My Mother's West High School Yearbooks

 As the Kroeber's were emptying their old garage in order to build the new one, they found my Mother's old West High School yearbooks - 1937 - 1938.  It was fun to look at them and see the things her friends would write to  her.

This was a fun feature - and I wanted to ask her - who was Elton?  Looks like her high school boyfriend - at least he is good looking!  But Glenn Smith was way better!!

Mother was a dancer!  with pretty legs who passed them on to all her daughters, and granddaughters!

Vivian Poole was the star of the high school play her senior year - It was a play called Patsy and several in the yearbook told her she was the perfect - Patsy!  I should look it up and read it.

The whole play group.  There were three acts - she Mom memorized a lot of lines.  She always helped us to memorize our talks - one line, two lines, three lines at a time!!

I guess this is another dance costume - kind of strange for school! 

I've always thought my Mother was the prettiest one around!

Her Senior Picture - and she was President of the West Associated Girls Club - I'm guessing!  

The yearbooks - high school is a fun time of life.  I have one book from South High School - my Dad's - 1936.  He was a Junior and there were not as many pictures of him as Mom!

Glenn Smith - many people signing his yearbook used the word 'swell' - I think he was swell also!

Dad joined ROTC and said one reason was to have another shirt to wear to school! He is the good looking one at the far left!  

Their yearbook activities was several pages like this!
