Carl was a caretaker, a man who left a little bit of himself in every tree, and bush, and blade of grass around us. He left us, personally, but he will still be seen from time to time, tending the campus, carrying his keys. Carl, short and smiling, is still with us. 7 rci dchxol Ck ci teet-ayvi d fot-iad eve tww The roar of exhaust, warm with hot gas- es of flaming motor . . . the hum of tires along the smooth pavement . . . Pleasant sounds. Sounds we of the Coronal Staff want to capture for you between these covers, because they are a part of the happi- ness of Corona High, a part of teen age life. Thus we turn our theme, not to sweet and poignant memories, but to the lighter side — to the fun of high school. Let ' s start the motor . . . Mrs. Marion Griswold, the first lady of the school. me Here are two people who are vitally concerned with the welfare of the girls of Corona High. Here are two of the quietest mose effective workers. Here are two who hold authority but never flaunt it. Here are two who are con- stantly behind us, directing us. These two are Mrs. Marion Griswold and Mrs. Lois Tait. We see them as representing a high standard of moral character on our faculty. We dedicate the 1952 Coronal to them, and all they stand for. Mrs. Lois Tait, Girls ' gym teacher. rfnct t e 6u cf r ) tten ecti MA 4 ty yieen ccwfiefricf cuAitA ocfiA yl6ten m veAicle Oven all utn, ccuttfrut i IWe tnavel a fieace cd co tterttfrlatio t . . . . , , cutd (v ole4o Ke £u t Gordon Duncan, vice-principal and dean of boys Mrs. Marion Griswold.

There is a great deal more skill required to handle the steering wheel of a machine as complex as a High School. It takes a certain brand of people. Corona High has that brand of people. Here on these pages, we do them honor. The Administration: They are the people who make the Corona Schools roll. They are the Big Wheels . Pictured at the right. Corona High ' s Principal, C.

The plot concerned an American actress who married an English vicar and retired from the stage. Another American actor and an escaped Russian prisoner helped enliven the play, which ended in a riot of hilarious spiritual contortions.

The dance, sponsored by the Hi-Tri, was one of the most decorative of the year. It held special entertainment, and tunes from the Chaffey Dance Band.

While some decided to take the quickest way out, other less ambitious grads just flopped down on the patio lawn.

It ' s time to stop — and look back. That ' s our job. The Coronal Staff has enjoyed being your Rear- view mirror. It ' s now time for us to tell every- body what a fine job they did, and sort of pass out the orchids. Well, I don ' t need to say any- thing, really. Just take another look through this book. You ' ll see what I mean. We ' ve seen some hard workers this year. John Ragsdale, strange as it seems, never missed a deadline. Bev Hastings, who often sat up until midnight, some- times got her space bar confused with her margin release. Carol Lane, at the beginning of the year, had the prodigious job of sorting out and as- signing numbers to five hundred and fifty CHS students. Bob Shaw, who turned out to be the most industrious individual on the staff, and Harley Robertson, who ran the rounds with of- ficial photographer Rudy Ramos were often seen on Coronal Work. Yes, it ' s been a pleasant jour- ney, but it ' s time to re-fuel. We ' ve an even long- er trip ahead of us.
