They had safely crossed that wide Sea of Graduation: consequently it was a merry little group that taked joyfully together on the beach. The pilgrims hastened to a large building which stood near. Here they registered, some for a two-days' journey, and others for a four-years' journey through that beautiful land from which so much knowledge might be gained if one but used his eyes and looked about him. The travelers were accosted by stern-looking men and women who took their names and addresses and gave them in return a slip of paper which told them what they should do in that strange land. The travelers felt very weak and bewildered there among so many- strangers, so they meekly asked for a guide. In this way Miss Cox became their first guide. They inimedately rushed to her side for protection from certain wild-looking creatures who said they were Sophomores and Seniors. The travelers, who were called Freshmen by the other people of the new country. soon found that they had a few friends. There people introduced themselves as Juniors, called the Freshmen together, and told them they should organize their people in order to be better able to fight the battles. ' But all was not easy going in this beautiful land, for the Fresh- men were soon drawn into battle in the form of a tug-of-war with those wicked Sophomores. Of course, the Freshmen were victorious. There was an eclipse in the early part of that first year.. caused by the Spanish Influenza, on account of which the class had some diffi- culty in getting started. The Freshmen were very charitable and gave money along the way for patriotic causes such as War Stamps and Red Cross. They also adopted a mascot in the form of a French VVar Orphan. The year was slowly drawing to a close, so the Freshmen met to choose new officers for the next year. before retiring for vacation. Helen Philips wes elected president. Wallace Jackson vice-president. Ose Koch secretary, Douglas Jenkins treasurer. Preston Mclllwing yell-leader, Edith Devine class reporter, and Elwood Bridgewater athletic manager. Sophomore Year The sun had not yet risen on that second year when the Pil- grims. anxious to be started on their way. were bustling around camp. They were not so inexperienced as they had been the year before, so they were given the name Sophomores. ll8l The very first battle of the year took place in the early morning i'n the form of a sawdust contest against the Freshmen. The Sopho- mores were victorious. Many basket-ball battles followed in which six husky young fellows of the class of 322 bravely did battle for the rest of their class. A little later in the year the classes assembled for a banquet in honor of the Freshmen. The Sophomores put on a thrilling stunt entitled T'yramus and Thisbe in which some of the members of the class displayed their dramatic ability, assisted by their guide. Mrs. Burch. Most wonderful of wonderful things! These Sophomores met to have their first real party on December 12. l9l9.lt was a hobo party, and everyone had a wonderful time! This energetic class needed a mascot for their second year, so they again adopted another French war orphan. They sun was about to set on that second year when the last stragglers wandered into camp. A meeting was called for the pur-- pose of choosing officers for the next year. Douglas Jenkins was chosen president, Grace Beilby vice-president. Doris Albright secre- tary, Merrill McGowan treasurer, Qwhen Merrill lost his way Merlin Bryan too khis place.j Ruth Nelson girls' athletic manager, Preston McEwing boys' athletic manager, Lawrence Kelly class reporter, and Archie Higman parliamentarian. Miss Tuttle was chosen our guide. These preparations being completed, they prepared for a short rest through vacation. Junior Year After a rest filled with sweet dreams, the new Juniors were happy to resume their journey. The first rays of the rising sun saw the travelers picnicking under the waving palms at Palm Beach. When they had wandered on an hour or two through the wood- ed land. they were summoned to a gathering of the entire population known as the Frosh Reception. The juniors put on an impersonation of the travelers' guides. Five of the huskies helped defend the school in Foot-ball. Later the Basket-ball war broke out and four of their valiant young men were called to the front. Peace having been fnally declared. they decided to again enter into social activities in the form of a dance. A few quarrels took place which were called interclas: basket-ball games. They were finally decided in favor of the opposing groups. The girls also had a few similar struggles. One, Gertrude Parsons, survived to defend the cause against feminine warriors of other schools. A few friendly debating arguments took place. This activity featured Ruth Karstedt. Grace Beilby, and Wilma Reddy. As the sun was setting at the close of the third year, the so- journers' attention was directed toward track and tennis. ll9l Senior Will We. the Class of 1922, of the Watsonville Union High School, County of Santa Cruz, State of California, of the age of four years, being about to depart from this life forever, and being of sound mind and memory, find in our possession certain articles ,which we are unable to take kith, and while we, the aforesaid class, have the mind and ability to do so, make, publish, and declare, collectively, and sepa- rately, this our last will and testament in the manner following: Firstly-We do hereby give and bequeath to our honored faculty fond memories of our perfect behavior in each and every room.

He had attained the ripe old age of 127 years, due to his exceedingly quiet earthly life. After floating through boundless oceans of space, Reuben at last reached the Pearly Gates. With a feeble hand he tapped timidly. At once Saint Stephen Donahue appeared and warmly welcomed the new angel. Reuben's first question was to inquire if it were possible if any one else of his friends of the class of 1922 of the W. U. H. S. had also entered the Golden Gates. Saint Stephen, after rolling away several clouds, found one which bore the three who first gained entrance without any trouble. One was a little boy, Harry Holmes. Of course, he must have given Saint Stephen one of his smiles to gain his entrance. The girls were Edith Clanton. Gertrude Parsons, and Gladys Williams. Reuben was disappointe dthat the girls had not been at the gates to welcome him. but, of course, it was only because they did not expect him. They planned a reunion for the following evening. With her usual girlish vivacity, Angel Esther Green suggested that Saint Stephen have his celestial secretary, Vera Piroja, bring the Book of Records to see why so few of the Class of 1922 had passed through the Gates of Heaven. No sooner said than done. Vera arrived with her cheeks aglow and the investigation began. The first names to be read on the book were those of Grace Louise Beilby and Helen Anita Phillips. I see no black marks against their names. cried Reuben. Why aren't they in Heaven? Alas, r said Saint Stephen. you remember they were on the tardy list every day at high school. Well, it's the same old story. Both of them died several years ago but they have stopped so fre- qnently to gossip with passing spirits that they are still on their way here. Let's go on with the record. said Angel Esther. And the angel read this sad list of black marks: Kenneth Martin, Convict 2323 Sent to San Quentin by Judge Leo Polifka for keeping a blind pig. Cblind in both eyesj Preston McEwing: Never used his nights for sleep. Peter Freiermuth: Speed demon. Present occupation, messenger for Old Harry. George Dunlap: Black mark No. 1, queening a Soph. Black mark No. 2, crushing ten feet on at dance floor. Black mark No. 3, using too much rouge. Present occupation. fire chief t ohis Satanic majesty. 1221 At this point our friends were interrupted bv a great musical commotion. What in heaven is that? cried Reuben. What is that in Heaven, you mean, said Angel Esther. ' That, said Saint Stephen, is the chorus of those on proba- tion. Lorne. let us see if any of your friends are there. It was not necessary to go far. Wonderful strains of music were heard, and at the pipe organ could be seen May Hockabout, ce- lestial jazz artist, and little Archie Higman, her organ pumper. A heavenly duet composed of Vivian Lindsey and Florence Nelson sang and danced on the clouds. Oh Boy, said Reuben. 'l'hey're just like professionals. They received their training in the school chorus. We have others here on probation, said Saint Stephen. Per- haps they are friends of yours. Who are they? asked Helen enthusiastically. Well, there is Carl Coehlo, the janitor, and Ose Koch, a maid for her Royal Highness, Mrs Saint Stephen. And who is Mrs. Saint Stephen? asked Reuben. Mrs Saint Stephen is Rose Leffaf' he said. Reuben remained silent for a moment, as it was not so pleasant to hear that one of his old friends was married. Suddenly Reuben cried out, Isn't that Ruth Karstedt on that rock pile wonder? Yes, said Saint Stephen. Before she can enter Heaven, she must rip out with her nose all the sewing she did on Sunday. Oh yes, interrupted Angel Esther, Phyllis Rowe is now the milkmaid for Saint Stephen, but it is rumored that Claire Holgerson will soon have her job, as she is becoming careless and spills too much milk on the milky way. Let's continue looking at the Book of Records, interrupted Angel Gertrude. Elsie Perkins: Douglas flenkins joined the forces below, so of course she had to follow in his footsteps. Chester Sproule: Seven black marks for repeated offenses of chewing gum in the Study Hall. Present occupation, chewing the rag with Mrs. Satan. Merlin Bryan: Black mark for being a peddler of patent medicine. Present oc- cupation. loafing in the kingdom of his Satanic majesty. Carlos Goforth: Coal shoveler for Satan. Edward Byram: Is in the land of eternal warmth, acting as a drum major for Cicero. Wilma Reddy: D I She became a grand opera singer. At a charity entertainment she sang Spaghetti so vehemently that she brought down the house and was sent to Hades for manslaughter. l23l Stanley Thompson: Attended a dance at Castrovilleg therefore disqualified. Holton Benzie: Was sent to Hades because he had been caught rolling pennies in Study Hall. Doris Albright: On earth conducting a reform school so that the youthful gene- ration might prosper. Ernest Fugimoto: Black marks for shooting pool in Pippin Billiard Academy when his name was not on the 1ist. Lawrence Kelly: Was footman for Harold White who married a Russian countess and became a Bolshevik leader. Loren Pruden: Was driven insane trying to choose one of the many girls who pursued him. as his wife. Of course, insane people are barred from the peaceful realm. Ed Leonard: Was sitting at his desk when he received an invitation from two of his historical friends, Napoleon and Julius Caesar, to play pinochle with them. He is in Hades playing pinochle. Wallace Christensen: Chemistry fiend. No fiends allowed in Heaven. After closing the book, Reuben remained silent a minute and then said, I think I will leave you, as I want to be with the rest of my classmates. Saint Stephen led Reuben to the Pearly Gates and he started on his way to join the class of 1922. l24l Commercial Graduates PEARL LARSEN ESTELLE FLYNN EDNA BROWN MANUEL ROZA GERALD STILLMAN EDNA TINDALL THELMA GREVSTAD ANNA FLYNN Commercial Will We, the Commercial Class of '22 of the W.

Af , The Little White Cross The old building is in ruins now. and the Sacred Heart Convent has been removed to the more prosperous town of Hollister, eight miles distant. Nothing is left today but the ruins of the nunnery and an old unkempt graveyard- Under a straggly olive tree in one corner isia small but beautiful tombstone, just a cross of pure white marble with a white rosary carved on it. This rosary appears to be flung over the cross. That is all: and this the story that explains the grave and the beautiful white cross. One morning in the years when California was under the rule of Spain, a party of four riders were standing at the gate of the con- vent-a girl, her father, and two Indian servants. The day is so fair. said the girl. Senorita Somavia, as she settled herself in the saddle. Be not too joyous, little Rita, eaid Sister Marie, who was bidding the girl that had been placed in her care ten years before. goodbye. Fair days sometimes end in clouds and harsh winds. The nun watched the riders disappear around the corner of the Plaza hostelry and gave a last look at the valley lying pleasant and green under the sun of a truly beautiful spring day, and returned to her duties. Meanwhile the Senorita and her companions passed out of the main street of the lazy little town of San Juan Bautista to follow the curving mountainous climb of the El Camino Real over into the broad. wind-swept valley of the Salinas River. She had ridden over the same road ten years before, unhappy. motherless child of eight, to be reared under the guidance of the sisters of the Sacred Heart Nunnery. Now she was returning to her fatheris home, joyous and filled with the anticiptaion of the pleas- ures of being mistress of her father's rancho and some day-but that was only a vague thought. As our party descended into the foot hills on the western side of the mountains, they stopped at an adobe ranch house for food and an exchange of news, and then rode on. It was the hospitable house of Senor Andreas at which they had stopped- The Senor is a rich man, said Rita to her father. Yes, all these cattle are his, returned the Senor -i Som- avia. pointing to large herds grazing on the plain. A shrewd man at business. too. After riding for perhaps a half-mile in silence the man spoke again. I owe him much money. The drought of last year has caused my cattle to dwindle to small herds. A man cannot play without a chance of loss. and I lost. The Senor paused and looked rather keenly at his daughter. l29l VVhat will you do? VVill he not wait? ,She knew that her father had a rich grant of many hundred acres, but in those days land could be had in California for the taking. No, but he is a widowerf' Rita saw where her father was leading. Through her the debt would be settled- What were her feelings? I do not know. Spanish girls were used to the betrothals being arranged by the parents. The Senor Louis Andreas was a rich rancher, gallant and well-spoken of. To be sure he loved good wine and gambled, but all early Cali- fornians did. I say I do not know what her thoughts were. Perhaps she had a vague half-formed dream of a more youthful lover-all girls, no matter of what land. have such dreams. It would be a long time before the Senor would demand her, so she forgot, in the joy of her home coming, about the arrangement, or thought of it only now and then. A year passed and more. It was late summer in the valley. The grass was dry. Only the trees along the river and surrounding the ranch houses were green. Usually it was the quiet lazy time of the year, but something unusual was to happen. A new governor was coming to Monterey. Plans fort a rodeo, a barbecue, athree-day festival with a grand ball at the close of the third. to welcome the new official. were talked of in all the ranch houses- It would be a time of pelasure long to be remembered, for who knew so well as the Spanish of early California how to enjoy the feast and the festival? It seemed that only one person was sad. Rita, only, was unable to partake of the pleasures with a happy. untroubled heart. Until recently she had been happy in the pleasures and duties of her home. Some day she would marry the Senor Louis Andreas. He would make a good husband. Why worry? It would be a long time off. thought the girl. But now it was different, for Senor An- dreas was growing impatient and urged a speedy betrothal. Senorita Somavia loved another. Senor De Garcia was the nephew of the owner of the grant next to that of Senor Somavia. A true Spaniard of proud Castilian blood and traditions was he. True to the characteristics of many of his fellow countrymen, he possessed a nature jealous and impetuous, but withmany loveable tra'ts as well- At the rodeo he would carry off many honors. A regular demon on a horse was the senor. A bull had never been found who could throw him. The Senorita had met him often. many times at her home, and a great many times, I am afraid secretly. She loved him and he, her. Senor Andreas was becoming impatient, as I have said before. He was also becoming suspicious of the attention the young Castilian paid the Senorita. This suspicion he communicated to the girl's father. The last night of the festival had come, the night of the grand ball. Senorita, you are beautiful tonight, cried the old Mexican woman who was waiting on her, f'Do vou think so? answered the g'rl. You may go now. VVhen the woman was gone, Rita, with a flushed, happy face. l30l her eyes bright with' excitement and daring. opened a small case and took out a beautiful carved white rosary- It was the gift of the Senor Garcia. and it was to be the pledge and token between Rita and her young lover. Juan. the faithful old servant, had brought it to her with a message. The gist of the message was as follows: The ship which had brought the governor was to start on its return trip at midnight. If the Senorita would wish to go, they would meet at the corner of the arcade of the ballroom. Then they would go aboard the ship just at its leaving. The Senor Andreas would never see his promised bride again. That was all of the message except extrava- gant. but sincere exclamations of love and trust. and the request that if the Senorita wuold go. she should wear the rosary of his mother as a token. i Woiilcl she do it. She raised the string of beads toher lips. and then-slipped them over her head. Love dares anything. Her thoughts were interrupted by her father's calling her name. She came out into the hall and was met by her father and Louis Andreas. In the Senor's hand was a beautiful heavy rope of pearls. I-Iere. Senorita. they are for you, soon to be my bride, said the man- They are beautiful. murmured the girl without enthusiasm. as he slipped them around her neck. She drew back and raised her hand to her throat. but paused. She had hardly emerged from the thoughts which were suggested by the rosary and the message. The famil- liarities of Senor Andreas made her feel as if she were betraying the trust of her lover. and the presence of the heavy rope of pearls lying beside the exquisite little rosary seemed a sacrilege. lf I refuse them. thought the girl, they will both become suspicious. and l will be closely watched or kept at home. I must wear them. Turning to Senor Louis she exclaimed. Ah! they are indeed beautiful, and l will be considered the most fortunate senorita at the ball. This speech and Rita's pretty manner as Senor Andreas escorted her in company with her father to the festival. satisfied his pride. and allayed his suspicions. He soon left the dancers for a game with the older men. There was a feeling of desperation in Rita's heart. The pearls were famous. known to all those in the room as the property of the rich rancher. The room was a buzz with exclamations of, See Senorita Somav'a is wearing Louis Andreas' pearls. The wedding will be soon- The Senor De Garcia heard the words. Anger and jealousy showed in his face but most of all uncertainty. The rosary was there .but also the pearls of Senor Andreas. The Senorita covered up her troubled heart with a gay laugh and manner. She was seemingly the gayest of all that merry crowd. The time for her to slip out was approaching. The building flong since in ruinsj was situated on the rocks so close to the water's edge that the spray often dashed in the windows. As the girl passed the window in the slow dance. well knowing the Castilian was watching, l3ll hardly stopping in the dance, she slipped the necklace over her head and with a unick toss flung it into the blue waters of the bay. Just then the bell on the ship rang out. It was time for her to go. Thankful that no one but Senor Garcia had seen what she had done in the dimly lighted corner of the room, she made an excuse to her partner and slipped away. Relief from the suspense of the evening came over her. as she swiftly went to the arcade, for now surely everything would come out all right. In a moment her lover would join her- She raised her eyes toward the heavens, thanking the saints for her happiness, but so sure of its enduring that she asked not for their further guidance. The Senor came quickly to her. He stood before her and said in a voice hard with anger. They were my mother's. The girl bewildered and amazed heard the voice which now changed to sorrow and reproach. I thought that my mother. up with the blessed saints, would be proud for you to have them. Then he left. She sought the saints instinctively now to help her. How she knew not. One always turns to them when in trouble. She was dazed and astonished, realizing only that the Senor had left. She raised her hand to grasp the chain of beads. The rosary of exquisite white beads was gone- It was evening. The fog had made the sky a drab, dreary gray. A heavy piercing wind swayed and whipped the trees. The solitary rider who had come over the mountains swayed ,too. as she guided her horse up to the convent gate. Sister Marie, who came out to greet the rider helped the woman from the saddle. Little Rita, she exclaimed, hardly recognizing the girl. so changed was she from the happy enorita Somazia she had bid goodbye scarcely two years before. You were right. sister. The fair day has ended in a dark night. Take me in, for I am tired. Oh, if I had never leftli' It was not until the nun had heard the whole story that she understood. Years after. Senor De Garcia returned. He had left on the night of the ball on the ship on which he had planned to carry Rita away. He visited the convent and heard from Sister Marie, then a very old woman. how Rita had by accident slipped the rosary off when she had meant only to throw the pearls away, how she had returned in her sorrow to the Sacred Heart Convent, and of her life as a nun and her death- That is all of the story except that Senor De Garcia sent to Spain for the beautiful white cross I told you of at the first of the story. On it he had carved a rosary identical with the one which had been the innocent cause of so much sorrow, and had it placed over the grave of Sister Rita, the most beloved of all the gentle nuns of the Sacred Heart Convent. G. Williams. l32l A Boys Circus VVhy, we could start a circus jest as easy as a wink, Tommy, 'cause you know all about one, an' all you'd have to do would be to tell us fellers what to do, and' we'd 'tend to the rest. The speaker, the boy who was so anxious to start aicircus, was a little fellow with such remarkably red hair that he was seldom called anything but Reddy. His companion Tommy, was a boy, who, a year before, had thought it would be wonderful to run away with the cir- cus, but in a few weeks. he had returned, only too glad to come back home. You see we'd have to get a tent the first thing, said Tommy, as he seated himself on the sawhorse. I s'pose we could get along without a fat woman, or a skeletong but we'd have to have a tent. anyway, so's folks couldn't look right in an' see the show for nothin'. I've got all that settled. Tommy: an' when you say you're willin' to go ahead an' fix up the show. I'll be on hand with a tent that'll make your eyes stick out. But where you goin' to get the company-the folks that ride, an' turn hand-springs, an' all them things? insisted Tommy. Ben Clark can turn twice as many hand-springs as any feller you ever saw. an' he can walk on his hands twice around the engine- house- I guess you couldn't find many curcusses that could beat him, replied Reddy. But how are you goin' to get any hosses? asked Tommy, thoroughly surrpised at the way in which the scheme was already developing. Bob can get 'lack Dunning's blind one,. an' we can train him so's he'll go 'round the ring all rightg an' your Uncle will let you have his old white one that's lame. if you ask him. I ain't sure but l can get one of Chandler Macklin's ponies. continued the excited Reddy. Yes. and we can have some animals, spake up Abner Bolton. who had thus far been a silent listener on. Old Mrs. Simpson has got a three-legged cat with four kittens, an' Ben Clark has got a hen that crowsg an' we can make my calf into grizzly bear. an' -lack Havener's two lambs will de for white bears. After the planning was finished, Abner proposed a visit to Ben Clark, for the purpose of having him give them a private exhibi- tion of his skill. in order that Tommy might see some of the talent which was to help make their circus a glorious success. At last the day of the circus arrived. Tommy had been pre- sented with a real monkey by his old circus friends, and it was con- sidered quite an addition to their circus. At nine o'clock Ben arrived with the first installment of the meagerie. His crowing hen he had under his arm, and Mrs- Sin1pson's three-legged cat and four kit- tens he brought in a basket. l33l In five minutes Abner arrived with his calf, and a dozen mice. Ben and Tommy led the calf into the tent after some difficulty. owing to the attempts of Tommy's monkey to frighten him. The monkey soon demanded his master's attention, because of his attempts to make friends with the calf. From the time that this peaceful animal, who was to be transformed into a grizzly bear. had been brought into the tent, the monkey had tried in every possible way to get at him, and the calf had shown unmistakeable signs of a desire to butt the enemy. The ropes which held them both had prevented the meeting. Reddy was already busily engaged in painting the posters. dc- spite the confusion that reigned, and. as his work would keep him inside the tent. he was elected general care-taken of the animals, a task which he, without thought of possible consequences, accepted cheerfully. Tommy and Abner now left for the barn to find material for the cages of the wild', animals. They were leisurely returning with some boxes when the spied Reddy rushing from the tent, his 'jacket torn. his face bleeding, and his general appearance that of a boy who had been having rather a hard time of it. Why. what's the matter? VVhy don't you stay an' watch the animals? asked Bob. Watch the animals? screamed Reddy, in a rage: pou go an' watch 'em awhile. an' see how you like it- The money picked a hole in the bag so my cat got out, an' she jumped on the calf, an' he tore 'round awful till he got the hen out an' Mrs. Simson's cat got loose, an' I got knocked down an' scratched, an' the whole show's busted up. It was a scene of ruin which they looked in upon after they had pulled aside the door. The monkey was seated amid Reddy's paper and paint, holding the crowing hen by the head while he leisurely picked her wing- feathers out, one by one. Mrs. Simsonns cat and kittens each had one of Bob's mice in their mouths: while Reddy's cat was chasing one of the squirrels with a murderous purpose. The calf was no longer an inmate of the tent, but a large rent in the canvas showed that he had opened a door for himself when the cat scratched him. Afar in the distance he could be seen. head down and tail up, as if fleeing from everything that looked like a circus. Fred Ruhland, '24, l34l Romance of an Ad Who can tell what lies behind a printed pagc, or who can read between the lines of a classified ad? A former dancer wishes to sell two genuine Spanish shawls. ln 1848 there crept slowly into New York harbor El Torro. a small crowded sail boat oddly unsuited to its name. From Spain. it was. bringing to this la11d of fame. believers in the strange tales of golden streets and unexhaustible riches. A red-veined face. black beads for eyes, flashing fire at every glance. a firm chin covered with thick brown beard, the acquisitive Senor Alvenez stood at the rail of El Torrof' his eyes piercing far into the deep gloom before him. At his side were two small girls dressed in brilliant Spanish colors: their faces resembling that of their father in their proud and flashing eyes. The children attracted much attention because of their beauty, enhanced by the rainbow shawls they wore about their shoul- ders. ' In New York Senor Alvenez, a child by either hand. inquired the way to a place of rent. He spoke with a captivating suggestion of an accent, for Senor Alvenez was a learned man. Learned also in the art of gambling. worshipper of the Twin Gods, Luck and Chance. He was directed and went thither. ill: SF if Ili Sl: Dirty and dusty and thirsty. a long line of prairie schooners stopped on the wide plains for rest. Out of one of the schooners stepped Senor Alvanez, his face pained and drawn. He chafed at the delay for he was on the trail of his stolen daughters. The oxen were unyoked and left to graze on the scant vege- tation. Everywhere. everything reeked of the heat which seemed to almost flow like invisible water about them. Dk lk HK: FK: 2? ln a small town of miners in California there arrived a com- pany of men who set up a saloon, dance hall and gambling joint. Two small Spanish maidens with rainbow shawls waited on these wrecks of humanity, the frequenters of the place. Sometimes they danced to the tune of an old piano and the squeaking of a violin when the hom- bre boss commanded it. One day arrived a miner, a thin gaunt figure, six feet of bones loosely covered with parchment like skin. small colorless eyes. deep set. ever shifting. For a moment they rested on the two dancing girls, he started, glanced furtively around the room and stumbled out the door. . Ten days later came Senor Alvanez. led bytthe strangelflgure. lean as the Plague. A new suit hung around him loosely like the garments of Death itself- l 35 l Proceeding up the street, they entered the saloon. A genial. characterless. blue-eyed individual behind the counter addressed them. Senor Alvanez and the stranger stepped forward. We would like to see the little Spanish girls of the rainbow shawls. We have heard much of them and have come far. We wish to see them dance and to forget our troubles. ls it not so. Senor? The stranger addressed the first man at the bar and lastly. Senor Alvanez, a tense statue of rigidness, his hands painfully shut. the nails cutting into the palms. Ah! The Spaniard and his two daughters departed just three days ago. A stranger came, a whispered word, and they were gone. I bought this place for a songli' Where have they gone? It was Senor Alvanez who spoke. Ah! Senor, who knows? Perhaps to San Francisco, many go there. Who can tell? bk SF all SF if And so the years rolled by. Houses and buildings sprang up everywhere- Muddy streets were paved, people thronged to the new West. Thus was San Francisco built. No headstone marks the grave of Senor Alvanez, for he was stabbed in the back and buried like the rest. In a small room of a Barbary Coast rooming house. there sits all day a woman, whom age has deprived of none of her Spanish charms. The rent is due. She has no money, no friend. She fondles a rainbow shawl. like the one about her own shoulders, the only mem- ory of her dead sister. Never will she part with it. But then, who but the landlord will get it when she is gone? Sell it? Perhaps it would then fall in better hands. She ponders a moment. Yes, she will sell them both. Donning an old, once-red hat. she passes quickly down the street. She returns- She still sits in her bare room waiting, wanting for an answer to her ad and for Fate, Chance, Luck to do their part. Who can tell what lies behind a printed page, or who can read between the lines of a classified ad? H. H., 1923. I 361 The Spoils It might be argued that the Tia Juana of the present is far superior to that of the past. Nearly all Americans would say so, and many store-keepers of that small town would agree. It is the auto- mobile and highway against the ox-cart and the dirt road, American trade against the old dirt fort, the race track against the bull ring. But no matter who argues the superiority of the new era, no one contests the picturesqueness of the old. The bull ring to the south, the old dirt fort on the plaza, or the cafe with the bullet holes in the backs of the chairs, where one pays an American dollar for bullet holes and a Mexican quarter for food, nothing American can equal them. It is the time of the old bull ring of which I write. Not so long ago, it was. less than the stretch of a man's tife time, that the pearls of the Senorita Mercedes de Columbo y Ibanez were stolen. Stolen in the night by a man who fled from the south into the plains toward Tia Juana- A man who rode his pony in a fashion unlike that of a Mexican. and who wore a costume that no Mexican would assume. Tia Juana heard of the robbery before the robber could arrive in town. This is often the case in small border towns. The story spread raidly, and so when Frenchy Le Guerre arrived from the south on a jaded pony late in the afternoon, the whole town awaited him. He was passed upon receipt of a plausible explanation. He had tried the mines, but as his luck had been bad. this luck was usually badj, he had come north to 'cross the border. Now Frenchy had few credientials. However, as he had never been proved to be involved in any of the affairs in which he was believed to have participated. he was a free man. Still, Josefo Romero Gomez, resident of the dirt fort aforesaid, with rank of Capitan, had his suspicions. These he confided to a subordinate, Jose Saleido. a man eager to curry favor in any way. while dining at 4:30 in the cafe of the bullet holes. Jose was skeptical and demanded proofs. Nay,'i said Josefo, did I not see about his neck a string upon which must be attached the packet of pearls? If this is true, responded his companion, we must have it if we sacrifice his neck. I believe that at the turn by the large rock we might accom- plish our purpose. A Yes, we can outride him from here by the cut off, as he will travel slowly.', All right. Let us not be seen together. Start when he does. I will do the same. Adios. Thus they planned. A man riding around the turn below the rock was in an excellent position for a hold-up. And a hold-up it was to be. for let them but once get their hands upon the jewels and all thoughts of returning them would vanish- Why should one return l37l pearls worth thousands. for a paltry reward?' He should not, re- turned Josepho, and he would act accordingly if given opportunity. As the hour for Frenchy's departure drew near, each of the conspirators prepared for his ride. They had every opportunity for a good job, as Frenchy's departure was just before dusk. He jogged along at the dog trot of the range rider. They arrived at the rock half an hour before him, and discussed their plans. They would con- ceal themselves behind the rock until their man came into view and then confront him with a revolver. If he resisted, they could kill him outright. He had no family ties that they knew of. and besides what is the life of a man compared with the value of the pearls? They hid and waited. Before long they heard the hoofbeats of Frenchy's horse. just as he rounded the rock, they sprang out at him. Jose grasped the astonished horse's bridle while josefo covered Frenchy with the gun. Frenchy stared at them in amazement for an instant- Then he saw their intent. He acted quickly. Raising his heavy quirt he lashed at Jose who dropped the bridle and dodged. Then Frenchy whirled his horse to trample josefo. But josefo was not there. He had stepped aside and without raising his revolver. fired from the hip. Frenchy dropped like a stone. The soft nosed bullet had torn a hole in his forehead larger than a pigeon's egg. Almost before he touched the ground. his murderers were upon him, tearing at his shirt. About his neck, sure enough, was a string with a packet hung from it. josefo cut the string and untied the small packet. lt was well tied, as if it were valuable- lt seems to me that it is very light. observed Josefo. Yes, but pearls do not weigh much. responded his worthy partner in crime. -losefo at last opened the parcel and a second later, threw it violently from him with an exclamation of disgust. Jose sprang after it and retrieved it. VVhere are the pearls? he asked. There were no pearls in it.'l answered losefo. It is just as I found it. Would that the man had gone his way unmolestedfi Jose eyed the package curiosly- ln it was a small piece of some sort of white waterial. He removed it and looked at it closely in the faint moonight. It was a baby's tiny white shoe. D. B. Thorburn, '24. l 33 l Armistice Day Armistice Day! Let's play Armistice Day, cried Dick Moore. Sure, let's play Armistice Day and I'll be General Pershing! said Bobby. Well then. I'll bei, let's seeiwell--, I'll be Marshal Fochf' joyfully added Dicky. That is the way it began, but I shall skip the actual organiza- tion of the American Army. except to say that after careful de- liberation Bobby Gates heroically assumed the duties of General Per- shing, Jack Livingston stepped into Marshal Foch's shoes ffor the rest of the dayj, and Robert Cooper with Dicky Moore were turned into lieutenants, while the remainder had to be buck privates. The organization being accomplished, they turned their energy towards the selection of a suitable battle field. This was actual work. but both officers and men went bravely to their task and the trenches were soon completed- After the completion of the trenches. General Pershing linned up his men and gave to each one his share of equipment. It consisted of a short stick, for a revolver, and a long stick, for a bayonet. One of the privates brought out a small American flag from his pocket. It was immediately tacked on a long pole and Ferederick Jackson became color bearer. Allen Rodgers rushed home for his drum and with these additions, the troops on dress parage and reviewed by General Per- shing and Marshal Foch. were quite impressive. The regiment went through its drill in quite soldierly fashion although at times the drill was halted nd the members participated in a quite unsoldierly free for all. These episodes occurred. of course. when the privates forgot whom they were addressing and called General Pershing Bobby VVhen the review was over. Marshal Foch with great dignity. asked the Americans to assist France in her gigantic undertaking, the subduing of the Germans. The soldiers cheered and then General Pershing ordered the Americans over the top to capture the German trenches. The Germans. that is. sticks placed in the ground at intervals. were about fifty feet from the trenches. At the signal from General Pershing the Americans dashed out gallantly and broke through the German lines, scattering the Germans broad cast. A few Americans were wounded, in particular, Lieutenant Dicky Moore, who suffered from a splinter in his thumb- After several such onslaughts. Foch and Pershing left the lieutenants in charge and hurried to the Council of Powers, where peace was being deliberated. They were gon two days. during which time incessant fighting took place between the Ameri- cans and Germans. causing great losses and large casualties on the German side. l 39 l On their return the great commanders found the Americans still ferociously attacking the Germans. Marshal Foch called a halt and in an eloquent address he thanked the soldiers for their aid and then announced the signing of the Armistice. The news was received with loud Hurrahs on the part of all the Americans, including Gen- eral Pershing. Demobilization and disarmament took place immediately be- cause several insistent maternal voices were calling the would-be generals and soldiers to dinner.

T., rzz. l40l Buddies This story was told to me by a veteran of the Worlcl War. Probably it will not interest you. Probably you are fed up on war stories. Anyhow, I tell it for what it is worth. It is a story of sacrifice and love between two men, who, were it not for the war, would have continued on in the regular uneventful course of their lives. unknown to each other. In this case as in innumerable others. it took the peals of martial music and the roar of the cannon to bring to the surface the inherent bravery and unselfishness of one of our common every-day American citizens. In the spring of nineteen seventeen when this big old country of ours really woke up to the fact that we were engaged in a vast world struggle, the draft system was evolved. Men from all over the United States, from every walk of life. from every strata of society were rudely jerked from their homes and sent to one of the several huge raining camps, located at different points in the states. It was at Camp Lewis, VVashington, that fate and the draft board had conspired to bring together George Malley of Douglas, Arizona, of unknown antecedents, and john Powers, son of a Visalia. California. farmer. Here were two men separated by a wide gap on our social scale. Power's life was an open book. Everything that he ever did or probably ever would do was just what any other small town farmer's son would be expected to do. On the other hand, Malley was a man who never spoke of himself or his past. It was impossible to judge from his brief conversations just what his status as a civilian had been. He might have been one of number of things. but one got the impression that camp discipline was not his first ex- perience with the power of the law. Regardless of what their previous life had been, both men made good soldiers. They were both attentive and quick to learn. just how they met or how their intimacy began. I don't know, for Powers. from whom I heard this story. never told. The fact remains. however, that they became firm friends. They were always to- gether, and as luck would have it, they were both chosen when the order came to the camp commander to send one thousand of his best-trained men directly to France as a replacement unit. Drifting from one place to another was not new to Malley, so the subsequent trans-continental and trans-Atlantic journey was no novelty to him, but to Powers it was wonderful. Imagine, yourself, what your emotions would be if you, after being born and raised in a small town. were sent across the world to France. On leaving the ship at Brest the batallion was ordered into rest camp for one week. The purpose of this was to allow the men to rest after their trip and to give them time for their instructions in some of the finer points of trench fighting as practiced on that l4ll side of the ocean. Needless to say the men were in a wild state of anticipation. The younger and more reckless of the outfit were eager for a taste of trench life. The older men and those who knew some- thing of what they would encounter, were not so anxious to leave their comfortable quarters. Powers and Malley come under the for- mer classification. both were desirous of getting into the fight as soon as possibleg but under the condition that they would not be separated. The great moment finally arrived. On April eighteenth they picked with a hundred other men to go up into the first line trenches to fill out a batallion that had been badly shot to pieces. I will not attempt to describe their experiences and sensations when they first came into Contact with German Kultur. Their work for the first week consisted in lookout work and patrolling. Their fel- low soldiers made fun of the old married couplef' as the two insep- arables were called. Even in this situation, where men were all brothers. their strong attachment for each other was unusual. And so they carried on, each stiving to make the hard path easier for the other. Then it happened. Their division was ordered over. The time was set and the awful barrage was being turned on the enemy. The zero hour arrived. and, like ghosts from out the graves. the dark figures climbed and crawled out of their trenches. The Germans, desperate. advanced to meet them. On both sides men were falling like nine-pins. The Germans gave way. Powers andiMalley fighting side by side, as always. were advancing rapidly over the uneven ground strewn with dead and wounded. to gain the protection of the German trenches. Cn the ground in front of these trenches lay a dying German officer. When he saw the two Americans, he drew his revolver, and, mortally wounded though he was. his shaking arm steeled with that treacher- ous hate that has ever distinguished the Boche. levelled it at Powers. Powers was unaware of his danger. Malley saw the act, but his gun was empty: he was powerless to help his friend. Withoilt a thought for himelf he flung his body in the line of fire and received the Grman bullet in his chest. He staggered and fell and as his grief stricken comrade knelt over him his eyes opened and he whispered weakly. S, long john. l'm goin' West. And so it was and so it will continue to be. As long as grim War holds sway. the best and the worst in man comes to light. No matter what his past may have been. no matter what his sins were. the just God has forgiven him for, Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friend. Stanley Thompson '22, l 42 l Carmelitcfs Lantern Monterey! That very word suggests Spanish romance, deep- orange poppies. languid dark-eyed beauties, and fresh breezes mur- muring through the pines. Monterey is steeped in romance, either in the missions. among the fisherfolk, or in the old adobes. One of the many adobes was a second-hand store. Abalone shells marked the pathway and whale bones decorated the small yard. It was here that I was to learn the romance of john Spaulding and the little Carrnelita. I had been in many second-hand stores and usuallv they were about the same. In Monterey I expected to find some'- thing different. I picked mp way into the dusty place. occasionally pushing aside a musty chair. In the back of the store was a pile of plain junk. old harness and such things. Hanging on a nail near this junk pile was a lantern. I picked it up. It was made of dull copper and beautifully etched. There was something fascinating about this lantern. It was so strong looking, yet so delicately carved. I asked an old man. who evidently kept the place, how much it was worth. I was very much surprised when he said that it was not for sale. It had been handed down through his family for several gener- ations and the following story with it. Fifteen-year-old Carmelita was anxious to jump from childhood to wifehood. She was now engaged. She had received the blessing from her family, and now sought the padre. -' Padre, mio. she whispered. I wish to be married with your consent. Oh so light is his hair. so blue are his eyesg whom you well know loves me. and I Carmelita loved The American had to married as soon as he by. and the little ship out on the rocks and love in return. an American. The wedding plans were made. make a trip to San Diego. They were to be returned. Months and yet more months went did not appear. Every day. Carmelita walked strained her eyes to see if she could see his ship. Winter came. The sea grew rough. Still Carmelita watched. One day. toward evening. she saw a ship. In frenzied joy she ran to her fother, shouting. A ship! A ship! I-Ie comes! It had grown dark and Carmelita lighted her copper lantern and waved it back and forth. The sky darkened. The sea grew rougher. Rain came down in angry torrents. Still the girl stood there. drenched from rain and salt sprayg still waving the lantern. until from sheer exhaustion. she fell to the ground. The next dav the shores were strewn with timber and other wreckage. In a daze. Carmelita paced the shores. She saw her father motioning her way. She could not go.

But what of the lantern? I asked. Her father took that and treasured it all his life. Upon his death. he gave it his nearest friend, my ancestor. and so it comes to me. 020 An Ancient Wrong On the banks of the Nile in Africa. there lies a small village. the inhabitants of which were formerly idol-worshipping people. VVhile camping there. one of their old men told me a weird tale, which I in turn will tell to you. Many thousands of years before, his ancestors had built the Sphinx in commemoration of some great deed. To one of his own forefathers had been given the privilege of carving its majestic fea- tures. In its mouth, he hollowed a large hole. After the completion of this massive structure. he secretly stole into the excavation. From here he ordered that sacrifices such as gold and riches should be offered him. The people, thinking it was the great Sphinx that .,poke, obeyed in trembling haste. That night, the man gathered the offerings and brought them to his hiding place. The sight of these riches greatly pleased his greedy soul. Very soon, he felt a craving for food. He slipped to the neigh- boring rice fields to satisfy his hunger. I-Ie decided that this grain was too poor for so great a man as he. so he ventured farther up the Nile in search of better rice. Night had departed when he returned and dawn had taken its place. Quickly running to his hiding place. he crawled in. He dis- covered that his actions had been seen by some early worshippers. Fearing that they would betray him, after a great congregation had assembled, he ordered the burning of these people as a human sacrifice to the Sphinx. Thus originated that ancient wrong of wrongs. the sacrifice of human beings. Violet Holgersen, '25, l44l The Trail In the depths of a lovely valley touched With the light of morn, 'Mid the green of an emerald carpet, A tiny trail was born. And with awkward baby blundering, It clambered to and fro O'er the gentle bosom of Mother Earth, From dawn to twilight's glow. It laughingly cooed to the gurgling brook, Answered the love-birds' call, And was lulled to sleep by the murmuring breeze Near a silver waterfall. 4 The golden-brown leaves of the forest, The velvet moss of the glen, Bore a dainty trace of the tiny trail As it sped by now and then, And even the huge gray pine trees smiled, And waved their plumes at him- Then came a day when the little trail, With a longing not understood. Slipped away from its peaceful forest home. Even ventured from the wood. Through the valleys of golden grain it passed, Through the blossoming orchard side. And the little trail was a trail no more, But a gentle pathway wide. Thus did it grow to a little road, In the rural haunts of men. Where the blushing briar roses sweet, Climbed the fence to talk to him. And yet again, the little trail to a Wide white highway grew. And the plodding feet of humanity Tested it through and through. But full faithfully did it keep the trust, And hold to its purpose high. Though it longed for the cool green woods Again, with the breezes dancing by. And so at last it reached the hills That in purple shadow lay, And wearily clambered to the top, at The close of an Autumn day. And there when the portals of the sunset Paused to beckon and entice. The tired little trail slipped it, To the peace of Paradise. Frances Bowker, '25 l45l A Legend of Egypt Long ago there lived in Egypt a wicked king named Armad. So cruel and mighty was his rule that the people obeyed him with fear. Armadls might was known all over the civilized world, but one of the things for which he was most famous, was his harem. All the beautiful young women in his kingdom were carried away to spend the rest of their lives within the walls of the palace. So cruel was their master that the unfortunate maidens prayed daily to the gods for aid. Their prayers were at last heard on Mount Olympus- Zeus calling a council of the gods. decided that Armad should be punished. One day soon after. the king's men notified him that they had seen a beautiful girl walking along the streets, selling flowers. Her beauty they declared excelled that of any of the maidens of his harem. Of course Armad was very pleased when he heard this and com- manded his soldiers to bring the girl to him at once. But when they went to look for this beautiful maiden. she was nowhere to be found. Many months were spent in the search. One day Armad's men were hunting in the forest when they came to a small hut. Entering, they found a beautiful maiden who was fast asleep. Recognizing her as the girl for whom Armad had been searching they took her with them to the palace. That evening Armad was to visit the new member of his harem- VVhen he entered the room and beheld her, he was for a moment dazzled by her loveliness. As he advanced todward her, she drew back exclaiming. Take but another step and you will rue it! You shall be changed into huge stone monster with the body of a lion and the head of a man. You shall make your abode in the midst of a barren desert where the hot sun shall beat down upon you through the ages. The girl's words greatly surprised the high and mighty Armad, but he dared defy the very gods. He moved toward the maiden. Alas. too late. he recognized the truth of her words. He felt himself hardening into stone. To this day, Armad may be seen in the desert of Egypt. where he has been known for many years as the Sphinx. This is but one of the many legends concerning the origin of this Sphinx. The God- dess Athena was permitted by Zeus to assume the guise of a mortal that she might destroy that unworthy king. Eileen Sutherland, '25. l 46 l A Tale of The Elk River Have you ever heard the story of Elk River? Dannie heard it first from his grandmother. and I will repeat it here, word for word, as he heard it. I The grandmother sat, as usual. close to the table where the soft light, shlning through the paper-polished chimney of the old lamp, would illuminate the knitting to her fast dimming eyes. I love the word 'Elkf To me it means the open glades and the wide forests before they were cleared away. 'Elk' makes me think of fresh, green feeding grounds. There were times of famine in those days. Times when it did not rain. and the leaves curled up and were dragged from their refufres by the hot breath of the wind. But there was this time in particular. For months it had not rained and all the elk had come down from' the mountains to the valleys. They were parched for water. The grass was not wet with dew, of mornings, at it is now. The elk grazed on dry grass turning brown. Many died. and their buzzard-picked bones stuck up white in the sun. But there was one herd ruled over by a great buck. called Scar Face. Dannie, if you only might have seen this Scar Face! He was a most wonderful elk, tall, and very fleet of foot. He stood up straight and fearless. his wide antlers rising in a broad sweep from the crown of his forehead. Across his snout, was a long purple scar. Oh yes, he was frightened all right! Scar Face let his herd with much wisdom and prudence. He seemed able to sense the best feeding grounds and led his trusting band there. ahead-of all others. Naturally they flourished. VVhile other cows' bones bleached in the sun. Scar Face's herd was glossy of coat. and their bellies were round. But there came a time when even Scar Face could no longer find food. The marshes, in both valleys and canyons. were caked hard. and the grass was like tinder. The cows depended upon Scar Face for relief. and his helplessness nearly drove him insane. Far did he travel and tirelessly did he tramp the valleys: eagerly did the waiting cows listen for his call. He would return, himself unfed. If ever he found a nibble he as surely gave it to one o fthe cows. You remember that sand bar two miles up river. Dannv the ba that runs far into the river? Well. that far did Scar Face lead his herd: but they were weak and trmebling and could go no farther. Long did Scar Face look upon them, and as he looked his heart turned to worm- wood within him. His loved ones were dying! But did he give up? she continued fiercely. He did not! He drew himself up and with a bellow that made the woods re-echo he shook his antlers and vanished. On and on he traveled. nor stopped at all to rest. At last he could hardly place one foot before the other. His knees wabbledg a l47l mist swam before his eyes-can't you see him, Danny? He staggered -fell-but got up again and pushed on. Finally he reached the great divide, where the mountains no longer slope towards the south-east but to the southwest. He heard a rumbling beneath his feet. Could his ears have deceived him? No. It was beyond a doubt, water! Desperately, and with every reserve ounce of strength, he fell to pawing the earth. He was successful. Soon he could see the water as it rose from a hidden spring and escaped into an underground cavern. And, Danny, just as he was stooping to drink. he died, and. falling in. sank to the bottom. In this this manner did Scar Face go to join his ancestors. But somehow his body filed the crevice and released the long pent-up waters. Higher and higher they rose, till at last they gushed forth, and went murmuring happily down the mountain side. On and on they flowed. moistening the dry ground, down to where Scar Face's cows awaited his return. They slaked their thirst and lived. It was night when the water reached them and the moon, low over Buzzard Mountain. cut a silver path through the unstained water. This it continues to do, even to this day. Have you ever noticed it, Danny? As soon as the moon tops the mountain. it cuts a silver path through the waters. Thus is the place called the Valley of the Moon. And the river? It is the Elk River, Danny: Scar Face. the great elk. gave his life for it. m.LswoRTH HARLAN. '24 l 48 l Nothing New Under TheSnn I wish that I might be a poet. And write some wondrous rhymes.

But is that all it really means to you? It should mean much more. The Manzanita is the only thing of its kind our school has. It is the only tangible souvenir of the days you spent at the VV. H. S. and surely those days are worth remembering. The Manzanita serves this purpose in that it is a monument to each class that graduates from Watsonville High. ' In taking up the pleasant yet difficult task of producing an an- nual this year, the Staff has exerted every effort to make the Manzanita a book the students would really enjoy. But you must realize, students. that in order to produce a good year book, it is essential that all stu- dents give their support and cooperation. The Manzanita has become a part of the Watsonville High School. It has been built up through many years of hard and faithful work by students before us. Don't let their work be in vain by losing interest in the Manzanita. In future years let us see the hearty support of every student given to the Manzanita, a bigger and better book put out each year to show that the old W. H. S. spirit is still alive! , l53l G RACE BEl LBY Vice-President STEPHEN DONAHUE Business Mgr. Manzanita EDMUND LEONARD Boys' Athletic Mgr. LAWRENCE K ELLY School Reporter Student Body Officers MR.

And the Lamp Went Out was presented by an all star cast. It almost lifted off the roof. The Sophs made splendid negroes and presented a darky wedding. Two Junior Pavlowas were introduced to the public. The Seniors almost topped the performance by presenting Bringing Up Father. Oh, but here is the one that topped the per- formance, The Faculty Fashion Show, by the better half of the faculty. Three cheers for them! They're all right.

This was held in the High School Auditorium on December eighteenth, nineteen hundred and twenty-one. The two classes joined in perfect harmony in making the event a success, and their efforts were highly rewarded. A good time was enjoyed by all can be truthfully said of this affair. Exceedingly good music was fur- nished to the great pleasure of the dancers. Near the end of the evening everyone repaired to the Study Hall where refreshments were served. Sandwiches, coffee and mince pie were on the menu for the evening. Speeches were given by a representative of each class and also several others interested in football, and then Curtis Manning was elected as football captain for the coming year. As a perfect end to an enjoyable evening everyone returned to the Auditorium and danced until the good-nights were said. ' Oi!! Freshmen Reception On the evening of September twenty-third, 1921, the Fresh- men were entertained at a reception given in their honor, by the three upper classes of the High School. To get things started right, there was a program which was to amuse the Freshmen Cincidentally the other classesj. The High School Orchestra played one selection and then Merlin Bryan. President of the Associated Students. gave a short address of welcome to the Freshmen. This was answered by the Freshman President, Ray Pasley. The first stunt Miss Armstrong's Physical Training Class. was presented by the Sophomore boys. The juniors produced a farce entitled, Three Dear Friends. The Music Class thenxgave a song and the Seniors ended the program with jazz Band N'F.verything. At the close of the program refreshments of ice cream and cake were served in the Study Hall. 050 The Play The School Mistress. one of Pinero's comedies. was presented by the Associated Students of the Watsoiiville Union High School on the evenings of February twenty-third and twenty-fourth at the High School Auditorium. The play was a great success. both dramat- ically and financially. The cast did its part exceedingly well and the committees are to be highly commended for their labors. Mrs. Burch, by her untiring efforts. as coach. with the substantial aid of cast and committees, was able to produce something that will be long remembered by the people of Watsoiiville.

The 1922 Sub-Freshman Class met in Room 2, of the new high school building, on March 29th, and elected the fol- lowing officers: President, Robert Leonardg secretary, Melba Pirojag treas- urer. Alma Manningg class reporter, Melvin Fay. The Sub-Freshman Class helped the Freshmen to win the inter- class track meet, a feat not often accomplished by under classmen. A The Sub-Freshmen who took points in the meet were Rolland Richardson and Melvin Fay. Other Sub-Freshmen who entered the meet were Robert Leonard and Theodore Smith. These subs were certainly proud to participate in a track meet in which their class took first place. 0450 Freshmen Class Report The class of '25 began its illustrious career on a memorable Monday in September, when 135 green Freshies thronged the halls of the high school. With a little aid from some kind Juniors the election of offi- cers was held and resulted as follows: Pres., R. Pasley, Vice-Pres., R. Dutrog Sec.. F. McMaster3 Treas.. E. Brewsterg Boys' Athletic Mgr., J. Stillwellg Boys' Yell Leader. H. Baker: Girls' Athletic Mgr.. Evelyn Mooreg Girls' Yell Leader. Edna Manng Historian, F. Bowker, and Class Reporter, B. Bowker. The class colors chosen were green and gold. The first event of importance was the Freshman-Sophomore sack contest in which the Freshmen were beaten, but gave their rivals a hard battle and held them to a close score. The class was entertained by the Student Body at the annual Freshmen reception. The high school was gaily decorated in honor of l62l SZ: :IO SSV lD the occasion and each member of the baby class went away feeling as if he were a part of the high school after all. In November the Freshman girls attended the High .links and carried off the prize for the best stunt, one member also receiving the prize for the best costume. In debating the Freshman team defeated the Sophomores and. for the second time in the history of the high school. won the debate with the Seniors. The class put out some fine material for basketball and the plucky 120 pound team was almost entirely composed of Freshies. The Freshman girls have gone out for athletics and some gained ad- mittance to the regular teams. ln the inter-class track meet the Freshmen took first prize. This is the first time it has been done. and much honor is due to those who participated. VVe sincerely hope that the other three years of our High School life will be assuccessful as this one has been. 0i0 Sophomore Class Report The officers of the class of '24 are: Donaldson Thorburn, presidentg Helen Arano, vice-presidentg Alberta King, secretary: Eric Bradner, treasurer: Rolland Maher, class reporterg James Jones, class historiang Harry Mahoney, boys' athletic manger: Lillian Betten- court. girls, athletic manager: Raymond Vlfasson, yell leader. The Sophomore class has been active this school year. The first of the year we performed our duty of defeating the Freshmen in the annual competition. Four Sophomores. Curtis Manning, Raymond Wasson, Harry Mahoney and George Mcserve, won places on the football team and Curtis Manninghwas chosen to captain next year's eleven. Arthur Brown and Raymond Fugimoto played on the school basketball squad. The class basketball team defeated the Freshmen five. The school team is captained by Harry Mahoney, our athletic manager. Eric Bradner. Leora Strong. and Ruth Richardson represented us in debating. VVe participated in all school activities- As the year draws to a close we have plans for a class party. This will end our activities as Sophomores and next year we will be busy juniors. l64l 1 Junior Class Report PI'CSiCl6Hf ..--..-.,.... ..,..

The day proved to be a true harbinger of the vear which has been a bright and joyous one. i Our first activity was a social affair in which we helped enter- tain the Freshmen by presenting a one-act farce. Three Dear Friends. at their annual reception. Our first Junior party, in the form of a dance, was held October 15, 1921, and every one had a good time, although some of our num- ber were handicapped by not having previously practiced the Terpsi- chorean art. The girls' Hi Jinx, given by the Junior girls. was a great suc- cess and we were able to add considerably to our treasury. Together with the Seniors. we did honor to our school foot- bal lteani by giving them a reception on December 18, 1921. In athletics We did our part also to defend the Black and Gold. We were represented on the school football team by Frank Wood. Milton Jennings and Charles Dondero. Two of our boys. Waldron Hanson and Frank Wood. played on the school basketball team. Many of our boys are going out for the track and baseball and we feel sure we will be well represented in these athletics. The Juniors won the school championship in basket ball by defeating the Sophomores and Seniors in two snappy games- Those on the victorious team were Waldron Hanson, Frank Wood, Milton Jennings, Vernon Payne. John Chapin and Owen Denney. Our girls did their share in athletics also. Helen Hyde. Helen Peckham. Lila Hollister and Hazel Bardmess represented us on the school basketball team. Helen Hyde and Helen Peckham played on the school baseball team. The Juniors were well represented in our High School Play- nearly all the cast being chosen from our class. X We have not neglected to engage in debate and feel that we have acquitted ourselves well although we lost the decision to our upper classmen. Those representing us were, Marguerite Cardoza. Madeline Capps and Alice Rhoades. We feel that we have done our part in all the other activities of the school. and that we will be ready in the fall to assume the more serious responsibilities as Seniors. l66l I ' -s--A1.Ll+.i-i-.,,- ' , ' -9: 'sg .772 gg i- 1- -- -- ,-' ,S ' 5 .gm S? 553 ll!

However, we were all happily surprised to see the rapidity with which the rookies were whipped into shape by the efficient com- mandant, Major Henry Finke, jr. A definite program has been followed which includes numerous games participated in by the entire school, and the best and most effect- ive drilling that has been done for a number of years. The old hatred for military has nearly died out, and it is hoped that the feeling will soon be a thing of the past, for under such a broad program there is no occasion for anyone to complain of the monotony of drill. A general good time is planned for the fellows at an early l68l summer camp. The sports will include baseball. football, cageball in water and on land. boxing, and, of course, a good swim every day. Military work will consist of target pratice, sham battles, setting up exercises. extended order movements which our small grounds at school will not permit. and a few long marches in real army fashion.

I remember distinctly one evening over a year ago, that Ed Leonard started our'Agriculture Course in a little building in the town of Aptos. I say started, because his appeal to the farmers assembled at that Farm Center meeting was echoed all over the valley and finally resulted in installing in our school this course, which has been so beneficial to all who are taking it. - Enough students signed a petition to indicate a desire for an Agriculture course, and the Board of Trustees was more than willing to give it to us. We don't learn all our work from our books, for, though. we have one study and one recitation period on Mondays and Wednesdays, we have laboratory work two periods on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On these last named days. we test soils. study plant life, and in general go over all the things we learn from our books. On Friday we carry this work further by taking a field trip, and stpdying con- ditions in the field. VVe put into practical use the knowledge obtained in the class room and in the laboratory. Our instructor. Mr. Rinn, believes in athletics. so we have had football. track and baseball, as well as barnyard golf. Now let me tell you about the Ag. Club. Most Agriculture teachers are Local Club agents and. Mr. Rinn lost no time in using his influence as such. At our first meeting. George Ray Dunlap was elected president. Milton Jennings. vice-presidentg Houlten Benzie, secretry and Arthur Dresser, treasurer. VVe decided to hold two meetings a month, one to be a business meeting, the other to be more of a social nature. At a later meeting. we adopted the name of The Pajaro Valley Agriculture Club. VVe decided to raise pota- toes as our project. Next came our weinie roast, which turned out to be a great sport. On November 15, Mr. Hyde gave an interesting talk on pota- -des and also illustrated it with slides. We started the new ye... with a marshmallow party at Thompson's Grove around a big bon- fire. The Father-and-Son Banquet. engineered by Robert Blohm and his committee, was a big success. On Saturday evening, Feb. 25, thirty-two fathers and sons sat down to a menu planned to satis- fy both the inner and the outer man. Professor F. T. Griffin was the speaker of the evening, and his talk was enjoyed by everybody. Messrs. E. A. Hall, H. A. Hyde and F. L. Selleck. members of the l72l Board of Trustees. gave some very interesting views on our work. as did Mr. Rmn, Ed. Leonard and George Dunlap. We are looking ahead to several coming events. VVe will be represented at the Farm Bureau picnic by either a football or a baseball team. We are going to enter a stock judging team at the State Fair next fall and hope to carry away some honors and maybe a cup. Fifty per cent of the club, those showing the best results in their club work, will go to the Davis Convention this fall. We will also have a week in the mountains this summer. We are planning to camp near the Salinas bunch, so we are looking forward to some good times. Last. but not least. is our paper, Better Agriculture. It is dedicated to the purpose which is stated plainly in our motto, The Best for Pajaro Valley. Arthur Dresser is acting in the capacity of editor, and he is assisted by Milton Jennings, George Stillman and tanley Phillips. This concludes our work for the year. so far, and for all that we have accomplished, or are planning t oaccomplish, we must thank our instructor. Mr. Rinn. l-le has worked long and hard to help us, and we feel that we owe him a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid. As our instructor, he has helped us to increase our store of knowledge and this is an asset that can never be lost. As our friend he has stood by us at all times.

Sept. 23 We played our first game at Hollister and mauv new candidates were initiated into the gentle art of football while the teani suffered a defeat. Redwood City 0-Watsonville 0. .Oct. l. The second game was at home, and it was the hest game of the season. The score at the end was 0 all. Santa Clara 52-Watsonville 0.. Oct. 8. - Santa Clara preps took up for a merry ride on our own field and left the greater part of the team Wondering what it was all about. Nevertheless every member absorbed some real football knowledge. Santa Cruz 44-Watsonville 6.. Oct. 15. Santa Cruz came over here for the first league game and took a thorough revenge for her whitevvashing of last year to the tune of 44--6. Never mind, Santa Cruz will come again next year. l76l Salinas 64-Watsonville 2.. Oct. 22. Salinas repeated her victory of last year and handed us the worst beating of the season. The third time is the charm, so we won't forget you. Salinas. Pacific Grove 0-Watsonville 30.. Oct. 29. For once the team was on its right fend and won its only victory of tl.c season. p Hollister 19-Vlatsonville 15. .Nov. 5. Hollister again took the bacon from our team. It was a close score at that. This game finished our season. which as ll whole was not encouraging, but losing only four members of the squad and the prospects of good spirit and coaching make next year's chances look hr ghter. 020 BOYS UNLIMITED BASKETBALL TEAM l77l BOYS LIMITED BASKETBALL TEAM TRACK TEAM GIRLS UPPERCLASS BASKETBALL TEAM The VVatsonville Union High School was represented this year by two girls' basket-ball teams.
