l 'i Beale PRINCIPAUS MESSAGE HIS year brings to fruition several of o-ur long-anticipated hopes. First, and chief among them, is the class of June, 1928-first graduating class of the Bell High School. May we not congratu- late them and assure them that their friendly spirit of loyalty and help- fulness, both in class and out, has been a source of satisfaction to every- one with Wh-om they have come in contact. Three years ago we had a hazy idea that these allied communities needed a high school. Since that day the idlea has developed into a reality. We have one of the fastest growing high schools in Los Angeles, with an attendance rapidly approaching a thousand. This rapid growth has brought with it changes in the physical school plant. The outstanding improvements of the past year are the building and equipping of the shops and the equipping of the science laboratories. At present, the auditorium is being remodeled and thoroughly modern- ized. Next year additional classroom space will be necessary to take care of our increasing enrollment. The adult evening school is a new project this year and has been exceptionally well received. This summer a combined Junior and Senior High School will be opened for the six weeks summer term. In conclusion., may we say that this continued growth of the Bell High School would never have been possible had it not been for the un- selfish co-operation of the student body, the faculty, the 'educational exe- cutives and the citizens. This relationship will flourish always if we maintain a common interest in. the broader aspects of community edu- cation and civic betterment. -CLAUDE L. REEVES. i VICE-PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE O the Student Body of Bell High School: To you, Student Body, I wish to express my gratitude for your co-operation, encouragement, and support of student activities. In its accomplishment in all lines of endeavor, scholarship and athletics, alike, our school is rapidly advancing. In ,December Bell was placed on the accredited list of high schools by the University of California and later became a member of the Cali- fornia Scholarship Federation. Student-body support has aided your teams in Winning eight out of eleven games in football, placing second in two divisions of basketball, and climbing to first place in both class A and C in track in the Marine League. Eleven clubs afford an opportunity to those students interested in extra curricular activities. In this, your first annual, you find recorded the events of the year and accomplish merits of classes, clubs or individuals. These events are recorded in such a way as to heighten the school spirit and make our hearts beat a. little faster. In years to come this book will have fulflled its purpose when it brings back to you the record of your youth -and awakens memories of some friend or long forgotten experience. i But whether or not your deeds are recorded within these paves I-9- mcmber that Honor lies in honest toil, and that our daily abchieve- ments and endeavors are recorded in our own characters and make us worth while citizens.
