ALUMNI ASSOCIATION An important link between the students still attending Glendale Union High School and the graduates in college and in the business world is the Alumni Association, an organization that is one of the oldest in the school, having been founded in 1902. One of the most important works carried on by this group was the establishment of a Scholarship fund originated for the purpose of aiding worthy students through school. The fund was compiled from receipts gathered from special alumni performances in the assembly. These performances were in the form of a series of plays and dances which were considered among the prominent events of the year. Immediately after the war days the association reor- ganized and began a long series of very successful years promoting friendship between the school students and the graduates. The first revival of the meetings was in 1924 when the group promoted a new form of Home Coming Day, which included a dance and a baby show. Since that time the organization has continued to foster annual meetings and this year the group has completed a big program of entertainment. The officers of the Alumni Association for the year 1928-1929 were: Andre Jerome Andrews Jean Williams - Miller Fishel - ■ - Ellsworth De Parcq - Bert Foster President ] ' ice-President Secretary Corresponding Secretary Treasurer 30 ]
