ALMA MATER ALMA MATER Here between the deep blue ocean And the mountains green, Stands our dear old Alma Mater, Proudly to been seen. Chorus Swell the chorus ever louder. Echoing far and back; Hail to thee, dear Alma Mater, The Orange and the Black When we leave thee. Alma Mater, Sad our hearts will be. But our thoughts will e ' er be turning Back again to thee.

STUDENT BODY STUDENT CONTROL Despite the fine leadership of the justices of the Student Court, the Student Control Com- mittee got off to a poor start at the first of the fall semester. The first committee was dis- solved as unconstitutional and the efforts of the second proved rather unsuccessful, due to the lack of student cooperation. The second com- mittee was composed of Kenneth Bright, chair- man; Harold Kelly, Caroline Cummings, Dixie Carman, Scottie Harris, Dorothy Farthing, Laura Mills, Billy Frank, Fred Rice, and Ray Faulk. At the beginning of the spring semester Wil- lard Pool, chief justice, called together a hund- red of the leaders in the school. The meeting was for the purpose of clearing up the deport- ment situation. From the hundred students, eight were chosen to form the new student control committee, which acted effectively for the remainder of the year. Members of this committee were Don Burum, chairman; Gertrude Corcoran, Amy Aplin, Joan Moore, Ulmont Robinson, Norris Ewing, Fred Rice, and Harry Carrothers, FIRST ROW KELLY, ROBINSON.

CLASS ROBINSON MAGOFFIN 14 YEAR CLASS Ulmont Robinson Nan Magoffin . . . . Presidant Secretary-Treasurer The fourteenth class was one the most promin- ent in school affairs. The individual members of the class were active as officers and leaders in the various clubs, and the majority of the offices of the Associated Student Body, as well as many other important school positions, were filled by one or another of the graduates. The first dance to be given in the new shop building, completed in January, was sponsored by the Fourteens. This was a sport dance held after the Los Angeles-Ventura Junior College basketball game. These after-the-game dances proved very popular and several more were given throughout the year. The Fourteens were fortunate enough in win- ning the traditional Thirteen-Fourteen basketball game which was held this year in the gymnasium at the Ju nior High School. The two teams were fittingly costumed, the Thirteens appearing in infantile regalia and the Fourteens attired as their big sisters. The babes scampered over the floor in a vain effort to win the laurels, but were severely trounced by their elders. The hi- larious evening was brought to a close with a dance at the Masonic Temple. Due primarily to the lack of finances, the graduation activities of the Fourteens were nec- essarily limited. On May 27, the class presented a snappy assembly program as a part of their class day. The program was under direction of Harry Moore, Jr., and included such numbers as a skit by Ulmont Robinson and Herman Gum- pertz, a few song selections by Anona Squires, and numbers by the Hottentot orchestra. As additional features of their class day, the Four- teens enjoyed a luncheon in the school cafeteria and a barbecue at Matih ' ia. The usual Graduation dance was held follow- ing Commencement Exercises. On Friday morn- ing, June 17, the graduates had their final get- together at a breakfast at the Green Lantern. y ' .Wj r . 19
