YOU DON'T KNOW HHS UNTIL YOU READ THIS BOOK!

I thought I knew everything about Hollywood High until I read this book. It not only brought back many fine memories of my days there (1952 to 1955) but opened my eyes to the wonderful history this school has. It also brought me up-to-date on what happened after I left. The book covers the years 1903 through 1986.

The Stars Shine Bright in Hollywood.

I am proud to say I was a student at Hwd High, class of W'67. There are facts in this book that I didn't know even though I lived in Hollywood all my teenage life. I know there are many other alumni that would be interested in this book. I think the publishers should come out with a second printing. "Hail To Thee Our Alma Mater". Hail Shieks and who could forget the QUAD and the Sticky Buns from the HASH Lines. My class was the last to have a dress code of dresses. NO PANTS. Thanks and please try to find another copy for me, My copy has been passed around alot. Thanks.Maxine

BOW-BOW SKI WA-TEN TA-TIN TA-LA HASSSSSSSS

A must for all serious HHS reunion junkies....but Blumenthal got the picture wrong on the great tree slaughter that occurred circa 1958....several trees were cut down (saw 'em myself one foggy morning upon arriving at school), not just one, so I won't mention the one famous person movie star who Blumenthal attributed this "prank" too. I am ordering several copies as gifts to my reunion junkie classmates. Bill Larson, HHS '59

Great book

This is a great story. Does anybody know the email address of the author John Blumenthal? I want to get in touch with him. Thanks for a great book.

For all former "Sheiks", this is MUST reading.

It's unfortunate that students weren't taught the proud history of Hollywood High School while attending this great school. This was fascinating reading. I've always "bragged" about being a graduate of HHS. I guess I'll just have to brag more now.
