Woodburn Homecoming Is
Enjoyable Event Though
Football
Woodburn The fourth
burn high school which was held in the school auditorium
Friday evening was just what the name implies a real
homecoming and the most enjoyable one ever held at W. H.
S. It was not necessary to stage a big football game as is
so often alone by other schools to get a crowd. A simple lit
tle card sent to each alumni wlth ,
the words, "Your Alma Mater Calls . a A mvf ir
You." was sufficient to bring
large number of alumni homeward
and the building seemed bubbling
over with the W. H. S. spirit.
Woodburn Is especially proud to
claim Judge Arlie O. Walker, the
youngest circuit Judge in the state
of Oregon, as a native son and a
graduate of Woodburn high scnooi
of the class of 1913 and was highly
honored to have him as the princi
pal speaker at the homecoming, in
his address Judite Walker stated
that he was born within one-half
mile of the present high scnooi, tne
son of pioneer parents, his father
having come to Woodburn 78 years
ago and his mother 60 years ago. He
received his entire publio school ed
ucation In the Woodburn schools
and this was his first visit since
his graduation 16 years ago. His
talk touched on the early conditions
in Woodburn and In the Woodburn
.schools and some Interesting Inci
dents were related linking the past
with the present.
The program opened with an in
strumental selection by Miss Eliza
beth Miller and the assembly was
called to order bv student body pres
ident, Adrian Schooler. Dear. Old
High School was sung witn spirit,
led by Jessie Sims and Mtiarea
Smith an a welcome was extended
by Adrian Schooler and Superin
tendent Bain. A response was made
by Ray Olatt of the class of 1912,
and this was followed by a saxo
phone duet by Charles Byers and
John Kinns.
Roll call of classes showed the
earliest graduate present to be Mrs.
Marie Schet Simmons ol tne cuss
of 1910. The years represented and
their numbers were 1810-1. 1912-3,
1913-4. 1914-2. 1919-1, 1921-1, 1922-
3, 1923-9, 1924-3, 1923-t, 1926-9,
1927-11, 1928-12, 1929-26.
A vocal number by Miss Ruth
Mitchell was followed by short talks
by past student body presidents.
Franklin Tyler, "28, Oordon Van-
Cleave. "26. wmneid Aatunson. -xi,
Rex Oarrison, 18, and Win ton Hunt
29.
Another group of school songs by
the assembly were given with great'
gusto and school yells led by Ralph
Mibier and Leonard ueann proved
that the alumni had not lost their
pep. Adrian Schooler gave a talk
on The Present of W. H. 8." In
which he mentioned the new school
busses, the cafeteria, the handbook,
the splendid spirit, growth and co
operation as outstanding factors In
the success of W. H. s.
A pleasing vocal trio by Misses
Grace and Edith Schrock and Opal
Dickey preceded the address of
Judge Walker, which was followed
by a solo by MUs Juan It Hicks,
'29, accompanied by Miss Rose Rich
ards, '26.
John Nelson, yell king of 1929.
led in several yells and developed
so much enthusiasm that he almost
wrecked the stage decorations. John
