DANCES OF THE YEAR The Freshman Reception, which was the first dance of the year, was all that a good dance should be, as were the other dances that fol¬ lowed intermittently throughout the year. The embryo high school students turned out in good numbers to be received by the members of the upper classes and get acquainted with each other. The Senior dance on March 2 was the next important event on the social calendar, and took on the nature of a sort or family affaii among the Seniors, who certainly made a lively party of it. The Sophomores made an occasion of their advent out of the Fresh¬ man period into membership in the “three upper classes at the Sopho¬ more dance April 6, which was one of the best of tbe year and en¬ joyed an unusually good attendance. What mi gilt be called the crowning event of the school social season was the Press Club ball on tbe evening of Friday, April 20. That much time and great preparation was given by the Press Club members to make the ball the success it was, was plainly evidenced by the unusual and beautiful decorations and many lit.le touches so essen¬ tial to a good dance. On June 1st was the Junior Prom, to which only the Seniors were invited. Good music and dainty decorations helped everyone get into the gay spirit of the party which prevailed throughout the evening. SENIOR-ALUMNI REUNION Saturday, April 28, the Senior Class of 23 gave a banquet and ball in honor of the Alumni. Over one hundred of the Alumni gath¬ ered to greet each other once more. Jimmy McMenamin, one of the most prominent Alumni, acted 1 toastmaster. The speakers of the evening were: James McMenamin, T6; Oneta Snodgrass, ’23, Senior President; Mr. Martin, Principal; Dr. Cuthbert Malm, T6, Alumni President for year of ’22-’23; Lawrence Dayton, 18; Lewis Thomas, 22; W m. Rick¬ ard, Clerk of the Board of Trustees; Miss Gregory, Teacher; Fred Fellows, Senior President, 22; Sylvia Sheffer, representing Analy Club at San Jose Teachers ' College; Mr. Schnabel, Agriculture Teacher; Dr. Hart, University of California.

t; Dr k- td ly re to ns rs, as id STUDENT BODY Under the Presidency of Hubert McCormick, and the guidance of the Governing Board and Finance Committee, the heavy debt of last year was paid up. The most notable action was the adoption of the Service Point System of awarding merit points. Many movies were brought to the school through the Student Body. Also, there have been talks by noted speakers and a typing- demonstration by the world ' s champion typist. Dances, programs and entertainments of all kinds have also been given. 1 he officers for the first term were, Hubert McCormick, Pres.; Alma Shelley, Secretary; William Roberts, Treasurer; Lois Osborn, Historian; Louis Silveira, Athletic Delegate: Burt Burlingame, Yell Leader; and Miss Gregory, Faculty Representative. The second term, Hubert and Alma were re-elected, Herbert Jensen took William Roberts ' place, Joe Osborn, Lois Osborn’s, Wilburn Talbot, Louis Silveira’s, and Mr. Van Amringe, Miss Gregory ' s FRESHMEN INITIATION The day that the upper classmen enjoy most in the school year is Freshmen Initiation Day. This year a large class of Freshmen went through the ordeal. The upper classmen made the “Freshies perform many funny stunts and get into embarrassing situations for the en¬ joyment of the other classes. But the “Freshies should be admired for the good spirit in which they went through the stunts imposed upon them. Although they were sometimes badly humiliated they always smiled. The Freshmen feel better acquainted after this great day and look forward to the next year when they can help initiate the next “Freshies.” GIRLS ' JINX The Junior and Senior girls entertained the Freshmen and Sopho¬ more girls at a costume jinx early in the school year. A program was given in the early afternoon and a dance followed the program. A dinner was served at 6:30 and the rest of the evening was spent in dancing. Everyone had a royal good time and voted the upper class- men fine entertainers. A return jinx was given by the Freshmen and Sophomore girls in February. They showed the upper classmen that they also knew how to give everyone a good time. The afterroon and evening were spent in much the same way as the former jinx. This jinx, instead of being a costume affair, was a kid party. Everyone enjoyed playing kid parts and appreciated the efforts the girls had put forth to make the jinx the great success that it was.
