IGH THE SCHUOL GF DISTINCTIO The School of Distinction . . . Coral Gables Senior High School has truly earned this title. Through the years Cables has expanded and progressed, and today it is undisputedly a School of Distinction in all fields. The School of Distinction had its begin- ning in 1926 as Ponce de Leon High School. Mr. Harry N. Rath became principal in 1932 and he began at once to shape the school for the greatness and distinction it was eventually to attain. The student body has always been known as the Coral Gables Cavaliers and our yearbook has been known as the Cavaleon -CAVA from Cavaliers and LEON from Ponce de Leon. As the population of the city increased so did that of the school, and in 1950 the school was moved to a new location at Bird and Lejeune roads. Today Gables, beautiful buildings. sit- uated on 26 acres, make up a thriving community of 2300 students and instruc- tors. School work and school life are tops. The superb teaching is shown in the un- surpassable quality of work that Cables students produce. This year Cables had 19 Merit Scholarship Finalists, a number unequaled by any other school in Florida. Once again our football team is Big Ten and State Champions. Our newspaper has been rated second in the State and our 1958 Cavaleon won a first place rating in the nation. We have the honor of being recognized as one of the 29 top schools in the nation by two national magazines. Cables is truly a School of Distinction . . . distinct and outstanding in its caliber of students. in its athletic and scholastic attainments. in its fine, well-qualified teach- ers. and in its superior show of school spirit and good sportsmanship.
