We are starting out upon our own To enter a world we have not known. The future has now come more in view, And that is the thing we must look forward to. Quincy High School, however, doesn't end right there, For part of our memories it will always share. In the years to come our minds, undoubtedly, will wander back To the school and opportunities it did not lack, And how it gave us valuable facts about the important steps in life That would help us to guard against coming hardships and strife. To our teachers and classmates we say adieu, And hope they'll all come successfully through. To Johnny, our janitor, always cheerful and gay, We say Au Revoir and hope to meet again some day. We thank Mr. Hyames and the Board with all our heart For in every way, they always did their part. They will long be remembered for their tireless work, And in their efforts to help us, never did they shirk. With this we all say farewell, To the school we loved so well, And for each individual I must confess This class will climb upward on the ladder to success. —MARCELLE TOOHIG.

M. at 2 o'clock on the new passenger rocket ship piloted by our friend, the bass horn tooting Thomas, who tootles the ship into Quincy at 2:30 P. M. Dear Diary, June 21, 1956 Went to the Quincy Rose Bowl football game between the Quincy Up and At 'Em team and the Sandford Indians. The team was being cheered hilariously by the athletic cheer leader, Pete Mclnturff, while Ralph Rogers, the all-Quincy quarterback, carried the pigskin to a 68 to 0 victory. Just returned from the new musical dancing comedy hit Throw About featuring the graceful adagio dancing team of Ginger Beard and Dean Atkinson, the latter unfortunately spraining his ankle during their famed Spring Dance Sequence. Dear Diary, June 22, 1956 Had a pleasant surprise this morning. Arose at 6 A. M. for a brisk before breakfast stroll. Upon crossing a meadow out of the city I was startled by the appearance of a capering gazelle-like figure dancing across the meadow with a wisp of a net. Upon approaching I was surprised to find this early morning butterfly chaser the studious scholar of our school days—Dan Baldwin. Dear Diary, June 23, 1956 I spent a very eventful day. Upon passing a busy intersection I saw a familiar face. It was Mary Hall who had become a great orator. She advocated for bigger, better, longer, and more leap years. I was also surprised to find in the lobby, Fay Mclnturff illustrating the ultra-modern method of chewing the latest Wigley creation, Shadow Reducing Gum. cu r ppcpuccy_________________________ Dear Diary, June 24, 1956 I feel very fired this evening, as I was awakened at 4 A. M. by the bedlam of shrieking sirens of the riot squad. Jumping into my rocket knockabout, we arrived in the beautiful suburb of Quincy that I remembered as Keddie. Before a palatial residence I was amazed to find Wren Seeber emerging from the doorway amidst a deluge of pottery which were wafted by his irate but comely titian-haired wife. Dear Diary, June 25, 1956 Another local boy makes good! Read in the daily monarch, the Feather River Bulletin, of the success of Elwood Ford, who has discovered the long sought formula for the prevention of fallen arches. Also read an item about the heartrending plight of Winnifred Schooler who due to laryngitis will be unable to attend the weekly meeting of the soft-spoken voice culture class. Dear Diary, June 26, 1956 Enjoyed a wonderful repast at the Eat-more Grill on Park Avenue, enthusiastically owned by our own lissome svelte figured Lauretta Harding. Wound up my meandering in the old home town by visiting the Quincy School of Chiropody . I was delighted to renew the acquaintance of Marcelle Toohig, who lectures and demonstrates the art of keeping the feet beautiful. Dear Diary, June 27, 1956 Am back in New York. While returning home on the rocket I was very glad to find Louis Thomas, the only member of the class of 36 I missed in Quincy. Louis was laboriously drawing his daily cartoon adventures of Moon Eyed Annie. 93 6 n e rcNicc ci ux miTccy ... ENTERING Quincy High School in August 1932, twenty-two freshmen pupils held their heads high. They intended to do their best and make a good mark in the history of the Quincy High. Our first year was under the guidance of Miss Gibson and our class officers were: President, Ralph Kerr; vice-president, Winnifred Schooler; secretary and treasurer, Wanda Gould. During our second year, which was more successful than the first, our officers were: Winnifred Schooler, president; Virginia Beard, vice-president; Mary Hall, secretary-treasurer. Our sponsor was Mr. Smith. Representing us in athletics, William Mclnturff, Dan Baldwin, and Dean Atkinson were on the B team. During our junior year we took up duties of upper-classmen. William Mclnturff was elected vice-president of the student body. Several members of our class were on the staffs of the Pine Breezes and the Pine. Our class was represented also in the school play, You're Telling Me, by Mary Hall, Theda Ball, and Winnifred Schooler. We have lost many of our students but have also gained many. This year our ranks were joined by Marcelle Toohig, Edna Eiszele, and Wrenn Seeber. We were represented in athletics by William Mclnturff, Dan Baldwin, and Dean Atkinson on the A basketball team. We gave the usual Junior-Senior Prom, which was a fine success, besides giving two other class parties. Miss Gibson was our class advisor for a second time. Our officers were: president, Theda Ball; vice-president, William Mclnturff; secretary and treasurer, Mary Hall. In this our last year we have attained the position to which all students look forward. William Mclnturff has been student-body president and Winnifred Schooler, secretary. We have given one senior party, which is our farewell to the students. We have again been represented on the A team by William Mclnturff, Dan Baldwin and Dean Atkinson. Silver basketballs were awarded to Dan Baldwin and William Mclnturff for two successive years on the A team. Due to unfortunate circumstances we could not give a Senior play, but we edited a very successful Christmas edition of the Pine Breezes. We have three new students this year, which raised our class to fourteen students. They are Elwood Ford, Ralph Rogers, and Louis Thomas. Now that we have reached commencement days we hope to profit in the outside world by our knowledge gained in Q. H. S. with the heb of our teachers.

JUNIOR CLAJJ UI TORy AUGUST 28, 1933, twenty-five freshmen stormed the portols of Quincy High School in search of education. During the year four of our number left us. In the fall of '34 our ranks were joined by Marjorie Mears, Aimanor Hodges, Donna Walters, Bill Berg, Edna Flodin, and Leon Olsen. Bill Berg, Donna Walters, and Leon Olsen soon left us. Now we as Juniors and upper-classmcn have entered the gates of this school for one more year. Leslie Sumner, Melvin Glliam, Henry Walp, Bert Poindexter, Wayne Batchelor, Mark Porter, and Evelyn Lawson have become new members of our class, although Vivian Bennett, Edward Carpenter, Glen Thomsen, Edna Flodin, and Henry Walp have transferred to other schools. Eugene McElroy is captain of the A basketball team, with Jack Hill, Kermit Myers, and Chester Egbert playing on this team also. Kermii Myers has played on the A' team two years ond received a silver basketball. Dean Smith and Carlton Droege are on the ” B team, as were Edward Carpenter and Glen Thomsen before they were transferred. Dean Smith, Evelyn Pauly, Carlton Droege, and Marjorie Mears starred in our class play, Believe It Or Not. They were supported by a large cast. We will now become elevated to the position of Seniors. Wish us well! We hope to profit by our mistakes and do more and better things n our next year.

JCPUCMCCC HIJTCRy IN 1934 many timid Freshmen came slowly and reluctantly to enroll. This September we came again, but walked as Sophomores, with confidence and boldness. We were enriched by many new members: Jack Archibald from Inglewood, California; Everett Batchelor from Berkeley, California; Stanley Cochran from Belden, Californio; Wilda Ford from Oroville, California; Elizabeth Miller from Virgilio, California; Louise Williams from Paxton, California. With the help of our new members we successfully gave a Sophomore class party, put out two editions of the Pine Breezes, and helped in many ways. Next year as Juniors we hope to have many more achievements to our credit. President.......................Stanley Cochran Vice-President...................Jeanne Hogan Secretary and Treasurer . . .

Thirty-six jolly Freshmen entered the Quincy High School in August, with students coming from Sloat, Keddie, Spring Garden, Belden, Meadow Valley, Grays Flat, and Virgilia. Soon after, the class added Wesley Cochran, Allen Fraser, Fred Woodmansee, Virginia Wilkins, John Haffenger, Eugene Rowell, Rachel Gibbons, William Hammelrath, John Jones, Arthur Clark, Arthur Petrus-ki, Charlie Mathews, Gilbert Travis and Robert Travis to its list. Erma Thomason is the only student who has left during the year. Soon after we were initiated we gave the school a return party, which was very successful, as we are just beginners. During the year we published two editions of the Pine Breezes. The staff consisted of Meriam Allingham, Helen Bedell, Jack Crane, Jim Finnegan, Marjorie Gilliam, Norma Leone, Jeanne Nelson, Ola Mae Powers, and John Walp. Several of our freshman students were admitted to the regular band. These were Meriam Allingham, Helen Bedell, Raymond Fagan, Jeanne Nelson, Ola Mae Powers, and John Walp. This class was represented on the C Team by Jack Crane, Edward Erickson, George Elwood, Jim Finnegan, James Lucier, and Roy Winsell. They played in games against Portola, Greenville, and Loyalton.

IN addition to the first and second teams this year, we also had a third team, the C team. The line-up of the C team: Elwood Hunt, captain. James Finnegan. Jack Crane. Edward Erickson. James Lucier. Elwyn Thayer. All players received letters this year, and William Mclnturff, Dan Baldwin, and Kermit Myers also received silver basketballs for their outstanding playing on the A team during the last two years. Although Quincy displayed some excellent fighting spirit, they were unsuccessful in winning most of the games, their only victory being a 26-25 score against Portola at Quincy. Since the name of the school was changed from the Plumas County High School to the Quincy High School, the team letters were also changed from P to Q. The C team award is a four-inch white felt block number, indicating the year of the recipient's graduation, on a field of red felt with a five-inch hexagon ring. In the interclass games the seniors were victorious, having won over the juniors by the narrow margin of 14-13. A TEAM E TEAM UC° TEAM '93 6 CCTI’ ATHLETIC Quincy's track team competed in three meets this year, first a dual meet with Greenville, second the C. I. F. meet and third the county meet.

FOR the fifth year the Quincy High School Band was ogoin under the baton of C. R. Schott. The total enrollment consisted of fifty-two pieces. May new instruments were added ot the beginning of the year. A few of these were a piccolo, bassoon, two French horns, and tympani. With the aid of the Student Body, Quincy Chamber of Commerce, the P.-T. A., and other organizations, the band secured new uniforms. They arrived just in time to be worn at the concert for the first time. The Orchestra . . . THE dance orchestra, also under the guidance of Mr. Schott, was started when school began. By the end of the year this organization, composed of ten members, could play for a whole evening and render very enjoyable music. The Chorus . . . DIRECTED by Mr. Schott, the chorus of fifteen voices was very successful this year. As most of the students had not studied vocal music before, the group was unable to do very much. However, if it receives the cooperation in the future that it has in the past, it is thought that an organization will be produced of which any school should be proud. A MUSICIANS DIAPy . . . Sept. 20 The orchestra played for the first time, with the assistance of Bill Hayes, at the Freshman Reception. Sept. 27 The band rendered a few selections for the Cabrillo Day program. Nov. 15 Again the band was heard as we played four Bandanna Sketches on the Educational Program tonight. Dec. 6 The orchestra was able to play six tunes tonight for the Freshman return party. Feb. 6 We students in the band certainly had a wonderful evening tonight. We went to Greenville, and the two bands rehearsed together. Feb. 14 The orchestra again played its six tunes, plus a few more, this evening for the Sophomore Party. � r : 1 i i i Lelt to right—from top row—CHARLES LUND. FRANKLIN BEARD. JEANNE NELSON.

The Chorus made its first and only appearance on this program also. THE CAMCCA CLUE_ IN November Mr. Gates organized a camera club; those eligible to join being the members of the junior and senior classes. Carlton Droege was elected president; Jewel Frierdich, secretary; Virginia Beard, treasurer. We decided upon ten cents a month dues, with which we purchased printing and enlarging paper. The dark room was made for students, in which they did their work. The Board purchased a printing box, an enlarging machine, and the chemicals for developing the pictures. The students have been interested in photography and some very good work has been produced. Many of the snapshots in our Pine have been made by the students in the club. 9 3 6 THE USUI OUy BELIEVE IT OR NOT, a comedy in three acts, which proved to be quite a success, was presented by the Junior Class on February 21, under the direction of Miss Torre. The story begins with Harriet Follis confronted with a perplexing situation. Her wealthy uncle insists that she marry before she is twenty-two in order to inherit his money; and she is approaching the dead-line without suitors. Harriet inserts a matrimonial ad in the newspaper. Nancy, Harriet's girl friend, decides to relieve the awkward situation by posing as Harriet's fiance during the visit of the eccentric uncle. Complications begin when two strange men arrive, both bent on putting the matrimonial venture through. One man stays in the house disguised as a maid. An inspectress from the Health Department insists upon finding a Bubonic Plague victim. A detective from Headquarters is bent upon unearthing a murder in the Follis home. The tangled threads are finally straightened out, and things end happily for all except the two officials, who are robbed of their professional prey. The Cast . . .

Olaf at ten years of age was shrewder than some boys twice his oge. Mr. Swanson saw that his son had three meals a day and a bed to sleep in, but that was oil. At this time he was working with a gang, draining the flats. They were doing this to moke a landing field for airplanes. Every day at noon Olaf brought down his father’s dinner. Airplanes and everything connected with them thrilled the boy. He hod only seen them from a distance, but some day he hoped to see one close by, ride in one, and perhaps even fly one. So he mode miniature planes out of wood, and studied them in magazines. He knew the great tin shed was called a hangar, and every night he besieged his father v ith questions. When were the planes coming, and what mode them stay in the air? One noon when he appeared with the lunch, he found that an airplane had arrived. After that it was a doily sight, because an airway was established, and the mail was carried by plane. Suddenly an idea came to him. One morning with the first rays of light, he crept out of bed and dressed. Only one detail of his adventure bothered him. He must let his father know, but not too soon. He finally decided to slip a letter into the mail box. The postman did not come very early. Then he went down to the airport. The office man was in the big monoplane dusting the furniture. Come in and take a look, he said to Olaf. The boy climbed in and looked around. While they were talking, the telephone rang in the office. Hearing it, the office man excused himself, saying, I'll be right back. That was the moment Olaf had been waiting for. He secreted himself under one of the wide seats, remaining there until a jolt of the plane rolled him out into full view. The co-pilot saw him and asked him where he had come from. After he had told his story, they wrapped him in a heavy coat, and placed him in one of the armchairs. He had a window all his own out of which to look. Great gusts of wind began to strike the plane. Sometimes he was in his seat, but more often he was clinging to the arms of the chair. Then it began to storm. Rain and hail pelted against the wings, and the clouds were illumined with lightning. He was just wondering if he would ever see his home again when he felt the plane slow down, and in a short time they had landed in Chicago. By this time Olaf was beginning to feel woe-begone, and was glad when the co-pilot invited him to stay with him. After eating o sandwich, they started for home. A rather frightened little boy stepped into the big silver monoplane. To his surprise the wind had dropped and the air was calm. This time they flew so high that the fields looked like patch-work quilts, and a railroad train resembled a toy. Then they entered a misty twilight and the great ship slowly descended to earth. His father met him, and Olaf knew from the smile on his face that all was well. Then suddenly the great beacon light flashed across the field, and he knew the world was boundless. He sighed a little as this realization came over him, and clung a little more closely to his father. JEAN HOLCOMB JUST IN TUN . . . Mr. Bailey—Dean, I wish you wouldn't whistle while you work. Dean (Removing eye from the time clock)—But I’m not working. Jones—Well, how are you gettiing along with your new eight-room house? Smith—Fine!
