A MESSAGE FROM THE FUTURE (Continued) Byron and I retumrd to his office and from there we went over to the Los Angeles Trust Company office, where Minnie Miller was employed as head stenographer. That night we all three went out to dinner, and after talking over our experiences we looked over the list of names of the class of ‘22. T here was only one whom I had not located and that was Vcrla Oare. Byron was glad to tell me that she was the Representative from Navada in Congress. He also was strong on emphasizing that she was on the Republican ticket. Well Mr. Cammage I am now back in my office in New York, and 1 think that you will be pleased with the report of the class of ’22 that I have given you. I wish that we could have a big reunion some time but I am afraid that is asking too much. Hoping to sec you soon and wishing you luck in your-campaign for Mayor of San Francisco, 1 remain your old student, Rim Alto Kkyks. JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY by K. Baukr Bernick Pillshury...........................President Joseph Babcock.........................Vice-President J ess a mink Lank..................Secretary- Treasurer When we entered High School in 1919 as “Froshies we had an enrollment of thirty-one members, but during that and our Sophomore years our ranks were diminished until now, as Juniors we have nineteen registered in our class. This number we sincerely hope to keep until graduation. Yc have always had the reputation of being one of the best classes in school. Our members have always taken an active part in Athletics and in Dramatics. Our talent is not lacking while our scholarship is far above the average. Perhaps one of the most interesting events of our Junior year is the preparation of our play ‘‘Miss Hobbs’ which is to be presented some time in March. The money realized from the play will be utilized for our “ Prom” which promises to be one of tin best ever given in W. IL S. With a successful Junior year we are confident that next year as Seniors the Class of 22 will be fully prepared to assume the responsibilities of leadership that come with the Senior Year.

A MESSAGE FROM THE FUTURE (Continued) Wallace suggested that wo go up and sec Mrs. Ralph Millers (nee Virginia Bly) style shop. Virginia had a very nice shop, although it was conducted entirely for women. While we were talking a delivery truck drove up nnd who should jump out hut Ralph himself. Ilis greetings to us were very cordial and friendly. If seemed to me that he looked a trifle “henpecked but of course I did not say anything. Virginia told me that I would find Ruth Goldsworthy at Hobson and that she was the Harvey House manager's wife. Well, somehow Arthur landed me safe in Hobson, where we stopped before going on into Winslow. It certainly surprised me to see how Hobson had grown. Arthur and I located Ruth with little trouble and she seemed very natural, except that. I should judge she weighed dost to two hundred pounds. In High School days she was quite slender and petite. That afternoon we came on into Winslow, which was in the heart of the Holbrook-Winslow Oil Fields. Winslow had surely grown, and now boasted a new million dollar High School. That was the first place I went. Desiring to see who the Superintendent was I entered the office and you could have knocked me over with a feather when I saw that Ufa La-Pradc was occupying that position. Ufa was as dignified as ever. The only good news she had was that Ulene McCoy was a strong agitator for the rights of women. It seemed as though all she had to tell was bad news, and 1 was deeply saddened when she told me that Elizabeth Mocklett had passed away quietly after an eventful career as State Nurse. Ufa said that she had been attacked by a severe illness after attending a sick family. Well I left the school feeling somewhat saddened and I wasn’t watching where I was going, and when I started across the street at Kingsley Avenue 1 was nearly knocked down by a street car. Just then a man rushed up to me and began talking about Fife Insurance so fast that it was several minutes before I realized that he was Francis Leonard. His mustache and beard had deceived me for a moment but when we recognized each other we went to the park for a little talk. We were discussing old times when I heard the soft strains of a band floating from the band stand. I was particularly attracted bv the motions its leader went through. I asked who lie was and Francis told me that he was Sidney Moore. I’ll admit that this was something of a shock but we went over to see Sidney after the concert and I was set back another notch when I saw how dignified he had become. His hair was almost two feet long but as curly as ever. Well, the three of us decided to take a ride towards Sunshine on the boulevard, in Sidney’s twelve cylinder Maxwell, and take a look at the fruit ranches in that district. The evening was cool, and as we neared Sunshine we approached a ranch, where. Francis said Alice Railev, now Mrs. Johnson, lived. e drove up to the ranch ami there was Alice, hoeing in their small garden. I was somewhat surprised when I saw Ross hanging up clothes, as I had always considered him a sort of liberty loving person. Alice prepared an excellent meal for us and we sat around the fire-place and talked until after ten then we returned to the city. Francis told me that Ryron Shields was the attorney for the Insurance Company for which Francis was the agent, in tin- Arizona district, and that he lived in Los Angeles. I resolved to go out to Los Angeles and see Byron. 'I'he next day I took the old Santc Fe, now run entirely by electricity, and arrived in Los Angeles the following day. I called on Byron at the address Francis had given me and found him to be a very busy man. Nevertheless he took the afternoon off and as wc had been interested in athletics in high school days we decided to go watch a championship Hit) yard dash. Byron discovered from a friend of his that Louie Sandoval was runinng under an assumed name that afternoon, as you well know lie was already considered a professional runner, and this was not a professional race. We went down to the runner's pit and there was Lottie, smiling as broadly as ever. He laughed in the same old way when we asked him whether lie was afraid of losing the race. The race was a walk-away for Louie. Afterwards we had quite a time getting back to the racing pits, as foot racing was getting to be quite a novelty. YY hen we finally succeeded in finding Louie again, I received another jolt upon finding Howard Creswell congratulating Louie upon his victory. Howard informed me that he was coaching the Football team of the University of Southern California that year and it wasn’t hard to remember him as a football player. ' ' ► M I ' .
