the sun was strong and fierce. At every stop some animal fell in the traces and had to be cut out of the yoke. If a wagon came to a complete halt, it was abandoned. When at last they reached the rivers, they found them almost impossible to ford. In the distance the high, forbidding ramparts of the Sierra Nevadas reared themselves. But beyond lay the green valley of the Sacramento and their gold. Today, modern forty-niners continue to retrace proved trails and to blaze new ones. Many are the goals of these ever-increasing caravans and, as in all history, along these trails the best, as well as the worst, is revealed under the pressure of hardship: heroism, faithfulness, Godliness, tenacity, knowledge, love-truly all golden. Youth will continue to lead the procession. What obstacles along the great adventure of life and learning dare to deter them? What path beckons toward a more worthy gold than that of these Trail Blazers? For with Christopher Marlowe truly we may exclaim: Oh, what a world of profit and delight, Of power, of honor, and omnipotence, Is promis'd the studious artisan!

Even hardened critics were engrossed as Gregory Lawrence added still another triumph to his credit. It was true that the plot might have been a bit more original, however, the Idol of Broadway had again thrilled first-nighters with his performance. Wistful women gazed pityingly-some even resentfully--at their bald pudgy husbands and sighed resignedly. Oh, to change places with Myra, his wife. She must be proud indeed to have such a husband. Many such romantic thoughts were hurriedly concluded as the theater-goers sauntered casually into the massive lobby, pausing only long enough to be viewed in their new attire. Backstage, the star of Intrigue was duly congratulated, photo- graphed, and discussed. After the audience had departed, a young ingenue from the cast approached him and confided, Mr, Lawrence, you Were- well, just superb. I hope that when I reach your age, I'm as good. It must be wonderful to be a star and visit all the famous cities, choose your own plays, and just do whatever you please. What? Oh, yes, of course, he absently replied. Thank you. Upon reaching his dressing room, Gregory studied his face intently before a mirror. My age! Why, I'm only 42. He chuckled. Yes, for the seventh straight year. I wonder how long this can continue. Soon a youngster will come along, and I'll be out of the public eye. He sighed then, recalling his younger days spent in a tiny town in Indiana, whose population could easily fit in the spacious Regency The- ater , where he had appeared tonight. Why on earth did I become an actor! Diets, directors, scripts, pub- licity-absolutely no freedom. And Myra! Even Job would have lost his temper had he married her! Is my career worth all this? I'm beginning to wonder. While thus meditating, he was interrupted by the explosive entrance of Max Reardon, his agent. Greg, you were magnificent. The play itself is lousy, but you put it across. I figure it'll clo-se in about two months. You can't guess what will happen then. Richard W. Brookfield Wants you in Lady's Gentle- man. That guy's as Iinicky as Shaw. Imagine! You're gonna be in a Brookfield play. It's a comedy, too. You said you were tired of these heavy roles. Myra's out there already, gushing over 'deah Mr. Brookf1eld'. Myra's manner was equally disturbing to Max. He had arranged the marriage to further Greg's career, as Myra had backed their first show. Max was still apologizing. At that time, Greg's name had been Potter. Myra bestowed his present one upon him. She thought Potter too crude for words . Not that Greg minded. Lawrence did look better in lights and Myra had wanted it. Myra had wanted quite a bit in the twenty-five years of their married life. He was not a little tired of giving in to her whims. Well, broke in Max, when can you read the script ? Max, I'm afraid I won't be reading any more scripts. I hate to do this to you, but you can get another job. Sheila Patterson has been at sixes and sevens with Jeffries for over a year now. If you catch her in the right mood, you're all set. Greg, are you serious? Max exclaimed, an expression of disbelief registered on his face. Myra will throw a fit. Eighteen I know, smiled Greg. That's partly why I'm doing this. My life has been the 'Taming of the Shrew' in reverse. Now, I'm assuming control of this family. Suddenly, his face took on an enigmatic expression, one that Max could not decipher. Max, I've changed my mind. I will read Brookfield's script. I think I know just how to cast it, too. Six months later came another opening night, but this time Greg was in the audience. An announcement had been made to the effect that he was too ill to appear. His understudy, considerably younger and quite unknown to anyone present, was capably filling in. No one seemed to disapprove of the substitution. During the intermission, Greg wandered through the crowd. It was nice to be on the outside for a change. He heard snatches of conversation praising the new actor, and highly pleased, he returned to his seat in the box. Then, the final act. Greg sat with his fingers crossed, thinking, They must like him, they must. As the curtain fell, resounding applause brought tears to Greg's eyes. He overheard two of the newspapermen commending his understudy. Ya know, Bill, it's really a shame about tonight. That guy was just a little too good for Lawrence to be able to take. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he disappeared soon. He isn't a kid anymore. Yes, I think tonight marks a historic event. Let's go celebrate. I was just thinking that myself. Come on. As he walked toward Max, Greg's shoulders straightened just a wee bit, and a smile settled on his face. In addition to himself only Max and Myra knew that his understudy had been-his own son. He turned, and with a final glance at the theater said, Farewell, Broadway. I'm leaving you in good hands. Then, with a glance toward the stage door, Good luck, Junior.

Ninclecrv VOICES By FLORENE STRUCK There are voices around us Not everyone hears, Voices with laughter And voices with tears: Some telling secrets- W'hispering low 5 Others speaking of Things we all know. The rumbling of thunder Low in the sky Tells that it's angry But won't say whyg The patter of rain As it falls on the leaves Playing with people As 'round them it weavesg The voice of a bird Proud of its nest Must tell the other Why his is the best: The ever-bubbling laughter Of countryside brooksg Voices of rabbits Hidden in nooksg Rustling of branches Of tall splendrous trees, As one tells another All that it seesg Sun-tinted flowers Drink morning dew And in fragile beauty Reflect the sky's blueg The weak frightened voice Of some playful fawn As it discovers An enemy looks on. Mother Nature gave voices For work and for play, To each of her creatures To use his own way.

The week end had brought forth an idler's dream of a Saturday. To sprawl lazily on the grass in the back yard while munching a salted apple, still green from the tree, is not an original pastime. Nevertheless, this was my intention, but inten- tions may changeg mine did. The back door's usual cr-e-e-e-k-SLAM! gave an ominous warning to all loafers as Pop emerged from the house and clumped down the base- ment steps. What's he going to do today ? I thought, Doctor a crippled chair, mix and pour that nail-splitting cement for the garage floor, or is he planning to string up an electrical extension so as to have light by which to work later in the garden at night ? Unexplainably and suddenly I became interested in something, anything, that would divert my atten- tion from the figure of Mr. Henn in his old and somewhat tattered unionalls, prepared for work. I chanced a sideward glance to find a perplexed hesi- tancy dominating his facial expression. It was apparent that he was debat- ing whether or not to ask if I was busy. From that look on I was trapped. What'cha go'na do? Need any help ? I asked. No, you go on with what you're doing. I can manage. Gee, that made me feel cheap! Up I sprang and again I asked, tripping behind him, What'cha go'na do ? Even through the general vagueness of his mumbled words I got the idea that the making of garage doors would soon be in progress. Gazing thoughtfully with chin in hand, my pop was no doubt mentally selecting boards from those left over from our new garage, boards for this project and those that would be needed for things to come. I wanted to help him, but it was just a plain waste of time for me to stand by and watch him do all the thinking. What good could I possibly be? After things got under way, I found myself picking up stray nails which might later spell fatality for the tires of the new car, or running to the basement for the big toothed saw with a broken handle . Those few moments on the walk through the sunshine brightened my so down- troddened soul. Returning, I found Pop more than Ucussing mad . He was quickly restored to better nature by this implement so much better than the warp-toothed one he had been struggling with. He said, Sit on the end 3 keep it from moving. Yes, he would say it as if I should know that oak presented an obstinate resistance to the separation of any two molecules by the toothed intruder. How about nailing? It was the same thing, only instead of a little jerk to and fro it was a bouncing up and down. Wham! goes the hammer Up goes I, In goes the nail As I fall with a cry! I'm not a sissy, no but how many other girls lend themselves out as would-be carpenters? Measure this, Measure that. Put the tape away, But don't bend it back! The hang of it all came to me, after a while. I found myself learning not only practical skills but moral lessons as well. Pop always has a story to tell or retellg stories that never lack interest, whether a personal experi- ence or one of a friend living in Kansas. With the passing of words also passed time and work. The doors were all sawed, nailed, and ready to put up before I realized that my physical output was comparatively small, yet-why was I there? What was it that made Pop seemingly grateful of my presence? It could have been, it must have been the same thing I've felt when working a tough physics problem. I'll get the answer okay, but Pop's being on hand gives me a kind of support, morally. That's it! Working ability was of little conse- quence, but moral support, well, moral support constituted my helping Pop . Twenly-one 5009255 SHUI!! S 3 BH Hurst, A .

Thirty LANDSAILORS By GLENN GORE Fifteen men on a dead man's chest. Yo, ho, ho, and a bottle of rum. Many are the chanties and many are the yarns told of sailors and the nautical life. Some of them live forever, are told and retold, echo through the ages. But few are the stories of land sailors, their adventures and tales of their ship-the lighthouse. ' X. The rocker creaked painfully and yielded under the shifting weight of the aged first mate as he tinkered absorbedly over the battered short wave radio he held in his gnarled hands. Outside the wind and rain tore savagely at the house, seeking to drive the walls against the solitary figure that worked there. Occasionally he glanced up, looked wistfully about the room bedecked with nautical instruments and maritime trophies, then sadly shook his head and returned to his tinkering. So Terry's too old for 'em, is he! he was saying to a small lop- eared dog that gazed questioningly at him. Why if them young whipper- snappers knew half as much as us old timers, they'd be crowdin' th' Admir'l himself. Now you take that light up there a'swingin' aroun', is it too old? Now I ask you Top', is it? It's steadfast, I tell ya'. It's reliable. Oh, yes, they tells me, 'You're reliable, too, but the work's a leedle too hardl' Hard, bosh! It's what a man loves that's easy for 'im. Like I always say, wher' there's a will there's a way. The dog yawned, stretched his head and looked fearfully at the rattling windows as the ravaging storm beat furiously against the house. There, Topper, ol' boy, that should 'bout do it, he sighed, triumph- antly scratching his greying beard. Now, let's try it. He beamed over his horned-rimmed glasses at the cracked and aging knobs. Finding one, Terry gave it a twist and the air was at once shattered by screaming noises and whistlesg and then, as if from nowhere, the clear voice of the newscaster cut through the din of the room: Therefore all stations will be on constant alert. This hurricane is reported the worst we've ever had. Many stations are already out. By all means keep the signals going! The east winds reported--. Then the voice died out. Hurricane ! Terry thought to himself. These keys have some awful blows but when a hurricane hits you can be sure it'll be something pretty--. Calling First Mate McPhalen . . . calling Terry McPhalen, post number nine. Come in, please. Terry leaned forward and flipped a switchg his cracked voice broke the ether. McPhalen 0' number nine reportin', sir. McPhalen, there's a ship, th' S. S. Sequaniann Cmy old ship, thought Terryb, about 20 knots off the starboard side of your island. She's loaded down with foreign refugees, war brides, etc. She'll try an' make it to Port Tampa if she can. That means the ship'll just skin the house. Now watch that light--. At that instant an ear-splitting crash resounding from somewhere overhead cut off the radio, then followed similar crashes. Terry threw Thirty-one down the earphones and carried his lean figure from the room and up the spiral staircase to the powerful light above. The metallic soundings of his clambering feet jarred his nerve-wracked head-the light-The Light -THE LIGHT!-it was shattered completely. Only the solitary glow of the lamp was there to greet him. But how did the mirrors break? he asked himself. How could they have? Surely the wind--. Then the answer glared at him. Lightning! He cursed it, seeing the grotesque glowing form of the copper binding twisted about the wreckage of the gigantic mirrors. His only answer was the jagged curling heat of the lightning as it laughed and danced about him. The ship! Startled by his own accusation, he ran down the steps. My ship, why she, she'll pile up on the rocks. Good Lord! Terry increased his tempo and the staccato-like hammering of his flying feet fought back the wind that swirled about him from above. As he burst back into the room, Terry heard the questioning voice of the announcer, You all right, McPhalen? Come in, number nine. Sir, the light, he paused catching his hurried breath, she's gone. My ship she'lI be tossed about on those rocks, sir, he cried in deep concern. How'd it happen '? Lightnin', sir. Well, I'll bei. Now don't get upset, Terry, me boy, everything will be all right. You probably know of that stone signal pit on the top of the hill to the back of the house. Well, it's filled with wood. Pour enough oil on that wood to keep it burning till after the ship's passed and we'll be okay. We'll have a boat out there in the mornin' to fix the light. Aye, aye, sir, came the reply. Terry signed off resignedly and turned to look down at the dog, who lay whimpering at his feet. We got a big job set out before us tonight. You know, Top, if it weren't for their thinkin' me too old, we'd prob'ly be on the old ship now. Yes, sir, that was the life. You remember when we were? The dog let out a mournful yowl, his eyes dancing. Oh, so you don't even like my stories now, do ye, he exclaimed, bending over and giving the dog a smack on the rump that sent him scurrying from the room. Terry laughed to himself as he pulled a corroded old lantern from the wall and, after adjusting the wick, lit it. He shuffled down the long narrow stairs to the storeroom below, whistling to keep the eerie formation of the rock walls from getting the better of him. He opened the door, the strained creaking of the rusted iron sent shivers of cold fire leaping up and down his back. He viewed the huge casks lining the wall. They con- tained about 90 gallons of oil each and weighed about 400 pounds, he judged. Suddenly he felt the floor tremble and shake even more violently until he pictured himself upon the head of a drum as it rolled on and on. As suddenly as the tremors started, they stopped. Well, I've heard of oceanic tremors playing strange tricks durin' a storm, but nothin' like-. Instantly he was thrown down in front of one of the wooden casks. He recalled feeling the ground tremble beneath his hands before some- thing hit him a glancing blow on the head and then darkness enveloped him. After some time Terry regained consciousness and once the bespeckled lights had quit flashing in his throbbing head, he became aware that he was lying on his stomach pinioned by a large cask on the back part of his thighs. The cask was fastened securely between the wall and another Thirty-two cask. Oh, my head, he groaned to himself, pitying his plight. Where am I? Come on all you barnstormin' rats, I'll take on the whole bunch of yef. Just let me get up an' I'll-. He struggled to rise up and then a sabre hot pain tore through his left shoulder and rebounded throughout his whole body. He screamed in horror at the pain and sank exhausted to the stone floor, salty tears filling his eyes. My arm, he cried, it must be broken. Terry winced at the thought of it. He looked from side to side about the room. The walls, reflecting the light from above, formed greenish white masks upon the rocks that leered a soundless laugh at him from all sides. Time, he exclaimed aloud. How long must I have lain here? Two hours? Three hours? Perhaps a day? The ship, she might have piled up. If there was only some way I could free myself but this here big bulk of a cask holds me tighter than a Scotchman holds his money. By gory, if Houdini could do it -Then Terry heard it. The distant belated soundings of a ship's foghorn. The Sequanian! Why she must be right off the island and in this fog she'll never make it. Realizing that time was running out, Terry squirmed around to try to reach the bung of the cask that held the heavy oil inside, thereby releasing the weight and allowing him to slide free, but his bony out- stretched Iingers missed by inches. As the horn sounded a little closer, he squirmed, wriggled, and pushed against the rotting cask that held his legs, enduring the pain of his arm in a useless effort to free himself. At last in despair he muttered, If only I had me a knife, I'd cut me legs off. Tears of failure ran down his bewhiskered cheeks. Then, as if by instinct, he reached into his pocket for the knife and his trained hands rested upon cold hard steel. Terry drew it out to discover the screwdriver he had been working on the radio with. You worthless old thing, and here I thought I had somethin'. Nothin' but a common ordinary old screwdriver, - he started to throw it away. Screwdriver? he puzzled, Driver, of course! Twisting around until he could just about reached the bung, McPhalen began to drive and beat frantically upon the corked stopper as the approaching fog horn drove him on. With one last swing Terry drove the bung home and the oil gurgled and ran aimlessly about the floor. As if rejuvenated by the black gold as is a tree that presses its mouth against the sky for life-giving rain, Terry pulled himself wobbily to his feet, filled a ten-gallon can with the precious liquid and stumbled limp- ingly back up the stairs, his arm hanging lifelessly at his side. With the foghorn sounding dangerously close and with seconds running out, McPhalen threw open the door and slipping, sliding, with the wind and rain beating unmercifully upon him, he reached the top of the hill and dumped the oil upon the decaying wood, as the lightning skipped danger- ously about him. Then Terry remembered . . . matches. He had forgotten them! The house was too far to run back to! His time had run out! He prayed then, just three little words with all the sincerity he had behind them: Dear God, please! The foghorn sounded as if it were upon him. Surely the Sequanian would be on the rocks any second now. Then the heavens opened and a thin bolt of lightning cracked down and touched the oil lightly. Gigantic flames shot up from the pit, forcing back the wind and the rain, forcing back the darkness, bringing forth the light ...theglight that guided the ship to safety. With the wind of the sea blowing caressingly across his weathered face, Captain Terry McPhalen rolled easily with the fallings and risings of the ship, his ship, the S. S. Sequanian and remarked to his dog, You see, Top, like I told you, where there's a will there's a way. Top just stretched his ears, yawned, and fell asleep. Thirty-three GETTING TI-IE MOST OUT OF LIFE BY PAULA BOWMAN Because man is generally so keenly aware of his material existence, and because he realizes, no matter what his philosophy or religion, that someday that existence will be terminated, he is out to get what he can while he can. I am not unaware of those who have no ambition. Rather, I am dealing solely with those who do have hopes for personal gain of some kind. Our companions in this thing called life are a varied lot. No two are alike either physically or mentally and each has his own idea as to what constitutes a worth-while human existence. I do not mean to set myself up as an infallible judge of right and wrong, but I do know what I believe is right and wrong and that is the guide I use. Some individuals put all emphasis on money. In defense of their view and in answer to the remark that an abundance of money brings only misery, they contend that, at least with money, they can be miserable in comfort. They set out to attain that comfort with a fervor that amazes most of us. They disregard others entirely,keep God out of sight, and eventually wind up with little more than currency. I once heard the story of a man who thought he had a perfect plan for life. He would concentrate on obtaining an education until he reached his twenty-third birthday, then he would devote the next thirty years of his life to accumu- lating an immense fortune. Retiring at the age of fifty-three, he would have a gay time for ten years-really enjoy himself. Having thus obtained his real desires, he planned on spending the rest of his years in, church work, attending to his soul. The plan would have worked splendidly, and did for a time, but the man died at the age of thirty-five, the victim of an automobile accident. Someone has said, If you want to know what God thinks of money, look at some of the people he gives it to. They may own a great house, but they have no home, they have relatives and acquaintances, but they have no family nor friends. Soon, Within the family group, there arise dislike and distrust, and each wonders who will receive the bulk of the estate upon the death of a member. No wonder so many of the deceased have bequeathed large fortunes to dogs and cats! Fame beckons to some who would see their names in lights, who would have the public turn and stare, who delight in reading of their accomplish- ments in newspapers or periodicals. They are possessed with a desire for personal glory so strongly that they cease to care how they attain it, or how many innocent people are trampled underfoot in the scramble. What profiteth it a man if he gain the whole world and loseth his own soul? These vain creatures often erect statues in their own memory so that all who live after will not forget them. I would rather have men ask why I have no statue than why I have one. A few believe that their lives must be pure to be Worth-while and that purity of soul is only attained through withdrawal from the wicked influence of wayward society. I believe that we were put on this earth for a purpose and that it should be the aim of each of us to leave the world a better place in which to live. And how can one person help another if he remains a recluse? How can a person grow within himself if he has no obstacles to overcome? No one would expect to develop himself physically by remaining indoors to read or crochet. In the same manner, how can a person develop strong will power if he has nothing on which to exercise it? Character is formed in the rush of the world. A profitable life is one in which there is a balance of variety. I want smiles in my life, and I want tears, I want security, but I realize the value of fears. If I am afraid of losing something I consider worth-while and dear to my heart, that thing becomes even more important to me and Thirty-four I Hght to hold on to it. Nothing should come too easily for anyone. He should have to gain by his own merits and by his own efforts. Ideals should be placed so high that one can never stop reaching for them. When high standards and principles are practiced faithfully over a period of time, they become habits, and those habits formulate the beautiful life. We should act that each tomorrow finds us farther than today . We should not mourn for dreams that do not materialize, but we should look to the future and with happy hearts travel on to new and diferent opportunities that may be more gratifying in their outcomes. Loving and forgiving, we shall be loved and forgiven in return. Work should be greeted cheerfully just as we welcome rest. Man must not be too sure of himself for there is always something new to be learned and to be positive is to be mistaken at the top of one's voice . An open mind is a means of broadening the soul. I count life just the stuff to try a soul's strength on . Let us make our lives full and profitable. VVe get out of life just what we put into it. As ye sow, so shall ye reap. Let us plant the right seed so that the harvest may be good and plentiful. Four things a man must learn to do If he would make his record true: To think without confusion clearlyg To love his fellow man sincerelyg To act from honest motives purelyg To trust in God and Heaven securely. OCTOBER BY JUNE GREBE October with her special magic Paints a scene pf rare delight, Flaming trees and golden pumpkins Glow in autumn sunshine bright. Roads like ribbons brown and winding Over hill and frosty dale, Barns with silver roofs a-glistening Like an ancient warrior's mail. Cornstalks stacked in tepee fashion Eerie in the cold moonlight, Through the withered grasses scamper Woodland creatures in the night. TIME By WILLIAM HURST One victor never vanquished rules the earth. He has seen battles fierce fought and men Of greatness made. This mighty victor's birth Remains a mystery. But once again The merciless destroyer sweeps the lands Of men, those noted for their work in art, In war, in science, numbered as the sands. The grave comes to all at last, a part Of life which nothing hinders. Work. Deeds done, and honor won on earth then do No good. The memories of people lurk about. That, Time cannot undo. 1Accepted for publication and given HONORABLE MENTION by the National High School Poetry Assic'ciation.J Thirty-five GOLDEN GRAINS BY DAVID SCHULZ Gold! Gold discovered in the California territory. The news spread across the Rockies, through the hot arid desert, and rumbled along the Oregon Trail, till it fell like a thunder clap upon the ears of people throughout the East. California became the topic on the lips of multi- tudes of people who were fascinated by the dream of riches and set out to realize their ambitions. Their goal became the rich yellow nuggets of the gold fields which they felt held the key to their future happiness. The Coloma Valley, where the first strike was made, was dotted with the tents of eager men, panning for that precious metal where it ebbed close to the surface. Shining screen-bottomed pans flashed in the brilliant sunlight as the forty-niners, seeking that elusive metal gold, washed the river gravel. Placer mining, as it was called, was, for the most part, easy, because the pay dirt usually lay within a few feet of gravel next to the bedrock. All that had to be done was to wash the gravel away till the golden grains lay glittering in the bottom of the pan and then to reap the rich harvest of nuggets, ranging in size from eighty ounces to fine particles, the latter called gold dust. In a short time many became extremely wealthy. Some rushed to San Francisco to lose their wealth in one night of gambling, but others settled down to the business of making California a state. Thus, some satisfied their ambition with gold, others found it without gold, and some never found it at all, but all set out with that one goal in mind, the gold fields of California. Though the sands of time have dimmed the' memory of the gold rush of 1849, there is still a rush of equal importance going on today. Man, from the dawn of his creation, has always been striving for a better place in the world for himself and his posterity. And so it is here at Southwest, for each of us is placer mining at the stream of education where the golden grains are polished by the ambition of our students and the patience of our teachers. The golden grains we pan here at Southwest are many and varied. Let us wash some of them closer to the surface in order that we may examine them. These are our golden grains of Service! The members of the Projection Club serve teachers and student groups alike. They are ever ready to operate the movie projector during any period or after school. The Stamp and Bond salesmen, who help the students invest their savings through the sale of government bonds, are working as a part of the advisory' group during the advisory period. The Special Service group helps in places such as the library, the nurse's oflice, the lunch room, and the main oflice, where assistance is needed. They give valuable study time in order to render service to the school. Our Student Council, made up of representatives of the student body, does an admirable job co-ordinating the work of the advisory with the ofiice. They also plan such activities as auds, dances, and various drives. The students who are members of these groups are putting the polish- ing touches on the golden grains they have gathered here at Southwest. If you were to ask one of them, he would probably say that the activity from which he gets the most satisfaction is the service club to which he belongs, for it is written: Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven . The members of these clubs, through their freely given service, have put meaning behind our school motto: Enter to learn, go forth to serve . Thirty-six G :fgA5,. AVAf:A i AwA1:.11vA.'

Each Wednesday, during the final period of the day, a certain group of tireless honor students which make up the Student Council gather in the auditorium. Many are the golden grains of service which stream from their meetings. Sponsoring the activities which contribute so much to the students' enjoyment of school life, this group serves the school constantly. The hardworking group annually sponsors the Miss Southwest Dance and semi-annually presents Hello Dayg the students look forward to these events with increasing anticipation and interest each year. During the spring term, this body presents a memorial service in honor of former Thzrly-ezght students who died in the war. It also contributes very welcome assistance to struggling parents during the night of Open House. However, the Southwest Student Council does not contine itself to school activities: it takes an active part in every worthwhile charitable movement in which it can engage, such as the activities of the Church- World Service and of the Tuberculosis and Cancer Societies. Each year the group assists the Junior Red Cross in the collection of gift boxes to be distributed in foreign lands. Perhaps the Student Council is not a necessity, but necessity or not, it truly makes scholastic prospecting easier and more enjoyable for students and teachers alike.

Ever ready to serve, they have answered the call of the psychology classes, the health classes, the English classes, and various clubs. After they learned the rather complicated process of threading, run- ning, and rewinding the machine, they were sent forth by Mr. Erskine to scatter the golden grains of Service.

The Junior Red Cross manages to turn out afghans, knitted mules, and bed shoes from these materials. It almost seems like magic to see the beautiful and neat work that a group of thirty-eight girls can do. But that is not all. Some of the girls, who are more talented with needle and thread than with knitting needles, make the cutest little stuffed animals a child could want. Besides the fact that the knitting and sewing gives the girls some- thing to do in their spare time, it gives them a feeling of satisfaction to know that they have done something to make some one else happy. This year, as usual, the afghans and slippers went to the veterans' hospitals. The stuied animals were given homes by hospitalized children. We must. not forget the splendid work that the Junior Red Cross did in sponsoring the gift boxes for European children. Under the leadership of the Student Council and the Advisory Groups the Red Cross sent many gift boxes. . This year the girls elected for their president little Shirley Glimpse, a senior who has been with the group for three years. Elected along with Shirley was Margaret Jones. Margaret has the official title of co-vice- president, but, in truth, she might be called Keeper of the Wool for she keeps all the yarn and equipment in order. The other vice-president is Dolores Wachsmann, who has served for two years. Adelaide Kimbro, another senior, was elected treasurer, and Audrey Hoehn, secretary. Both have been with the group for two years. These girls along with the other members, all deserve a hearty thanks for their unselfish and excellent work.

Their project this year has been the making of very handy 'bed-side bags, with pockets inside and drawstring tops. These bags were sent to City Hospital No. 1 and to the City Infirmary. We hope that they have made life a little easier for suiering people. Forty-six ...--...F -...-..-, 5 JUNIOR RED CROSS CMECHANICAL ARTS5 Sponsor: MR.

This they shaped, soldered, and enameled in various designs and colors. The result was useful items at relatively low cost. The St. Louis Chapter of the American Red Cross sent the trays to the United States Marine Hospital in Kirkwood, Missouri and to the Veterans' Hospital at Jefferson Barracks.

Candy bars and chewing gum began to make more frequent appearances than the familiar war saving booklets. Now with old man Depression peeping around the corner our valiant victory stamp salesmen, unsung heroes of the advisories, have come forward with a tried and true adage, Save for a rainy day!

Al Capp had nothing on Southwest this year where some seventy-five boy and girl Cmostly girlb shmoos per semester did almost anything included in service. The library, as usual, took the greatest number of these helpers, about forty-five, to aid in checking attendance. The office used one each period to run errands, except during the first period when two were needed to distribute absence sheets. Eight gave their time in the nurse's officeg one, in the lost and found room. Others lightened the Fifty tasks of Mr. Jones, Mr. Brew, Mrs. Martyr, Miss Meenach, and Miss Busch. Mr. Brew, who sponsors this volunteer group of gold gatherers, has offered a new plan to reward these pupils for their services. A perma- nent four-year record, showing the number of hours contributed to the welfare of the school, is to be kept for each pupil in order that some special consideration may be given in recommendations for scholarships, the Harvard Book Award, and for positions that come to the attention of the school. We know this plan will prove a success.

The cry rang out both near and far with the discovery of gold at Sutter's Mill in 1848. The thrilling news, like a giant prairie fire, spread not only to the States but to foreign lands as well. France held lotteries, the prize being a trip to the gold fields. In America farmers dropped their plows, ministers left their pulpits, and merchants boarded up their stores to rush out to California. The majority of the people came by one of three ways: around the Horn, by way of the Isthmus, and across the plains. Now let us go aboard a ship rounding the Horn. We hear a small boy call, Mother, mother! Mr. Bridger says tomorrow is the fourth of July, and we'll blow horns and have a big dinner just like on Thanksgiving. On important occasions such as Fourth of July, not only did the adventurers blow horns but they played music, made speeches, and read the Declara- tion of Independence. There was no lack of amusement on shipboard, for with banjo and fiddle, song and dance, the days passed quickly. When docked at towns along the way, bull fights, cock fights, and donkey rides diverted the attention of the young and old alike. Now let us turn to a second method of travel. The shortest and quick- est route to the gold fields was by way of the Isthmus of Panama. This route was frequently chosen by New Englanders. Many young college men included as necessary equipment flaming red shirts, slouch hats, and bowie knives in order to be prepared to meet the great West. The pleasures of this type of trip were mostly through the sense of sight, for the Isthmus was a vast jungle of trees, gay with gorgeous flowers and birds of brilliant plumage, rich with coconut and bright oranges. The hardy pioneers who took to the overland trails also had their lighter moments. During the day song banished the longing for the simple comforts of home and their loneliness. Evenings were lightened with dancing, and music was provided by the banjo, harmonica, or fiddle. After the miners had reached their destination, they set out in earnest to strike it rich. Even then it was not all work and no play, for the men enjoyed horse racing and feats of physical skill which kept them in trim. Just as the forty-niners of old had their lighter moments, so do our modern forty-niners relax in various ways. Drama, music, dancing, sports, and clubs prove welcome relief from the monotony of school routine. Let us examine some of these activities more closely. The senior play and various dramatic and radio skits, oier pleasure for all. The Southwest operetta in the fall and the music festival in the spring are musical treats. The band, orchestra, and singing groups enjoy as well as give enjoyment. As high lights of the year come the school dances, while the sports program ofers fun for both participants and onlookers. The social clubs give a variety of opportunities for relaxation. The college, Audubon, biology, and the many foreign language clubs attract the studious minds. Added to these the bowling, skating, pep, and rifle clubs have a large following. Modern forty-niners, like those of a century ago, have their lighter moments which keep them trim, in happy spirits, and ready to meet the problems of a busy school day.

Sixly TEAM NOTES FOOTBALL Riding on the crests of victories over St. Mary's and St. Louis University High, the Longhorns failed to make it three straight by losing to Manual High at Louis- ville, to the disappointment of four hundred loyal Southwest rooters who went down to see the game. Back in good old St. Louis , I I p the Steers really started to roll when they Rffffofff fzogm crushed the Roosevelt Rough Riders in the 'F00'balU ffoofbaw first league game of the season. The Steers, in their second league contest, defeated Central by a convincing score, and in the third our team again showed its great spirit when it beat a strong Cleveland eleven in a thriller. Soldan-Blewett proved an easy mark, but the game to follow it was a real heart-breaker. Beaumont seemed to be more able to take advantage of our errors than we, theirs. The setback from Beaumont was the Steer's only league defeat. The season ended with an easy win over McKinley, but we were in second place behind Beaumont who took first. BASKETBALL Coach Polster, who is enthusiastic in his praise of this year's team, sounds a mournful note. He points out that June graduation has taken Don Ehrhardt, Merrill Rogers, Bob Praechter, Edward Oechsle, and Eugene Fisher plus the star forward, Gary Schaeffer, who graduated in January. One look at the record of the promising B team, however, assures him and us that next year's team will come through with flying colors. Schulte Prichard fBasebalIQ fTrackj BASEBALL Southwest started the season by winning the first three non-league games from Roosevelt, Beaumont, and DeAndreis. We then triumphed over Harris, Hadley, and AHton. Going on to beat Hadley and Affton again, We won from St. Mary's. This gave us the excellent record of nine won and none lost.

AUDUBON CLUB Sponsor: MR. JONES This year Southwest's Audubon Club has continued to go into Tower Grove and Forest Parks, not on a quest for gold, but on a search for our feathered friends. The group delights in reporting that a new species has been found and identified. The St. Louis Audubon Society awarded the group a cup in recognition for its meritorious service. In addition to its own activity, the Southwest Audubon Club has con- tinued to be host to the St. Louis Audubon Society's Screen Tours in our own audiorium. As in other years the club has also had its bird census and picnic. COLLEGE CLUB Are you planning to attend college? Have you talked to one of the College Club students about it? During the past year members of the group talked in turn about a given college. They gave details of the facili- ties available at the college and tried to answer all questions which came up concerning it. Speakers from various schools gave first hand informa- tion, too. If you would like to know something about the many colleges which dot our land and if you need help in choosing your college, this is FRENCH CLUB If future generations of St. Louis French students attain a more complete mastery of French, it will be due in part to the hard working members of this year's French Club. These girls and boys have spent many Tuesday afternoons in Room 305 assisting Miss Ernst in typing, duplicating, and arranging a new course of study for the St. Louis Public School system. In addition they have found time to have fun. French songs, games, and films were often the order of the day. The purpose of the club is to stimulate interest in learning French better or, as they say in French, Petit a petit, l'oiseau fait son nid. the club for you. LATIN CLUB , sivuss STEFFEN Sponsors- 1 Miss wooDY The Latin Club meets in Room 303 on even Thursdays. Its purposes are two-fold. The members seek to gain a clearer idea of the Roman background and to have a greater oppor- tunity to practice the use of the language than the class period affords. This year i i G if I as usual it was an active group. Singing l I I 5' V im l songs in Latin, taking field trips to the A si- i MU, St. Louis Art Museum, Washington Uni- g g S ,sw versity, as well as to other points of inter- 'Rf T f ,fn -1 est, and listening to talks made a full pro- iff 1 gram.

Every child enjoys splashing around in water, many outgrow it, but the members of this club never did. Not content with merely paddling about, they meet on Monday afternoons at the Y. W. C. A. to learn to swim or improve their strokes. This year many of the members joined in playing water games, while others practiced diving. The time was never dull, for there was always a new stroke to practice, another game to learn, or a different type of dive to try. Next year, if you are one who enjoys the water, why don't you join the Swimming Club? Junior Life Guard ,,.., .,,...., N ina Webb 4, OFFICERS ali..

Recently Alice Marble, former women's national tennis champion, asked this question, Why is it that more schools do not give greater 'individual' sports? Our club is all out to help her in that respect. Through individual sports you learn a game from which you can derive lastinguenjoyment in future years. Our champs of this year, Jeannette Voertman and Shirley Poeschel, set a high standard for our club. These two girls have an undefeated record, but even those who haven't their skill agree that tennis is tops for fun. In spring and fall the tournaments Seventy-six are brought to a climax by a picnic and wiener roast respectively.

They visited the airport and studied the aviation resources of the St. Louis area, Missouriis aviation activities, our national air policy, the Work of C. A. B., C. A.

Every other Thursday afternoon a small group of students meet in Room 108 to embark upon a quest for knowledge in the Held of science. These students, who compose the Biology Club, have scientific interests which range from organic chemistry to forestry. Of course, the group as a whole is interested mainly in biological matters, but the members are free to work individually on whatever they please. This year the club has studied heredity in human beings, plants, and fruit flies. work here at school it also represents South- west in the Junior Academy of the Academy of Science of Greater St. Louis, where it is recognized as the Anderson Chapter. This organization annually assumes leadership of the Greater St. Louis Science Fair.

Eighty-two if-4' u5ic af .S70ufAweAf Around a campfire on the western prairie, on board a ship bound for California, or in a mining camp or town in the evening the sound of voices singing rollicking folk songs or peaceful hymns was often heard during the California Gold Rush of 1849, as music lightened the toil. The modern forty-niners at Southwest also break the monotony of their days in this way. The vocalists assemble each day in Room 400, and if you happen to pass that way you may hear their melodious voices. They are learning, panning some gold, as they go along, but, as in 1849, music lightens the load, turns work into play, and leaves everyone feeling cheerful. The rest of the school receives the benefit of this labor, Mr. llfIOf7LIL'ht'S1. - South- - I ' I G wcstis Mfqhfu ,Mawr of also, when the various singers participate in a Mum' school program. The instrumental groups, too, have discovered the joy of music. In their rehearsals on the stage each day they play all types of music, but whether the piece is a slow waltz or a lively march, it's fun to play. The day may be hot, the athletic teams may be in the middle of a losing streak, or it may be test week, but after a music period everyone feels cheered. Ability to play or sing well plus skill in following the director are the nuggets found in this occupation. fP. S. Did you know that our Early Risers sang at the Federated Music Clubs convention this spring? Have you heard the Later Risers fdads of the Early Risersj sing?

J TF Ninety -three 'Xl SENIOR PLAY Director: MISS REILLY On Thursday afternoon, April twenty-first and Friday evening, April twenty-second the senior classes of Southwest High School presented the celebrated comedy, You Can't Take It With You by Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman, in the school auditorium. The story concerns the home-life, in general, and the varied interests and hobbies of the extravagantly mad Sycamore family in contrast to the life and interests of the very rich, socially prominent, but unhappy Kirby family. The plot shows how Tony, the attractive young son of the Kirbys, falls in love with Alice Sycamore and brings his parents to dine at the Sycamore home on the wrong night. The shock sustained by the Kirbys, who are invited to eat cheap delicatessen food, shows Alice that marriage with Tony is out of the question. Meantime Tony, who knows the Syca- mores are right and his own people wrong, will not give her up, and in the end Mr. Kirby, at least, is converted to the happy madness of the Sycamores. The leading roles of Grandpa Vanderhof, Penny Sycamore, Alice Syca- more, and Tony Kirby were played respectively by Roxy Stotler, Sharon Sack, Julia Koestering, and Lee Zesch.

Ah, yes, the grandeur of the stage, but this isn't all. It means the way you walk, stand, and sitg your general appearance such as your taste in clothes, your color combinations. It means poise and grace in use of hands and arms and feet. Even courtesy comes in under dramatics. Of course diction and speech are very important. A careful individual evaluation is made on all these points by the class or by each student with the aid of wire recordings. After the rating along these lines, comes the work of improvementg but in this class it's fun. Whole stories may be told in pantomine with only the use of hands or feet or sound eiects Cjust one of these last three at a timeb. Next comes the more serious tragedies, either as plays or pantomine. Dramatic education continues along such pleasant paths as field trips, for example, last fall the group saw Man and Superman followed by an interview with its star Maurice Evans, later came a tour of the KMOX studios. If you are interested in taking Dramatics or its youngest offspring, Radio Workshop, next year, see Miss Meenach at once for an O. K., because the membership of such popular groups is necessarily limited. By the way, have you visited the new sound-proof studio which has just been built and equipped along ultra-modern lines?

Ah, yes, gold! the magic Word that is foremost in every mind these days. Gold! gold! the cry resounds from the hillsides and rings through the valleys as some fortunate person is the lucky discoverer of an extensive new vein. As you sit down on a stone beside the cool, babbling brook that crosses your rich but unyielding land, you think of the time, actually only a few years past although it seems an epoch, when you, yourself, were a forty- niner, seeking that same precious metal. You remember how you, your wife Susan, and your son John, Junior, ventured across the country one thousand miles from New York to St. Louis, where your wagon train was made up, and then an additional two thousand miles of hungry howl- ing wolf packs, fierce savage Indians, pitiless deserts, and bleak mountain peaks to California. You had a hard time comforting Susan when you encountered broken wagons, dead animals, and human bones on the trail. You remember how everyone camped in the wagons, even after you reached California, because of their haste to procure the glittering metal. You, too, left your wife in the prairie schooner , as the covered wagons were called, and carefully instructed John to protect his mother from any dangers, even from the red-skinned menace, while you went out with your ,pick and shovel to prospect, staying away for as long as three or four days at a time. You will never forget when, almost a year later, you at last struck pay dirt, a vein of rich gold. You staked your claim and ran to Susan, breathlessly pouring out the good news to her as a small child who has just found a shiny, new fifty-cent piece would to his mother. But you weren't so lucky, as you had thought, for your vein soon ran out, and after a year of hard labor working the mine, you had received only a small amount from it. You had spent most of that money on equipment with which to pry farther into the mysterious depths of the earth's bosom, in hope of finding more of the valuable yellow metal, but to no avail. You finally gave up your cause, sold your machinery, and bought three hundred acres of land from the government. Congress was selling it cheaply to induce settlers to make the perilous journey to the California Territory. You became a farmer just as you had been back East. Not until then did you strike real pay dirt , for not until then were you really contented. As you gaze upon your peaceful farm with the cool, clear stream flowing serenely through it, you realize that you are not fabulously wealthy as you might have become if you had continued to seek gold, but neither are you indigent. For the first time in your life you are truly happy. Of course, there are more hardships here than there were in New York, but you don't mind, you are pioneering, you are helping to build a strong, unified country that will one day take its place at the head of the greatest nations of the world. And now, a full century later, young people are yet looking for gold. Some of these modern forty-niners, who have just begun to face the trials and tribulations of adults in the world of today, will find material wealth, but many more will seek the gold of peace and contentment. Some will search in vain, but those who have a pure heart and a strong sense of devotion to their ideals will one day strike pay dirt .

EVENING SCHOOL GRADUATE VETERANS WHO H BETTE LOU EATON AVE COMPLETED REQUIREMENTS FOR DIPLOMA ROBERT E. SACK NORVELL COTNER FLOYD ROSCIO THEODORE THEOBALD EDWARD J. WELCH One Hundred Twenty-nine NEW HORIZONS BY PAUL RAHMEIER Almost a full century ago, thousands upon thousands of hardy pioneers left the safety and comfort of their homes to trudge many weary miles across the continent in search of the metal with the magic name-GOLD! Gold, that shining metal for which men will fight and die, had been discovered only a year ago at Sutter's Mill. In that short space of a year, the news had traveled throughout the nation. It caused men to drop everything in their haste to get their share of this wonderful bonanza that was lying around everywhere, free for the taking. Although the stories of this El Dorado had been greatly exaggerated, plenty of gullible men believed them and left for the diggings. Gamblers, thieves, cheats, and every other type of rolling stone went to California to get some of the free money that was flying around. Along with them went a smaller pro- portion of stable, honest, respectable men, who took their time in pulling up stakes, for they intended to stay and would not see their old friends again for a long time, if ever. In numbers they saw safety, and so they followed the large caravans which traveled across the dusty deserts and climbed the huge Rockies. While others went because of the gold, these sturdy, fearless families went because they envisioned a new land, unex- plored and fruitful, a land which would support them for the rest of their days. But before they could realize their dream, they had to undergo hours of sweat and labor with the soil and struggle to protect themselves against the lawless element which ruled California. Upon the broad shoulders of these men and women fell the task of building a peace-abiding territory in which honest people could live in safety. Although they had known what troubles were ahead of them when they had left for Cali- fornia, they had not hesitated, for they were not afraid of whatever might lie beyond their present horizon. At last their determination, plus the fact that right was on their side, won out, and justice prevailed. An out- standing factor in this victory was the vigilance committee, a group of peaceful men who banded together in order to try to bring law and order to their territory. Although they actually executed only a very few, hundreds of crooks and criminals left California voluntarily because they were afraid to face their horizons. Indeed, the future that these des- peradoes faced was a dim one, for they had done no good during their stay on earth. Here at Southwest, another group of forty-niners are just finishing four long years of study, prior to their entrance into a new world. Armed with the various tools of knowledge which they have acquired during the past four years, they are now leaving school, ready to tackle anything that might block the path to success. As the popular poet Edgar A. Guest once wrote: Somebody said that it couldn't be done, But he with a chuckle replied That maybe it couldn't, but he would be one Who wouldn't say so till he'd tried. So he buckled right in with a trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That c0uldn't be done-And he did it. In much the same way that those first forty-niners conquered their troubles, may Southwest's forty-niners surmount all obstacles in order to make their way in that glorious future which beckons them onward toward New Horizons.
