Page 18 The Petrolia June 1937 Senior Class Plays Hookie, Enjoys Picnic On the morning of May 6, at 6:30 o ' clock, while unsuspecting juniors and sophomores were still snuggled in their beds, approxi- mately 70 boisterous seniors met at the high school, decorated the classroom blackboards, and de- parted in a caravan of 15 cars for Mooney ' s Grove. Visalia, where they spent the annual Sen- ior Day (better known as ditch day ). Two-thirty brought the boating, playing, and picnicking to a lapse, and 70 dirty-faced seniors started homeward, where, aLer a noisy entrance to town, they began the celebration anew wth a refresh- ing splash in th - • chool plunge, followed by a v.ohht roast at the Community Picnic Grounds. When the sun had gone down, and afternoon fun had led into evening fun. the persistent se- niors i Mir liub ' d ihr,:: daj with i dance at the school; but by 9:30 they began to fag like wilted lil- ies and decided to terminate their thii teen-hour day of frolic. Mr. and Mrs. T. A. Ellestad and Miss Laura Lauritzen accompan- ied the merry group throughout the ilay. Senior attendance for the event was almost complete, but alas, Tartan Koonce, who had long looked forward to the big day, had such pleasant dreams of an ticipation the night before that he overslept, and awakened at noon with a start, real i vug that his dreaming would be he nea est he d come to his Senior Da;, eel- brdtion. Coalinga Alumni Return Home For Celebration May Day of 1937 was marked as one of the most festive and most enjoyable week-ends in the history of Coalinga, as the silver anniversary of the Coalinga Alumni Association was celebrat- ed in a home-coming reunion. The Reunion Banquet was held Saturday at 6:30 in the Masonic Temple. Approximately four hun- dred reservations were made for the dinner, half of them being made by former Coalingans who now reside elsewhere. The invitational dance, held at the Dreamland Hall after the ban- quet, proved to be one of the most successful Alumni dances, the gathering being both gay and touching as many old s c h o o 1 chums met for the first time since their graduation. Besides the dinner and dance Saturday ' s program included ten- nis on the new high school tennis courts, swimming in the new plunge, golf, and badminton. Scheduled for Sunday were many types of entertainment, in- cluding a community picnic spon- sored by the Chamber of Com- merce, a band concert by the high school band, and a fun-fest base- ball game between the oil super- intendents and merchants of Coal- inga. Since 1912 eight hundred sixty- four students have been graduat- ed from Coalinga High and the May Day affair was the first Alumni Reunion in the associa- tion ' s history. Senior Groups Stage Annual Steak Bakes GIRLS GO UP WARTHAN Senior girls cast their cares to the winds April 21. when they motored to the Standard Picnic Grounds to observe the annual Senior Girls ' Steak Bake. Activities of the afternoon con- sisted of swinging, skating, and playing baseball — sports in which everybody took a part. There were a few individuals, however, who unintentionally provided a great deal of amusement for the girls. Viola Zahn ' s prowess as a baseball catcher, Martha Schutte ' s and Calverna Linse ' s skill at skin- ning the cat, and Laura Laurit- zen ' s ability to swing a bat and hitch-hike home placed them all in line for positions in most any carnival or on the AU-American Alcalde Baseball League, when and if organized. BOYS ENJOY STEAKS Senior boys upheld tradition June 1, when they held their an- nual Senior Boys ' steak bake at the Polvadero Country Club. The boys met at the high school after school had been dis- missed and rode to the club In a school bus. There they found fire and food ready for them, a committee of boys having pre- pared them earlier in the after- noon. The facilities of the club were graciously made available for the fellows, who played golf and base- ball and went swimming in the club pool. This latter activity seemed to consume most of the boys ' time and was a source of much enjoyment. When the time came to eat. everyone was well able to enjoy the thick, juicy steaks and the potluck dinner.
