DON EDWARDS Four years is a long time; and yet, it seems no more than a few months ago that we, the members of the Class of June, 1945, trod uncertainly beneath the portals of Alameda High School. From the day of our introduction to Alameda, it was evident that our class was destined to become the greatest ever graduated. The achievement of this success was not easy. The trail was long and hard, and it was the fine leadership we had throughout these four years that made the ascent possible. A good start in financial affairs is one of the first essentials of class success in High School. We secured this essential in our Freshman term by giving two dansants, each of which helped to raise the balance in the bank. When Circus Day came in our High Fresh- man term, we were ready and our class helped in a great part to make that Circus Day one of the best ever enjoyed at Alameda. Among the many activities of our Sophomore year was the Soph Hop, “‘The Carefree Capers,” ably managed by Don Pries and Jane Formosa. We elected as our presidents in this year Howard Seymour and John Slater. Each did a fine job in his respective term of office. Then came the time revered by all lower classmen and remembered fondly by those above. Yes, we were upper classmen. Our list of activities continued with vigor, and under the very fine management of Buzz Thompson and Peggy Daley, we presented “‘The Moonlight Fantasy,” which will be remembered by all as one of the greatest Junior Proms given at Alameda High. As Circus Day appeared again, we found our chief weak- ness, that of joining with the rest of the school to have the best time ever. Our presidents this year were Ben Neff and Bob Asche.
