THE YEAR 1932 The Great Depression was in full force. The stock crashed on October 29, 1929. It was also the year most members of the Riverside High School class of 1950 were born. A brief look back reveals what our great country, and the world, looked like. As the year 1932 began Herbert Hoover was the President. He would lose the election in November to Franklin D. Roosevelt. President Roosevelt would serve as president during most of the formative years of our young lives. He served through the Great Depression and World War II. He died in 1945 and was succeeded by Harry S. Truman. Some National and International events, in the world of politics and sports: Adolph Hitler was coming to power, the atrocities he committed, war in Europe and WWII, were on the horizon. The Walt Disney Art School is created The tenth Summer Olympic Games open in Los Angeles New York Yankees win the World Series (so this is news) The Indianapolis 500 winner is Fred Frame with a speed of 104.144 MPH This is a peek into the year of 1932. There was certainly a great deal of exciting, powerful, and spectacular events during the year. Strictly from an unbiased point of view none of these events matched the birth of all those little babies that were destined to be the Class of 1950!
