The enrollment of the new senior high, which includes this year only sophomores, juniors and seniors, has totaled 267 student members. Among the activities backed by the student body are the band, the orchestra, the operetta, the girls' and boys' clubs, debate, declamation, the Spartan News, and the Spartan, besides the various kinds of athletics. ln football and basketball, the Spartans, although not winning any honors, re- ceived recognition for their clean sportsmanship. However, the Spartanettes succeeded in winning second place in the girls' Puget Sound Basketball League. A two-dollar student body ticket was an innovation in Sumner High this year. The ticket included student, class, and club dues, and admittance to athletic events and the high school operetta. lt afforded a real saving for the students. The point system, which was adopted two years ago, proved satisfactory again this year. ln the fall, the Curtis Publishing Company sponsored a subscription campaign contest between the boys and the girls, the latter being the winners. The proceeds were used to buy the footlights for the new stage. The biggest event of the year, came on january 4, when, after returning from the Christmas vacation, the senior high students moved into the beautiful new building. The attractiveness and convenience of the whole structure aroused enthusiasm in all. The conclusion of this happy and eventful year forecasts a bright future for Sumner High School. Twenty 2 A
