Sccretczry Treasurer WINTER CLASS OFFICERS CLASS HISTORY NTERING Excelsior in February, 1928, with 26 members ,all graduates of , Washington Grammar School, Bellflower, the Winter Class of 1932 was this school's initial mid-year group. Since they were pioneers in the winter class innovation, the class faced difficul- ties greater than usual. However they were fortunate in choosing two line advisers, Miss Elizabeth Hughes and Mrs. Madeline Thomas, who helped them during their first three and one half years. In scholarship, four of the members, Edwin Kelly, Arthur Brayfield, George Sakoda and Claude Haney, distinguished themselves as Honor students. Haney received a gold pin, the school's highest scholarship award. As for athletics. eleven of the boys won letters in some branch of sport, five in Varsity competition. Participating in the National Oratorical contest, three members, Arthur Bray- field, Burrell Harrell, and Claude Haney, were outstanding. Class members were also prominent in dramatic productions. In their last semester in school, two members of this small but progressive class, Claude Haney and Edwin Kelly, held important offices, those of Chief Iustice and Chief of Police, respectively. Misses Mulcahy and Watkins aided as class advisers during the winter class's final semester and were valuable in preparing plans for the first mid-year gradua- tion. Twenty-one
