RIVIERA NEWS NOTES
FROM THE SCHOOLS
Senior Class Organization
The Seniors of the Riviera High
School met September 15th and or-
ganized themselves into a class. The
dass officers are: Euna Gardner,
president; Doris Titsworth, secretary
and treasurer; Bessie Denham, vice-
president. Mrs. P. S. Garner was ap
pointed sponsor, and Professor Gar-
ner and Miss Tomlinson were appoint-
ed advisors. Several committees were
appointed, namely, the (lower and
color committee program, and enter-
tainment and song committee. The
Shasta Daisy was chosen as the class
(lower, while white and gold were
selected as the class colors. The mot-
to: “Still Climbing, Though the Rocks
Be Rugged,” was chosen by the class
when they were in the eighth grade,
and has been carried on to the 10th.
The Senior Class has ten members
enrolled. They are Pearl McKimm,
Katherine Swain, Alma Louise Moses,
Bessie Denham, Elsa Nenbauer, Opal
McClanahnn, Euna Gardner, Doris
Titsworth, Edgell Gates.
Class Rings Selected
One day last week. Mr. Meek, jewel-
er in Kingsville, visited this school
where he exhibited class rings to the
Senior Class. The class selected a very
beautiful gold ring of artistic design
to he engraved with the name of the
school and the date. Everyone who
has seen the sample believe the class
displayed good judgment in the selec-
tion of their class ring. The rings will
not he delivered for some time, hut
the Seniors are anticipating their ar-
rival with pleasure.
Seniors Entertain
The first entertainment of the
school term was held Friday night,
September 24th when the Senior Cluss
entertained their friends and the fa-
culty members with a delightful swim-
ming party and picnic at tin- Charley
Bobbins lake. Each member of the fa
culty and Senior and Sophomore
classes were privileged to invite a
friend. The party began at seven
o'clock, swimming furnishing amuse-
ment for thirty minutes, after which
the Dutch treat supper was spread
and held the attention of the merry-
makers until nine o’clock, when every
one, believing in the famous saying,
“Early to be and early to rise” went
to their respective homes. They’re
1927 Seniors! The party was much
enjoyed by everyone present.
Eighth Grade Class Organized
The Seniors aren’t the only live
wires in our high school; the other
classes have already shown their en-
thusiasm for organized bodies of their
class members. The following report
of Ihe organization of the Eighth
grade class was recently handed in.
The Eighth grade organized their
class on September 24th with the fol-
lowing officers: President, Olivia Pier-
son; secretary-treasurer, Edna Smith;
reporter, Ruby Lee Hester; Sponsor
Mrs. Kaufer; advisors. Miss Cockrill
and Professor Garnet.
Committee: Motto: Ovil Nanny,
Alice Denham and Jack Ray; Colors
and Flower, Carl Bolting, George Blue.
Entertainment. Edna Smith, Austin
Gates, Marcus May.
It is rumored that the 9th grade or
igani/.'-d tin ir class sometime last week
I but nothing was handed the reporter
j for them.
'I'lie Boys’ Glee Club will be. orgnniz-
some time this week, and work will
] begin at once.
The Seniors have dropped a hint
that they are contemplating preparing
a program to lie given at the Com-
munity House in the near future. The
interesting feature about the enter-
tainment will be the absence of any-
one to relieve you of your small
change at the door. In other words,
these good natured Seniors promise
something for nothing a free enter-
tainment. Watch them for future an-
iiounc'Tnents of this interesting event.
