' fz. g,fg1'ifg5,..'-ff, -FIRST SPRING VACATION Spring Vacation! These words echoing through the halls of Poly High brought different thoughts to the students. To some it meant only a week of work thrown in among other weeks of work. To these it meant literally nothing. To another group it meant a week of rest around the house or perhaps a week in another city, or in the mountains, and even to these it had little more significance than a prolonged week-end-an absence of school. To a third group, however, it meant much more. That long awaited week had come. It was Friday afternoon and school was out. The next day they would throw most of their precious belongings into a suitcase, make a last attempt to borrow an extra five dollars from the old man, climb into some form of either two or four wheeled vehicles, and leave books, teachers, classrooms, hardship and toil for a week-seven precious days at the beach. When I they arrived, however, the hardest task was yet to be faced. Upon reaching that haven by the sea, Balboa, students of all descriptions proceeded to rent and occupy all available rooms, apartments, cottages, and houses. They wondered if they would be able to find a room, or be forced las others of unfortunate financial condition were forced to dol to sleep in a car or on the sands. Ilt has even been recorded that two students slept in a boatl. They finally found a room-and what a room! In peacetime such a room would have rented for fifty cents a night. Now, it was being sacrificed for the paltry sum of fifteen dollars a week-practically giving it away. How- ever, they were forced to be content, and Sam StiefeI's had to do. Let us move, however, to a more pleasant phase of life. During that brief period away from cares of home, the student wished to enjoy himself. He, there- fore, sought amusement and relaxation. In the daytime he may have found most of his friends on the beach at Corona Del Mar. There they spent the day lying in the sun and relaxing. Even a few ventured to try the water. In the evenings he might have found himself strolling around on the boardwalk or on the pier. Some ambitious students, however, entertained in their humble abodes or spent the evenings at other's. The remainder, enchanted by the sea air and spring, looked for dates and tried their luck, or skill, as the case may be, there. If time flies, it never flew faster than that precious week. Before they knew it, they were casting a last look at their recently adopted home, and in a short time were facing the stern reality of school all over again.
