Mr- Q' u Seniors 0 With commencement exercises only a few days away, every Senior realizes that his high school days will soon be over. To the Seniors, the three years have gone all too quickly and the pleasant contacts in the classrooms and on the campus will fade into memory. Before we turn the page of the class of l936, let us turn back two years when the Seniors were but groping and struggling Sophomores. 0 Entering as Sophomores, the members quickly familiarized themselves with every phase of school activity and were eager and cooperative participants. Class officers for that year were James Peltier, President, Ah Nee Leong, Vice-President, Ah Sinn Leong, Secretary, and Minoru Okimoto, Treasurer. Mary Shinn was appointed to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Ah Nee Leong. 0 As Juniors, President Sing Chan Chun led the class through a successful year with the assistance of Margaret Chun, Vice-President, Ah Sinn Leong, Secretary, and Minoru Oki- moto, Treasurer. Class Day, held on March 27, l935, was one of the outstanding events of that year. The Quest of Character, an allegory based on McKinley High School's Code of Honor, was presented. Climaxing the activities of a successful year, a delightful Junior Prom was held at the Armory Hall on April l5. 0 With the advent of the Senior year, Duke Cho Choy, lnez Kong, Shizue Katashima, and Hichiro Miyamoto served as President, Vice- President, Secretary, and Treasurer respec- tively. ln the various fields of forensics, ath- letics, dramatics, art, and publications, mem- DU KE CHOY CHO President SH IZUE KATASHIMA Secretary Mrs Mary Harris, Adviser Senior Pinion Staff

INEZ KONG Vice-President HICHIRO MIYAMOTO Treasurer JFS Seniors bers of the class have contributed admirably to the success of the class this year. 0 One of the biggest projects of the year was conducted on November 24 when Senior por- ents were invited to attend the Senior Open House. Parents were ushered to the Core Studies, Pinion, Black and Gold, Model Store, and the Home Making Departments for a view of the versatile work done by the Seniors. Entertaining the parents in true Senior style, the Home Relations Committee, headed by Mrs. Lura Loader and Barbara Kano, provided the elders with music as well as other whole- some entertainment. 0 With Halloween costumes reigning, the Seniors enioyed an evening of dancing in their first social event of the year. Equally pleasant and enjoyable were the other two dances held in December and March. ln all the other dance frolics the Social Committee, under Miss June Johnson and Florence Mukai, func- tioned smoothly to give the Seniors a well- rounded social program. 0 Throughout the year other committees headed by capable teachers and students pre- sented assemblies on etiquette, music and literature. The Forum Committee, under Mr. Baldwin and Neil Kosasa, furnished the impe- tus for well-conducted forum discussions. 0 Acquiring poise and finesse from the Se- nior Forum discussions, the annual Senior Island Forum held on April l7 at McKinley offered no score to the Seniors when they boldly presented their views on Socialized Medicine, Neutrality, the Supreme Court, Labor, and Business and Government.
