photo from 1928 of an all-boys class. Note the sashes of office worn
by some students. As an alumnus explains: "The school was run like a
city, with a mayor, judges, district attorneys and public defenders. It
also included a commissioner of safety, fire and other city like
departments. The students totally ran the administration of justice at
the school with the supervision of the teachers." (See "anecdotes
section, 1934")
