They have ran the gamut of supervised study, provisionals, discipline committees and pink slips, and have emerged victorious. When they were green, they were five hundred and forty-two. Leaving they take three hundred and thirty-six. This mass of five hundred and forty-two better known as the class of nineteen hundred and twenty-eight, got busy before the teachers had time to get used to them. In their first year they set up George Crane as president, Charlotte Kelly as vice-president, George Sievers as secretary-treasurer, and Elwood Rietz as sergeant-at-arms. The ser- geant-at-arms was the only officer who had any work to do. Emerging from the jade period of freshmanship into the swelling head year they held another election. Ernest Rowe was set up to wield the gavel fthere wasn't one, rhoughj, Laurienne McLeish was vice-president, Jeanette Foster secretary-treasurer, and Richard Parsons sergeant-at-arms. This was the year they started to act up, and they acted up so well that the two plays they presented, The Goose Hangs High and The Passing of the Third Floor Back, were crowning achievements. They took a big step thefnext year. They went from lower classmen to upper class- men. Now they were part of the school. They should be respected. They said so. They should be corrected. T discipline committee said so. But they did big things. They had men on the footba, team, men on the basketball team, men everywhere, and they had girls to inspire the men. There may be men who moil for gold, but juniors toil for girls. ' As seniors the class of 1928 has been hugely successful. They got hunters' hats and grew three full beards between the whole three hundred and thirty-six of them. They led Stockton High SchQo'l in its greatest year. They contributed The Rear Car and Honor Bright to their list of four successful plays. The offigejgs-'for the senior year were Bob Cahn, president, Mary Louise Leistner, vice- identg Doris Miller, secretary-treasurer. For the February class the officers ...yveregfck Parsons, president, Thelma Distin, vice-president, Maude Elizabeth Moreing, secretary-treasurerg Carl Rowe, sergeant-at-arms. They have come up through four years of work and enjoyment, and this is their year of glory. The class of 1928 will soon be gone but never forgotten.

You students who are leaving Stockton High School have been following . some sort of standard during your high school days. .' Some of you have set your standards so high, that your accomplishments have really been worth whileg some have been too easily satisfied. All through life you will be called upon to make decisions of im- portance. Will you set your own standards, or will you be satisfied to let others control your actions? World's records are never made by men who set marks too low. Standards must be raised constantly. Progress can not be made by those who are perfectly satisfied with the accomplishments of the past. Set your own standards so high that you will always have to be improving on your past record. Ah, bn! LZ mafff reach floazfld exceed hir grafpg Oz' 10lmt'J cl 2764217612 f0r? ' W. FRED ELLIS, k ..
