S E A I 1! E E . E (Class IStslury Fifty-one wide-eyed and frightened Freshmen, the majority of whom now belong to the tenth class to be graduated from Seaside l n- ion High, entered this institution in September, 1923. Under the lead¬ ership of Lester Raw, with Mr. Beebe as advisor, the class took an ac¬ tive part in student body activities. A barn dance given in the gym¬ nasium by the Freshmen was one of the big social events ot the year. Three members of the boys’ basketball team, and one member of the girls’ basketball team were from the Freshmen class. At the beginning of the Sophomore year the class had only 45 members, but nevertheless they still had as much pep as ever. Charles Cartwright was elected president, and Mr. Love was chosen as class advisor. One member of the class was in the Senior play, five were on the football team, two were on the basketball team, four were on the baseball team, and one member of the debate team was selected from the Sophomores. The Junior year, with Mr. Love again acting asadvisor, and with Charles Cartwright re-elected as president was a busy one. The Jun¬ ior play, “Turn to the Right” was successfully presented, and an ac¬ tive part was taken in the Historical Pageant and May Fete. The Jun¬ ior-Senior Prom was given in the new gymnasium, contrary to the pre¬ cedent f having it at the Seas'de Hotel. The annual Junior-Senior picnic at Hug Point was the biggest success of the year. Long will it be remembered! Three members of the debate team belong to this class. Now there are only thirty members left in the class of ’26. How¬ ever, they have been peppy bunch, taking part in all student body un¬ dertakings. Charles Cartwright was again re-elected president of the class. Co-operation on the part of the students and the assistance of their advisor, Miss Lois Fendall, enabled the class to win the holiday for having the best roll room. Even though there have been faults, the class as a whole has tried to do its best for the school, and is only hoping that the classes to fol¬ low will do likewise.

Dear Loris: I know you are anxious to hear all the news of our reunion as I won’t see you for a month. I am writing you a brief outline. The de¬ tails can be told later. Needless to say, the meeting was a success. The plans were care¬ fully laid and everything went beautifully. It was wonderful to see so many of the old faces again. There were many strange ones, too, because the alumni of the last few years were, of course, unknown to most of us. The class of 1926 was well represented, with both old and “new members.” The number has increased quite a bit, as th en¬ closed snaps will show. Every class had a special session for its members and their fam¬ ilies. Ours was held at Charles Smith’s summer home. It was “some meeting!” Charles Cartwright, our former president, presided as was proper. He had difficulty in bringing the meting to order for everyone was chattering like monkeys. He gave the welcome address and told us that it was through Dewey Baker’s and Charles Smith’s ef¬ forts that the alumni reunion was held, and then ho asked Dewey to tell us more about it. Dewey said that he was writing o book which he intended to call “High School Days.” It occurred to him that if he could get a group of his classmates together and talk over old times he would perhaps £0
