LA COPA DE ORO 17 Miss Knapp's influence, and now travels about demonstrating the mar- vels that can be accomplished on an Underwood-when one knows how. Marie Madsen and Alma came in together-still not separated after this long time. Marie is private secretary to the president of the Tynan Lumber Co. in San Francisco. She has mended some of her ways and asked me to be sure to tell you that she isn't absent from her work every Monday, as she used to be from school, because she couldn't stand to think of beginning the week until Tuesday. l imagine Alma had something to do with this reformation. She's a nurse-and talk about business-like! I hardly recognized her at first-her freckles are all gone. She discovered a freckle lotion in her medical laboratory that successully removed them. Of course you'll wan-t to know which ones are teachers. I should have told you right at first, Edwina is teaching physical education in the Berkeley High School. She didn't appear in evening dress- too effeminate for her. She wore a mannish suit, a stock and ground gripper shoes. She must be very successful, for her team in basketball won the state championship this year. Dorothy is teaching too-art, in Los Ange- les High School. But, now for a little gossip. She took us girls aside and told us she's to be married this summer. Another good teacher throwing away her career. She wants me to ask you Miss Wallace's addressg she wants her advice about a good cook-book. Miss Graf, if you ever have any legal transaction, Loyal is your man. I hear he has won many difficult cases and I frequently see him quoted in the San Francisco Examiner. He won't talk about it though- he's as modest as ever. Between courses--last night-Marcia sang for us. Her opera com- pany is in San Francisco right now and we're all going to-night to hear her. She has developed into a wonderful little song-bird,--and We all enjoyed hearing her as much as usual. I wish Miss McCully could hear about Edward Padgham. I-Ie's a Latin professor at U. C. and is said to be quite an authority on the sub- ject. He hasn't changed a bit-just looks a little more severe perhaps. I certainly thought that if any one would be a professor it would be Earl -but he's a Civil Engineer and had his pockets filled with note books and data just as he used to when he was Student Body president. Lavina Dani has taken up the work of Household Chemistry. She is employed in the laboratories of the Royal Baking Powder Company, experimenting on new recipes. Della has decided to try recipes too- but in the home. All we could get her to talk about was how Bill likes his steak and how she makes hot biscuits every morning for breakfast. She is as young looking as ever and has the same cute King- Tut bob. EVA. P. S. All seventeen wish to be remembered to you.

16 LA COPA DE ORO shoulder, and getting by with it, to Leslie Behen. My happy smile and sparkling eyes I wish to leave with Ruth Parker. I, James McGowan, do bequeath my affectionate steadiness with one girl to Hubert Garner, and my School Savings Account to the stu- dent Body Treasury. I, Della Herbert, do bequeath my Spunky Ways to Marie Chiocca and my exceptional ability in sewing to Dorothy Baker. I, Rilla McReynolds, do bequeath to Alice Baker a little booklet which I have written, entitled How to Manage a Man Successfully. I, Edward Padgham, do will my little sweet voice to Eleanor Brownlee and my ability to walk about without knocking down the furniture I leave to John Leak. Signed and Sealed this seventh day of June, 1924. BK II' 214 Senior Class Prophecy King City, Calif. June 8, 1932 Dear Miss Graf: It is just eight years ago yesterday that our class received their diplomas from K. C. H. S. Goodness, how time has flown-it seems such a little time ago. But its true, for last night we held that reunion that we promised ourselves on Commencement night. We all missed you and I know you will want to hear what we are doing, so I shall quickly write it all down while it is still fresh in my mind, and Lefore Carl Smith comes to call for me. He has a great line of taxis and is giving us a sight-seeing tour of King City. I'll try to get some pictures to send you-you Wouldn't recognize the town-it's a city since oil was struck on the Lacrabere and Barbree ranches. Marie, you'll be interested to know, is living in France now-has a chateau of her own- and is now Frenchie indeed. But-how I do miss her here. She has been sitting for her portrait in Paris--and the artist is Rubye. Miss Weeks certainly started her out well--she's very popular in Paris art circles and has adopted many peculiar Bohe- mian ways. VVell- she dropped her work and she and Marie came over together. It goes without saying of course that Rilla and James are married and she bosses him around in her same old way. James is as meek as ever too-in fact they both look and act exactly as they used to. We were wrong when we supposed James would be a dentist-hes made quite a name for himself in athletics and is going to be in the Olympic games this fall. Pat came sauntering in as usual about fifteen minutes late- but was as undisturbed as usual. She went on with her typing, due to
