CLASS HISTORY September of 1959 marked the beginning of a school experience for the following pupils: Neva Nell Davenport, Charlotte Schulze, Joyce Bruce, Doris Sturm, Teddy Sayko, Velma Brundrette, Nyles Locke, and 'Anna Mae Hechler. In the second grade we felt priviledged to receive Vonciel Bailey into our class. Upon reaching the fifth grade Joyce Eernisse and Lois Westmore- land were added to our class role. The highlight of the sixth grade was the combining of Alta Loma and Arcadia classes. Also, Francis Chiles, Kermit Harris, jene Dyess, Carol Behringer, and Bill Bush joined our happy number. These pupils were awaiting us in the seventh grade: Farrer Gil- lioz, Donnie Harvey, A. J. Davidson, Nelda Brandon, jo Ann Gillioz, and Authur Autrey. At last we achieved the goal of the eighth grade at Santa Fe High School. The Freshman class welcomed john Jordon and Mike Callanan. In the Sophomore year, we added Walter Ferguson, H. M. Bodine and Ruby Bethune. Our junior year was especially interesting because we sponsored the annual carnival. The junior-Senior Banquet was presented at the Galves Hotel, sponsored by Mr. Z. M. Cooke. No new members were added. The Senior year arrived at last. The class greeted Rosalie Lomica and Esther Lagatt. Byrl Clayton was our sponsor. We succeeded in electing our candidate, Carol Behringer, queen. Words are inadequate to express the fun and satisfaction that is going with the activities--the rings, the alumni reception, the pictures, the trips and the parties. We are looking forward to the commencement just ahead.
