SENIOR Memoiues February Class History otm Yeaas Aco, in February, 1931, three hundred freshmen-scrubs to you- made their debut at Stockton High. Of this group, almost two hundred survived till graduation. The class had no ambition to leave a trail of glory to inspire future stu- dents, but it came quite near to doing that very thing. In the sophomore year it won the inter-class swimming meet, took second in its junior year, and again won in its senior year. In its junior and senior years it also took the inter-class track meet. This record is a good example of the class spirit in ath- etics. This class was replete with famous per- sonages in every line of activity. Five dis- tinguished themselves in scholarship, Bessie Matsumoto, Alva Russell, Bill Rundle, Sam Abdallah and Beulah Penberthy. In art were Estell Payne, Jocelyn Camp, Nancy Greaves and Georgia Capps. Public speakers were Albert Lynde, our able student body president, who entered the regional Shake- spearian contest, Douglas Wilson, yell lead- er, and Bill Ohm. Charles Parsons, Babara Du Brutz and Robert Ghiorzo were prom- inent in journalism. In music Ralph Tred- way, Howard Stine, Ben Elliot, Harvey Mullen, Clydine Richardson, Jean Robert- son, Gertrude Turner and Clifton Kizer were leaders. Bill Rundle, Sam Abdullah, Nancy Greaves, Jocelyn Camp, Eva Nor- man, Alva Russell, Beulah Penberthy and Caroline Gill distinguished themselves in literature. Alfonso Alustiza, David John- ston, Wilbur Golithon, Archie Jett, Elton Martin, Allan Pearch, Ray Tatum, Tom Dixon, Lou Tsunekawa and Ray Carlisle found berths on the football squad. Verne Kinser and Russell Cook starred for the swimming team. Myron McCormick, Cecil Thirteen Brooks, Chester Fields and Fred F. Boyes were members of the greatest track team in the history of the school. Virginia Amann, Georgia Capps, Rita Folsom, Melita Paul and Annie Fields were prominent in girls' sports. Annely Uchida deserves special mention for her work in dancing. Class politics evolved the following as officers of the class: Earl Dahl, president, Vangie Pease, vice-president, and Alice Yel- land, secretary. Under their able leadership the senior prom was held and the senior play, A Lady Laughs, was presented. A tradition was broken when class day was put entirely into the hands of the seniors. Instead of the usual speeches, an entertain- ment was given in true radio broadcasting style. A short play was enacted before the mike, as were numerous other features, but what made the greatest hit with the audience was the impersonation of members of the faculty by the seniors. Commencement exercises were held in the Civic Memorial Auditorium, with A1- bert Lynde and Alva Russell as student speakers, the keynote of their speeches cele- brating the three hundredth anniversary of the founding of secondary schools. The cere- mony was finished only after 192 boys and girls had received their diplomas. Some joked, others laughed weakly, but all were impressed and saddened by the thought that the happiest years of their youth were ended when they grasped those hard earned diplo- mas. The school may forget the February class of 1935 as the years roll by, but as long as a single member lives he will never forget either the class or the school.
