Corona School Sparks Pride in Civic Growth

A Riverside Press feature praises Corona’s schools led by Raymond Cree and the district’s board. It notes a 35 000 dollar high school building with strong lighting and ventilation, planned additions, and a staff including W A Doran principal Olive Clark and Nina Beebe language teacher. The piece lauds outdoor play, campus ambitions, and a competent, well-credentialed faculty drawing talent from Riverside and beyond.

Reminiscence of Temescal Visit from 1880 Chicago party

In March 1880 a seven person Chicago party driving from Los Angeles to San Diego stayed ten days at a Temescal valley hotel near a sulphur spring. One survivor, John A. DeGraft of Los Angeles, revisited the area and Glen Ivy, recounting that the canyon's beauty remains unmatched. He recalls the old hotel site and searches for its remains.

Visitor praises Corona and seeks permanent home

The narrator recalls deer near the pioneer hotel and a landlady who halts a hunting plan citing pets. DeGratt, with Mr. Hume of Los Angeles, bought the old Compton orange grove and praises Corona’s Mesa as a top site. He plans to return, wondering why Corona wasn’t on the map thirty years ago after passing Rincon.
