Senior Class STANFORD JACKSON President WOODROW FARRAR Secretary At the opening of school in September, 1930, the Senior Class had only three members. They were Dorothy Yorba, who came from the Franklin High School in Los Angeles, Violet Azbill, from Modesto High School, and William Downs from Kern County Union High School in Bakersfield. Soon after school opened the Senior Class was enlarged by two new mem- bers: Stanford Jackson, also from Bakersfield, and Woodrow Farrar, from Manchester High School at Manchester, Mich. In November the class organized, Stanford Jackson was elected Presi- dent, and Woodrow Farrar, Secretary. The aim of the Senior Class during the year has been to set a precedent for future classes to follow, and they have succeeded admirably, every member being prominent in student affairs. In sports, both Woodrow Farrar and Bill Downs distinguished them- selves as leaders, both playing all three sports: football, basketball and baseball. Bill Downs was quarterback on the football team, and Woodrow Farrar was captain of the basketball team. They were also outstanding in tennis and other minor sports. In the Student Body Play, Bill Downs and Violet Azbill took the lead- ing roles with Woodrow Farrar and Stanford Jackson both having major parts. These four were also members of the Dramatics Club. The Seniors were also leaders in guiding Student Body affairs. Bill Downs was Student Body President, Woodrow Farrar, Vice Presidentg Dorothy Yorba, Secretary, and Violet Azbill, Yell Leader. All in all, the Seniors of 1931 have set a high standard for future classes to aim at. TWELVE

SENIOR CLASS WILL liT.i On the twelfth of June, Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-one, we, the noted, lordly, sophisticated, spoiled Senior Class of Sl of Tehachapi Valley Union High School, State Of California, being of sound mind, do here and now declare this our last will and testament, and in so doing revoke all others made by us at any time: To the Class known during the year as Juniors, We give and bequeath our title and all privileges attached to it. We also leave to them the busi- ness Of running the school and keeping up its honorable traditions. We individually give to our friends and foes the following: We do: bequeath the red hair and dOnkey's ears Of Woodrow Farrar, also his ability to sing so beautifully, to Lucy Giraudo, knowing that she will profit greatly by these valuable gifts. We do: bequeath the school girl complexion, green eyes, and high mental superiority of Stanford Jackson, to Jane McColloch, and may she use these great assets for gaining more A's in her studies instead of what he used them for-Cfoolishnessj. We also give to Donald Griffin the curly teeth and hot air of Violet Azbill, hoping, as we believe he will, use them to become more talkative. We give Bill Downs' lordly and shieky air with the Women to Walter Elliot, hoping that he may develop into the same success along that line as Bill did. We leave the motherly charm and bossified manner of Dorothy Yorba to Bob McDaniel, hoping that he will make some nice girl a good wife. We do here and now appoint our principal, Mr. Orris Imhof, the executor of this our last will and testament, and we empower said executor to make any change he finds necessary' in the disposition of our property. Hoping that we have made this will out fairly, We, The Senior Class, bid you farewell. WOODROW FARRAR, Secretary, Class of '31 . FOURTEEN
