Oakdale High School - Oracle Yearbook (Oakdale, CA)

last week succeeded Mr. Maxwell as the learned professor of Chemistry. This may seem strange as Dan's passion for Chemistry was not so noticeable in his school life. Manuel Cayton has also brought fame upon himself. He is now a teacher of music in Newman. From all reports, he is very successful, although he is not a favorite with the students. Why not? Well, he does so object to loud talking in the halls and classrooms. This was also his mania in high school, you remember?,' Interrupting Leo's words, I quickly asked, 'iWhere is William Laughlin? I have not heard from him for some time. Leo smiled, and then answered my question. Well, just one week ago Bill was married, and he and his newly acquired wife are taking an extended trip to Europe. As the bell rang for the noon hour, I left the new principal of the O. U. H. S. and slowly walked back to 1ny hotel. Thence, I made my way to the landing field ,in preparation for leaving Oakdale. I started my plane and quickly soared into the air, happier than I had been for some time, for had I not seen many of the class of '28 again-the best class that ever lived?

When my friends had left the hotel, I immediately went to bed as I was very tired from the excitement of coming back to my old home town and seeing so many people I knew. I promised myself an interesting day on the morrow, and went to sleep, dreaming that I again was a student in the Oakdale Union High School. The next day, after rising at a late hour and eating a sumptuous breakfast, I took one of the Santa Cruz busses, in order to visit the high school. As I walked up the beaten paths of my Alma Mater, my heart beat violently, for any moment I half expected to meet some of my schoolmates-many of whom I had not seen for ten years. I opened the door hastily and walked into the hall. I looked down the hall and then stopped in amazement. Where had I seen the face of that man who was walking so leisurely into the Spanish room? Then I remembered. It was Clyde Johnson, who was performing the duties formerly belonging to Doug Morean. I conversed with him for a while, and he explained to me the cause of his taking up such an occupation. It seems that after leaving high school, Clyde had intended to fit himself for the work of an editor, but his love for the Alma Mater was so strong he was forced to come back to Oakdale. My surprise knew no bounds when Clyde informed me that Leo Hallinan had been principal of the O. U. H. S. for two years. Leo a principal! It seemed impossible! In order to believe what I had heard, I madly dashed to the oflice. There in a swivel chair sat Leo, in much the same position as I had often seen him in the office ten years before. Leo, I cried, regardless of the echo which carried my voice from room to room. He greeted me joyously and then began to speak fluently of the merits of the high school. Yes, replied Leo in answer to my questions, 'tall during my term in school I had envied Mr. Gossett his position fas of course you must remember because of my fondness for the officej, and now- but no need for further words as Leo indicated the large expanse of the office which he so loved. A look of sadness came to his eyes as he told me that soon he must retire from the position as his doctor had ref cently informed him that he was on the verge of a collapse from overwork. This sounded so like the hard-working Leo. He soon brightened and said, Of course you know that Mabel Gilbertson is my oflice girl now. She is very efficient. Theresa Panetto and Kathryn Hoffman are new teachers here. Have you heard about Albert Williams? He has taken the place occupied by Mrs. Dittemore as the instructor in Senior English. In last week's newspaper, the one edited by George Corrigan, Albert wrote an article upon the use of good books. As an example he gives The Century Handbook. Albert declares he is never without a copy. Dan Gilbert only aazlw
