The town was torn by section feelings at this time, during the height of the Civil War, City Historian Arbuckle recounts today. Some residents were for the South and others were for the North. The school bond issue provided an added chance for divisiveness to express itself. Some religious groups were against it. The Rev. Mr. Hamilton's Presbyterian flock, of course, supported him and the bond proposal. Feelings on many issues, such as politics, were so high that the local paper, The Tribune, violently anti-administration and owned by Mr. George O'Doherty, had been suppressed, for the second time, in September of l863. This was by order of Brig. Gen. George Wright, Pacific commandant of President Abraham Lincoln's Union forces. The Tribune ceased publication on Sept. ll and was sold to Mr. Francis B. Murdoch, who issued it under the name, The San Jose Patriot, starting on Sept. lo. We have never seen so much interest manifested in an election as was exhibited on Monday lMarch 7, l864D, Mr. Murdoch editorialized in the Patriot of Wednesday, March 9. Little boys distributed election literature and ladies urged their husbands to support it, he continued. Catholic and secession groups opposed the bond issue, he reported. Of the 5lO votes cast, there were 295 for and 2l5 against, a majority of 80. I6 a...... . . 4... -

my Mr. Bowen pitched in at once to make a success of his new duties. He soon came to the attention of the area's teachers, and, at the September, 1863, convention of the Bay Counties' Teachers Institute in San Jose, he was elect- ed assistant secretary ot that organization, the Sept. 16 Patriot reported. Then commenced a knock-'em-down, drag-'em out election campaign to pass a 525,000 bond issue to provide adequate school facilities forthe 1,000 school-age children the Rev. Mr. Hamilton said there were at the time. Current school rooms could house only 250, he lamented. On Dec. 1, 1863, clerk Moody wrote in the ornately- lettered school board minutes, lt was moved and carried that a committee of tour be appointed to memorialize the Legislature to pass an act allowing the City to issue bonds not to exceed 525,000 for the purpose. of erecting a school house, subiect to a vote ot the people in accordance with the City Charterf: Mr. Moody, Dr. Cobb, Mr. Quinby, and Mr. Pomeroy comprised the committee. This was the entrance to the administration wing of the 1908 campus. The wooden sign now stands adjacent to Bulldog Boulevard facing 74111 'Street on the present campus, which opened in 1952. --.ix K S CLASS OF 1911 JUNE Anderson, Georgia Antrim, Pearl Austin, Florence Atkinson, Roland Argall, Frank Ball, Lillian Ball, Hazel Beeks, Hazel Bell, Alice Bisson, Laura Bland, Reba Blomdahl, Meta Blois, Camelia Blum, Marguerite Bloom, Paul Bogalsky, Dolores Burns, Eugenia Burk, Clara Buzzo, Mariory Brown.

Praising the passage of the bonds as our glorious victory, Mr. Murdoch explained that the people had okayed a central school edifice for the use of the high school. This provides concrete evidence of the campaign the Rev. Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Bowen had been waging for recognition of an advanced school. The minister had spoken energetically and enthusiastically during the winter campaign. The new school, which was not destined to go into use until Jan. l, 1868, would bring together advanced students from all over the township, not merely from District l or District 2. Steps toward formalizing the high school program had been taken at the board meeting which convened at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 22, l863. Mr. Bowen was obviously already coaching his brighter students in work of more difficulty, apparently with the encouragement of the board presi- dent, but some official authorization was needed. Thus it was that the following resolution was penned by Mr. Moody: Resolved that we establish a graded school. The resolution was adopted and it was moved that a suitable room for the grammar department be rented. The following Wednesday, Dec. 30, 1863, Mr. Quinby reported a room could be rented on the upper floor of Mr. Peck's brick building for S20 per month. Mr. Miles, who was present at the meeting, said he'd be happy to make the Rankin Double Desk for 55.50 each, and a motion authorized hiring him to make 30 at that rate for our grammar school. Mr. Quinby was named to prepare the room for the advanced students.
