Lassen High School Opens
September 2, 1940


Lassen High School began the fall semester Tuesday with an enrollment of 442, or 25 more than the peak of last year.

On the faculty are eight new members, including Roy Cochrane, recently resigned from Warner Brothers’ motion picture studio in Hollywood, where he had charge of making sets for many pictures now showing in California and Nevada, including “The Sea Hawk,” “Fighting 36th” and “Elisabeth and Essex.”

Cochrane is to have charge of the newly organized carpentering class, which will do the main structural work on a new $20,000 shop building designed by Dean & Dean, architects.
