A substantial number of graduates of San Jose High went into the practice of law. Some have said their interest was prompted by discussions in high school classes.

They are, in order of graduation, Judge John D. Foley, '25, Judge Marshall Hall, Jan. '27, Judge Robert E. Cassin, Feb. '28, Judge Albert F. DeMarco, '31, and Judge Peter Anello, Jan. '36. A January, l927, classmate of Judge Hall, who also became a iudge, is Judge James Scoppettone, who won appointment as Santa Cruz municipal judge.

Jones, shown above as he appears today and in lower left as he appeared in the 1924 state legislative handbook, the California Blue Book, can be described as the dean of San Jose High's graduates who became elected officials. Indeed, he holds to this day the record of having served longer in the California State Senate - 22 years -than any man in the state's 113-year history. A central figure in the organization and promotion of the San Jose High School centennial observance, Senator Kas all former senators are always calledl Jones graduated in 1898. He studied law at Stanford and Stanford Law School and started his practice in San Jose in 1905 as a partner of Mr. Samuel Tompkins. He was elected to the State Senate in 1912, at the age of 29, when Hiram John- son was governor. His term continued under the governor- ship of Mr. William D. Stephens, Mr. Friend W. Richard- son, fellow San Jose High School graduate Mr. C. C. Young, Mr. James Rolph Jr., and Mr. Frank F. Merriam. Mr. Jones was born in Oskaloose, Iowa, and attended Hester Grammar School in San Jose before coming to San Jose High School. An ardent hiker and gardener, he is the father of two daughters. Even today he continues to practice law and serves on a governor's advisory com- mittee concerned with Agnews State Hospital. Many issues have had his at- tention over the years, perhaps chief among them is water. He was a champion of California's Central Valley Water Proiect and served the Santa Clara County Water Conservation District as attorney for more than 30 years. He has also been active in mat- ters of education, conservation, agriculture, respect for law, and honesty in business. He headed a State Senate committee on al- leged price fixing by cement in- terests. ln the business world he has has been director of many firms and in 1927 was president of the State League of Building and Loan Associations.
