had a most enjoyable time. Of course we shall have a class picnic or two before the school year ends. But the juniors have done some other things this year than entertain. It was the junior class which won in the inter-class track meet. And there are several juniors among those who have been and now are training for other track meets. There are also juniors who play tennis. Of course there are juniors on the basket- ball teams-on the boys' first, boys' midget, and the girls' teams. Edgar Kingery, a junior, is pitcher for the baseball team and Myron Bothun, another junior, is also one of the baseball players. There are juniors in all the musical organizations-orchestra, chorus, and all the rest. And can the juniors debate? Well, I guess. Think of all the debates that have been given in the junior English classes. Every member of the junior English classes has debated at least once dur- ing the year, and two teams chosen, one from each junior English class, debated against each other before the Debating Society and presented one of the best programs that society has enjoyed this year. Two of the five debaters representing Turlock Iligh School in the State League debates are juniors. In the school plav, t'Mr. Bob, Paul Nystrom starred as .len- kins and Jennie Dahlin as Patty. When we had a parade to show the people of the community how badly we needed a new high school, the juniors worked harder than any other class and had the most clever float. The juniors presented a very beautiful picture to the school. and on the occasion of the presentation gave an interesting pro- gram to the assembled student body. We are to have an honor roll this year of the students who have received the highest grades for the year. Observe how many jun- iors there are among the honor students. Now I ask: -X What's the matter with the juniors? If you are not yet convinced that they are all right, just look through the Alert to see what they have done and then stop to think about it. I should not be at all surprised if members of the class of '18 became great doctors, lawyers, statesmen, teachers, and even poets. At any rate we all mean to be good and useful American citizens. A whole is made of its parts and the class of '18 is one of the most necessary parts of Turlock High. Next year the members of the class of '18 will be seniors, and those who wear the gold and white will then be a still more necessary part of dear Turlock High. S. G. A. '18, Twenty-seven
