 There's no thrill in easy sailing when the skies are clear and blue, there’s no joy in merely doing things which any one can do. But there is some satisfaction that is mighty sweet to take, when you reach a destination that you thought you’d never make.—Spirella. Page Ten

Julia Waits Kathleen Kerlin Senior Class Itistorn In the fall of 1927 one of the most important events in the history of Winslow High School occurred. These (shall we call them students?) at once became noticed in school activities. In our Freshman year, Julia Waits took second place for piano solo at Flagstaff, and Ambrose Baca won first place for his saxaphone solo. The class had lettermen in football, basketball, and track. Everyone who was in school at the time remembers the Sophomore dance and what a fine time he had. The class again shone in athletics. Ambrose Baca again won first place at Flagstaff for his clarinet solo. As Juniors, the class of 1931 sponsored many activities. A fine Junior-Freshman dance was given. The class play “The Mummy and the Mumps” was a huge success. And, of course, the “Jungle Prom” was the “swellest” prom Winslow High School has yet seen. There were ten lettermen from this class on the football team, two on the basketball team and two in track. At the inter-scholastic contest, James Whiteaker won first place in both boys’ solo and oration and Apolinar Rodriquez won first place for the trumpet solo. The saddest blow the class has ever known came when they were Juniors. Sam Curtis, our beloved classmate, passed away. As high and mighty Seniors, these once young and green students excel more than ever. They had eleven lettermen on the football team and four on the basketball team. Matias Gallegos, a Senior was this year’s captain for the football team, and David Parker was chosen captain for the spring track team. “The Lucky Break”, as “The Mummy and the Mumps” received much praise. A number of our class-mates are now working in different departments for honors in the scholastic contest. Page Twelve
