Linder, Pierce and Beezer were sort of satellites in that -wonderful production Then there were our senior feeds. Beezer and our faithful senior mother surely could serve the best of feeds. Tamale pie, Mrs. Talbert's kisses- But the little canoe at the landing proved such a diversion that Citrus affairs of the past were forgotten and Honolulu affairs of the present claimed all of their rt tention.

And we stand here undefeated For the hard and lengthy lessons now are o'er. We are through with preparation, VVe have reached our destination, And we need not fret about it anymore. -REVISED BY LEOTA SMITH. I SENIOR CLASS HISTORY-A RETROSPECT The summer of 1940 found George Dingle, a well known graduate of Citrus '22, at the old game-queening the latest social arrival, Miss Barbara Crow, of Cali- fornia. The summer moon was kind. It sheened and shadowed the tropical shore of Honolulu. A California girl was still supreme. True, Dingle had left a trail of girls from Azusa to this far distant land. So you're a Citrus man, too? What class, Mr. Dingle? asked Barbara. Why, don't you know the celebrated class of '22 ? was Dingle's quick response. Isn't it strange I've heard so little of that class ? teased the innocent Barbara. VVell-we have sent a fair number through college successfully. Some of us have traveled around over this old world and landed some pretty good jobs, even if you didn't hear much about us back there, rejoined the rich Hawaiian merchant, feeling rather proud of himself. But maybe you can remember some of our old luck, he continued. We were the class that had all that vacation our 'Freshie' year. Oh, yes, I remember, the 'Hu' year, added Barbara. Yes, worse luck! It cut all our social events that year in spite of the fact that we elected llflivie lkiiller as our president, and had as class teachers lVIr. Smith and lVIiss Ryle. - . Miss Ryle was the famous toe dancer, wasn't she ? inquired Barbara. , Yes, we had both her and Mir. Smith for class teachers our 'Sophie' year and 'Nlivie' was re-elected president. Where did you go for your class picnic ? We went to Fairmount Park and our class party was held at 'Milly' Ashby's, George explained. Barbara smiled at her companion's enthusiasm. Our Junior year, we kept thnigs going with Glenn White as president and llfliss Wood and lVIr. Herdeg as able assistants. We won the Junior-Senior Debate. Then we set a record with our formal banquet for the seniors at the Azusa club house. Then came your crowning year, anticipated Barbara, a delightful listener. Yes, I suppose you have seen our annual-not so bad? We had some worthy football stars, too-Dell, Linder, and the much-quarreled-over Jimmie. Mfrs. Tal- bert and lVIr. Herdeg watched over Glenn, our president, and he, in turn, guided our strenuous course that year. In the spring, the juniors QI believe your sister was in that class?D gave us a lovely banquet. I wonder if you remember that long ago ? This was intended as' a subtle compliment to his pretty young companion and as a reminder, too, perhaps, that he, lVIr. Dingle, was much more mature and experi- enced than she. Well, replied Barbara, knitting her brows in attempt to recall, I ran across an old program the day we sailed and that has refreshed my memory. The program was that of your Senior Play, Peg-o-lX'Iy-Heart, and all I can remember about it is that I was just recovering from chicken pox and had to stay home. Too bad you didn't see that play, lVIiss Barbara, because Yours Truly had quite a--er-well, that is to say, one of the leading parts. Lois, Clarinda and Eliz- abeth lVIiller were the stars, of course, but lldills, Mivy and I were moons, and Fifteen M l JI
