W DEL PUERTO she told us was that Paul Carlson is a wealthy merchant in San Jose, and that he had married a Swedish girl. We didn't have anything planned for the afternoon, so we decided to take in the football game between U. S. C. and Stanford. It was a grand game, and even more so to us when we learned that our classmate and leader, Charles Correia, was Stanford's coach. It was wonderful to meet in a group at such a game, and, of course, we were proud to think that this coach who was winning! so much fame and praise had been our own classmate in by-gone days. Charlie told us that Paul Kilcher and Bert Bertol- osso had attained honorable positions. Paul is a professor of history at Stanford, and Bert is a congressman, he said. The same evening those of our class who were together in Los Angeles went to a large restaurant for dinner. We were waiting to be served when a very short pretty waitress came up to us. Looking at her, I thought to myself, Don't you resemble some one I know?', And sure enough, it was Louise Fraley, who used to be so small. Louise said that Arnold Rucker was a chef in the restaurant. Both Arnold and Louise promised to be'at our banquet. We agreed to hold it at the Hotel I-Iughson in Modesto. Arnold said that several of our classmates were still living around Patterson. Delmo Pezzoni has attained quite a fortune as a dairymaan. Charlotte Valerius has married a wealthy farmer and is happily settled down as a housewife. Robert Dearing is a prosperous bean grower in Patterson. Robert Welty is now in charge of his father's grain ranch and has married a girl from Tracy. Louise told us that she had seen about the banquet in the Los Angeles Times. Now, of course, we couldn,t imagine how that had gotten there. But, upon investi- gation, we learned that Mary Bertolosso is a journalist for the paper, aand she had heard of our plans through her brother. Mary told us that she would write to the classmates which we had located. The entire class of '28 was present at the reunion, and several of the schoolmates gave information concerning their careers since leaving high school. Our class teacher, Mr. Wellerneyer, was unable to be present, however, because he was in Germany doing scientific research. We were all glad to have the opportunity to meet as a class again and discuss old high school days. Before our reunion concluded, it was decided to meet in ten years at the Hotel Del Puerto in Patterson for another assembly, at which we could again review pleasant memories of good old P. U. H. S.

junior Class The class of 1929, with two milestones of its high school career bravely encountered and triumphantly conquered, has journeyed upon the third year with eight and twenty live-wire juniors. To direct our course aright during the first semester, Lauren Morgan was sagaciously elected to execute the president's responsibilities, Cecelia Fay was chosen to administer the office of vice president, and Richard Glotfelty as scretary-trasurer. The incumbent officials discharged their duties so satisfactorily and efficiently that they were unanimously re-elected for the second semester. The ingenuity of our adviser, Mr. Robinson, influenced the achievements of our class during the year. The junior girls did not neglect any athletic opportunities. Anita Gamma, Cecelia Fay and Dolores Medalen became members on the first team of basketballg while Emma George, Mable Germolus, Mabel Carter and Myrtle Germolus obtained positions on the second team. ln tennis, Helene Olsen represented us on the doubles team at the Tracy tournament. Several other girls played on the volley ball team, including Captain Violet Carlson. As for the boys, their athletic accomplishments are worthy of remembrance. The participants in football were Masten Spencer, Walter Kling and Perry Smith. Lane Hart, Norval Greene, Orthon Nelson, Richard Spencer, Wialter Kling, Perry Smith and Lauren Morgan held positions on the various basketball divisions. Undoubt- edly the boys will enter. into the later sports of the school season, such as baseball, track and tennis, displaying just as much zest. These glimpses into the annals of our class indicate the efforts which each mem- ber has put forth, not only in self-interest, but also in order to promote the general welfare of' the educational institution towards which we all bestow our loyal efforts.
