The Tatsch brothers were represented in the art and drama depart- ments. Frank has some excellent oil paintings to his credit. Herb has taken part in several school plays. With their faithful adviser, Mrs. Walker, the class, with their ready talent, should have a bright future. Junior A ' s This year the All students have been in rlmost every activity and have shown a loyal spirit to their school. On the winning football team were Linton Mobrrry, manager, Bruce Doherty, Hueston Harper, and John Avedesian. The captain of the class A basketball team, Edward Rueweler, was of the All class. In track ev- ents, Bruce Doherty, Hueston( Harper, Richard Worthen, and Ed Rueweler were outstanding. In the Poor Nut, Ahce Sampson wrs a sub-lead.

Junior B ' s The Bll class was the largest mid-winter class Gardena has ever had. Because of this, many new classes were opened the last semester. The class was well represented in various clubs. Harold Black and Dorothy Mae Collins belonged to the debating society and made a very splendid record. In the music department, Gwendolyn Moreland was Glee Club director and Dorothy Mae Collins was concert mistress. Helen Ahlberg, Betty Mowatt, and Anna May George were members of the book-a-month club of Los Angeles.

Sophomore A ' s aP AND DOING is our motto, and we follow it, too! There were three divisions of AlO ' s. Miss McKenna ' s boys had many educa- tional programs during the. home-room period. Their presidents were George Hutton and Robert Morrow. Miss Hinsdale ' s group of girls had a regular schedule for each day of the week. The president of this group for the first term was Martha Flew- elling, and the second semester, Ruth Atkinson. The other class of AlO girls, with Miss Hagen for their adviser, Hu- genia Snyder, the president in September, and May Yamauchi the president elected in February, has been making use of their time by designing costumes for 0-Cho-San. Although we have had but one party, which was last Hallowe ' en, we expect to have many more. And we mean to be a livevly bunch of seniors in 1931. Sophomore B ' s The BlO ' s are very proud of their class room standards. They have all worked together diligently in everything they have done. They pai-- ticularly starred in Clean up week , when they came in second. At junior high stunt parties, the class received first prize once for the best stunt, and at another time, honorable mention. Many of this class were in the various school activities. They were well represnted in the Glee Club, Orchestra, and Band. A number of the girls earned fifty athletic points when in A9, and were initiated into the G. A. A. as soon as they came into the high school. Mr. Mc Lendon, and Mrs. Tyler were the home-room teachers for this class. Vocational Class The vocational class, or Smith-Hughes class as it is sometimes called, is a strictly trade class in ruto repair. All boys in this class were chosen after a tryout of 10 to 20 weeks. The adviser of this class was Mr. Glass, the head of the Mechanical Arts Department. Mr. Moore taught related drawing, and Mr. Mc Lendon related mathematics and science. The after- noon was given over to shop work of the most practical sort under the direction of Mr. Loomis. An important feature of the work of this class was the cooperative arrangement between the school and the industry. Two boys worked week about, while one was in school, one was at work. Up to the present time, we have placed two boys at the Dodge shop, two at the Studebaker, and two at the Ford. Ptige Tzieiity-eig it
