From the Boob of Prophecy CHAPTERS MMCLXVI AND MMCLXVII. And in the year 1962, there did appear in the metropolis of Watson- ville. a certain great prophet, by the name of Oscar Maher. And, beholding the old VVatsonville Union High School, he did lament the calamities which had befallen the members of the class of 1925, quoting in the following manner: I beheld Clinton Allison, a missionary among the heathen in Alaska. And, lo, Harry Ashcraft. having become proprietor of the Corralitos dog pound, has at last become the successful operator of a meat market. ' Next, I beheld Blanche Beilby, now famous as. a painter of marine scenes, taken from nature around Moss Landing. And then there came before me the vision of Maurine Blohm, who has become the leader of the Ziegfield Follies. Through the mist, my eyes did see Dorothy Bosley as the leading lady for Lew Cody. Then. as the mist rolled away, there arose before me the vision of Billy Bowker. who has made millions manufacturing false teeth. And then I did see Frances Bowker, who has become the champion bicyclist of the world. And then there came in sight Milo Browne, proud manager of the lace department in VVoolworth's. -Yea, verily, Austin Bryant is now setting a fast pace for the people in Hollywood. Then I bethought myself of Stephen Carey, who after ten years of hard labor at high school, finally received the required number of recommendations and is now studying medicine at Stanford. And, lo, I did see Anna Cikuth, who, in 1925 did win the W. F. X. M. Z. R. T. U. gold medal for being the world,s fastest calculator on the adding machine. Then, did I behold the vision of Richard Craemer, who is now in Spoofum Brothers' Circus. teaching flying fish how to fly. Thereafter I looked. and beheld Irvin Dethlefsen, who is now leader of a famous rubber band. And then I beheld Bertha Dick, known over all the world as a famous skater. And, lo, Ella Dong has become prominent through her debate with Methusaleh on Where was Moses when the Lights VVent Out? And then 1 did see Arthur Eaton as a clever Comedian who delights his audiences with original monologues in down-country dialect. W'hereupon I saw Louise Fillfus who has become the best dress-maker in the United States, for in 1950 she held the world's record for mak- ing striped costumes for the government. Then I bethought myself of Martin Franich, who has become a barber in Russia. And, lo, I saw Nelson Giberson, who is an aviator of repute, having established a new record in flying backward. Next, I beheld Myrtle4Gregerson who has become the world's foremost agitator for shorter hours for Tillie the Toiler. Yea. I did see Alice Hall, who, since 1925, has been trying to arrange the minutes which she took at the meetings of the Student Body. And then there came before me the vision of Earl Hansen, who for the last thirty-five years has been trying to become a success as :1 speed-cop . And I heard the voice of Lulu Hart telling of her experience as a teacher in the art of marcelling in Africa. Lo and behold, our brother, Perry Hill, has just obtained his copyright on a very good book entitled- My Experiences as a Heart-Breaker. And, yea, Violet Holgerson has cast her numerous ambitions aside and decided to be a house-wife, now and forever more. And Fred Holm appeared through the mist as the Light Weight Champion Boxer of l962. And I beheld Dale Huntsman, the sheik of '25, as one of the country's foremost religious educators.. Furthermore, I did think of Evelyn Kitaji, who is traveling our vast country from north to south. and from east to west, giving lectures on the need of a gymnasium in the W. U. H. S. And my eyes now beheld Irene Lewis, taking her regular Sunday strolls 'on the boulevard of Aromas. Lo, as predicted, I found Eva-Marie Lowe living in the VVhite House as the chief leader in society. Then I did see Alma Manning, who has just received a pension from the Mannequin's Society, to which she belonged, and is now living in tl1e home which was built by said society. Yea, and ,Alwyne Miguel has become a notable detective, and is still trying to find out what's become of Sally . And I beheld Lloyd Mitchell who is running a street sprinkler in Aromas. And I heard the voice of Arthur Mork, who has traveled all over Santa Cruz County as a traveling salesman for the Hand-Organ Association. And then there appeared the vision of Alton Murray who went to Russia and now leads the Bolsheviks in that country. And lo, John Novacovich is well-known through-out Pajaro Valley is the Hermit of Mt. Madonna. And, yea, Melba Piroja has become a renowned toe-dancer and has recently endowed a school for the disabled members of her profession. And I beheld Stanley Ramer, who is a great success as the principal of the famous Aptos High School. Then did I see Katherine Rodgers who is spending her declining years i11 a school for enfeebled artists. And lo, Jess Stilwill has worked hard all these years, and is a success as a plumber. Yea, and Irene Strazich is known in the East as Irene Castle II. Then, I beheld Sylvia Stuart as instructor in horseback riding at Mills College. And Chester Turney, who has been running for U. S. Senator for twenty years, expects to realize his ambition within the next twenty fears. ifhen, I did see the vision of Mae Walker, who is a policewoman. Vfhereupon I saw Arthur Webb, who is a sailor on the deep briny sea. And, yea, Vida Wilson had become a soap-box orator, and has a big factory keeping her supplied with soap-boxes. And I beheld Avery Wood, who is now a lamp lighter at Half Moon Ba . Anid then there came before me the image of Yasu Yamasake, who is the champion reporter for the Police Gazette. So have the Seniors of 1925 each proceeded in his own way. They toiled not, neither did they spin, yet not one of the underclass men will ever possess one millionth of their knowledge. So saying, he disappeared, and all was well. .LJEV-HS iaazi :E 2 :azz .5-ES meow Q BAKE EP, -'.-.. -wibvgm 3-F24 -SDD .ECE gc: IIIIIA .pw-MH HDOAA-N god-3 fzcg IIIIII .QS Aggie ggi -9:53 bu:mmNvrHr IAI' I is 2:55 4: 'Exim' .ENE HMOEWEHI I: 2293 gags Oz tlllll 'wi-ZOQEW 83 M--New '--ll' than-Q3 team Illl' I .EEE whim II.l-I be gsm 2 E75 .bhmg-Em .viz Ulllll Jvc?

They had eleven men on the school football team and eight on the school basketball team, and according to dope . the junior track men expect to break a couple of recobrds. ln the dramatic line the juniors have been among the first, since almost the entire casts of the school plays The Charm Schooly' and Daddy Long Legs were composed of juniors. They also scored big hits in their play The l'ot Boilers and in their Vaudeville Show at the junior Party. Social activities and juniors ran hand in hand the whole year. The juniors had their share in the Freshman Reception and their junior Party was a huge success both financially and socially and, if all reports are 'ight. the junior-Senior Reception will be the best yet.

This is the first time in many years that any one class has walked off with the highest honors for two consec- utive years. At the Freshman reception we presented the Black and Gold Dance for the benefit of the new comers. VVhen the foot ball season rolled around, we again showed our pep by defeating the Frosh at this playful pastime. Our team fought a good fight under Captain Crossetti. VVe lost to the juniors after a hard fought game. Bob Baker proved himself the hero of the game by catching a pass and running half the length of the field for a touch-down: he also converted several times. Sad music! The playful Frosh romped around the floor and defeated ns in the Frosh-Soph basket ball game! The class of '27 furnished its share of the players for the foot ball and basket ball championship teams. Many of our boys are hard at work training for base ball and track. Recently we gave one of the most successful parties of the year. George Vvashington, Felix, and several other n0tables were on the pro- gram. Moonlight dancing with good music. and RATS served to make the party a success.

Casper jones was one of that genus known as high school fresh- men. llis companion and chum was l'luto . No. llluto was not a dog. 1'luto would have been a disgrace to any subject of the canine world. l'luto was a liord car. The model was one which had come into the world about 1914 and had since suffered much. l'luto was the pride of -I. Casper's heart and the basis for most of the school-paper's jokes. ll. Casper bore the jests without paying them any attention. for his nimble brain had decided that l'luto should be the subject of ridicule no longer. but would be admired and talked about by all. This determination grew out of an advertisement i11 a popular maga zine. The advertisement dealt on the subject of gas-saving. and assured the reader that lCxcello carburetors would save 5O?b of the car's gas. You have guessed it! -I. Casper answered the advertisement and finally received the thin metal contrivance. lle enlisted the help of several more exper- ienced mechanical shop students and installed the lixcello . lfarly on Saturday morning he poured 10 gallons of gas into l'luto's tank and pro- ceeded to spend the rest of the day in riding with the afore-mentioned students. lYhtn he arrived for supper there were still five gallons in the'tank. -I. Casper was elated. lle looked about for other worlds to conquer. Ile did not have to wait long. The next purchase he made was a set of XYheegee Spark lllugs. guaranteed to save 2511 of your gas. Un tlie heels of this purchase he dug down for it set of l5linx l'iston Rings which were also to save one quarter of the gas. These two additions were added to llluto's anatomy and llluto gave thanks by running for two days with the same five gallons remaining in the tank at the end of the time. True to his expectations. he did become the center of an admiring group. lle was called upon by lXlr. lfisbee. mechanical shop instructor, to lecture befoie the class. 'I. Casper accepted. anl was received by a very serious class, unusually serious. it seemed. Casper did not notice this strange fact, however. and carefully explained his addition to l'luto's mechanical being, three fixtures whose total gas saving amounted to IOOW. lle was received by applause, Ile then explained how he hoped to con- tinue, at which he was greeted by terrific applause. llis next business was to purchase from a demonstrator, on the street, a package of Ciosso tablets which the demonstrator claimed would save at least 251, of the gas. bl. Casper spread the news of his latest purchase. and when he went home after school he was followed bv a body of highly interested students. VYhen they all packed into the garage, Casper proudly poured the contents of the package into the tank. He then turned 'er over a few times until Pluto began to purr loudly. Casper shouted in exultation while his spectators cheered loudly. He then torei' into the house to leave his books so that he might ride about the streets in his chariot. He was startled by a shout from the garage. He sped out and found the excited group about the garage door. The floor was flooded with a liquid whose odor proclaimed it to be gasoline. while more dropped from the axle and tank. His spectators explained the situation. Pluto had been running on nothing and the latest addition caused him to run on ZSZ. j. Casper's visions of himself as an oil king were quickly dispelled when the spectators broke into laughter and fled. J. Casper walked to the door in surprise, and saw the cause of the laughterg outside the garage was a pile of empty gasoline cans. . ' At this moment Pluto ran out of gas and stopped. J, Casper was forced to close up the garage and wander off with a heavy heart. His attempt to stop the jests about Pluto was in vain, and he was about to be the subject of a much greater series of comments and slams, Casper solemnly decided that he would bear the jokes as they were cast at him and Pluto. and place h'mself in no more positions where his ridicule would be strengthened. a Milton Burdick. Wanderlust I've always wished that I could be A sailor on the briny sea, A sailor that could go and see A lot. To see Cathay and India's shore. And Spain and France and maybe more, And then perhaps I could explore Some spot. It always seems so nice out there. All sea and sky and open air, And breezes fresh and weather fair. And hot. I'm kept on landg I have no goal. This life to me seems very droll. For someone who a roving soul Has got- And yet I might be kept below To wash and cook and work. And so I am not sure if I will go, Or not. C7he Commentaries of Hn Automobile Engine Naturally you want to know whatever put this foolish notion of writing commentaries into my battery. Well, you see, it was this way, I had lived a nice, quiet existence for about five years, having had nothing more serious and humiliating done to me by my drivers than to be let run out of gasoline, when the youngest member of the famous trio. otherwise known as the jones family, had a sudden inspiration. that she must drive me. That was the beginning of all my troubles. Although from the first day she ripped my gears I've had plenty to relate, yet it wasn't until yesterday that I conceived the idea of writing commentaries , for it was only then that I learned what these high sound- ing things are. I had often heard her studying what I had supposed to be Greek. judging from the strange sounds made in articulation, yet never had I been able to cast my rather immovable head lights on the book. It happened yesterday, after having spent several hours, as usual, struggling with this unconquerable study. she suddenly remembered that I, like all other mortals, might sometimes grow thirsty, and fglory be to the Saintslj when she came around in front, she still carried the book on which she wastes so much labor, and there on the cover, in bold, gilt letters, was the title, The Commentaries of Julius Caesar. Ah! How my carburetor swelled with joy! I pride myself on being quite a student of medieval history, having been educated by an ancient Ford in the days of my youth, so I knew at once that my assumption, that Know-nothing had been studying Greek. was true. CI can now clearly conceive why she spends so much time on it. That two-headed lobster hasn't the intelligence to learn the gear shift, much less Greeklj However, I now decided that if that Greek of the middle ages, by name Julius Caesar, could write about his conquests of Asia and call them commentaries, my experiences with this loose-brained driver should certainly be written and called by that name. VVell, I guess there'll have to be an intermission until something happens. No. we're in luck. if that's what you want to call it. Here comes the dumb-bell now, and she looks as if she's all set for one of her trips of horror. I shall endeavor, now, to set down my feelings as I experience them while being manipulated by this rattle-brain , although she usually shakes the steering-wheel so much that I can't write. She's in now and pressing on the starter as if her life depended on it, and shc can't understand why I won't start. Maybe she'd have better luck if she'd turn on the battery. The poor simpleton has found her mis' take. I hear her laughing. Can you beat it? I don't see the joke, and neither would she, if her insides were being ripped around as mine are. My mainshaft! Now she has flooded mel She seems to think that a choke is something to play with. I-Iowever, it's no wonder she overdoes the thing, for it takes at least a minimum amount of intelligence to manip- ulate the choke correctly. This certainly makes me cough. I-Iear that. duml,--bell ! She thinks I'm bucking, because it's cold. How atrocious! CWhat do you think of that for an extensive vocabulary?j Oh dear! I sneezed twice, but that hollow-minded bunch of bones in the driver's seat had the impudence to call it exhaust. Oh, my vacuum and piston! I could take pneumonia and she'd think I'd just run out of gasoline. Well-thank heavens! She's finally backed to the street with- out having done any more than run off the driveway on to the grass five times and attempted to pull off a door of the garage with my nose. She doesn't seem to comprehend that my nose Csome illiterate people term it a bumperj was put on my face to lessen the shock felt by the passengers in case of a contact with another car, and not to remove garage doors. Of all the axle grease! She can't understand why I won't go for- ward when I'm in reverse. If we reach our destination alive, it won't be her fault. VVOW! VVhat a jerk! She seems to think that we poor, down- trodden automobiles have no feelings at all. just for that I'll die. Listen to her rave! Now we're off with a burst of speed. VVe certainly do go fast when once we start. Talk of sudden endings! She certainly performed the most sudden one I have ever experienced when she stopped just now. I guess the little rattle-trap isn't aware of the fact that the soles of my feet are as tender as those of anyone else. She certainly gives me a pain in my gas tank! Valves and mufflers! If she doesn't stop making me use my voice. she will certainly burst my manifold. My vocal cylinders are as exhausted as those of any other human being. Well, here comes dumb-bell num- ber two! She certainly has a rotten timer, in automobile phraseology. I guess this means we're going to school. Thanks to the guidance of the patron saint of automobiles, Cno one else has enough power to perform the miraculousj we finally have arrived. Being managed by such a driver is certainly hard on the spark plugs, so I think I'll take the opportunity of turning this three hour wait into a restful snooze and conclude my entry for to-day.

C77ie Gloss House One of the earliest land marks of the Pajaro Valley is an adobe house, now in ruins. known as the old Glass House. lt is situated about three miles south of Watsonville on a hill which overlooks the entire val- ley. The Glass House, the Blue House, and another large house were owned by jesus Vallejo, a Spanish general. It was about the year 1830 that the Glass House was built. lt was rather large. and was made of rough bricks covered with an adobe plaster The first floor was divided into two large rooms, each of which contained two doors, a fireplace, and several windows. The upper floor was a dance hall, enclosed on three sides by a piazza entirely made of glass, dancers promenaded there in all weather. This building was considered too grand for a dwelling. so Vallejo built a small adobe house about fifty feet down the hill. At this elevation there was no water, so this commodity had to be carried from a spring farther down the hill. Near this spring Vallejo kept a grizzly bear: this bear has a history. We are told that this bear was first taken prisoner by a man who lassoed it in the mountains. The bear turned and gave chase, so the man urged his horse forward as fast as possible until he came to a slanting tree. He rode under it, threw the rope over it, and strung up the bear. Vallejo purchased the bear some time afterward: henceforth the grizzly was kept in captivity. One of the greatest aniusements of early days was bear and bull- fighting. The two were chained together and prodded with sharp spikes to make them fight. These fights were held at the corner of Main and First Streets. During one of these fights the famous bear broke loose and started to climb the board fence. By-standers flew in all directions. The bear was captured after much difficulty. Riattas were thrown at hinl. caught between his teeth and snapped like threads. Finally, five or six men threw their riattas at the same time, and captured him. Vallejo owned practically all of the Pajaro valley, but like most other Spaniards at that time, he distrusted the banks of the American people and preferred to hide his money in out-of-the-way places. In 1856 Vallejo sold a tract of land at a tremendous profit. A few days later he rode away and was absent an hour or more. He reappeared, rode into the valley, and was helping some of his men herd cattle when an unruly steer broke loose from the main herd: in attempting to rope the steer. Vallejo was thrown from his horse and instantly killed. His sudden and tragic death left the hiding place of Vallejo's money a dark secret. Ever since then, people who have heard this story have dug in the hills near the Glass House in search of the fortune Vallejo supposedly hid there. Eleanor McGowan. Eureba Canyon, Corralitos, and Watsonville in Early Days Eureka Canyon was at one time one of the most beautiful timber belts in California. In 1865, this redwood forest was one mile wide and four miles long, and in sections the growth was so dense that the sunlight never penetrated. A small fresh water stream, very pure and clean, in which the angler might catch trout to his heart's content, flowed under the branches of the gigantic redwoods. The slaughter of these beautiful trees was started by the Ford and Lanborn Company, for whom James A. Linscott was a logman, and drove an ox team consisting of ten oxen. Linscott hauled saw logs for miles over the skid road, which itself was formed of oak logs laid eight feet apart and partly buried. The saw logs. on their way to the mill, ranged from twelve to thirty feet, according to the orders of the company. james A. Linscott became manager of the Eureka Mill. He hired four hundred men, some of whom lived in the canyon miles distant from the mill. Soon the Clipper Mill moved into the canyon, and later still, Charles Cummings erected a mill near the Eureka Mill. All of these helped to destroy the timber. Corralitos Creek turned a water wheel for a flour mill in Corralitos about 1860. The farmers around Corralitos had their flour ground by crude methods at this mill and their stock fed upon the remains of the flour: bran, shorts, and iniddlings. A dozen shacks and one flour mill con- stituted Corralitos in 1860. Dogs were more than plentiful, so the town was nicknamed Dog town . The hills around Corralitos formed excellent pasture land for cattle. Here the round-up of the cattle took place, here the cattle were branded and sorted for market. lt is to these rodeos that Corralitos owes it name Qlittle corralsj. Later, the original flour mill of Corralitos was converted, by the Brown Brothers, into a paper mill, the straw from the wheat fields supplying the material for paper making. VVatsonville in 1850 consisted largely of a cow-trail with a few houses on each side, and its population numbered fifty people. Watson- ville had four bituminous sidewalks, and Main Street was macadamizecl. Main Street's original name was Pajaro Street. An effort was made to change the name of the city to Pajaro, but this was defeated, and the city was named after Judge Watson, at one time senator for this district. The graduates of the High School at Watsonville 'entered the University of California or the Stanford University without examination. The board of school trustees consisted of Mr. Brewington, president: Mr. Kilburn, clerk, and Mr. Eaton. The newspapers included three weekly papers and one daily. The Register and the Transcript were owned by G. W. Peckham. The Pajaronian was a Republican paper owned by Mr. Radcliffe. Mr. Hetherington owned the Rustler which was an independent paper in poli- tics. The lNatsonville horse teams have won many famous victories. They have made their dashes in world beating time. The sugar factory was very important in 'Watsonville The Western Beet Sugar Company's fac- tory at NVatsonville represented an investment of hundreds of thousands of dollars. It handled hundreds of tons of sugar beets daily. and its aver- age daily output of sugar was in the neighborhood of one hundred thous- and pounds. It paid monthly to employees and farmers over fifty thousand dollars. The beets were bought by the ton, the price ranged from four to seven dollars a ton. The winter of 1889-90 was very wet and Pajaro valley was drenched, the rainfall being forty-four inches. Labor was very cheap, the laborers being regarded as human cattle. Japanese and China- Jil Ihe Old Oak Tree 1nen were mostly employed, because they would work for low wages lhc valley received its name from the river running through it The soldier- under the Mexican Governor, Portola, named the river RIO del Pay tro bird river.

Cfll'C Mr. Columbus Uisiis America In the year 1492, a man by the name of Columbus motored to the capital of Spain to interview the president. After being closeted with him for an hour and a half, the president called a meeting of the cabinet. QSome of the cabinet officers said afterward that they smelt some pre- Volstead liquor on his breath. This, however has nothing to do with the story.j This was the speech that the president made at the opening of the meeting, VVell, fellows, we have some important business to talk over at this session. Mr. Columbus came to me this morning and asked me if we would finance an ocean trip of his in which he would discover a new continent. He is very modest in his demands: three large power launches, fitted up with the newest type of Diesel engines, a radio set in each, fireless cooker, gas range, electric lights, two hundred tough sailors, and a jazz band. If he fails we are to pay him one half million dollars. lf he succeeds, we will pay him one million dollars. Shall we grant him his request? Cabinet members agreed unanimously, All right, Mr. QVV. JJ Bryan Cwho was then secretary of statejf' said the president. Telephone Mr. Columbus that his request is granted, cable the American Indians that Columbus is coming to discover their continent, and attend to all necessary details. With this the president withdrew. Columbus, on being told that his request was granted, immediately began making preparations for his trip. I-Ie,had much canned food stored in the ships, and after making sure that his radio set was functioning properly, he started on his trip. VVhen he was three days out of port, he sighted a submarine. He called to an officer to bring him the apparatus used to transmit photos by radio. Using this apparatus he sent a photo of this sub to Spain, and asked the naval commander to tell him whether it was an enemy or an ally submarine. Less than half a minute later he received the answer of the naval commander. The sub was an enemy to Spain. Columbus quickly ordered the gunners to their posts. The submarine shot a White head torpedo at the ship in which Columbus was. Luckily the torpedo missed the ship and the gunners promptly sank the sub with one well directed shot. To make sure that the U-Boat really had sunk, Columbus directed that a ship should pass over the spot where the opposing boat had gone down and drop a depth bomb. This was done and the squadron proceeded on its way. They had traveled but a very little way, when the crew began to show signs of mutiny. Columbus promptly went into the fo'c'sle where his crew was, and delivered this ultimatum. If you mutiny, I will have you taken up before the first judge we meet when we arrive in America. You will then, in all probability, receive twenty years of hard labor. This served to quiet his men, who gave no more trouble during the remainder of the voyage. Upon reaching America, Columbus was received very cordially by the Indians. He spent the first night in America with the chief of a cer- tain New York tribe. It was very cold, however, as the janitor had for- gotten to turn on the steam heat. The next morning he arose, and boarded a street car which was bound for the down-town district of New York. Upon his arrival he stepped off the car at Fifth and Broadway Streets, and looking across the street he saw a rubber-neck bus about to start on a trip of the city. He boarded this and saw all of the great sights of New York. He saw the Woolworth building, the Battery, Central Park, the Bowery, and many other points of interest. The bus, after having made a round of the city, returned, to its former position. Some of Columbus's sailors wished to remain in New York for a longer time, but Columbus, hearing of the wonderful climate of the Cali- fornia coast, decided to take a trip to California- Accordingly, 'he boarded a west-bound train, and, with his sailors accompanying him, he journeyed to California. On this journey he amused himself by listening to his radio. When the train had just crossed the California border, he was listening to a concert from Portland station slandering the fair name of California by calling its inhabitants relations of lemons and prunes. Thereupon, he re- solved never to visit the metropolis of Oregon. V Upon arriving at the Southern Pacific depot at Third and Townsend Streets in San Francisco, Columbus and his men prepared to leave the train. However. as they disembarked, they were overwhelmed by a crowd of taxi men and negro porters. These were held at bay by the machine gllll squad of Columbus's company. Columbus and his men boarded the train again, and deciding that San Francisco was entirely too hospitable. returned East again. His return trip was very uneventful, and, when he arrived in New York, he sent a radio message to the King of Spain, ask- ing for his million dollars. The King immediately cabled him the money, and Columbus began looking for a profitable way to spend it. He invested half of it in a com- pany that was developing a perpetual motion machine, but, unfortunately, the only perpetual thing that evolved from it was the perpetual loss of his money. Columbus was on his way to invest the other half of his money in an oil company, when he was held up by a thug The thug's words were these. Say, kid, hand over the mazuma before I sock you on the nob. Columbus promptly complied with the request UD.

C7716 Christmas Rai lt was the week before Christmas, and in their cheery living room Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery faced each other across the table. Now, began Mr. Montgomery, importantly waving a number of carefully sealed envelopes, we'll see what the children want for Christ- mas. Dear ine, I hope they haven't set their hearts on anything unreas- onable, murmured his worthy spouse, a little line of worry wrinkling her brow for a moment. Open john's first, Henry. For a moment of silence he scanned the epistle of their eldest son, aged ten. directed to that patron of all good children, Santa Claus. This is easily settled, Mr. Montgomery announced at last, cross- ing his arms in satisfaction. Frankly, I don't mind in the least buying john a bicycle. Do you, Louise ? No, of course not, dear- But what does Mary want? Somehow I have a feeling the others won't be as sensible as john's is. Another envelope was slit open. Better and better! There's not the slightest cause for worry. A couple of dolls and a pair of skates will lift Mary into the very seventh heaven of bliss. But Tommy? I wonder what he wants? The quickest way to find out is to read the letter, suggested the practical Mrs. Montgomery to her less practical husband and-this is what they read: Dear santy claus pleas wil yu bring mee a wite ratt an a babee elefant foi crismus pleas putt the wite ratt in mi stockin butt beter leeve the babee elefant bye the crismus tree. Pleas don forgett em. Tommy. A white rat and a baby elephantf' gasped Mrs. Montgomery. A white rat and a baby elephant, echoed Mr. Montgomery, but he added grimly, I see rather where we had better buy our son a spellerf' How could Tommy think of such awful things, and he's been such a good boy lately! I hate to disappoint him. Why, Henry, he hasn't set off the fire alarm for two weeks now. Hum -- and he hasn't asked for anything else 1. Well. Louise, I think the best thing we can do is to choose the lesser of two evils and go canvassing for a white rat. Thus it happened that two days before Christmas, when Mr. Mont' gomery came home that evening, he rather gingerly carried a mysterious package which he triumphantly waved before the admiring eyes of his wife. The latter had once sighingly confessed to her sister that it was Henry's one great weakness-waving things. The morning paper, a soft boiled egg, all were as one to Mr. Montgomery when seized with enthus- iasm. VVell, I got it, he announced. Sent clear to the city, too. It's the best looking rat you've ever laid eyes on, Louise. Yes, dear, I'm sure it is, but don't you suppose it's rather harmful to move it around that way? VVhy-er?-now you mention it -1 is that Tommy coming? l'd better take it down to the cellar. We can keep it there nicely till Christmas. This he accordingly did. But, alas! Mr. Montgomery's last moments of repose were rudely disturbed, next morning. Henry, get up this minute and come into the kitchen. The agitated yet righteous tones of his wife were not reassur- ing. Look! Henry looked. The custard pie was hardly recognizable while his pet jar of jam -and all around were the half-jam, half-custardy foot- prints of a gentcel and evidently hungry rat. M rs. Montgomery led the way to the cellar. In the side of the cute little cage there was a gaping, well gnawed hole. Tomn1y's white rat had secured his liberty, and tomorrow was Christmas! White rats were few and far between. On Christmas Eve Mr. Montgomery returned waving another package, not so gingerly, however This time Tommy's rat was stuffed, with bright pink eyes, and a very long tail. It will have to do, decided Mrs. Montgomery, reluctantly. At last the children were bustled off to bed. Tommy's blue eyes fairly popped with anticipation. At last Mr. Montgomery emerged from the blackness of the bedroom waving the three little empty stockings. At last Mrs. Montgomery returned them, bulging with goodies, to their places. Mr. Montgomery had barked his shin on the first trip. Peace and quietness reigned. It might well be said - 'Twas the night before Christmas And all through the flat, But one creature was stirring, And that was the rat. Then came Christmas morning, that glorious time of revelry. Tommy was the first to awaken and patter across to his stocking. Then a shriek of delight rent the silence. There, on the very top of his goodies, wiggling his whiskers with enjoyment as he appreciatively gnawed a huge piece of pink taffy, sat the dream of his life, a white rat. Frances Bowker. Have Uou cz Friend? Friendship is love without either flowers or veil. A true friend must love us, must keep all our short-comings and secrets in his heart. must encourage us in our struggles, must sympathize with us in our trials and must be ready to go through fire and water for us, if necessary. The two elements which tend to create friendship are truth and tenderness. Truth is the first test of a friend. Since friendship is no plant of hasty growth , it behooves us to exercise precaution in choosing a friend. It matters not whether he be wealthy or poor, but it matters greatly whether he is false or true. No one should be without a friend, for a person without friends is worse off than a bird without wings. One true friend is sufficient if one believes the saying that true happiness con- sists 11Ot in the multitude of friends, but in the worth and choice. We should all at some time in life be able to say with Kipling Thank God for a trusty chum. The second test of a friend is tenderness. It is admittedly true that we oftentimes show the least tenderness to those whom we love most. Since there are souls in the world who love us and whom we love, we ought not to restrain our tenderness until it is too late. When a person becomes dear to us, truly we are on the way to fortune. and it is our bounden duty to protect the friendship which has been gifted us by combining tenderness with truth. Without friendship the world would be a wilderness. Through friendship, it has become habitable. VVhy is it that we prefer one spot of this world to all others? Generally the answer lies in the certainty that here we are among friends who are dear to us. If any one of us is with- out a friend, the surest way to find one is to be one, for truly it has been written A man that hath friends must show himself friendly. Oscar Maher. C7716 Lady It was a cold, dreary night in midwinter,-a night when the wind wailed like a lost soul as it rushed around the corners,-a night when the familiar darkness seemed strange, terrifying. At such a time, the loving protection of the home is most felt. The mother draws her little ones closer about the hearth'fire, and in the warmth of its rosy glow there is desolation only without. Yet, it was not thus in a certain huge, gray building among the other huge, gray buildings af that world metropolis, New York. A long, dim line of beds lay there in the darkness, and on each narrow cot, a sleep- ing child, motherless. Did I say they were all sleeping? There was one awake. It was tiny Mary trembling there in the dark. Had you asked the attendant about her, she would have answered, Oh, yes! You mean the little girl there on the end-the one with the brown hair and eyes, and the white face? Such a strange child! She spends hours sitting by herself, doing nothing, and she doesn't look well. We're afraid the 'little thing is tubercular. Her father was one of these poverty-stricken artists, and when they found him dead one morning, a few weeks ago, they sent the little girl here. Now, don't you think the next one is pretty? The wealthy Mrs. Hall is going to take her. She'll have a wonderful home. If the little brown eyes weren't so shy, she'd be snapped up quickly enough, but she doesn't show off well. She was such a tiny thing, scarcely five, and she seemed so lone- some and afraid there among the others, the wailing of the wind in her ears and an aching hurt in her heart. She was too little to understand. Then-she thought of the Lady. She loved to think of the Lady. Mary could still remember when her father first showed her the pretty face on the wall, the face of a lady with soft, brown hair and tender, smil- ing eyes. He had told her that it was an angel-very good and very won- derful-and that Mary should love her just as much as she loved him. Mary had always loved the Lady. She used to sit during the long hours when her father worked on his canvas, and watch the picture .'till she knew every line and contour of the pretty face by heart. So now, she lay and thought about the Lady, until, vaguely comforted, she did not hear the wind for a time. ' But it was cold, and she could not sleep. Awful faces seemed to leer at her from the darkness. VVhere was hcr father? Why didn't he come and take her away? A door banged. A blast of icy air rushed through the hall. The wind rose to a shriek outside. She began to cry-little, soft, racking sobs. It was harder to re' member how the Lady looked, in the dark with the wind screaming that way. She wished she could see the picture again. She wanted to sit and watch the Lady smiling tenderly down on her. They had taken it away. It was very cold. Her little hands, as she rubbed the tears from her eyes. were shaking. The wind seemed to be crying too. Why didn't someone come? Suddenly, there was a low rustle. She felt soft arms about her. Someone pressed her close and kissed her. Looking up through her tear- stained eyes, she saw that it was the Lady. When they found her so still in the cold, early morning, they won- dered at the glory of her smile. Manners I have often wondered whether that dignified, old gentleman, St. Peter, ever smiles as he leans over the pearly gates of paradise? Can our actions ever be sufficiently amusing to bring a grin to the countenance of the scrious guardian of the gate? If I should go to heaven, and this ques- tion arises, I shall stake my wings, and harp if necessary, on those little wiles known as company manners. To begin with-there is this exceedingly bold and bald statemenl. I have never seen a company manner yet that wasn't mildly amusing. Have you E' Of course, as manners vary, so does the amount of mirth they pro- voke. One of my favorite varieties, is busily in operation outside my window this very minute. It is the fond-mama manner. But a few moments ago, I watched mama tow young Archibald down the street at full speed, the light of battle in her eye. and determination in her stride. I feared for the unfortunate offspring, but it was wasted sympathy. Now mama stands beneath my window, and with her is another good soul of the same species. Sonny is the evident subject of conversation. VVith no fear of exaggeration, I shall state that mama's present manner would thaw an arctic iceberg with no effort at all. Sonny is making hay while the sun shines, by emptying all the powder out of mama's compact. Then, there is the Hsocietyl' manner. Who ever saw anything fun- nier than the dear lady who tips the scales at two hundred and twenty. and has only just learned to appreciate her own merits since hubby made his million on the sardine factory? She usually sweeps in Cwith the grace of a freighter encountering a stormj just to ask Oh, Olice, ah you going to wearah your ombah beads to-naught? Furthermore, the company manners of daughter and son are a picnic in themselves. Daughter revels in the jazzy side of life. Hers is the best imitation of a tornado to be seen on this side of the Rockies. If she hasn't made you blush from ear to ear within two minutes after her arrival, she considers life isn't worth living. Sonny cultivates the lounge lizard atmosphere. Even the most desperate mosquito skids into space from his glistening pate. A cigarette and a yawn, and brother is ready, come what may! Bored tolerance has been his second name ever since papa got lucky with the sardines. In one word, the three of them are about as natural as a present day complexion. The baby innocence type is also well known and usually highly amusing. Dear little Ann, aged twenty-two and a half is perfectly cap- able of making Daddy feel that somehow he said the wrong thing when he suggested onion-salad for supper, but when Alec arrives she promptly draws the cat from under the stove, and the evening conversation runs like this, Oh, oo little blessed! Isn't he tweet, Alec? Now oo, oo, l11L1StI'lit scratch Ann: no it mustn'tS it must be doodf' etc., etc.. after which she tucks up her underlip, props her eyes open wide and gives a very presentable interpretation of a three year old on her first day at Sunday school. Poor Alec! He is never going to recover from the shock of marrying his little Ann. And finally, there is the goody-goody attitude, so often inflicted upon visitors. Father may steal pennies from a blind man when no one else is around, and mother may even trot off with the radishes from her neighbor's garden, provided said neighbor is not at home, but when com- pany comes they are the heavenly archangels personified. A Sunday swim makes them start in horror, while words cannot express their suspicions of an innocent little remark such as Darn? Why. of course. I do all -1- -- 'v W -1- 1-Y -vw ,v---.. my own. I wonder what Father says when he bumps into the closet door on a dark night? There are manners and manners--pompous, dignified, silly, smart manners. It may be a disagreeable manner: it may be a pleasant one. All I say is, Hats off to the natural manner, but 'raspberry' for these company airs. Of course, if you want to take the trouble just to entertain old St. Peter, it is a worthy cause. I'm certain he will appreciate your perform- ance. But aside from that, when you pretend to be what you're not, there is only one person who is really deceived, and that is 1 you, yourself. 4 EE-E Oh, Uesl Bong! Bong! The library clock struck heavily. Freddie, sou of the Earl of Leeds, glanced at his watch which proclaimed the hour to be eleven. The libary clock was anantique, and was kept for decorative purposes and not for its ability in counting off the hours. The time, how- ever, mattered little to Freddie. He was bothered. To see a young fellow of Freddie's type in such a state was indeed out of the ordinary. He had just passed his twenty-fourth year. He was tall, erect and well built, con- veying the impression of an athlete, and a handsome one at that. His grey morning clothes fitted as though they had grown on him, a fact which in itself is an earmark of a gentleman. A casual looker-on would have said that he should have been out on the golf links instead of brooding in a gloomy mid-Victorian library. But now he was troubled. His mind was entirely upset. For exactly forty-two minutes he had been pacing the libray floor, deep in thought. The cause for all this unaccustomed medita- tion was the will of his great-aunt, which had been read in that very library that same morning. The will provided that great-aunt Isabellefs entire fortune of nearly a million pounds should be transferred to Freddie on his wedding day, with the provision that he be married within three months after her death- Very simple, one would think. Merely let him pick out a girl from his many feminine friends and marry her. With his good looks and family, nothing could be easier. But-one moment, dear reader, in that very direction lay the difficulty. Freddie hated girls. He simply detested them. He had .a mortal fear of them that even he could not ex- plain. Even his relatives of feminine gender were no exceptions. VVhen- ever they visited his father's estate, just out of London, Freddie immedi- ately established himself in the head gardener's house, a good half mile from the enemy. Now, returning to the subject, his great-aunt was actually asking him to marry' one of the horrible creatures. Freddie was shocked. She was asking the impossible. Still-a few quid would come in handy, especially since the guv'nor was becoming deucedly close with the family fortune of late. While Freddie had thus been musing, the library door had opened and Parks stepped in, closing the door softly behind him. Please, sir, he announced in a timid voice, your father says that your aunt Louella and her fourth cousin once removed are arriving on the 4:15 from London. Shall I transfer your belongings to the gardener's house? A look of pain passed over Freddie's face. By all means, he answered-then, Parks, 1-you heard about the will, I suppose? Yes, sir, was the answer. The housekeeper told me about it. A bally mess, isn't it? Yes, sir. VVhat would you adivse me to do about it? That's a hard question, sir- If you want the money, there seems only one way to get it. So it seems. Not speaking any evil of the dead, but great-aunt Isabella must have been a bounder to make such a will. Yes, sir. By the way, who did you say was coming this time? Your aunt Louella and her fourth cousin once removed, a Miss NVhitney of the States. I believe. Shades of Caesar! Aunt Louella is the fat one with the pop eyes: isn't she? I believe so, sir. She has a mean pomeranian, too, hasn't she? Yes, sirf' Let's move at once. She's the worst of the whole family. And forthwith Freddie hastened from the room, followed by his faithful Parks. At 4:20 that afternoon the train pulled slowly out of the little sta- tion of Leeds, leaving two passengers standing alone on the platform. The largest and evidently the oldest was a woman of perhaps fifty years. Her face was round, and red. and studded with two round eyes, which glared in anger. The other was much younger and fairer to look upon. She seemed to be anxiously looking for something. Turning to the older woman she remarked, Probably he forgot that we were coming today, Cousin Lou. Forget indeed, the other answered- He only received the tele- gram this forenoon. His mind certainly hasn't failed him, and he surely can read. We might as well start to walk if you know the way. It can't be ltilhl there's a car. A large grey limousine drew up beside the platform. Assuring himself that he had found his passengers, the chauffeur stepped out and opened the rear door. Sorry to be late, your ladyshipf' he apologized, but the bloomin' car broke down. H'it was runnin' fine when H'I left. Somethin' must 'ave went wrong. When his charges were comfortably seated, the chauffeur climbed back into his seat and the car rolled out of the station grounds. That evening, as fate would have it, Freddie discovered to his utter dissatisfaction that he was without cigarettes. Parks was out for the evening, and no other means presented itself other than that Freddie should venture to the house in search of some. He remembered distinctly having put a package on the top shelf of the bookcase in the library. Deciding to take a chance he started out in the dark. A brisk five minutes' walk brought him outside the French windows of the library which opened on to the terrace. One of these windows was open. Inside a dim light was burning, casting a faint light over the massive furnishings of the room. Freddie stepped gingerly over the sill and made for the spot where he had placed his treasured cigarettes. Having found them, he placed them in his pocket and turned to go out, when the sight that met his eyes caused him to gasp with dismay. There, closing his only exit, stood a girl, dressed in white and unbelievably pretty. The soft glow of the library lamp 011 her auburn hair made it appear as if on fire. Who on earth are you? she inquired. Freddie could see nothing else to do but answer her. Frederick l he answered. Who in thunder are you? None other than Elice Whitney of Richmond, Virginia, to be more exact-your Aunt Louella's fourth cousin, once removed. I've been wait- ing to see you. VVhy weren't you at dinner? Oh, yes-er-a-I don't stay here. I have a little house of my own down the drive, and er-if you don't mind, I'm afraid I must be go- ing. VVith this remark Freddie strove to escape from his enemy and made a step toward the blocked passage. Oh, don't go-yet: we're just getting acquainted. Well-you see-I have to go. I left the water running in-well. anyhow, I can't stay. The enemy was persistent- VVell, she said. then 1'll walk with you down the drive a little way. You don't mind, do you? 'It's ,awfully dark. You might trip on something. Freddie was desperate. Was there no way to be rid of this persistent creature? Oh, I'll hold your arm so that I can't fall. I don't mind the dark- it's romantic: don't you think so? Freddie was lost. He managed to follow the girl out to the terrace. Then, true to his dreaded expectations, he felt her hand slide through the crook of his arm. He began to walk-at a moderate pace at first: then gradually he quickened his step until Elice was fairly trotting to keep up with him. chattering continuously. Finally she burst out with- Did you ever fall in love? She could not have used a more deadly weapon on Freddie. No, he said shortly. Neither have I. But when I do, it will be on a night like this. Isn't the moon lovely? Oh, yes. Long silence ensued. broken only by the sound of their footsteps. Then came another blow. Wouldn't it be funny if you and I should fall in love While I'm here with cousin Lou? She laughed lightly at the idea. It certainly would. - Say-don't you think you'd better go back? It's pretty far now and if you go too far, you might not want to go back alone- Elice looked back toward the house. It could be seen dimly through the trees. Oh, it is much darker than I thought. she said in a low voice. I hate to bother you. but maybe you'd better take me back . Freddie groaned inwardly. All right , he said, and back they trotted. NVhen Freddie reached the gardener's house that night with his dearly-paid-for cigarettes, he was swearing silently. He sat smoking for several hours before the blazing logs in the fireplace, as he thought over the events which had happened earlier in the evening. Finally he arose. Best Titian hair I ever saw, he said to himself. Then yawning widely he strode into his bedroom and slammed the door behind him. The next morning, curiously enough. both Freddie and Elice arrived at the stables at precisely the same moment. Elice insisted that they ride together and Freddie, unprepared with any suitable reason, was forced to comply with her wishes. He said very little and tried innumerable ways of escaping, but she was invincible, and would not be withstood. I The same thing happened many 'times in the next two weeks. Freddie was besieged on all sides by the entering Elice. Everywhere hc went she managed to have some excuse to be there at the same time. One day Freddie was lounging beneath a tree near the gardener's house. drowsily looking at a magazine several months old- It was not long before El'ce happened to stroll by and dropped down on a log beside him. Freddie took no notice of her whatever, and lazily continued to turn the pages of the magazine. Elice said noth'ng for nearly fifteen minutes. a feat very unusual for her. and sat watch'ng Freddie turn page after page. Freddie was wondering what he would do when he reached the end of the book. He pretended to be painfully interested in an advertise- ment for ladies' silk hosiery, and gazed at its illustration for an unseem- ingly long time. Finally Flice broke the silence. Freddie What? he growled. I've come to tell you something. Deep down in his heart Freddie hoped it would be the news that she was leaving on the early morning train. However, he made no remark, and Elice went on. I have noticed the last couple of days that you don't seem to envy yourself when I'm around. Everytime you see me you become a human impersonation of gloom. I guess you don't like me, and I came to tell you that l won't bother you any more. Freddie could not look at her. He had an idea that she might be close to tears, and such a thing would be fatal for him. He kept his eyes glued to the hosiery advertisement and his lips pressed tightly together. Seeing that he had nothing to say, Elice rose and walked quietly away, leaving Freddie victorious, but downcast. just realized it the last couple of days, eh, he muttered- Wonder where she was the rest of the time. -Nevertheless, she's a charming girl. I was a bounder to let her think I didn't want her. I guess I'd better let well enough alone. He again studied the hosiery advertisement in silence, and then flinging the magazine to the ground, he rose to his feet and went back to the gardener's house. About an hour later Elice saw him drive out of the grounds in his low roadster with Parks by his side. Freddie spent a week in London. The reason for the sudden change of atmosphere was that he had no desire to see Elice after the scene which had taken place at Leeds. In a week all would be well: both would forget the affair, and Freddie could return with a clear conscience. At the end of the week. however, Freddie had not forgotten. but he dreaded his return more than ever. Moreover, he was financially unfit to remain in the city. so no course remained but to make tracks for home. Back they went, Freddie, sad and fearful-Parks. enjoying the scenery- When they drove in the gate at Leeds, Freddie thanked his stars that nobody was in sight. He drove straight to the gardener's house and dismounted to await the meeting that he knew was coming, sooner or later. For several days he did not even catch sight of Elice. She certainly was keeping her word, Freddie's conscience bothered him terribly. He knew that a real gentleman would never have acted as he had done toward Elice. The least he could do was to apologize. However, he could not persuade himself to do it. She would immediately be after him with re- newed energy. He would be pursued morning and night. to say nothing of the afternoon. Freddie was perplexed. He knew not which way to turn. He finally resolved to give his conscience another chance and re- solved to think no more of the matter. Then one fine morning, while Freddie was out for .his morning ride on his favorite horse, something happened. Freddie had been walking his horse for some distance and having made very little noise on the soft turf. he came quietly upon a scene which shocked him to the core. Such a disgraceful happening had never been known to take place in those parts. much less in the private grounds of the Earl of Leeds. Freddie looked again to see if his eyes were that there could be no doubt horse just as she had been a for-nothing son of the tavern telling him the truth. They reassured him about the matter. Elice was there on her momentbefore. Beside her was the good- keeper of the village. As Freddie watched. the man slipped into the bushes by the road, and Elice galloped down the road at a good pace. Freddie spurred his horse and soon overtook her. Elice remained aloof. However, Freddie forgot his fear at once, for the family honor was at stake. I hate to tell you he said, but I just saw the whole scene which took place back there- How lovely! I hope you enjoy other people's business. sniffed Elice. S I assure you that it was an accident: nevertheless-that's not the point. 'Call it an accident if you like. 'Never mind about that now. Don't you realize what would hap- pen if this affair got out? If what got out? K 1 'Your carrying on with such a rowdy. VVhose business is it.? That's not the point. You ought to have some respect for family KC Ki honor. KC Are you any better than he? I sincerely hope so. At least he's a gentleman. Oh, yes. I know I was beastly that day, but I've been sorry for it ever since. I beg your pardon. I have to talk to somebody. You surely can't expect me to lead a hermit's life. Aunt Lou sleeps half of the time, and reads the other half of the time, or I'd resort to her. I can't bother your father, because he's always busy, and the maids and butlers are all too timid. Oh, yes, I guess you're right on that point. But all I ask of you is to refrain from picking up trash. I guess that's all- Good bye. . Freddie turned his horse and rode scornfully away. When he reached the gardener's house he was smiling broadly, for he had developed a plan for action. Now or neveh, said he, and set about making preparations. That afternoon, immediately after lunch, Freddie seated himself at a desk and scribbled a brief note. It read as follows: The Hon. Frederick is greatly honored by challenging Miss Whitney to a game of golf this afternoon. I-Ie will call for her at 2:O0. When Parks returned with her note of acceptance Freddie was jubilant. That afternoon they were resting underneath a tree on their way around the links., You play splendidlyf' said Freddie, with an admiring glance. Do you really think so? asked Elice. Oh, yes. Never saw a girl with half as much pep as you have. Oh Freddie. Really! I liked 'you from the very first, but I just couldn't get used to you. Most girls are silly things that drink tea and remark about the salubrious air that -hangs about the estate. You're different- ' I'm glad you thi-nk so. Would you think it funny if I'd ask you to marry me? Why Freddie ! The blow was almost too much for Elice. Freddie was tactful. You see, he said, I have quite a fortune coming from an aunt of mine, so we could live quite comfortably. Do you think you could manage it? ' Not -unless I know you really like me very much. Do you Freddie? Fo1'e! came a warning. Oh, yes. H KC A 4- 'I' V US Student Body Ofiiccrs Vrcsiilcnt . ,,..,,,,,,. Vice I'rcsiclcnt .,.. . Scciwftzlry ...,.....

Vxfe have joined the California Scholarship Federation which was founded in 1921 by Mr. C. F. Seymour of the Long Beach High School. with a charter membership of thirty-three high schools in Southern Cali- fornia. Its aim is to encourage scholarship by awarding to the excellent students of member schools certain tokens of distinction. Membership is determined by a number of points, drawn from grades and outside activities. The students who are members are given the priv- ilege of wearing a small silver VV , Those students who, on graduating. have been members of the society for two-thirds of their attendance are entitled to have a Federation Seal stamped on their diploma and are al- lowed to wear the gold Federation pin. There are six students in our school who are entitled to the honor: namely, Frances Bowker, Katherine Rodgers, Bertha Dick, Louise Fillius, Melba Piroja and Martin Franich. The membership of the California Scholarship Federation includes 'seventy-seven schools ranging from one end of the state to the other, and involving a student enrollment of many thousands. Girls and boys are proud of the distinction of being members of the organization. They are respected by their fellow-classmates, and scholarship is generally recog- nized as a goal in itself. There are boys and girls among the students of our school who ap- pear to scorn an excellence which they find it difficult or impossible to attain. They admire athletic prowess. they seek social eminence, or they are too intellectually anaemic to admire or seek any.scholastic excellence. Yet the fact that scholarship can bring a tangible reward is slowly but surely changing the outlook of the students of the High School. The highest offices of the Student Body are always sought and obtained by those who are proud to recommend themselves as diligent students. Mr. Handshy and Miss Redman have shown their desire to organize this scholarship Society. Vtfithout their efforts. this branch of the society would not have been possible.

Every year it has accomplished bigger and better results. Each year better courses have been introduced. The one outstanding addition this year is the Farm Management course. VVe have been extremely fortunate in securing Mr. W. F. Elder as instructor in this course. Mr. Elder is a University of California grad- uate and is a credit to our department. The club officers this year are: jess Stilwill-President. Elwyn Lundy-Vice-President. Irvin Dethlefsen-Secretary. Fred Holm-Treasurer. Floyd Silliman-Athletic Manager. Arthur Mork-Editor of Publications. Perry Hill-Assistant Editor of Publications. Eldon Brewster-Yell Leader. Our meetings this year have been full of enthusiasm and business. Mr. Stilwill has made an excellent president. Our first social event of the year was the initiation of the Freshmen. Mr. Mulder had the Ag. Shop boys make the paddles a week before the event, much to the delight of our youthful Freshmen. After the initiation they were none the worse for their experiences. Many old members were present to watch the initiation of the New Aggies. The Club was represented at the State Fair at Sacramento, where our judging teams won four ribbons for horse judging. This year we sent an apple judging team to the Annual apple judging event at Berkeley, the team taking third place among some fifteen schools which were compet- ing. Fredericks ranked first on our team: Dalton, seconds Hardy, third. To clown the judging events, our livestock judging team took first place at the Santa Cruz County Fair. where Richard Craemer placed first in the individual judging, and the team, composed of Sllliman. Hardy, and Craemer. took first place in the team event. The Club has been presented with the Cowell Trophy Cup as a reward for livestock judging. The Aggies have now some fourteen ribbons which they have won in judging events. The Club is planning many judging events in the future: namely, the Davis Farm Picnic, the Petaluma Poultry judging Trip, and a trip to Oakland. A Our annual Father and Son Banquet proved to be a tremendous success, and was attended by more than one hundred people. The striking feature of this banquet was that all the eatables were as far as possible products of the farm, every boy having contributed some delicacy from his own farm. It was the genuine co-operative effort of the members of the club that made the banquet a success. Then, too, we were extremely fortunate in having Professor Skidmore of the University of California address us at the banquet. Our monthly newspaper, Better Agriculture has shown rapid de- velopment this year and many excellent copies are now in circulation. In athletics the Aggies have been very active. The basketball team, composed of Scrivani and Dethlefsen, forwards: Weblb, centerg Silliman and Hill, guards, played six games, of which they won four and lost two. AWe are glad to report that we defeated our ancient rivals, Santa Cruz, Salinas, and Hollister in close games. We played a post-season game with Gilroy, where we won by a large score. Gur club was well represented on the High School basketball squad having jess Stilwill, Harry Ashcraft. Arthur Mork, Ralph McGowan, Eldon Brewster, Kenneth Hardy, lllax Vfeedon, Alvin Richardson and Kenneth Perkins on the C. C. A. L. champ- ionship squad. We are now planning a baseball team and the athletic man- ager, Silliman, is busy at work rounding out the track team to compete with Gilroy Aggies on the 18th of April. VVith four successful years behind us we are looking forward to another prosperous and enjoyable year in 1926. H. BAKER W ff: if L. MITCHELL W Block U7 Club JESS STILWILL W :ff 27: H.

The name of the club is Le Cercle Francais, which when translated into English means The French Club. The purpose of the club is to give the students an opportunity to learn to speak French more fluently. The officers for the year are: President, Louise Filliusg Vice-president. Melba Pirojag Secretary, Joe Polifkag Treasurer, Harry Ashcraft. A program is arranged for each meeting. At these meetings as in their French classes, the students must speak French. If this rule is broken they are fined accordingly. The annual French party is held in May. It is necessary to speak French at this party and the program is expected to give the occasion a French atmosphere. The students feel that they are greatly benefited by these meetings. in that they gain a practical knowledge of the language and become better acquainted with the French customs. Spanish Clubs Los Estudiantes lnteliqentes At the beginning of the school year the second year Spanish class adopted a constitution and formed a club. They took as their name Los Estudiantes Inteligentesn, or Intelligent Students. The constitution pro- vided for the following officers: president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer. Each officer was to hold office for two months- The officers for the months of March and April were: President, Winona Sansg Vice President, Arthur Hyde, Secretary, Doris Woolleyg Treasurer, Clinton Allison. Each Monday the club holds its regular meetings. The students prepare special topics to discuss in addition to the business transacted. El Arco-Iris The third year Spanish students resolved to organize a separate club. Various members submitted constitutions, one of which was adopted by the class. El Arco Iris, The Rainbow, was selected as the name of the club. The offices provided were: president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer and reporter. The officers are elected each semester. The of- ficers for the second semester are: President. Bertha Dickg Viee-Presi- dent, Billy Bowkerg Secretary, H. Ashcraftg Treasurer, Vera Craemerg Reporter, Alma Manning. The club holds its regular meetings each Mon- day. Only Spanish is permitted and a heavy fine is imposed upon members who speak English. Aside from the regular business, programs are offered. La Prensa and El Echo, Spanish newspapers, are used. The members also prepare special reports on great Spanish painters, writers and sculptors. C7716 English Club The first new organization to be formed in the high school this year was the Reading, or as its now called, The English Club. According to the Constitution, the original purpose of its formation was to create in students a taste for reading, to cultivate in them a preference for the best type of book, and to encourage them. through free intercourse of ideas. to develop the power of just criticism. During the first part of the term the activities of the club were thus limited to the literary field. Meetings opened with each member's answer- ing roll call by a quotation, the best being chosen as the motto for the day. Besides certain prepared numbers on each program, it was expected that the members should enter into general discussion of certain books which the club studied, but owing to the fact that most of the members did not read extensively enough to make these discussions worthwhile, the society has gradually broadened into an organization which spends much of the time in presenting varied and interesting programs for the entertain- ment of its members. A revision of the original Constitution has changed the name to English Club and the qualifications for membership have been extended to include all students interested in the promotion of good English and literature. An originally large membership has thus been increased, so that the organization at present appears to have a larger number of mem- bers than any other club in the school. The programs which have attracted such a large following have included selections from Shakespeare, among them the farce Pyramus and Thisbe, readings from poets and authors, solos, other musical num- bers, and dances. Especially interesting have been the special programs given on April First and St. Patrick's Day. Meetings are held every other Tuesday during the thirty minute Activity Period. New officers are elected every fourth meeting, so that the opportunity to hold office is open to everybody in the club. The English Club owes its organization and success to the head of the English Department, Miss Aitken: because of her efforts this young but flourishing society gives promise of becoming one of the most worth- while of such organizations in the school. Cooking Club According to the usual custom, the girls taking cooking this year formed their club, and elected the following officers! to guide them safely through the shoals of boiling and baking: President, Iris Beilby- Vice-President, Helen Wilson. Secretary, Carol Dawson. Treasurer, Margie Stevens. Reporter, Helen Wilsoii. The work of the organization included the serving of several ban- quets, one to the football boys and one to the faculty. The football bn- quet took the form of an elaborate Christmas Dinner. The cooking girls planned the menu. did the cooking, and served the banquets themselves. The girls held their monthly meeting in the High School dining room. After each meeting the girls served delightful refreshments, which were prepared by them. On St. Valentine's Day the girls sent one hundred bags of candy to the crippled soldiers at Palo Alto. The club tends to promote interest in the all-engrossing feminine subject, cooking. It is hoped that the wives and mothers of to-morrow will be more efficient housekeepers because of this training. 5,513 - . 2 .rAn,x9a5 MM Y H WL, ' 2 M 'fr' -E . wr s W eff! iz ef M --E f ' Ili :E 5.

Hljyel Bye! l DA DDY- Lt PNG-LIQGS VA Nl' SPOW Football 'l'h1'oug'hout one of the most successful football seasons in the his- tory of Vllatsonville lligh, our victorious football team has completed a hard schedule with a record of five victories, one tie, and two defeats. The team played three practice games. At the end of one week of practice VV. Lf ll. S. encountered Monterey in a practice game. After having outplayed their rivals for three quarters, the boys received a bad break when a Monterey man intercepted a forward pass in VX'atsonville territory and ian for a touchdown, making' the score Monterey 6-W. U. lfl. S. 0. The boys, after a second hard week of practice, encountered the Pacific Grove team at XYatsonville. The defeat of the previous Saturday had taught the boys a lesson, as the score may indicate: XY. Lf. ll. S. 3.3-Pacific Grove 0. The team then started the C. C. .-X. I..

S. 0-Hollister O. On the following Saturday Watsonville played Gilroy in a practice game. Our boys were slow in starting, but in the second half they played football to beat Gilroy: W. U. H. S. 13-Gilroy 0. Our next victim was Santa Cruz, whose team almost scared W. U. H. S. by scoring two touch-downs. McMasters and his educated toe featured in the third victory for W. U. H. S. W. U. H. S. 33-Santa Cruz 13. Salinas, having so far outclassed her opponents. came to VVats0nville, intent on showing Watsonville how to play football, but Watsonville started with a bang , and long runs by Eaton, Stilwill. and Baker, together with the capable generalship of Roth, secured a decisive victory for Watsonville: W. U. H. S. 32-Salinas 0. Having won the A. Section Championship, the team tackled King City B. Section Champions. After a hard-fought battle, in which McGinnis and McMasters showed qualities as football players, Watsonville finally defeated its rivals: W. U. H. S. 21-King City 14. Being desirous of winning further honors, our team played San Mateo, P. A. A. Champions, but the boys had stepped out of their class and consequently were defeated: VV. U. H. S. 6-San Mateo 42. The game was later forfeited on account of the ineligibility of one of San Mateo's backfield men. Our teams consisted of the following: Ends. Frank McMasters, Albert McGinnis, 'Lloyd Mitchell, Seba Bronson and Clinton Allisong Tackles, Dale Huntsman, Alden Cox, Arthur Mork and Ralph McGowang Guards, Adrian Cano, Fred Holm, Floyd Silliman, and Walter Wilkinsong Centers, George Brewington and Rolland Richardson: Halfbacks, Forrest Roth, Arthur Eaton, Whipple Gregerson. Donald Newellg Fullbacks, Captain Stilwill, Harry Ashcraft and Phil Baker. Albert McGinnis was named All Northern California High School End on Husky Hunt's All Star Team, Stanford. Arthur Eaton was given honorable mention as halfback. - Another cup fills the trophy case of old VVatsonville Union High School. . Basketball At the opening of the 1925 basketball season our prospects for a championship were not so bright as in the year previous, but an eager team of inexperienced boys answered the call of Mr. Briggs, who set to work moulding the team, which three months later became champions of the A Section of the C. C. A. L. ' The teams in the league this year were evenly matched and all the games were very close and nope of them was easily won. Our season started at Salinas. Our lightweights showed remarkable form and had no trouble vanquishing tif Burbank lightweights. The big game, however. was not so easily won and it was not until the pistol was fired that the W. U. H. S. was declared superior. W. U. H. S. Unlimited 13-Salinas 9. VV. U. H. S. Limited 27-Salinas 6. With one victory to our credit we played Santa Cruz on our home court, the following Friday. The Santa Cruz team consisted of veterans who set a terrifie pace and were leading throughout the greater part of the game, but VV. U. H. S. turned and snatched the game from Santa Cruz in the last two minutes of play. VV. U. ll. S. clearly showed in these last two minutes the fighting spirit which has won many a contest for VVatsonville. The lightweights sustained their able work and defeated Santa Crux. W. U. H. S. Unlimited 10-Santa Cruz 8. VV. U H. S. Limited ll-Santa Cruz 6. Having been thus far successful, we journeyed to Hollister the next lfriday and met the well-coached Hollister teams. The lightweight contest was very close, but with the admirable work of Brewster and llellisier. who were ably assisted by l'asley, lflalcer, Seurich, and llardy, XY. U. ll. S. defeated the Hollister quintet. The big game proved to be a thriller. The Black and Gold got the jump on Hollister and won the game by a fair margin. NN . U ll. S Unlimited 19-Hollister ll. XV.

The Salinas teams came to Vlatsonville with a strong determination to conquer the Black and Gold . Our lightweights easily defeated Salinas as was remonstrated by their first meeting, but the Salinas heavyweights made good their determination and when the battle was over.

Sfs winning both games from Hollister, on the following Friday. VV. U. H. Unlimited 13-Hollister 9. VV. U. H. S. Limited 17-Hollister 2. This growing victory gave VV. U. H. S. the undisputed championship to the A. Section of the C. C. A. L. VV. U. H. S., having won this honor for three consecutive seasons, is allowed to keep this cup as a perpetual trophy of the school. Alter the completion of the A. Section season. we played King City and Pacific Grove, winners of the B. Section. at Pacific Grove. XVe met a superior team in both cases and we were beaten in our last games. The season's record consists of five victories and two defeats. the iightweights and heavyweights having lost and won an equal number of games. The heavyweights included the following men: Captain: jess Stilwill. Forwards: Phil Baker. Harry Baker, Arthur Eaton, and Arthur Keefe. Centers: jess Stillwill, Charles Spencer. Ralph lXlcGowan. and R. Richardson. Guards: Harry Ashcraft. Arthur lllork, Richard Craemer. XVhipple flregerson. The lightweights were: Captain: Eldon Brewster. ' Forwards: Eldon Brewster, XValter Vellisier and Kenneth Hardy. Center: Stephen Scurich. Guards: Amos Paslay, Robert Baker, and Kenneth Perkins. The substitutes were Max XVcedon, A. Richardson, G. Gregerson and Harry Takesuye. All our success in athletics for this year and for the last three years we owe to that man who has placed NVatsonville high in athletics, and who has developed championship teams from poor material. A lion,s share of the credit must therefore go as a tribute to our coach, L. M. Briggs. I.IlQlITXYICIGHT BASKETBALL Baseball The baseball league this year consists of Santa Cruz, Hollister. Monterey, King City, Salinas. and VVatsonville. .Xll indications point to- ward a very successful season. The schedule has not been completed at the time of this writing and a detailed review of the season cannot be had. XYatsonville has played one game. the worthy opponent being the 'liatliing Beauties from Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz came to Wlatsonville with a strong line-up and a determination to win, but were given a fierce battle by the Black and lloldf, .Xt this point are in order a few words about the team that opened the 1925 baseball season. Un the mound we have the old reliable. Stork Novacovich, whose baffling curves have baffled many a worthy batsman. lf the renowned Stork can't stand the onslaught of the op- posing batsmen, we have Venus Browne to take the mound and stop the hitting. On the receiving end of Novacovich's curves, we have two capable men, George Yokoyania and Fred Holm. Fred has been im- proving and may prove to be the mainstay behind the bat. That man. cover.ng first, is Bobbie Scurich, whose fielding will help the team. Toniniie Lister may fill in, at first, if necessary. At second, we have the smallest player in the C. C. .X. I... the midget, Miz Knego. Miz is small, but if you like action, watch him. Arthur lfaton is our substitute second baseman and infield utility man. Shortstop is well filled by VValter l'ellisier and llarry Takasuye. These two boys are only Fresh- men, and will do well next year- Harry Shiraehi is fill'ng Ty Rowan's vacant shoes at third base in excellent manueri he sometimes takes a turn at pitching. ln the outer garden we have. in left field, the hard hitting .Xdrian Cano: in center field, joseph Crossetti, whose two-bagger in the Santa Cruz game had a big influence on the score. ln right field is stationed lirnest Scrivani, an excellent fielder and a neat hitter. That ILXSICISALI, 'l'l'IAfXI 1 comprises the personnel of the VV. U. H. S. baseball team- Much can bc expected of them in their coming games. The Santa Cruz game was a tight contest, and until the last man was out in the ninth, it was hard to pick the winner, which in this case happened to be Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz 3-VV. U. H. S. 2. Santa Cruz scored one run in the first and one run in the second, making the score two to nothing in their favor. VV. C. H. S. tied the score in the sixth on a walk, a two-bagger by Hjoeu Crossetti and two perfect bunts by Miz Knego and Nliobbiel' Scurich. Novacovich pitched an excellent game and did not let Santa Cruz have a single earned run. Stork'7 had one of his unlucky days. In the seventh, Santa Cruz scored on an error, making the score 3 to 2 in their favor. VVatsonville rallied in the ninth. but were unable to score and, consequently, Santa Cruz Hcopnedl' time honors. After this first defeat. the Black and Gold is determined to win the other four games and win the C. C. A. A. L. championship and add it to her long list of basketball and football trophies. You will hear from Watsonville in these coming games. Track Owing to adverse conditions for track at our high school, XV. U. ll. S. is not strong in track. We haven't a good track or good track equip- ment, which is essential for a good track team. However. NV. U. H. S. has produced quite a number of good track stars, and has always made a creditable showing. The only meet entered this year was the C. C. A. L. meet at Hol- lister, April 4. jess Stilwill earned his sixth star by taking first in thc discus a11d second in the 440 yard race. George Cowles tied for second in the pole vault and ran some close races in the lightweight 50 and lC0 yard dashes. Alwin Richardson took third place in the high jump and 'l'RAl'li 6 ought to do better next year, as he is only a Freshman now. Lloyd Mitchell placed third in the shot put. This is the third consecutive track meet in which Mitchell has taken points for the Black and Gold . Arthur Eaton ran a close fourth in the 100 and 220 yard dashes. Floyd Silliman col- lapsed 40 yards from the tape in the 880 yard run. He was a cinch for second place, if he had not become exhausted. The track squad for 1925 was: jess Stilwill, George Cowles, Dale Hockabout, Milton Burdick, Alwin Richardson, Rolland Richardson, Arthur Eaton, Nelson Giberson, Floyd Silliman, Lloyd Mitchell, Kenneth Blohm, and Seba Bronson. ls This a Record? t Three years ago a man joined the faculty of the VVatsonville Union High School- Before his coming nobody ever heard of W. U. H. S. ath- letic teams' winning any games or championships, because the teams of VV. U. H. S. were always on the short end of the scores. The school spirit died, and the students didn't support athletics for the simple reason that the teams were always losing. Something was lacking and the burdens of restoring the teams of W. U. H- S. to a winning standard rested upon the the shoulder of this man. What has he done since he has been at our school? In the year 1922-1923 W. U. H. S. won the unlimited and the limited basketball cham- pionship of the Coast Counties Athletic League, and also defeated the Peninsula Athletic League Champs. lt captured the baseball champion- ship and was second to Salinas in honors for football. In 1923-24 W. U- H. S. won both limited and unlimited basketball championships of Section A. C. C. A. L. It took second in both baseball and football, and in 1924-25 W. U. H. S. won the C. C. A. L. football championship for the first time, and also repeated by winning both the unlimited and limited baseball cham- pionship of A. Section of the C- C. A. L. The baseball season is not com- pleted, but the Black and Gold are ready for another championship. Who is this man? He is Lewis M. Briggs, our coach. He is an asset to our school and to him goes all the credit for Watsonville's splen- did showing in athletics in the last three years. He has made an excel- lent record, and the Associated Students want to take this opportunity of thanking Mr. Briggs for what he has done for them, and hope that he will bring many more championships to W. U. H. S. in the future. Cyirls' Hihlclics interscholastic games are no longer held in girls' athletics. Last year basketball as a league sport was abandoned by the school and this year there will be no league schedule in baseball. To replace the league games. interclasss games are held. All Star Teams will take the place of regular school teams. Any girl who qualifies for an All Star Team will receive an All Star letter or emblem. a black star on a gold circle background. Basketball An All Star Basketball Team was chosen this year as usual. Practice games were held preliminary to the choosing of the team. liach section in physical training was divided into two divisions which competed against each other. A Interclass games were held after school. The following schedule was played: S Oct. 10.-Freshmen vs. Seniors, 16-5 favor of Sophs. juniors vs. Seniors, 12-6 favor of Seniors: Nov. 3-lfrosh vs. juniors, l9fl8 favor of Juniors. Sophs. vs. Seniors. l8-17 favor of Sophs. Nov. l-l-Juniors vs. Sophs, 18-13 favor of Sophs. lirosh vs. Seniors, 28-4 favor of Seniors. lirom the results of these games, the All Star Team was chosen by Mrs. Briggs and the girls most interested in basketball. Names of candi- dates for positions on the team were voted upon. The results were as follows: .fill Star Team Katherine Rodgers, Frances Bowker. forwardsg Violet Holgerson. Velma McBride, guards: Louise Fillius. side center, and Melba l'iroja. center. .fllhlelic Badge 'Test The Athletic Badge contest was introduced into this school by the new physical education teacher, llliss Quay. The tests consist of a series of field sports, testing the physical ability of each girl. They are designed to help a girl in gaining body control. Those who succeed in passing the tests are eligible to Athletic Badge Pins. Prior to March 16, fifty-six girls had qualified for Pin No. 1. Posture Tests Posture tests are held every month in each section of physical edu- cation. The posture is judged according to standard charts issued by the American Posture League. Those who succeed in passing the three tests for two consecutive months receive a Posture Pin. The following are eligible for these pins: Frances Bowker. Alta Holm, Stella Gilbert, and Isabelle Trevethan. Health Crusade Miss Quay has started a crusade among the girls who are under- weight, to stimulate the desire for normal weight. The underweights keep weekly charts showing what they have do11e to gain. The number of girls who have increased in weight is very much larger since the beginning of the crusade. Miss Quay should receive a good deal of credit for the wo 'lc she has done. - llll -is Fri?
