GUY J. RONEY

   Guy J. Honey is devoting his talents to public service and his work as an
educator means much to South San Francisco. A native of Indiana, he was born
June 20, 1895, in Leisure, Tipton county, and completed a course in the high
school at Fairmount, that state. He attended a junior college in Fullerton,
Orange county, California, and next matriculated in Stanford University, from
which he was graduated with the class of 1917. Mr. Roney has always taken a keen
interest in athletic sports and while a student at the last named institution
was made captain of the soccer team, also becoming proficient in basketball. In
1918 he went to San Francisco as head of the physical education department of
the Mission high school, with which he was connected for three terms, and he
afterward filled a similar position in the Lowell high school of that city. He
took charge of the high school at Half Moon Bay in February, 1920, and since
1924 has been principal of the high school and superintendent of the secondary
schools of South San Francisco. He utilizes the most effective educational
methods and his work is marked by enthusiasm, intelligence and an infinite
capacity for taking pains.

   Mr. Roney was married to Miss Avis Irene Bash, also a native of the Hoosier
state, and they have become the parents of a son, Charles Edward, who was born
May 23, 1917. Mr. Roney is a trustee of the South San Francisco Library and a
member of the Exchange Club and Kappa Sigma, a college fraternity. He keeps in
close touch with the latest developments in the educational field and his
energy, ambition and ability insure his continued progress in the profession of
his choice. Mr. Roney is a young man of pleasing personality and his work has
been strongly commended by the citizens of South San Francisco, who are
thoroughly appreciative of his worth.
