Brainerd Asst. Business Manager PETALUMA, CAL-, JUNE, 1903 The Editors of the Enthrprise express their ap¬ preciation for the co-operation of the merchants and business men of Petaluma. They have furnished the means whereby we have published our paper. We so¬ licit the patronage of our readers for those who have advertised in our columns. The class of’03 wishes to thank the Faculty for the interest they have taken in us. Especially Miss Kurtz for the time she kindly devoted to us for the rehearsals of our plays. Our last year in High School has been marked by many changes for the better. The attendance has in¬ creased almost doubly, and to accommodate all the students, two more recitation rooms have been taken tor the High School use. A large assembly hall has been furnished for a study and equipped with electric lights and a stage for literary meetings. A neat little workshop has been built in the basement and fitted up with new and up-to-date machinery where the students may turn out their own apparatus for use in the Physics Laboratory. And not the least important improve¬ ment has been the addition of another teacher to our able Faculty. The Basket-ball team appreciated the visit of Mr. and Mrs. Minium at their game in San Francisco more than can be expressed in these columns. It was the best encouragement the team could have gotten. 3 Seniors Plea. “ Dear Father : Once you said, ‘My son, To manhood you have grown ; Make others trust you, trust yourself, And learn to stand alone !’ “Now father, soon I graduate, And those who long have shown How well they trust me, want their pay, And I can stand a loan.” —Trinity Tablet.

S. have been on the decline for several years, and there is absolutely no reason for it except the lack of interest taken. In the last S. M. A. A. L. field-day we secured but six points and these were won by the only two boys who trained consistently. With the material at present in our school we could have won the last field-day and won easily, too. As it was we had trouble in scraping up enough men to run the relay when we should have been forced to choose the six best men. The result of the field-day together with a little talk by one of our old-time athletes, Tom McGuire, seemed to stir up an interest in the sports, and at present we have seventeen boys training for a field-day with Santa Rosa High. Of course it is not to be expected that all these will make a showing at their first trial, but there is no reason why next year we should not have a crack team and give Ukiali or any other school a run for their money. Then, too, next year will be ' Peta¬ luma’s turn to hold the field-day, and if the boys only take hold of this we can fill up the sadly depleted P. H. S. treasury, besides giving the league a chance to run on one of the fastest tracks in the State. Those aspiring for track honors at the coming field- day are Martin Poelilmann, Floyd McAllister, Herbert Brainerd, John Lauritzen, Neal McLean, Lewis Crom¬ well, Earnest Jacobsen, Walter Foster, Ray Corliss, Hans Lauritzen, Ludwig Schluckebier, Jim Anderson, A 1 Anderson, Charles Chittenden, Arthur Evans and Joseph Tuttle. Martin Poelilmann was the manager of the ’03 team and Herbert Brainerd was track captain. I11 a meeting following the last field-day Martin Poelilmann was elected captain for next year ' s team. Now it’s up to us, fellows. Let’s bring P. H. S. to the front again. ’Rah for the Purple and White. H. K. B. Basket Ball. The P. H. S. Basket-ball team has gone through another year of victories and defeats and despite many disadvantages, the interest is still at its height.

The first game was played in town with the Grammar school team, and our girls won by a large score. The next day the P. H. S. team departed amid cheers and encouragement from the boys, for San Francisco to meet the team of the Girls’ High School. Our team was beaten by the small score of 8-2, and though we were defeated we spent a most enjoyable day. Two more match games took place this season, one with the Lowell High School team in San Francisco May 23d, and the other with the Girls’ High School team here on May 30th. Myrtle Healv has acted as captain this year and Hilda Atkinson, manager. We wish to thank the faculty and others for the interest they have shown, and especially the boys whose enthusiasm gave us much encouragement. T. B. s. ‘03. The Josher.

S. with a membership of twenty-two. Each year the number grew smaller until but ten remain to¬ night to represent the class of ’03. before con¬ sidering the graduates let us glance over those who for various reasons have left us. Mary Bryan (Hardin) is married and living in town. Horace Camm is attending school in Oakland. Perle Hanger is living in Sonoma. Florence Janies is attending the State Normal at Los Angeles. Ruby McGuire graduates next year. Josie Pilkington has been living with her parents at Trenton and will leave for Alaska next month. Herman Meyling is living at his father’s ranch near town. Olive Purvine graduates from Santa Clara High School this year. Chester Smith is working in San Francisco. Florence Thompson is residing in Seattle. Marino Tomasini is at work in San Francisco. Daisy Wallien is living at home with her parents. We have thus far spoken of those who have fallen by the wayside. Let 11s turn our attention to the faithful ones who have endured to the end : There’s our little mischievous Tessie B. Sweed. Tess is the life and merriment of the class. Always playing jokes on her classmates and seldom being caught. Her favorite study is Physics(?). The answers to the ques¬ tions in that study will be found recorded in “Sis Hop¬ kins.” Tess takes a great interest in Basket Ball and her devoted work has kept the team in existence when it would have fallen through for lack of spirit. I11 the classroom Tess has always ranked among the highest. She will attend the State University at Berkeley next year and judging her future record by her past she will surely succeed. Lewis H. Cromwell, a very diminutive member of the class of ’03 is a parliamentary wonder. During the Assembly in the P. H. S. he served very faithfully as Speaker of the House.

This year four girls and one boy re¬ ceive certificates. When we entered our class num¬ bered ten. Changes of residences and other reasons have reduced the class to its present number. To those who w r ere our former classmates, Edith Wilson, Ruth Winans, Charley McNally, Rudolph Peterson and Ernest Wilder, we wish the highest success in their .several undertakings, and regret their absence from our number this evening. Cut in half as it was, our class still retained five very happy members. In our school life we were noted more than less for mischief, for what one failed to think of the others did, and the poor lone boy’s vote was hardly if ever considered on any question. Really Ernest Jacobsen deserves special mention and credit for remaining with a class of four frolicsome girls for two years. Ernest has learned one good lesson that may be of advantage to him through life, he never argues a question, especially in the presence of girls. We name, in order of their mischevious inclinations, poor Ernest’s associates for two long (?) years. Sophie Thompson, the playful kitten of the class, a genuine giggling girl, bubbling over with fun and un¬ controllable merriment. Popping in at one door and out at the next, a veritable jumping-jack, but withal one of the brightest students in her class. In fact dur¬ ing the first half of the Senior year she accepted and filled with credit to herself and teacher, a position as stenographer in the Petaluma Savings Bank. Her employer spoke in the highest terms of her ability. So after all we are proud of our Kitten. Mabel Breckwoldt and Til lie Fredericks, the insepa¬ rable twins !
