SENIOR HISTORY ' Four years ago in 1932, fifty freshmen entered the Rio Vista Joint Union High School. A class meeting was held and jane van der Hoogt, Betty Emigh, Catherine Flodin, and Ralph Pezzaglia were chosen as officers, with Mr. David Ruby as adviser. These freshmen were welcomed by the sopho- mores who gave them a delightful reception. In the following spring the newcomers returned the dance. After a summer vacation of several weeks, the class returned, and began with renewed enthusiasm. It was their duty this year to give a reception to the incoming freshmen, and they did this faithfully. The oHicers for the year were Ralph Pezzaglia, VVarren Smith jr., Katharine Elliott, and Jack Talbert, with Mr. L. A. Duliield as adviser. During the third year, the members of the class proved their acting ability by successfully presenting an entertaining three-act comedy, Second Childhood. Later on in the year they gave their Prom, which was a very enjoyable affair. That year Ralph Pezzaglia, Verdie Gordon, Iiddie Nakano, and Betty Iimigh were leaders, and Mrs. Eleanor Simpson was the adviser. The otiicers during the fourth and last year of this class of 1935, were Warreii Smith jr., Richard Brown, Carmelita Cosio, and Mrs. A. J. Vandiveer, adviser. This year the seniors gave the animal senior ball, which was their last social affair. Later on, in the spring, they presented their senior play, Balmy Days, a most fascinating and humorous three-act comedy. During its four years in high school the class of '35 was well repre- sented in sports and activities, and there were a number of members from the class who greatly contributed to the musical organizations of the school. Graduation is fast approaching and at that time the classmen, thirty-seven strong, will each be taking a separate road on the way to success. liach one hopes that perhaps someday, someplace, he will be able to see and be with his classmates again.

PAGE 9 THE RAIN The rain kept steadily falling Upon my window pane. For summer I kept longing, XYhile listening to the rain. The rain splashed on my window, And made me think of tears XYhieh because of sorrow, I may shed in future years. I pressed my face against the pane, And quite before I knew, My tears were mingling with the rain I longed for skies of blue. My only consolation was The thought of days to come. XX'hen l'd be gay and happy, XYhen God would send the sun. +C1r'xRBTTiT.1'TiA U JSI!!
