JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY When first the class of 1928 entered the portals of Corona High School, the foresighted at once recognized in them a spark of genius not to be overlooked. The ensuing three years have more than fulfilled their expectations. As freshmen, the girls set a rapid pace in athletics by taking two out of the three possible class championship — baseball and volley-ball. Four of the girls received the school letter in baseball, and one girl received it in tennis. Two members of the class received the old Eng- glish “C” for debating, and the freshmen declamation took third place in Forensic. Social activities were not neglected. The class picnic, held at Cold- water, was a great success and was enjoyed by all who attended. And no less successful was the clever stunt presented by these freshmen before the Student Body at the annual rally. With the beginning of the second year, the boys of the class began to be prominent in the field of athletics. They won the “class C” inter- class track; one made the baseball team, and several of the boys of ’28 were members of the midget football squad. And at the end of the football season, the class was proud to be able to say that several of its members had received football letters. There is no doubt that the representatives of the class on the lightweight and midget basketball squads and the representatives in the Tri-county Track meet helped Corona High win honors. The girls, determined not to be outdone, again won the interclass baseball cup. Three of them made the school baseball team; four, the basketball team; and two, the tennis team. However, athletics did not hold the entire attention of the class, for it was victorious in the interclass debates and had five members on the school debate team, besides having time to enjoy a class picnic at Pick- ering Park and take leads in the operetta, “The Bells of Beaujolais.” This, the junior year, has been a marvelous success for the class of ’28. As a result of hard work and diligent practice on the part of those interested, the Junior class was represented this year on all the teams, both athletics and debate. But the most important event of the year to juniors is the Junior- Senior banquet, to be given on the evening of May 27. Very efficient and competent committees have been appointed and plans are rapidly being made, so that, judging from past records of the class and the interest shown in the affair, the banquet will be an event long to be remembered.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY On September fourteenth, nineteen hundred twenty-five, the present Sophomore class, having passed the milestone of grammar school, entered the portals of high school. Little did we know of the path that led to the next milestone, the completion of our freshman year. But gradually aided by the friendly counsel of the faculty and the helping hands of the upper classmen, we were able to traverse that part of the path successfully. Another milestone had been passed, we were now sophomores ready to take an active part in school life, and as we gathered together again, we realized that a great change had taken place. We now turned our footsteps toward a higher goal. We determined to work with the rest of the classes as one body for they glory of the school, not as a separate group for our own glory. Endeavoring to reach this goal, members of our class, both boys and girls, have represented the school on all athletic teams, as well as in dramatics. Also, while participating in these activities, we have upheld the scholastic side of school life. But the greatest progress toward our goal has been effected through each member’s co-operation in doing the little things; things that are not difficult to do, but are so often neglected by the students. We have kept always before us the ideal: “True worth is in being, not seeming, In doing each day that goes by Some little good ; not in dreaming Of great things to do bye and bye.” Now as this school year is nearing its close, we are approaching our third milestone, and, as we look down the long vista of markers in our educational life pointing to success, we hope that we shall aways have such able assistance and such good companionship as we have thus far enjoyed.
