Hi Sheila,
Most of the time when a CLASS OF_____, is referenced, the reference is to the year of graduation. Although this picture was taken in 1939, the picture is of the Class of 1944. I moved to California the next year and am a member of the Class of "44. Interestingly enough, I was just trading emails with a classmate a few days ago and he mentioned he had received a copy of this same picture from you. Good Stuff! Ala Bob Hope, "Thanks for the Memories." ...Don Callahan

I just emailed Sgt. Stephen Walpole, but he's on vacation until June 20. I last reported on a rapeRead More at the Los Gatos Lodge in March, but Sgt. Harris back then said the department's records unit need time to research just how many of these sex crimes had been reported to police. I'll check with the district.
