freshmen were Lester Hampton, Letha Raney, and Pearl Webtser (Betty’s aunt) . But the seniors had to have their hats made to order, too. Susie Ott (Magdeline Clark’s mother) was one of those seniors. But, you know, that “new Corona High School’’ might have had something to do with that tight-hat problem. It is that structure on south Main street between the Boulevard and Olive Sreet. The high school play, Esmeralda, was given at the Corona Opera House, Satur- day, March 30, 1907, before a large and appreciative audience. ' ' ' La Corona was discontinued in 1909, ' and the next juornal was more like an annual. It was published once in 1913. And thus the Corona High school progressed in numbers and in size, for in 1923 our present edifice was built, and in 1928 we outgrew our classrooms and had to move the Mechanical Drawing classes into the dug-out on the north-west corner of the campus — Wings to the main building next, please! And thus we owe her, our high school, our deepest appreciation for all that is good in her, and all the good in us that we have found through her. Leah Hoover, ' 29 As the gray of advancing time Throws its shadow on up all We ' ll still uphold her standards And never let them fall. She ' ’s given us our training In all of life’s own ways. And we’re giving her a “thank you” That only in part repays. Dorothy Twogood ’30 Eight
