Class History ROM Palm Springs, from Cathedral City, from Cabazon, from the Banning grade school trooped an eager group of seventy green and gawky freshmen. They entered the sacred portals of Banning Union High School, leaving behind them their dolls and toys and assuming the responsibility of enlightening the world in arts, sciences, and athletics. They elected as their president, Helen Dowling, who guided them through the arid sands of their first year in high school. A class picnic was held at Hall’s Grade, and Miss Camp and Mr. Fisk have never been the same since their experiences as advisors to this lively gang of students (?). The Desert Rats were quick to learn; and at the end of the first year all of them had made their grades and returned on September 12 as Sophomores. There were seventy shiny faces on seventy little boys and girls who rose in their seats to lustily sing “Good Morning, Dear Teachers” to Miss Thayer and Mr. Cromwell. A milk of magnesia picnic was held in the canyon of that name; all were greatly benefited — | I ? S ? On September 11, 1933, the family had decreased to sixty-three Juniors, who had grown mentally as well as physically. A small cannon was imported with which to call the class meeting to order, and the year proceeded merrily, though noisily, under the directions of the presidents, Helen Diemer and Warren Pinney. A ducking party at the Banning Plunge and a delightful Pirate Dinner-Dance honoring the Senior Class, the faculty, and the school board, were the social events of the year. Advisors were Mr. and Mrs. Cromwell and Miss Harvison A depleted class of forty-four dignified Seniors swept thrcugh the halls on September 10, 1934, snubbing the green and gawky freshmen and tolerating the 1g other underclassmen. The class elected Harvey Janssen and Warren Pinney as presidents; these noble souls guided the wandering: Nomads through a barren desert of learning into the Oases of a picnic, moonlight and such, a senior play, and the first annual since the one of 1928 J. T. Sanders.
