Vice-President LILY GALLOWAY Secretary ROBERT Ti'rTi.E Treasurer THEY STRIVE TO CONQUER i'Youth sows the golden grain today- The harvest comes tomorrow? ln February of l93l, a rather small class entered the Venice High School as lowly scrubs . After two years they began to sow the golden grain in the fields that most interested them. Many began to stand out as leaders, scholars, and athletes. Upon entering Senior High School in l934, they became an essential part of the Venice High School Student Body, serving it in many ways. The fields they have sown were showing signs of a fruitful, plentiful harvest. The goal was finally reached. At last they were Seniors l The first har- vest was becoming ripe, and under the able supervision of Mrs. McLaughlin and Mr. Champion they set to work. The working crew was selected. Steve Carlson was chosen chief overseer, with Marjorie Neve as his assistantg Lily Calloway, scribe: and Robert Tittle, paymaster. At the end of this, their first harvest, there were some who profited more than others, due to their greater ability, intelligence or personality. Five of them, Ruth Ellen Young, Norman Sapiro, Meyoshi lkawa, Marion Luebke. and Frances Tracy became Roman Lampers, Marion Luebke and Raymond Gillette were chosen to represent their class in the Ephebian Society. The seniors of W'37, looking back on their school harvest, may well be satisfied with it. Although there were times of drought and anxiety, these times were few in comparison with the good times of feasting, laughing, merrymaking, and helpful experience. They look forward now to bigger and better harvests in their later life. They use as their creed this quotation: Lucky is he who can get his grapes to market and keep the bloom upon them: who can carry some of the freshness, and eagerness, and simplicity of youth into his later years, who can have a boy's heart below a man's head. -john Burroughs.
