CDUR TRUSTEES
We students of Victor High School think we're very lucky
to have the trustees we do. They have worked steadily for the
advancement of our school.
Mr. Walker jones serves as president of the Board. With
him are Mr. T. A. Lee and Mrs. lmogene Hook of Adelanto,
Mr. Bert Avery of Big Bear, Mr. james Holloway of Hesperia,
and Mr. Ray Moore, clerk of the Board, of Adelanto. Mr.
Moore handles all of the finances and bookkeeping of the
school and now has an office in the shop building.
Thanks to the foresightedness of these men and women
our campus has been greatly improved. lt gives us a thrill and
a feeling of pride to watch our school each year become more
beautiful and better equipped.
Mr. Walker jones has been in the newspaper game for years.
He owned and operated several papers in Northern California
and Oregon, and served in editorial positions on the Pasadena
Star and a San Francisco daily. For years he operated the
local weekly, and he now is special staff correspondent for the

Mr. T. A. Lee was a law student before the World War
called him overseas to see active service. Since coming to the
desert he has served as manager of the Adelanto Mutual Water
Company, a position of responsibility.

and is now serving her presidency in two organizations, the
San Bernardino County Tuberculosis Association and the
Ladies' Auxiliary of the American Legion.
Mr. Bert Avery of Big Bear owns and operates a fox farm,

pressive collection of cups his champion silver foxes have won.

during the time of the War, as an assistant in the Engineering
Department of the New York Central Railway, and .then came
