GREEN AND GOLD Q NINETEEN-THIRTY freshmen with the customary reception and all-day suckers. Our boys this year held the majority of the places on the basketball and football teams, while the girls were the interclass champions. At Christmas time we did our share in filling Guam boxes and donating white gifts. The matter of all-absorbing interest now is the senior play, A Successful Calamityf' which will be given by twelve of our senior students. We are also planning the great social event of the year, the Senior Ball. Our hopes are that this year,s ball will surpass all other balls in the past years. Then, on June 6th, the day of days, the day when we graduate, will be here and we will have completed our high school career and prepared ourselves for further education. mimi L' 2 X T' E 0 s'oV f 6l'.-fa Bea N ..e 9.

GREEN AND GOLD g NINETEEN-THIRTY Senior Class History IN AUGUST OF 1926 the present seniors entered shyly and practically unknown into the activities of the Livermore High School. Now, in '30, they are leaving noisily and with a distinctive history behind them. In 'Z 6, as Freshmen, we started out with Donald Tretzel as our president and Mildred Kingsley as secretary. The seniors soon opened their hearts and welcomed us into the school activities with a fitting reception. Hav- ing been so warmly welcomed, we soon gave a return party well worth praise. We then felt as though we were a true part of the school affairs and activities. At Christmas time we remembered the needy with an abun- dance of white gifts and by filling a number of boxes for the children of Guam. During our freshman year we were well represented in the Honor Society, having six students on the membership role. Both the boys and girls established themselves in athletics by gaining places on all the teams. Our sophomore year found us more active than ever. In December we entertained at the traditional Christmas party, which was another feather in our social cap. The prizes for the California Essays were awarded, the first being a silver loving cup. White gifts were presented to Miss Jessen, and Santa Claus, looking a great deal like Donald Stone, arrived with a gift for each senior. Again we filled many Guam boxes for the needy. This year we made an excellent showing on the athletic teams, as some of our sophomore boys made the first two basketball teams and several were on the football team. We were steadily climbing the ladder of high school education, and August of '28 found us juniors,-and very progressive ones, too. One of our greatest achievements was the Junior Prom, which surpassed all our social expectations. The gymnasium was attractively decorated in red streamers and red hearts. Our class was a great asset to the operetta, as the juniors had many leading parts. Another great achievement was the Junior-Senior Banquet. We entertained the Seniors with a fitting banquet at Croce,s and then completed the evening with a dance at Foresters' hall. Our boys comprised a large part of both the basketball and football teams. Altogether, we were a progressive class and ready to enter upon the looked-forward-to-time, the time when we would be seniors. And now we are seniors! With Rae Hansen and Dorothy Cole as class officers, we started another active year. In September we welcomed the

Phyllis Rosenthal and Elmer Rowley were elected as the two members of the student body executive committee. This year the Junior Class established a monthly paper called, The L. U. H. S. Torch. The paper has proved very interesting and the Juniors hope that the class to follow will continue the publications of the paper. The Annual Junior Prom held on March twenty-first was another successful event for the Juniors. The hall was beautifully decorated in the Junior Class colors of pink and green. During a moonlight waltz, balloons were distributed among the dancers. A record crowd was present and everybody enjoyed the party. Another successful affair given by the Juniors was the Junior-Senior Banquet given at the close of school. P EN
