Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated January 13, 1961 reads, "Youngsters at Sequoia Junior High School in Reseda have found an unusual way to use up student body funds earned in cookie and doughnut drives. They gave a $250 six-inch telescope to the school for use by the Science Club and other students. Admiring the instrument are, left to right, Judy Busch, 15, student body president; John Hopper, head of the science department; Miss Eileen Woodburn, principal, and Kenneth Wilcox, 12, president of the Science Club."
