3ht DHemnriam O the students and faculty of Corona High School, the death of WALTER EDWIN HILL is indeed a sad loss. He was our friend, our companion. To his class- mates he has been, probably all unwittingly, an ideal: high-minded, fair, and true in all that he did. Too shy to find recitation easy, Edwin was of the type who never gave up until the lesson assinged had been mastered. His scholastic standing, distinctly above the average, showed diligent application to each task. For two years a member of the Executive Board of the Student Body, during one of which he served also as fire chief for the school, he has shared in the activities of the Spanish Club, the Hi-Y, and the DeMolay. Athletics found him a star player, a “four season man,” out for football, basketball, baseball, and track. Despite these varied interests, Edwin always had time to help the other fellow. As he has been in the past, so he will continue: ED- WIN HILL, our friend and companion, his high ideals our standard, his slow smile of comradeship and ap- proval reward complete for valiant endeavor.

In Memory of Walter Edwin Hill Evening starlight fell away; Dawn grew into the day. Heavenly angels swept from above Into a home of love, Lifting their voices in song of His praise, Only to blow out a light, For numbered are our days — Leaving us to sigh for a soul that is gone; Yes, just for a little while. Where is the happy boy? Where is his joyous smile? Gone — but just for a little while! Where is the one whom all could esteem? Gone, my friends, to the land of his dream. — Opal Ruth (This spontaneous tribute to the memory of a schoolmate loved by all is printed as it came from the pen and heart of its writer.) two

FOREWORD T)ROBABLY the most arresting figure produced by our generation is Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh, whose unassuming manner and matter-of-fact courage have become a by-word in homes the world around. He it is who has suggested to us the theme for our yearbook. “We’ has become a national synonym for self-forgetful co-operation. The Student Body of Corona High School is based upon mutual effort and organized for mutual profit. I HL CORONAL is the Student Body yearbook, chron- icling student endeavors and achievements throughout the year. As Student Body representatives, the editorial staff has endeavored to make this book present the stu- dent from the student’s own viewpoint. The selling price of such an annual is never sufficient to meet the cost of publication. The difference, in our case, is covered by funds received from the sale of adver- tising space. Believing that the same policy of recipro- city should apply in business relationships, the mana- gerial staff has solicited advertisements only from those merchants who would find in the student body a genuine buying public. Our book is now completed. The staff has exerted itself to the utmost. Student, faculty member, merchant- each has contributed his portion. Therefore, we, the Staff, present to the public this record of what WE, the Students of Corona High School, have achieved: THE CORONAL OF 1930 four
