-, --2- - - -l-he School Board MAGINE WHAT SCHOOL would be like if there were no Board of Education to plan all the improvements we have seen here at Santa Rosa High School in the last few years. And imagine how dull it would be to have to listen to morning reports day after day with never a word about a special holidayethanks to the board. This year, especially, the Board of Education, headed by Mr. Burke, has undertaken a long-proposed enlargement of the school. During the summer vacation, the agricul- tural shops will be constructed on our campus, and next year Santa Rosa's champion ag department will be appropriately housed. This structure, along with the recently-com- pleted music building, will make our school one of the most modern in the north bay area. With considerable pride, Dr. Jerome O. Cross, city superintendent, points out that all these improvements are made without any increase in the tax rate, Santa Rosa's schools boasting the lowest operating cost in the state. And that is indeed remarkable consider- ing the imposing appearance of Santa Rosa High School and the superior quality of edu- cation gained here, as attested this year by the championship of Santa Rosa students in so many academic and non-academic activities. Witli gratitude, therefore, we include our friends, the board members, in the admin- istrative section of our yearbook. Top Row-Dr. J e r 0 m e O Cross, City Superinrendenrg Mr James J.

s yy zlfnf -l-hjineipal AM WRITING THIS on the morning of May 10, 19-10. As dawn brightened the skies of Europe this morning, German bombers slid over Holland, Luxembourg and Belgium. Peace-loving citizens of neutral countries met violent deaths as they lay sleeping. These countries, caught in the grip of a great world catastrophe, are suffering through no fault of their own. Brave men are marching out to give their lives in hope- less defense of the land of their birth. The dawn brought no bombers to New York, or to Kansas, or to California. We have begun a day of ordinary routine, and peace. We are not called upon to march out to defend our country from a military invader, but we are as truly called upon for patri- otic service as though we lived in the invaded states of Europe. If we are to continue in stability and peace, we must overcome our natural apathetic attitude toward civic responsibilities, and prepare in mind and body and soul to support our American systemfa system which seeks to give equal opportunity and a decent living to all Americans. Active support of American principles is our only defense against conditions which will lead us to dictatorship or to subiugation by a foreign power. Only if you and I realize the extent of our blessings, and strive always to build our lives on the ideas and ideals of the founding fathers of our country, may we hope to insure for centuries to come the same growth and improvement which has marked America since the days of her troubled birth. -LLOYD K. WOOD.
