OFFERMAN Conductor WALTER ELLIOTT - - Piano STANFORD JACKSON Violin WOODROW FARRAR Violin LOUIS DYE - - Trumpet FRANCIS WILSON Trnmpet EUSEVIO AOEDO Saxophone WILLIAM DEAN - - - Saxophone Under the leadership of Mr. Oiferman the orchestra has had a most successful year. They have provided excellent musical entertainment for all the plays, and the high school dances found the orchestra lending a real jazzy sound to the affairs. The dance music has been provided by the members this year on account of the shortage of funds. Next year we hope to have money enough to start a real musical library. Our concert music was limited to two books, which we easily mastered. Instrumentation was rather limited owing to the lack of money, drums being very necessary. Next year we will have a set of drums and perhaps a horn or two to make us sound professional The boys were anxious to enter the State orchestra contest held in San Francisco in May, but owing to difficulties in finances and transporta- tion had to forego this trip. When the next State orchestra contest is held we want to enter it and try to bring home a prize for our division of schools under one hundred enrollment. TH I RTY1THREE

IMHOF ----- Sponsor Under the sponsorship of Mr. Imhof the students who attended the first successful High School in Tehachapi, have organized a society known as the Pioneers' Club. They have been one of the most active organizations in student body aHairs, and have enjoyed themselves in many ways. During the basket ball season they played games against the new students, and during the snow season, several battles were held between the two sides. Their parties and picnics have been enjoyed by everyone. . The Pioneer Club is unique in that not many schools have more new members than old. The old students have taken advantage of this fact in organizing their club, and it has proven a complete success. TH I RTY-TWO

STAY ON DECK By WALTER. ELLIOTT, 32 Oh gosh! School is heck, Always gotta work to stay on deck. Teacher asks me questions from nine to nine, Then Pye got to study until it's my bed-time. At night I watch my dad when he smokes his pipe, And wonder what he thinks about when it's quiet. Then mother says, Johnny, go to bed,' There's enough of mathematics in your head. Oh gosh! School is heck, Always gotta work to stay on deck. -...ggi- HOW TO PASS THAT FINAL Enter the classroom briskly with that Know-It-All look, leisurely take a seat, nonchalantly grab one last glance in your book, shut it with a loud, determined bang and meet the professor's eye with a straightforward gaze. When he has finished writing the first question on the board, scribble furi- ously on your paper as though writing the answer. Keep this up until the fellow next to you quits writing. Then put your hand on your forehead as if reading your own answer, while you in reality are reading the answer of the guy next to you. Put down his answer after the professor writes the next question on the board. Repeat when necessary. Just as you leave the room remark in a loud voice so that the Prof can hear you: Duck soup, eh ? This method never fails. THIRTY-FOUR
