N Through the School Come with us, Riversider, while we go back over those pleasant scenes which -have meant so much to us during those four years of ceaseless activity at our good old East Side High School. Graduates, you have experienced all there was to experience, and so the scenes to follow mean much to you. juniors, next year you will reign supreme over these halls of Riverside. Sophof mores, the ranks of verdancy no longer can claim youg for you end your year of new found importance with the publication of this annual and advance to the point where you will truly appreciate the opportunities that your school is offering you. Freshmen, the hardest year is over. The battle is won, and you are real River' siders in the full sense of -the word, and this annual is published for your benefit as much as for that of the upperclassmen. Much of our now proposed trip about the school is yet to be' come a part of your daily life, and here is an opportunity to become acquainted. Who can be a student of Riverside who does not consider the very trees and landmarks of the park a part of the school campus? How many hungry appetites have been satisfied by jelly and peanut butter sandwiches eaten in the shadow of the old teaming tunnel? How many thirsty Riversiders have drunk the cool water of the s-pring in the park? The park has been a welcome beauty spot to every student. Now as we move on our tour of the school, we come in sigiht of the athletic field with the track boys faithfully training for that meet next Saturday. Remember those cheers and yells the day we beat Lincoln for the football champion' ship? Remember that pouring rain at the West game three years ago when the mud was three feet deep at the south side stadium? Remember the crossfcountry boys loping along through the ravines of Lake Park in the State C.C.C. Meet? The freshmen surely have not forgotten those games of kickball on the field. They have not forgotten those last minute rushes for the locker room in a futile attempt to get dressed and to class on time. And so one thing recalls an' other. But let us proceed through the book and resume our tour a bit later. CContinued un Page 101
